AC/DC is still the loudest yet cleanest concert I have ever been to. Can never figure out how they always played at a studio quality level on the stage.
@Satired and bored love avenged sevenfold. The rev was my inspiration for playing drums. Muse is my favourite band and a classic example of better live than in studio

Someone once said to Angus “Your the best guitarist in the world” his reply “Hell, I’m not even the best guitarist in this band”. He was an amazing showman.
Made up, it was the Beatles when Lennon was asked if Ringo was the best drummer in the world Lennon replied he's nott even the best drummer in the band.
That line has been around and used by many. Mike Levine of Triumph, when asked....how is it that A.C.D.C. is opening for you guys..... Mike said...."I guess we suck less than they do "
I agree this was his prime but would still rather hear nobody but Brian belting the lyrics. Age affects us all. I just turned 40 and I swear the day I did everything started hurting. And to think that Brian Johnson was around 43 during this concert and able to not miss a beat is crazy. People think touring and playing a gig 5 times a week in different cities would be so easy. Just play Back in Black while standing in your house and singing along. I was out of breath before the 1st set of lyrics was over and I tried it in my late 20s lol.
@@brianallison1913I feel this. I’m your age and have been a professional musician for twenty years. This last year I’ve almost given up because I’m just so tired now. Can’t imagine belting a whole two sets of AC/DC at any age.
Yes this is his last proper good live performance in my opinion see no bull live and stiff upper lip live his voice was shredded by then that's why when he sings it live now he has to do it in a low key because the range isn't there any more now
Yeah, I mean I still think Brian sings good even with his limited range after the Razors Edge tour, but he admittedly lost a lot of range after that tour.
@@fireball8767 Saddly everyone slowly starts to lose their range after around 40, even if you do take good care. Considering he's in his 70s now id say hes phenomenal even today for working with what he has
Mann, I was jealous reading that from you, I imagine myself on that concert (although I was 9 at that time). but still that year was the best concert of AC/DC in my opinion. Pure energy from the band and audience.
Brian's screaming, Angus' shredding, Malcolm and Cliff's massive bass and Chris' booming drums are all pure filth here. God I wish I could have seen AC/DC in their prime!
I am neither Australian nor Scottish nor American, but French and I must say that AC/DC will stay forever. They are huge, their music is magnificent, and Brian Johnson does honor to Bon Scott
Must be amazing as a drummer to basically be the conductor of the jumping of the crowd Also impressive how Angus can maintain the opening riff tempo while keeping that same headbanging and leg movement going
Nice catch. Usually (unless they're musicians) people don't realize how difficult it is to play something like that over and over and over without screwing up.
Angus is one of those rare players that can let his own playing keep him going.. You can see it in how he moves and grooves.. He's rocking to his own stuff and loving every minute of it..
I'm learning the intro riff on my Les Paul. To do it fast and for so long is very difficult, even sitting down. Prancing around on stage while doing it takes great skill. Awesome!
@@ironfae Nah I heard them live in 2015. I was expecting to hear the same as this and nothing. I left the front seat through the crowd to leave. Lol you kids lied lol
I saw them in Mannheim, Germany in 1991 about 3 months before this video was filmed. Best show I've ever been to. And yes- they are just as good live as they are on the albums. No other band like them!
I want to compliment all the people below who have been so kind to Akka Dakka (it's what we call them in Australia) - just a brilliant band from the get go
I dare ANYONE still in their 20's to do the movements that Angus does while playing guitar, for the period of time this song plays...play a game on your phone; try to read a page from a book...ANYTHING, but you have to continuously do the double stomp and head banging. Then, IMMEDIATELY walk across the room. You've just given yourself proof that Angus Young is the baddest bad ass on earth.
I am 39 and have a tattoo an Angus and tribute to my dad that has passed away. He always played AC/DC. Most favorite. I am showing videos to my son to hand it down for generations hopefully. Keep rocking on🤘🏻

I didn't know he was Tom Jones drummer in the 1960s and was on green green grass of home , manfred manns earthband Uriah heep etc , He should write a book .
Correction! The best Rock n Roll band of all time! Almost 50 year's of touring and recording Album's. There are other rock bands of course that are great too, but ACDC is Rock n Roll. Also Airbourne is another good band to bang your head and pump your fist too! Also from Australia. I also enjoy - Led Zeppelin - Metallica - Ozzy Osbourne - Black Sabbath - Aerosmith - Queen - Def Leppard - The Scorpion's - Shinedown - Volbeat - Fleetwood Mac also Stevie Nicks - Guns' n Rose's - Alter Bridge - Bon Jovi - Pantera - Van Halen - Whitesnake And Many Many More 😉
The Beatle's and Bruce Springsteen are wonderful but there not Rock n Roll like ACDC. I love the Bon Scott era and love Brian Johnson as well! If you want to head bang and fist pump well it's ACDC! Yeah Baby!!
10/06/23. I discovered this song for the first time. Not “discovered” in a Christopher Columbus kind of way. For all the senselessness that social media is, I give IG full praise for throwing a snippet of this gold in my satchel today & that was my introduction. I’ve had this vid on repeat since. Just a black kid from metro Detroit who grew up on nothing but Motown and black gospel music. Even with that background, this performance, this song immediately CAPTIVATED me 👀 👀! Beyond epic! I certainly knew of AC/DC before but couldn’t name 1 of their songs or sing a single lyric. I CAN NOW! Just tee’d up this full concert at Donington Park. The music industry and music in general lost its way long ago but thank Angus Young there were golden eras of each genre of music. This performance right here is example of the sheer genius of classic rock. Now pardon as I play catch up on this now 30 plus years of greatness 😅. “Thunder! Ahh ahh ah ahhhhh ha! 🎵 🎸
The very part when Brian shouts his first "THUN-DER!" and Mal comes in with his "Here we go, guys!" riff. Admit it, we all wait for that very second every time we listen to any performance of "Thunderstruck."
Actually it was smaller than donington crowds were a few years earlier. In the 80's they got into the hundreds of thousands. Then two people died in a crush in 1988 when guns n roses were playing, and so they put a limit on how many could get in. I think the count on this day was somewhere between 60,000 and 70,000. Felt like more when I was being crushed down at the front, mind you.
In fairness it's because this was their first big oudoor show in the uk for 7 years, and they had metallica and motley crue in support. I get the impression the UK is actually one of their weaker main markets when compared to say Germany or Australia. I think the they played to a far bigger crowd in Russia on this tour too (atleast 500k)
The most iconic and imposing piece of rock ever. Imagine war-hungry orks running down the hill to thunderstruck beats. AC DC LIVE II was the reason many teenagers at the time ran to the music store for their cheap first guitar
Christ man, seeing this live must've been legendary and the atmosphere must've been electric. The one I've always loved too is how steady Malcolm is holding the rhythm guitar down, just so solid.
I have seen them in concert for every single album release in the USA. First time, since I'm an Austinite, was in 1977. The only one I haven't seen was the latest Power Trip festival. No one, and I mean absolutely no one, puts on a better, pure blood-pumping rock and roll show than these guys. Bon Scott, Brian Johnson, doesn't matter which one you like more, they blast the place to hell with loud, hard-driving rock music that is unmatched.
It never ceases to amaze me that this is live and yet the quality is SO slick it might as well have been done in the studio. What a load of absolute legends.
This shows that the 80s and 90s are the pinnacle in "social" society, ironically before "social media" which is anything but social. The energy from the band is unsurpassed. The crowd is focused, engaged and not a single phone, video being shot or uploaded, nor a single selfie.
Das kann ich nur bestätigen. Hatte das Glück sie 2003 in Hockenheim ( Germany ) zu sehen. Als "Vorgruppe" der Stones. Ich mag die Stones aber gegen den Auftritt von AC/DC kamen sie nicht an. Eine Stunde AC/DC es war unvergleichlich. Diese Energie.Dagegen wirkte der Auftritt der Stones etwas müde. Sie hatten sich mit AC/DC als Vorgruppe keinen Gefallen getan. Das hatte ich mir schon vorher gedacht. Dieses Konzert habe ich nur wegen AC/DC besucht. Und wie gesagt es war der wahre Wahnsinn!!!
@@ingridescherle1911 Beide Musikgruppen sind meiner Meinung nach ausgezeichnet. Das Beste der 60er ist Stones, während die 70er AC DC und die 80er Motley Crue sind. Britisch Australisch und USA. wahre Weltmusik!
@@cinhh You misunderstood, of coarse cell phones existed. They were just phones, no cameras/videos no social media etc. Scan thru the crowd and find one person looking at a phone or holding up a phone. The only thing up ware Bic lighters.
AC/DC are the ultimate people's band. Nobody delivers the good times like they do. No pretention, no holding back, just straight up, 100 proof, electrifying, rock 'n' roll. Forget your troubles and enjoy the ride!!!
AC/DC is still the loudest yet cleanest concert I have ever been to. Can never figure out how they always played at a studio quality level on the stage.

Professionals behind the mixing desk. Period.
When Brian comes running out and yells Thunder, you know it's about to kick off. Epic song to this day!
His last properly good live performance his voice lost all its range & power after this
@Ritwish Basu yes it is it puts a lot of strain on the voice & after this you could clearly tell there was a lot of strain on Brian's voice
@Ritwish Basu especially early on when they didn’t know technique was a thing lol

You can move to my neighborhood any day!
Yes
Never was much of an AC/DC fan. Utube has really helped me to appreciate how incredibly talented they are.
I feel the same way about the cars
The talent was incredible guitar playing just so good

not for me.
No smoke, no pyrotechnics, no fancy special effects, just raw, fast, energetic power. Best way to open a show.
Rosie showed up later in the evening. The gear on her sexy as ever
They literally set off cannons to close every show and bring several giant blow up balloons - BUT doesn’t mean they don’t crush it every performance anyways
@@RobertBojorquez Right! But I was just talking about this song and it's power, as the OPENER, with out the special effects! I know they brought other props in this show because I've watch this entire show religiously hundreds of times 😅

Exactly, just been in the pub with my mates none of whom are heavy metal fans but they all love this tune and put it on the duke box all the time, still got the first single that I ever bought, whole lot of rosie bought in chipenham in wiltshire back in the late 70s
I was in that crowd. I still have the ticket. AC/DC were a joy to watch as they always, always turned a concert into a party atmosphere. Happy days.

Many have tried, but there will never be another AC/DC! A legend in their own time!
their descendants will take over when they pass away
Hell yeah!
Literally cannot stop bobbing my head

Everyone raves about the River Plate performance of Thunderstruck, but for me this is THE single greatest performance of this epic tune.
they were about 20 years younger
I agree. RP was great, but I think the band was better in this performance. Hard to beat that Argentinian crowd though.
Saw them the same year as this, also Monsters of Rock, but in Budapest. Bloody awesome 🙌
I agree. Shoot to Thrill was better here also
Well yeah, Brian was only 43 (almost 44) here… he’s like 62 at Riverplate. Obviously everyone else was almost 20 years older as well.

That’s exactly how Angus stays in rhythm. His foot tapping is him counting the beats. Two beats on one foot, two beats on the other.

Goddam the day that Angus Young dies is gonna be a very sad one. Hope to see this legend for years to come.

Can't imagine that, I was in shock when Malcolm died imagine when Angus dies I dont know
Bad enough when Bon Scott went . Fucking covered up.
Not gonna happen buddy, he'll be rocking from the grave
Wow. A live performance that actually sounds like the studio recording.
I'm so happy that I was lucky enough to see these guys live in the 80s and 1991 at Alpine Valley.

Sorry, Bruce Springsteen’s e street band has to be there too, a third place for AC/DC
Correction! The best Rock n Roll band of all time! Almost 50 year's of touring and recording Album's.
There are other rock bands of course that are great too, but ACDC is Rock n Roll.
Also Airbourne is another good band to bang your head and pump your fist too! Also from Australia.
I also enjoy
- Led Zeppelin
- Metallica
- Ozzy Osbourne
- Black Sabbath
- Aerosmith
- Queen
- Def Leppard
- The Scorpion's
- Shinedown
- Volbeat
- Fleetwood Mac also Stevie Nicks
- Guns' n Rose's
- Alter Bridge
- Bon Jovi
- Pantera
- Van Halen
- Whitesnake
And Many Many More 😉
The Beatle's and Bruce Springsteen are wonderful but there not Rock n Roll like ACDC.
I love the Bon Scott era and love Brian Johnson as well!
If you want to head bang and fist pump well it's ACDC!
Yeah Baby!!
No thinking involved, they ARE
Metallica
Есть вещи, которые не возможно повторить никому!! Ангус Янг неповторим и уникален, как впрочем и вся группа!!!
2024
The Guitar Solo is the Legendary part of the song!
Long live the Young brothers & Bon. Hail AC/DC !
10/06/23. I discovered this song for the first time. Not “discovered” in a Christopher Columbus kind of way. For all the senselessness that social media is, I give IG full praise for throwing a snippet of this gold in my satchel today & that was my introduction. I’ve had this vid on repeat since. Just a black kid from metro Detroit who grew up on nothing but Motown and black gospel music. Even with that background, this performance, this song immediately CAPTIVATED me 👀 👀! Beyond epic! I certainly knew of AC/DC before but couldn’t name 1 of their songs or sing a single lyric. I CAN NOW! Just tee’d up this full concert at Donington Park. The music industry and music in general lost its way long ago but thank Angus Young there were golden eras of each genre of music. This performance right here is example of the sheer genius of classic rock. Now pardon as I play catch up on this now 30 plus years of greatness 😅. “Thunder! Ahh ahh ah ahhhhh ha! 🎵 🎸
Brian Johnson's pitch and power is incredible. The best raw power rock band the world has ever seen.
Outfuckingstanding.
Anyone else getting goosebumps from this in ‘24?
Astounded by the performance!!
Absolutely phenomenal! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
facts
Me...watching this performance
Yes
Definitely, I was there, still have my concert shirt...!
The very part when Brian shouts his first "THUN-DER!" and Mal comes in with his "Here we go, guys!" riff. Admit it, we all wait for that very second every time we listen to any performance of "Thunderstruck."
The size of the crowd is phenomenal!
It was fantastic my head was thumbing for a week after
Actually it was smaller than donington crowds were a few years earlier.
In the 80's they got into the hundreds of thousands. Then two people died in a crush in 1988 when guns n roses were playing, and so they put a limit on how many could get in.
I think the count on this day was somewhere between 60,000 and 70,000.
Felt like more when I was being crushed down at the front, mind you.
I'm hallucinating or is it really Lars Ulrich at 1:05
Take a look at sziget festival. Its 7 days but i think about 450,000 attend. Couldn't recommend it enough for anyone interested
In fairness it's because this was their first big oudoor show in the uk for 7 years, and they had metallica and motley crue in support. I get the impression the UK is actually one of their weaker main markets when compared to say Germany or Australia. I think the they played to a far bigger crowd in Russia on this tour too (atleast 500k)
The most iconic and imposing piece of rock ever. Imagine war-hungry orks running down the hill to thunderstruck beats. AC DC LIVE II was the reason many teenagers at the time ran to the music store for their cheap first guitar
Brian's voice is like getting your heart shredded with a long, rusty Bowie knife!
The power is devastating!!!
I was born 08/17/1991, and I'm a musician/instructor... it all makes sense now lol.
Your mom picked a fine day to bring you in .
Congrats . Make it time well spent .
0:31 R.I.P., Angus' hat.
Réka Kalmár his hat has been....Thunderstruck! 😎😎🎸
Zseniális! :D
Yeah Angus'es hat never lasted more than half song, until the Black Ice Tour where it would last like half show.
Yeah.. i don't know if i'm getting old or what, but what a lame comment.. :-)
@@brugges ahahahahahaaa!! I'm hearin ya buddy 🤘🏾🤣
This is the definition of badassary rock. Nothing but pure energy unleashed.
My mother listens to this and she’s well into her 70’s🤘🤘🤘🤘
I am 75yrs old‼
Woahhhh
My mum would have the volume up to the last the floor would have to be empty for her to dance
@@raymondscilingo8052 68 here.
Rock on 🤘
Christ man, seeing this live must've been legendary and the atmosphere must've been electric. The one I've always loved too is how steady Malcolm is holding the rhythm guitar down, just so solid.
agree
To all the people who attended this magnificent concert. "" I Salute You""🤘
For those about to rock, we salute you!
one of the greatest rock song ever made!!!
Oh yeah!
I have seen them in concert for every single album release in the USA. First time, since I'm an Austinite, was in 1977. The only one I haven't seen was the latest Power Trip festival. No one, and I mean absolutely no one, puts on a better, pure blood-pumping rock and roll show than these guys. Bon Scott, Brian Johnson, doesn't matter which one you like more, they blast the place to hell with loud, hard-driving rock music that is unmatched.
Those were the days, everyone still young, that crowd is massive. It's a shame we've to get old. Great times.
Seeing this at 15 years old is what made me want to rock, 15 years later nothing had changed. This footage changed my life
It never ceases to amaze me that this is live and yet the quality is SO slick it might as well have been done in the studio. What a load of absolute legends.
This shows that the 80s and 90s are the pinnacle in "social" society, ironically before "social media" which is anything but social. The energy from the band is unsurpassed. The crowd is focused, engaged and not a single phone, video being shot or uploaded, nor a single selfie.
Das kann ich nur bestätigen. Hatte das Glück sie 2003 in Hockenheim ( Germany ) zu sehen. Als "Vorgruppe" der Stones. Ich mag die Stones aber gegen den Auftritt von AC/DC kamen sie nicht an. Eine Stunde AC/DC es war unvergleichlich. Diese Energie.Dagegen wirkte der Auftritt der Stones etwas müde. Sie hatten sich mit AC/DC als Vorgruppe keinen Gefallen getan. Das hatte ich mir schon vorher gedacht. Dieses Konzert habe ich nur wegen AC/DC besucht. Und wie gesagt es war der wahre Wahnsinn!!!
Wahnsinn, das kann ich nur bestätigen. Habe sie 2003
@@ingridescherle1911 Beide Musikgruppen sind meiner Meinung nach ausgezeichnet. Das Beste der 60er ist Stones, während die 70er AC DC und die 80er Motley Crue sind. Britisch Australisch und USA. wahre Weltmusik!
"not a single phone"
In 1991??? Yeah.
@@cinhh You misunderstood, of coarse cell phones existed. They were just phones, no cameras/videos no social media etc. Scan thru the crowd and find one person looking at a phone or holding up a phone. The only thing up ware Bic lighters.
This is the concert experience.
AC/DC.
Donnington.
The Standard.
'Nuff said.
AC/DC are the ultimate people's band. Nobody delivers the good times like they do. No pretention, no holding back, just straight up, 100 proof, electrifying, rock 'n' roll. Forget your troubles and enjoy the ride!!!
The great thing about Brian is that it’s never about him. It’s all about AC/DC. Classy bloke.
The energy angus young brings and his style is truly that of legends.
Chris Slade absolutely loved playing for ACDC at it always showed.
Goosebump. Every single time.
Angus is such a pro. Every concert he knew they paid good money and he always gave them their worth.
This is not only a song.... no no no no....This is a fucking ANTHEM! 🤘🤘
I am so glad I'm old enough to have seen these guys in their prime. AC/DC one of the few bands that are true Rock Gods.
This has got to be the best live performance from band... EVER
@DerpySquirtleBoi AC DC- Thunderstruck at River Plate is better
and all the concert
Same feeling here 🤘
Acdc is better than Metallica in my books. ❤🎛
@@deanneforeman3107 Agree.. Metallica adjusted to grunge and nu-metal crap to increase sells.... ACDC , Megadeth or Maiden never did that.
Best live version of Thunderstruck
