视频简介
《Live at River Plate》记录了澳大利亚硬摇滚传奇AC/DC于2009年12月在阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯河床体育场(River Plate Stadium)举办的三场史诗级演唱会。这是乐队时隔13年重返阿根廷,三场演出吸引了超过20万乐迷,门票全部售罄,现场气氛堪称疯狂。这场演出是AC/DC《Black Ice》世界巡演的重要一站,整个巡演跨越28个国家108个城市,为超过500万观众献上了一场场硬摇滚的狂欢。此次发行的蓝光版本采用32台高清摄像机拍摄,将这支摇滚老将的磅礴气势与南美乐迷的狂热完美定格。
演出以《Rock N‘ Roll Train》震撼开场,Angus Young身着标志性校服、背着Gibson SG吉他的形象瞬间点燃全场。主唱Brian Johnson以一句“We don’t speak Spanish very good, but we do speak rock and roll. Let’s go!”拉开序幕。整场演出横跨乐队多个时期的经典作品:从70年代的《T.N.T.》《Whole Lotta Rosie》,80年代的《Back in Black》《Hells Bells》《You Shook Me All Night Long》,到90年代的《Thunderstruck》,再到新专辑《Black Ice》中的《Big Jack》《War Machine》等。Angus Young标志性的鸭子步、脱衣solo环节在《Let There Be Rock》中被推向高潮,长达十分钟的吉他独奏令人屏息。当《For Those About To Rock》响起时,舞台两侧的礼炮齐鸣,为这场摇滚盛典画上完美句号。
尽管当时乐队成员平均年龄已逾50岁,Angus Young也已54岁,但他们的现场能量丝毫不减当年。阿根廷《Pagina 12》报纸评论道:“在纯粹而清晰的摇滚乐领域,没有人能与他们站在同一水平线上”。这场演出证明了AC/DC作为摇滚活化石的不朽魅力。
乐评
《Live at River Plate》自发行以来获得了广泛好评,多家音乐媒体给予高度评价。Sputnikmusic用户评分为3.9/5,多位评论者给予满分评价。不过也有乐评人指出,乐队在新歌与老歌之间的能量存在落差,新专辑《Black Ice》的曲目如《Black Ice》《Big Jack》相较经典作品略显平淡。但无可争议的是,当《Back in Black》《Highway To Hell》《For Those About to Rock》等经典响起时,现场能量达到巅峰,证明了AC/DC依然是“摇滚乐最纯粹的代言人”。有乐评人盛赞这场演出为“摇滚涅槃的终极现场记录”,Angus Young的吉他solo虽不如早年那般肆意奔放,但技术更加精准凝练,Brian Johnson的嗓音虽略显吃力,却以饱满的热情弥补了岁月的痕迹。这是一张献给所有硬摇滚乐迷的教科书级现场,见证了“即便年过花甲,摇滚不死”的传奇精神。

The rhythm section of Malcolm Young and Cliff Williams is the unsung hero of this band. They lock in so tight and just drive everything forward. Rudd's drumming is simple but devastatingly effective.
《Highway To Hell》作为倒数第二首太合适了,那种不羁的感觉把全场气氛推到最高点。然后《For Those About To Rock》的大炮收尾,完美得不能再完美。这场演唱会的曲目编排是教科书级别的。
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap brings back so many memories. Hearing 200,000 people shout "Dirty deeds, done dirt cheap" is something else. Brian really knows how to work that call and response.
阿根廷观众跟Angus一起弹空气吉他的画面太经典了。当Angus开始solo的时候,整个看台上成千上万的人都在模仿他的动作,那个场面震撼到无法形容。这就是摇滚乐最原始的力量,不需要任何修饰。
Whole Lotta Rosie still has one of the greatest riffs ever written. The live version absolutely smokes the studio recording. Angus's solo section is pure fire.
这场演唱会最让我感动的是那种跨越代际的共鸣。镜头里能看到头发花白的老摇滚迷,也能看到十几岁的年轻人,他们都在跟着同样的节奏摇摆。AC/DC的音乐好像不受时间影响,四十年后依然能让年轻人热血沸腾。
The production on this Blu-ray is insane. 32 cameras capturing every angle, the audio mix is crystal clear but still raw enough to feel like a live show. You can hear the crowd singing along on every chorus.
《Hells Bells》开场的大钟声一响,整个体育场的气氛就变了。那种压迫感、那种仪式感,只有AC/DC能做到。Brian Johnson站在舞台中央,声音从喉咙里挤出来却依然有穿透力,这就是硬摇滚的魅力。
The cannon salvo at the end of For Those About To Rock is the greatest concert ending in rock history. Every time I watch it I crank my speakers to maximum.
我特别喜欢看Angus和Brian的互动。主唱在前面跑来跑去煽动观众,吉他手在后面疯狂solo,两个人配合了这么多年默契得像一个人。这种老派摇滚的化学反应,现在的新乐队很难复制。
Let There Be Rock is the centerpiece of this show. Angus's extended solo isn't about showing off technical ability, it's about pure emotional release. By the time he finishes, you're exhausted just watching him.
