AC/DC - Bonfire (this has some good stuff on it and I got it for a cheap price but holy fuck I can spot a shoddy box set when I see one, pure cash in, no love put into this thing at all.)

I thought it wasn't bad at all,certainly compared to some box sets. The "Volts" cd could have had more (Cold Hearted Man,Carry Me Home,Fling Thing etc) but Atlantic Studios and the Paris gig are great. But even bootlegs don't turn up much in the way of unreleased stuff.

Bonfire isn't bad but I felt a bit let down.

Then I got this triple CD set in Borderline

A good amount of that is Johnson era and/or live. And some is possibly poor quality?

I mean the whole package is half done. The booklet reads badly and doesn't slot in anywhere. The layout is terrible. Volts contains 2 bog standard album tracks. The Paris gig was hardly an amazing find. And then the 5th disc is just Back In Black. Just seems like a tarted up release of the Atlantic gig.

Not read the book since I bought it. But it sits in place fine. Did the one you got have the poster,sticker,pic and tattoo?

I read at the time there was aversion that did not have Back In Black,but I never seen it anywhere. I would have prefered that.

Live At Atlantic Studios is my favourite AC/DC recording.

The current version of Bonfire is badly packaged. The glue is coming off my CD trays.

My mate has a box with just four CDs (no Back in Black). All the discs are in jewel cases and there's a keyring, sticker etc.

The quality of Ultimate Volts is very clear. Proper CDs not CDRs.

Did anyone get Backtracks?

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

Too heavy on the Johnson era for me. Most of the stuff I'd have wanted it for I Already have on something or other.

Having said all that, the actual reason I bought Bonfire was for back in black. Haven't had access copy of that since I left home in '92 and needed it. The box was marked down and wasn't much dearer than a new cd of BIB. Still though, I have a right to bitch about the thing.
