AC/DC Live at Castle Donington Park performing Guns for Hire and more

Venue: Donington Park Location: Castle Donington, England, United Kingdom Date: August 18, 1984

In August 1984, AC/DC was fresh off their powerful album 'For Those About to Rock We Salute You,' which had been released the previous year. This live concert at Castle Donington Park, part of the legendary Donington Park Festival, showcased the high-energy performance typical of the band during this era. An interesting tidbit? This period marked a pivotal moment for AC/DC as they were solidifying their status as rock legends, following the tragic loss of their original frontman, Bon Scott, in 1980. This show features a vibrant mix of fan favorites, like 'Shoot to Thrill' and 'Sin City,' further proving that AC/DC had fully embraced their new frontman, Brian Johnson, by this point. The blend of soundboard and audience recordings captures the electric atmosphere of the crowd and the band's undeniable charisma.
