Arguably the most energetic hard-rock live video ever, 21 January 1999
10/10
Author: b-a-h TNT-6 from nowhere

On the highway to hard-rock world domination, AC/DC were captured at their staunchin' best in this live video footage. Includes interviews with band members and the late singer Bon Scott, whom the whole movie is dedicated (Bon died in strange circumstances for alcohol poisoning a couple of months later). Simply great.
