And after all this time they're as boring and predictable as ever! Great work, Angus!

This has to be one of the greatest rock albums of all time, and for me AC/DC`s second best after the previous "Powerage".The production on this is excellent, recently purchased this on cd as my vinyl copy is on its last legs.Great to hear it again, where do you start,all great tunes but stand out for me are,Highway to hell,walk all over you,If you want blood and touch to much.
I was lucky enough to see this tour and went two nights running at Manchester Apollo,awesome.Have a great memory of being at the Led Zep Knebworth gig in 79 and they played this album in full over the pa system.
Of course this was Bon Scott`s last album and he was/is sadly missed.After this album came their biggest selling album"Back in Black", another great solid record but for me the Bon Scott era was in another league. If you have been on another planet or have just discovered AC/DC, buy this album,"Powerage", "Let there be rock", and as for AC/DC phrase 2, buy "Back in Black" and then jump forward to the present and buy the new album "Black Ice",which for me is the best vocal display by Brian Johnson has ever put on any of his previous records since "Back in black". If he`d sang more like this earlier I would not have got bored with them as I did from 1983 untill 2001, when "Stiff upper lip" restored some pride.
Anyhow back to "Highway to Hell", its brill, go and buy it,wack the volume up and enjoy.

Bought the album after being swept away on hearing Louise on the radio one night and fell in love with the beautiful stripped back melancholy of this magnificent cover. As with Richard Hawley, if you're not a big fan of country, some tracks will leave you a little cold, but I promise you will never get bored of settling back into the dramatic, wall of sound bombasity of Danger is a Woman in Love or Born to Cry or lose yourself in the wistful sadness of Louise or Paradise Square.

Agree with most of the reviews listed. If, like me, you went to Uni in the early 90's and have been a fan of that genre ever since you'll have almost grown up with Nick Bracegirdle's music and all the myriad offferings it inspired and spawned

From the days of saltwater to the excellent maddening crowds CD, his music has always evolved, always delivered and always impressed

Keep it up for another 10 years Nick ..

This could be any reasonably competent male voice choir. I WAS VERY DIASAPPOINTED WITH IT. It did not have the depth and resonance and passion of a 'proper' Welsh male voice choir like Treorchy.
It seems like a sanitised version.
Nowhere near good enough!!!

Not so much a review - just wondering if anyone else's set is missing the fifth disc containing additional music and interviews? Bizarrely, there doesn't appear to be room in the outer cardboard box to contain a fifth disc! Unless it's supposed to be tucked inside the fourth disc's individual packaging - in which case, where's the track listing?
VERY frustrating! I shall, of course, be returning it and hope to receive a COMPLETE replacement...!

I admit to being a great fan of Freddie and the boys, so I was a bit funny about Roger and Brian restarting something called Queen, but on the other hand I am really pleased that they decided to go back to touring.

This isn't "old" Queen in any real sense. Several of the tracks are naff to the point of being criminal (which "old" Queen album doesn't have a couple of those?). Its clear that the creative and writing talent has definitely moved on - Freddie and John wrote nearly all the big Queen hits and it shows. And you feel that Brian's hard rock influence has been watered down a little too much. Given the choice of more of this or a Brian May solo effort, I would probably pick Brian every time.

But after all that, if you take out the crud, this is a listenable and entertaining outing, and will stay on my mp3 player for some time.

I am gutted cos I have lost one of the CDs in this amazing double album. Even with one CD is is TOPS. My favorites are Lemar singing the Darkness Track, and James Blunt singing Lemar..... as I said Pure Gold!

the best Xmas cd on the market at present - but not as good as the red cover Best Christmas Album in the World Ever which came out in 1995ish. To be fair this one has virtually everything but misses several key tracks - Shakin Steven's Merry Christmas Everyone, The Pretenders 2000 Mile and the Wham version of Last Christmas. It would be in bad taste for me to complain that theres no Rock and Roll Christmas by Gary Glitter but there you go. Other than these exceptions it has everything.
