Few crowds match Buenos Aires for noise and passion, and AC/DC’s shows at River Plate stadium in December 2009 — part of the Black Ice World Tour — are proof. The concert film, released in 2011, captures Angus Young’s schoolboy-uniform showmanship, Brian Johnson’s rasp and a stadium bouncing in unison.
What to listen for
Riffs, not complexity. AC/DC’s power comes from simple, perfectly placed guitar parts.
The groove. The rhythm section sits slightly behind the beat — that is the swagger.
The crowd. On songs like “Thunderstruck” the audience is practically an extra instrument.
