AC/DC: Live at Donington: Directed by David Mallet. With AC/DC, Angus Young, Malcolm Young, Brian Johnson. Filmed coverage of legendary Australian band AC/DC’s third headlining show at the “Monsters of Rock” festival in Castle Donington, UK.

“Although nearly half a million fans turned out at Downsview in Toronto in 2003 to see the headlining act — The Rolling Stones — all anyone talked about after the show was AC/DC, and how they pretty much blew all the other acts off the stage. Thatu0026#39;s got to tell you SOMETHING, and this DVD goes a long way toward explaining why that was so: it certainly shows the Thunder From Down Under at their hard-rocking best. Angus Young is (as always) a treat to watch. Not only is his guitar technique almost supernaturally skillful, his whole u0026quot;slightly whackou0026quot; schick (e.g. his u0026quot;seizureu0026quot; during that extended guitar solo) is just so entertaining! And the sound… ohmygoodness. You crank up the Dolby 5.1 on a good sound system and youu0026#39;ll FEEL it in your gut, thatu0026#39;s a personal guarantee. Oh yes, this is the way concerts SHOULD be recorded. (And isnu0026#39;t it great they performed Jailbreak? Thatu0026#39;s a kick-ass AC/DC classic that doesnu0026#39;t get anywhere NEAR enough air-play, in my opinion.) I think my only complaint about this concert is that a lot of Brian Johnsonu0026#39;s between-song banter seems to me to be awfully forced and insincere. But hey, a guy that can sing like that doesnu0026#39;t NEED to do a lot of talking…”
