AC/DC LIVE AT DONNINGTON (2007)

DAVID MALLET

Plot

The mighty 'dc trawl through their back catalogue of reprehensible rock before an enormous crowd. The set features a high quota of classic Bon Scott period material for those of us who remember them back in the day. The performance matches the majesty of their 'basic boogie played VERY loud' approach with attitude, props and theatrics that leave one wondering if the taste police are being payed off in order to keep the band on the road. There's more than a whiff of the Spinal Taps about them, and a grown man shamelessly stampeding about the stage in a school uniform invites much derision, but Angus Young's riffing over a solid backbeat is still undeniably appealing. Or perhaps that's just me...
