Question

The man
Hello I have some live concert stuff of AC/DC wonder if you have heard of (bootlegs I think)  The first one I have I acquired from my UPS delivery man (ex drummer)in 1986 who said he was working the sound board at either the Old Waldorf or some other venue in San Francisco.  He said he recorded directly off the sound board.
The other two I got from an interaction with someone interested in the first one I mentioned so he traded me copies of the two he had for a copy of the one I had.
Titles:
   Definitely not the Glimmer twins Old Waldorf SF 9/3/77.
   Living in Hell, Towson Maryland, 10/16/79.
Are these actual recorded live albums or are they in fact what they the bootlegs they claim to be.

Either way would love to swap copies these for copies of someone else's cool stuff.  No money accepted, I promised the guy who gave to me I would pass on like he did so it stays cool and gritty.

Thanks for your time will send you copies as well if you want.

Answer
Hello Alley,

Thank you for your question.
Yes, these albums titled "Definitely Not The Glimmer Twins" and "Living In The Hell" would both be bootleg albums, not official ones.
Thank you for offering, however I do not require copies of these AC/DC recordings.

Best Regards,
Bill
