'''''Bonfire''''' is a five-disc box set by Australian band [[AC/DC]], released in 1997, and remastered with a release in Digipak format in 2003. It was created as a tribute to the band's earlier singer [[Bon Scott]] and included the two disc soundtrack to the movie ''Let There Be Rock'', some early unreleased tracks, a live recording from the [[Atlantic Records]] studio in [[New York City|New York]] and a [[remaster]]ed version of ''[[Back in Black]]''.
'''''Bonfire''''' is a five-disc [[box set]] by Australian rock band [[AC/DC]], released in 1997, and remastered with a release in Digipak format in 2003. It was originally conceived to mark what would have been the 50th birthday of [[Bon Scott]], the band's previous lead vocalist who died of alcohol-related misadventure in 1980. The release includes the two disc soundtrack for the film ''[[Let There Be Rock: The Movie Live in Paris|Let There Be Rock]]'', a live recording from the [[Atlantic Records]] studio in [[New York City|New York]], some previously unreleased early material and a [[remaster]]ed version of the 1980 ''[[Back in Black]]'' album.


==Overview==
The album was originally released in 1997 with the CDs all packaged individually in jewel cases, complete with full artwork. The original issue also features a poster, a backstage pass, keyring and a few other extras depending on the region. When the album was reissued in 2003 it was packaged in a large digipak, similar to a [[longbox]], which featured either four- or five-disc trays. The four-tray versions contained the remastered ''Back in Black'' in its own case with booklet. All versions of the box feature a large book full of liner notes and rare pictures of the band, mostly from before Scott's death.

All versions of the box feature a large book full of liner notes and rare pictures of the band, mostly from before Scott's death.


The boxset was the subject of a bit of derision from AC/DC fans for its limited content - two live albums (one previously released) and a select few rarities, as well as the Scott-inspired ''Back in Black'', which does not feature Scott on vocals. AC/DC defended the release, stating that there was very little recorded by Scott that wasn't already released.

The Australian version is slightly different; Let There Be Rock: Live in Paris became a single disc album by removing two tracks, Walk All Over You and TNT, which were added to the Volts album instead, creating a four disc boxset.

Bonfire is a five-disc box set by Australian rock band AC/DC, released in 1997, and remastered with a release in Digipak format in 2003. It was originally conceived to mark what would have been the 50th birthday of Bon Scott, the band's previous lead vocalist who died of alcohol-related misadventure in 1980. The release includes the two disc soundtrack for the film Let There Be Rock, a live recording from the Atlantic Records studio in New York, some previously unreleased early material and a remastered version of the 1980 Back in Black album.

Overview

[edit]

The album was originally released in 1997 with the CDs all packaged individually in jewel cases, complete with full artwork. The original issue also features a poster, a backstage pass, keyring and a few other extras depending on the region. When the album was reissued in 2003, it was packaged in a large digipak, similar to a longbox, which featured either four- or five-disc trays. The four-tray versions contained the remastered Back in Black in its own case with booklet. All versions of the box feature a large book full of liner notes and rare pictures of the band, mostly from before Scott's death.

The boxset was the subject of a bit of derision from AC/DC fans for its limited content and select few rarities. AC/DC defended the release, stating that there was very little recorded by Scott that was not already released.

The Australian version is slightly different; Let There Be Rock: Live in Paris became a single disc album by removing two tracks, Walk All Over You and TNT, which were added to the Volts album instead, creating a four disc boxset.
