We were lucky in our youth to see the development of AC/DC before our eyes. Bon Scott had been with 'Town Criers' and 'The Valentines' before Malcolm & Angus recruited him as lead vocal....and what a choice! I saw them many times on 'Countdown', a Melbourne-based music show hosted by Ian 'Molly' Meldrum, a leading producer and icon of Australian Music which started in 1974. We were lucky to see them play at our school social in 1975 for the premium price of $300....and they were only just another rock and roll band amongst many other Australian bands at the time.....and here we are some 50 years later and still listening to them. Thank you Nick and Lex.

Hi Guys, Ohh those early albums with Bon Scott !!!! They are brilliant ! I remember when Brian Johnson took over, I had a single by a group called Geordie called "All Because of You" [ I still have it ] and Brian was the lead singer. I recognized his voice immediately. Love AC/DC and live ... You are in for a treat. I have the dvd - "Live at Donnington" which is amazing to watch. I've seen a lot of live footage of different concerts, where Angus Young dresses as a schoolboy with school cap, blazer and shorts, with a school satchel on his back. His head banging is throughout any live concert. How he doesn't get headaches or suffer from exhaustion I'll never know. If you get the chance, one of my favourite tracks live is "High Voltage" ...Just watch Angus during his epic guitar solo. Even a Duracell battery would say ... Enough..I give up !! I remember watching on tv a live concert ...I wish I knew which one it was ... It had the best ever live version of "For Those About To Rock" where Angus left the stage and was carried all around the audience playing his guitar solo. If anyone knows ...please tell me if it's on u.t or even a dvd....Nick, did you & Lex get my package in December with 2 cds ? ... Ozzy Osbournes latest "Patient Number 9" & Steely Dan Live NorthEast Corridor ? I know you got the 70's Compilation cds & the back rest for Lex, but the other cds I addressed to your home direct from England, so I don't know if they arrived ok. ... Love this reaction. Seen this music video many times and it's always a joy to watch again. Thankyou ! Byeee Jim X

So, a short history - the band was formed by Malcolm (guitar) and Angus Young (lead guitar) AC/DC was, and still is, primarily a rock/boogie band. Malcolm & Angus' older brother, George was in a 1960's band called The Easybeats, who enjoyed some international success as well as being huge in Australia. As the Easybeats became successful, George would bring home guitars for his younger brothers who would sit in their room, practicing for countless hours. Angus quickly demonstrated a natural flair. In Jeff Apter's book on Angus "High Voltage" he tells how the older boys would play Angus a song on a record or radio & say "play that." Angus (aged about 12) would practice for 15-20 minutes & then come back & play the piece, note perfect. George's bandmate from The Easybeats, another immigrant to Australia (they all met while their families were living in an immigration accommodation centre in Sydney) was Harry Vanda. George & Harry would carry on after The Easybeats to write for & produce some of Australia & the world's biggest music acts. Vanda & Young are two of the most significant figures in Australian music history. They helped bands like Rose Tattoo become massive, and later bands like Guns & Roses would cover Rose Tattoo songs and cite them as huge influences in their formative times. Other acts to enjoy the Vanda & Young magic include The Angels (Angel City in the USA) Divinyls, dozens of others. Grace Jones covered their song "Walking In The Rain."

Nick Speaking of Bon Scott, other members of AC/DC were considering to disband after his death in 1980. But Bon Scott's family informed members that Bon wanted them to continue on as band. When auditioning for new vocalist, they went thru a few singers. Brian Johnson, who is waiting for his turn to audition. AC/DC were concerned why Johnson hasn't showed up for his turn. It turned out that Brian was playing pool with band's Roadies. He auditioned and gotten the job. Then Back In Black, AC/DC returned with a bullet with Brian Johnson. As both of you know, Malcolm died, his and Angus' nephew, Stevie Young (their older brother, George's son) stepped in Malcolm's place. AC/DC are playing Power Trip Festival in October along Ozzy returning, Iron Maiden, GnR, and Tool. Possible Biggest Festival in North America in Indio, California.

Bon Scott (Born in Scotland like Angus and Malcolm) replaced Dave Evans as lead singer in 1974. After 6 years of slugging it out in Aussie bars and barns and then in the seedy clubs of England, they finally hit it big in the US with HIGHWAY TO HELL prompting US markets to release many of their albums in 1979 for mass market. Then Bon died that winter. Englishman Brian Johnson stepped in and kept them going very well for 4 more decades.
