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.

Best Live Show on Earth, (Except for maybe Bill Bailey.)

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"!  :P

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!

"Stand up and be counted,
For what you are about to receive.
We are the dealers,
We give you everything you need.
For those about to rock...............FIRE!
We Salute You!!!!!"
