AC/DC REMASTERS Series.
BONFIRE is a five-disc box set by Australian rock band AC/DC, released on 18th November 1997, and remastered with a release in Digipak similar to a Longbox format in 2003. It was originally conceived to mark what would have been the 50th birthday of Bon Scott, the band's previous lead vocalist who died of alcohol-related misadventure in 1980. Oddly, the legend of Bon Scott never haunted AC/DC. By the late '90s, the group remained popular, and a strange phenomenon had happened - there were generations of AC/DC fans who came of age after Scott's death, and had only a passing familiarity with the rocker. Perhaps that's one of the reasons why AC/DC lovingly assembled the five-disc box set BONFIRE in 1997. For hardcore fans, this is something of a dream come true, since the live albums are stronger than any of the group's other live releases, with the possible exception of If You Want Blood You've Got It. The disc of alternate takes, outtakes, and stray live cuts offers no real revelations, but there are enough interesting moments to make it worthwhile. And while any AC/DC fan has Back In Black, it's nice hearing it in this context, because it shows that even if the band could carry on splendidly, they were still missing the insane, wild-man charisma of Bon Scott. Nowhere is that charisma better preserved than on BONFIRE.

When Bon Scott died at the age of 33, many thought this wasthe end of AC/DC. The band rebounded by recruiting vocalist Brian Johnson and releasing their best-selling album ever, Back In Black. BONFIRE is a five-disc tribute to the pugnacious and raspy-voiced Bon Scott, overflowing with the bare-fisted riffs and ribald lyrics that were the trademark of his edition of the band. Recorded live at New York's Atlantic Studios, Disc One was originally a promotionally release that's been bootlegged countless times over the years. All thriller, no filler, this recording overflows with plenty of classics ranging from the band's cheeky tribute to venereal disease "The Clap" to the tale of an over-sexed Rubenesque female fan "Whole Lotta Rosie". Discs Two and Three are an expanded version of the soundtrack to the 1980 concert film Let There Be Rock. Recorded before a French audience, AC/DC's in-your-face performance transcended any cultural differences and the audience often sang along despite language barriers. Entitled Volts, Disc Four consists of work-in-process studio recordings of material such as "Touch Too Much" and "Get It Hot" with different lyrics than the finished versions. The inclusion of the slow blues of "Ride On" shows another side to AC/DC often lost among the lascivious offerings of "Beatin' Around The Bush" and "She's Got Balls". A re-mastered version of Back In Black completes this set marking the end of one era and the beginning of another. The story goes like this: Bon Scott was once asked if he was "AC" or "DC". Without hesitation, the one time wild front man from AC/DC simply gave the guy a bad ass look and a mean upper-cut to the chops, and stated "I'm the fucking slash in the middle!"
