No Bull - No Sound
This 1996 concert from Madrid in itself was spectacular. I have listened to AC/DC for for over 20 years, and I was impressed by the energy this band displays on stage. Angus Young runs close to a marathon without ever missing a note. The mid-section, Rhythmm Guitarist Malcom Young and Bass Player Cliff Williams lay down an un-ending wall of Thunder during the 20 numbers the band plays in this concert. The energy of Phil Rudd during "Dog Eat Dog" is astounding, he lays down a powerful consistent beat for what must seem like hours to him. I could feel my shoulder starting to ache just tapping out the beat on my lap!

However, and there is always a however, I found the Sound Quality during the concert portion of this DVD to be lacking. I have Surround Sound, so I had fairly high expectations when I plugged this DVD into my player. Although the sound is in Dolby Digital 5.1 I found the background noise a little much. When you move up a chapter and play the video, the sound is excellent, so perhaps I am asking to much, but I was disappointed in the quuality of the DVD sound during the concert itself.

This DVD also has the "Making of Hard as a Rock", which I found interesting, although a little more technical information would have been nice. If you are a fan of AC/DC like myself, it is certainly worth purchasing, my only complaint is the sound.

True to life but bad sound.
I think the title says it all- No Bull. It appears that the production studio did nothing to "gloss up" the sound of this concert. That is the good and the bad of it. Just like any rock band they hit sour notes but in this case they left them in the final cut! I think shows a lot of integrity but unfortunately it is not that fun to listen to when you have an elaborate surround sound system. In the end it sounds pretty much like the actual concert but minus the bass. Live at the Donnington is definately more fun to listen to.

The Boys Are Back In Town
They might be a little older, and they might be going grey or loosing her, but there still belting out the loudest hard rocking sounds youve ever heard!

The show is great, a live perfromance from the Plaza Del Toros stadium in Spain... the thing missing tho is the footage of BEavis And Butthead that played before the show started.... but it kicks off from there with the craine reveing up and swinging around to knock down a wall built up on the stage, and then Angus runs out and the show begins! This is a show well worth having on DVD or VHS! It is no disapointment! and features a selection of there best work over the years, but theres never enough time to put every song onto a disc, because every AC/DC songs is great! but this selection of new and old is great!

Also comes with a feature of the making of the Hard As A Rock Video Clip with a bit of behind the scene stuff, and of corse the video clip to "Hard As A Rock"!

Only downfall is whoever did the subtitles in English really screwed up a few of the lyrics! Whats beeing said, was not what was written!
