 The perfect pair May 30, 2008
This 2-DVD set is what we all want to see, AC/DC's greatest music videos (interspersed with awesome live performances) of both eras of this legendary band (up the the Razor's Edge album). Fans of Bon Scott will particularly enjoy the first DVD, it has one of the earliest TV performances by AC/DC with their first steady lead singer, Scott. Most fans don't know that AC/DC released a single with a different lead singer, Dave Evans, but they made the right choice and dumped him for Bon Scott's world-known howls.
 Great, but May 28, 2008
Has anyone figured a way to convert the DVD tracks to audio tracks in the MP3 format? I want an MP3 version of each song on the DVD without having to buy the CDs. I've tried to rip and convert, but no luck yet.

Long way to the top if you wanna rock and roll. Apr 09, 2008
AC/DC are one of the best rock bands of all time so when they released this 2 dvd set I just had to buy it immediately upon its release and when I got this dvd I was not disappointed. Family Jewels is a truly awesome music dvd, it has quite an impressive amount of music videos from the band throughout the years starting of on disc 1 with singer Bon Scott performing the song "Baby please don't go" live on Australian television with Bon Scott in drag looking absolutely demented and Angus rocking out in his trademark schoolboy outfit which is great, Bon Scott had a great stage presence and was a cool singer. Other highlights include "It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock and roll" where the band are performing on a platform to a large crowd on the street with a Scottish group playing bagpipes. "Let there be rock" has Bon Scott as a priest and its pretty good, there are other great videos as well like "Highway to hell", "Dirty deeds done dirt cheap", "If you want blood you've got it" etc. this is mostly live footage from the 70's and promo clips which then ends with the rare Spanish television performance taped ten days before Bon Scott's death.
Disc two traces the classic 80's and 90's videos and features Brian Johnson as the lead singer starting off with "Hells bells" from the album Back In Black which happens to be one of the best selling rock albums of all time, the problem with the second dvd is that it wasn't as good as the first but then again some people might disagree. I'm a Bon Scott fan but I still like Brian Johnson (Bon Scott had the charisma whilst Brian had the voice) however I consider Fly On The Wall to be one of the worst albums by AC/DC so I didn't really care for the Fly On The Wall video, the music video was way too corny especially when that little animated fly comes along (oh dear!)its one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen but still the rest of the videos were excellent and I especially liked "Thunderstruck" along with "Shook me all night long", "Heat seeker" and "For those about to rock" those were the best videos in my opinion. Overall theres some great music videos included in this dvd which you can't afford to miss especially if your an AC/DC fan, the picture and sound quality are absolutely brilliant and it has a nice 1.5 surround sound mix and it lasts for 2 and a half hours. This is the best music dvd I have ever seen and its a must for any true AC/DC fan.
For those about to rock.....We salute you.
