The newly released DVD pictured on this page is NOT the Paris concert that buyers would expect, and I was one of the suckers who unfortunately fell for it!
This so-called "Collector's Edition" is a 3 DVD set of pure drivel. Monotonous interviews with music reviewers taking up more than half of the time, with the only footage of the band being appalling quality MTV trash that looks more like a bootleg! I'd like to know who at Amazon let this slip through the net when I (and obviously others) were expecting to receive the original Paris concert with the exact same title.

Using the original 1991 title is a sleazy way of selling an item that in all honesty isn't worth the cost of the plastic & paper it's printed on! And to make matters worse, half of the dialogue from the first DVD is repeated on the third. A blatant rip-off!

I expect more of Amazon than to allow a grossly mislabeled load of tedious garbage to be sold as a substitute. It is out & out false advertising!

FYI, this is not the concert of the same title. Just a bunch of blokes talking about how great the band is.

This was put out in mid-October 2008. I along with at least a few others thought it was the same live concert footage that used to be in VHS, but, now on a DVD. Amazon has comments attached to it from the VHS version which was the live concert (plus some interviews) and that is why it still has a high star rating. I am planning to return this as DVD 2 and DVD 3 are overly redundant in content as well.

I was REALLY dissappointed with this DVD set! If you have MTV and/or VH1, you've already seen it. I own the original Let There Be Rock on VHS, with Bon Scott. This concert is NOT on this DVD set!!
***** BUYER BEWARE *****

When I bought this I thought I was getting the concert.
WRONG!!!!
All this is 3 disks of album reviews up to Back in Black.

Can anyone tell me why a $15 Vhs tape of archived material is so much? A $40 list price is incredible and the box art showing Brian Johnson as the lead singer is wrong! this from one of the last performances by Bon Scott during the "HIGHWAY TO HELL" tour. I love AC/DC like no other but you can get more from the "Plug" dvd released last year for about the same price and get both lead singers performing live. This DVD distibutor is trying to milk fans of there money with the new CD coming out on OCT. 20th exclusively at WALMART; its called "BLACK ICE".

Do yourself a favor and DON'T buy this!! This dvd set is NOT of the Paris concert as indicated by the title. It is a poorly produced grouping of a bunch of low-budget critics talking about the band and their career.
Stick to the authorized videos that the band is behind like Plug Me In and Family Jewels--those are the real deals and this is not.
I rate this video a D- !!
