AC/DC (Family Jewels) 2005





Family Jewels is a 2 Disc DVD set containing pretty much every single music video and TV appearance of importance in their career. The 3rd Disc containing a few TV appearance as well as the newer music videos picks up where the original set leaves off. The 3rd Disc can be found within the Backtracks box set, which I don't have. Disc 1 is the Bon Scott years and Disc 2 is the Brian Johnson years.

Overall, this is a fantastic set. This is the first time I have watched it since the day I picked it up 5 years ago. And I have a much better appreciation for this DVD set now, coming on the heels of my AC/DC Marathon. Sounds and looks great. Highly recommend this one.

Included with the DVD set is a 23 page booklet with a biography about the band, TV appearances and music videos.

I don't use iTunes, but I figure this is big news. Only a handful of artists are not on iTunes yet, I surmise?

AC/DC releases entire catalog on iTunes

Quote
NEW YORK (AP) — AC/DC is finally releasing its music digitally on iTunes.

Columbia Records and Apple announced Monday that the classic rock band's music will be available at the iTunes Store worldwide.

Sixteen studio albums will be released, including "High Voltage" and "Back in Black," which is already in the Top 30 on iTunes' top albums chart. Two of the group's albums are also in the Top 100 and several of the Australian band's songs are in the Top 200.

AC/DC was one of the few acts that would not release music through the digital outlet. Two years ago Apple struck a deal with The Beatles' record label, EMI Group, and management company, and began selling the group's music. Kid Rock, who had also been against selling his music through the digital retailer, is releasing a new album, "Rebel Soul," on Monday and it's available on iTunes.

Silvio Pietroluongo, Billboard's director of charts, said AC/DC's decision isn't shocking.

"It's something that I think artists realize they need to do in order to get their music into the hands of their fans and to make more money," he said. "Right now with CD sales being what they are, touring is the main source of income and not every band is equipped to be out on tour 200 days a year to make the kind of money the need to make, or want to make."

Garth Brooks, however, has yet to release his music on iTunes. Pietroluongo said he believes the country star will come around, but he's not sure when that will be.

Four of AC/DC's live albums and three compilation records are also available. The statement said the songs have been mastered for iTunes "with increased audio fidelity."

The group's first live album in 20 years, "Live at River Plate," is out Tuesday.

PS: waiting for my copy of Live. Hope it comes in soon.

We all knew that Malcolm has been sick for quite some time and had been "on a break" since April. But hearing the news being confirmed that he is now officially out of the band is shocking to me. Angus gets all the glory, but Malcolm's rhythm playing is the straw that stirs the pot. He will be missed and it's just going to feel so odd not seeing and hearing him play in AC/DC. He is being replaced by his nephew Stevie Young on the album as well as becoming a member of the touring band.

AC/DC’s Malcolm Young Reportedly Being Treated for Dementia

Quote
When AC/DC announced the release of their new album the other day, the good news was offset by some bad: Founding guitarist Malcolm Young was no longer in the band. Seeing that he wasn’t involved in the recording of the album due to an undisclosed illness at the time, the news wasn’t all that surprising.

According to news reports, Young is being treated for dementia in a Sydney nursing facility. The 61-year-old guitarist was moved into the full-time care facility after suffering a stroke last year.

A family friend told the Sydney Morning Herald, ”If you were in the room with [Malcolm Young] and walked out, then came back in one minute later, he wouldn’t remember who you are. He has a complete loss of short-term memory. His wife, Linda, has put him in full-time care.”

According to the Alzheimer’s Association, “Dementia is a general term for a decline in mental ability severe enough to interfere with daily life. Memory loss is an example. Alzheimer’s is the most common type of dementia.” Earlier this year, country music legend Glen Campbell was forced to retire from touring, and was placed by his family into an Alzheimer’s care facility, as a result of his battle with the disease.

AC/DC announced their new album, ‘Rock or Bust,’ on Wednesday, the same day they released a statement about Young’s retirement from the band after 41 years. This will be the band’s first album without Young, and its first since ‘Black Ice’ debuted at No. 1 in 2008.

While the album isn’t due until Dec. 2, a minute-long sample of one of its songs, ‘Play Ball,’ has shown up in the trailer for MLB’s postseason play. The band plans to continue without Young. They’ll launch a tour in support of the new record next year with Malcolm’s nephew Stevie taking his place on record and onstage.

Charge dropped against AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd

Just heard about Phil being arrested on a Murder for Hire plot. It's the story that everyone is running with on the air right now. What I find ironic is that no one is reporting that those charges were dropped. Producers want to grab as many viewers as possible in spite of additional facts being out there that could derail their Nielsen numbers.

AC/DC’s Angus Young on Phil Rudd: ‘That Guy Needs to Sort Himself Out’

Based on the tone of what Angus and Cliff said, I think it's safe to say that Phil's days with the band are numbered. It wouldn't be the first time he was kicked out of AC/DC.

Nice rundown of each set of line ups that has been put together since the formation of AC/DC. Very fast read. Shouldn't take you more than 5 minutes tops.

Chris Slade Rumored to Rejoin AC/DC for Grammys Performance


I am totally on board with Chris Slade coming back into the fold. Didn't even think he would be mentioned as a viable candidate given how he exited the band the last time.
