Are You Ready For A Good Time..?
Advantages: Loud, bad and one of the last great albums of rock. Disadvantages: Commericalism was knocking on the door and the light of rebellion was starting to die out..
From the sun kissed beaches of Oz, the Scottish bums turned surfer dudes returned to London to explode into our brains with the sweaty smell of good old rock and roll. From one loud album after another, AC/DC has become, undoubtedly, the Gods of British rock.
Yet, after the death of wild vocalist Bon Scott in February 1980, there we many of us who thought that the end was nigh for the masters of rock. Acquiring the forty a day tones of Brain Johnson, ... ...new voice. With mop of fuzzy hair sprouting from under a flat cap, AC/DC found the image that they had, all this time represented - long haul truckers.
From the days of Bon Scot, they had developed a style which when fans were drawn in, they became fans for life, although by the time the mid Eighties rolled around, it was the sons and daughters of the original followers who found the 'school boy stage outfit' fitted like a glove. For anyone who ...

I'll Sleep When I'm Dead
Advantages: Great tracks, no filler Disadvantages: None
...tracklist: ~ I Believe Keep The Faith I'll Sleep When I'm Dead In These Arms Bed Of Roses If I Was Your Mother Dry County Woman In Love Fear I Want You Blame It On The Love Of Rock & Roll Little Bit Of Soul Save A Prayer Whilst I like every track on the album, the stand-out track in my opinion is the epic 10 minute 'Dry County', which is in an absolute classic track, featuring an amazing guitar solo from Richie Sambora. It tells a story of survival ... ...popularity of 'Grunge'. They toured 38 countries performing to sell-out crowds to promote the album. Bon Jovi were back and bigger than ever!

There Goes My Hero, He's Ordinary
Advantages: Some amazing songs Disadvantages: SOme weak songs
...one. Track 19: Colour and the Shape
Screeching describes this track to a T, it's not good, it's not pleasant to listen to and it's just a damn mess. My Opinion
Now that was a weird review I have to say, did I enjoy writing it? The answer is yes, it's nice to write about a band I feel quite passionate about I have to say, I will do a special section below on someone who I thought was one of the greatest singers and musicians in the world, ... ...alternative rock. The Colour and the Shape vs. Extra Tracks
I got the 10th Anniversary special with extra tracks of Amazon for just under £5 however if you want to get the one without the extra tracks like I would suggest you do, you are looking to pay about £2 more than the more recent release. I would however buy the album without the extra tracks on, I'm sure you can get it cheap off EBay because the extra tracks are just awful. Should ...

Not all Straits
Advantages: some great tracks, excellent guitar work Disadvantages: some bad tracks
...in its lyrics. ON EVERY STREET - A surprizingly mellow number revolving around a theme. One of the better tracks. WHEN IT COMES TO YOU - It's basically a ballad, but not Mark Knopfler mixes it up a bit. FADE TO BLACK - This track is a bit jazzy. Some great guitar playing in this by Mr Knopfler. THE BUG - A very fast rock n' roll track that is my favourite on the album. It sounds great no matter how you're feeling. YOU AND YOUR FRIEND - This track ... ...vocals with the emotion in his voice. A truly beautiful track. HEAVY FUEL - A Rock n' roll track again with odd lyrics. This is where it gets a bit dodgy and I haven't listened to the final tracks much at all. They are called : IRON HAND TICKET TO HEAVEN MY PARTIES PLANET OF NEW ORLEANS HOW LONG Overall a good album spoilt by some poor tracks. ...

AC/DC live
Advantages: Great for rockers and AC/DC lovers Disadvantages: May get a bit repetative
...its a bargain for a live double disk! If you like a bit of rock or just love AC/DC you have to get this CD. Listening to this in the car on the way home, its a great drivers album. Loads of their greatest songs live on 2 disks makes good listening, non of the quality has been lost from the studio and personally i think that AC/DC are a lot better live than they were in the studio, the sound is more full and provides easier listening. The solo's are ...
