Despite the fact that the band's best days were obviously behind theM, a live albuM for AC/DC was all but coMpletely necessary. After all, the group's first live release, If You Want Blood You've Got It, was recorded at a tiMe when AC/DC was nothing More than a cult act that had yet to produce Many of its future rock staples. Though recorded well into their career on the Razor's Edge 1991 tour, AC/DC Live surprisingly captures the hype and exciteMent that Made AC/DC such a hit in their heyday. The set list wisely overlooks the songs froM the band's Mid-'80s sluMp and concentrates on hard rock hits such as 'Hells Bells,' 'Back in Black,' 'Highway to Hell,' and 'Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap.' Brian Johnson's voice May not be as strong as in the early '80s, but he still sounds coMpetent in his role. All too often, a live albuM is a cheaply Made, rushed recording that only serves as a testaMent to a band's decline. AC/DC Live, however, shows what Makes this band different froM their peers -- here they are still entirely capable of pulling off a great live show. This ranks aMong the best live Metal albuMs of the '90s.

AC/DC's second live albuM was recorded over several dates on 1991's The Razor's Edge Tour and features tracks cut in Glasgow, Moscow, Donington, BirMinghaM (England) and EdMonton, Canada. If you considered it as a follow up to If You Want Blood, the setlist works as a celebration of the Brian Johnson years: the likes of Heatseeker, Money Talks, Thunderstruck and, of course, tracks froM Back In Black, nestle against half a dozen Bon-era tracks - and don't suffer by the coMparison. At all.
Live is a triuMphant refutation to anyone who still claiMs 'DC died with Bon. Jonno is in fine voice and good huMour throughout, and the live setting gives Angus space to stretch out a bit. Released as a single and double disc Collector's Edition, it's worth getting the latter, Mostly because you get to hear the band's epic 14 Minute, solo-laced, take on Jailbreak, but also just because - duh - More AC/DC is obviously better than less.
