5 years after most of these reviews and STILL no DVD!!
"Back in Black" not withstanding, AC/DC have never even come close to equaling what they produced when Bon Scott was alive. And from their beginning to the final Scott album, the classic "Highway to Hell", they just seemed to get better and better! And here we have an entire concert from that tour, filmed in Paris, which shows them at their absolute peak and includes backstage and interview documentary footage!And, on top of all that, it's quite simply one of the GREATEST Rock and Roll concert films ever made...so WHERE'S THE DVD?!?!? I thought this would be one of the first things they released when DVDs became mainstream, after all, it didn't take long for it to appear on stereo hi-fi VHS in the mid-1980s and I even saw it for rent several times. But to this day, the VHS is all we have!! And that simple fact is one of the great mysteries of the modern media rock era!I captured and burned this on a DVD-R myself but, as anyone who has ever done that knows, it's a little grainy and stereo is the only audio option so the lack of a re-mastered professional release with 5.1 or 6.1 sound is nothing short of unacceptable! (At least I was able to re-mix it while capturing it so it sounds a little better). And, sorry, "Family Jewels" comes close but, if you're happy with that, you've never seen "Let There Be Rock"!!The song list is below and, yes, each song is featured in its entirety, this isn't one of those pieces of garbage that only show snippets of songs before going back to the documentary footage.Bottom line: DVD or no DVD, if you like Rock and still own a VCR there is NO EXCUSE for not already owning this tape. Especially since good used copies are widely available for under $10 including shipping!Live WireShot Down In FlamesHell Ain't a Bad Place to BeSin CityBad Boy BoogieThe JackHighway to HellGirl's Got RhythmHigh VoltageWhole Lotta RosieRockerLet There Be Rock

The Best AC/DC performance on film.
Simple If YOU Like ROCK 'n' ROLL you MUST OWN THIS FILM if its just the DVD/Blue Ray disk, IF YOUR a AHCA/DACA fan This is Pay Dirt. # 'erd Metal Box stamped logo, speakers, Angus on the tweeter is perfect for a rubbing. The tin stash box is worth the price by it's self being #'erd...... plus a color booklet a set of 3x5 photos and a Angus Gtr. Pick..... sweet!!! The movie and it was a MOVIE in theaters in 1980. It was available on VHS till 1984? But didn't have the voice over the DVD has in the inro ; it's a Show in Paris; the 2nd show that day!! And BON had larangytist!!! But still at the TOP of their game, soon after BON Scott Passed. With a few interviews and some Cool vignette's interspersed thru out the flim. ANGUS IS OFF THE CHAIN!!!!!! ROCKER Tears the roof off!!! All with no BELL, Canons, Inflated balloons... No props at all but what a SHOW!!!! At the end of DVD you got artist, critics, managers.....With some great insight on "THE WORLDS GREATEST ROCK'N'ROLL BAND". and if you still think the Stones or any other band for that matter is/are the best R'n'R band on the planet, just watch this movie! AC/DC ain't promoting this Crown Jewel on their web site. I don't know why??? It should have been in the BON FIRE box set. only the audio was included. This was put out by Warner Bro's maybe thats why? But what ever the case. You can get it on DVD/Blue Ray, Trust me THIS IS THE REAL DEAL FOLKS!!! GET IT HOT! THE BEST AC/DC SHOW I EVER SAW If your look'n to get the new<Live at River Plate> "Black Ice Tour" GET THIS FIRST get River Plate later. For Those About To Rock I Salute You.

I`m a Rocker
Now this is it folks, this is AC/DC at full throttle with nothing to loose,, a band that grew up in the pubs of australia and were educated on the touring roads to gigs to show off their awsome talent...AC/DC,,, is just that a form of rockin power, this is a great concert i owned it when it was first released on vhs and i have just now ordered a blu Ray copy for my collection of AC/DC what a ride this show really is, it is loud and fast and brilliantly executed BON sings his soul out he loved the wild rythum and fast guitars of the young brothers the relentless rock beat of the great phil rudd and the initive and creativity that cliff had bought to the band... Destiny ... They sound magnificent the interviews are great it is nice to see them and respect them as guys that would come over and watch the footy with you in the garage.I cant speak of how great they actually are at this time in their carrer just buy it and watch it..AC/DC have just followed up with a new album and another world that took 18 months 30 years after this video i love the band they are the best i hope they never stop we love you all Bon,Brian,Angus,Malcolm,Cliff,Markme and my mates watched this tape, worshipped it, and drank hard to it, until it could never be watched again, AC/DC you gave us somthing to dothankyou
