I mean I like Brian Johnson and AC/DC are may fav band but Bon was the man. I just bought the albums Highway to Hell and Let there be Rock and Bloody hell Whole Lotta Rosie is jus Rock and Roll perfection.

Rock on.

AC/DC For Ever.

He sure was. I think some of the Johnson stuff is great, "You shook me all night long" is one of my favourite AC/DC songs ever. But the Bon Scott era gave us tracks like "Let there be Rock", Highway to Hell", Touch too much", "Ain't no fun waiting round to be a millionaire", "Whole lotta Rosie"... I could go on all night.
What a fantastic band.

AC/DC is GREAT!!! Angus Young has got to be one of the best guitarists. I love his riffs!

It's interesting, while Bonn was alive, true success eluded AC/DC. There is no doubt that Bonn Scott was incredible. After his death, Mutt Lange pulled off one of the greatest miracles in Rock history. He relpaced a band's lead singer and on the first album, created one of the biggest rock icons ever - Back in Black. I have had this album in my collection in one form or another since it came out. Great stuff

The best years for AC/DC would have to be:
Highway to Hell,
Dirty Deeds, Done Dirt Cheap,
Back in Black,
For Those About to Rock.

After that, some of the commercialism started to get in the way. Yes, even a hard metal act like AC/DC went commercial with "Fly on the Wall"! Tongue

Angus was definitely an interesting character to see.
I saw them on the "For Those About to Rock" tour way back. What a great show. Angus looked as if he was totally wound up on something!
Such a straight out, powerful rock n roll band!
