AC/DC live Nashville 8 August 1978 (Full Concert)

[@thomascoil3590]

This was not really a concert, for those wondering about the lack of audience participation. It was actually part of an Atlantic Record convention. I have a promotional copy of PowerAge, stamped on the cover. The band was promoting their new album in Nashville. KDF was Nashville's rock station at the time, on site to cover the event. AC/DC was just on the verge of breaking through in the US. It would have been a real treat to have been one of the (few dozen?) in attendance!

[@richard7586]

Now the indifference makes sense! Thanks you for adding that.

[@kevinkhoy7171]

This is obviously the same concert where they did "She's Gone Shootin" & Excellent version! The quiet reserved audience gave it the element of pure power & perfection!

[@styleomatic1318]

Sounds great! What was the building/venue? Thanks

[@bobbafett1849]

KDF and also Rock 106

[@bobbafett1849]

I want to say this was at the Exit Inn

[@kenamaro3942]

1st time I saw them was 1979 with Bon. Oakland CA, Day On The Green with Aerosmith and Ted Nugent---my ears are still ringing !!

[@dimebag6675]

🤟

[@buzioldarryl]

AC/DC is the best band!

[@JacJuuPed]

History…. The genre changed. Even today listening to this defines “toe tapping rock”

[@paulchilds9128]

No one can have a gravelly voice that loud and clear

[@genther6668]

Bon Scott greatest frontman ever

[@carlshields3764]

100%!!

[@Lemmi7810]

Oh yeah! There was never someone like him. Charismatic as hell. Bon = Rock n Roll

[@KravMagaThailand]

Gone Shooting - amazing! Especially during the solo you can really here Malcolm doing his thing!

[@barryhouchin5347]

His playing is a master class on rhythm guitar. Absolutely flawless.

[@jerryt87]

Best version of this I ever heard!

[@richard7586]

AC DC: Rip the stage apart with a killer set Nashville Audience: Polite applause

[@smokesletsgo2374]

The world was not ready for Bon Scott fronted AC/DC, they were in shock. Saying to themselves "what the fuck am I looking at?"

[@toddhastings3376]

​@@smokesletsgo2374 Nashville, back in the 70S was still Country and Western Music City. Not many rock and roll bands would have a stop on their tour here back then

[@michaelbradley3393]

In Australia we were already in awe of this great band! @@smokesletsgo2374

[@EliasT502]

The Announcer/MC..."I think we will have a nice concert"....LOL...Lady, you should have thrown seatbelts and shouted "Strap in honeys for the ride of your lives!!!!"

[@thomascoil3590]

Please see my comment, 3.25.24.

[@b.o.t.bandseattle3753]

This is a great recording with the band at its peak. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@ianowen9717]

Agreed. 1978 and Powerage was in my opinion their 'Zenith' as a band. I saw them at Liverpool Empire UK in the May of that same year. Their UK set list was similar but they opened with Riff Raff instead of Live Wire. Powerage was the last Studio Album produced by Vanda & Young before they handed over the reins to Mutt Lange, presumably to gain a more stylized and commercial product? Personally I prefer the rawness of the earlier albums.

[@robertkoth4022]

I agree bon songs are true rock in roll lyrics. Just just the best raw ROCK/ROLL in your face. LEGENDS. IM 68 MY GRANDSON LOVES THEM.I SEEN THEM IN 1979 IN CINCINNATI WITH TED NUGET.ABOUT A HOUR OR SO.THEY SUCK ALL THE ENERGY OUT OF TH E PLACE.WHAT A SHOW BON, ANGUS,MALCOM ONE IN A BIILION OF YEARS COMBANATION. GREAT TO HAD THE CHANCE SEE THEM.😊😊

[@johncarter44]

If they could have performed Down Payment Blues, we would have a pristine live recording of one of the best Powerage songs, fortunately Gone Shootin' was captured by Bon Scott & the Volts! 🎼🎸☇🎤🤘

[@simonjohnston8448]

Look up Newcastle mayfair 5th May 1978. Great live version of DPB

[@thomasflanagan7003]

Down payment blue's one of the best songs ac/DC at their best rock on 🤘

[@thomasflanagan7003]

Powerage my favorite album 😊

[@stubrown9597]

Great audio quality from so far back.... I'm as old as Bon would have been had he survived, I wonder how he'd sound today...

[@ribonucleic]

Unlistenable.

[@theseeker4642]

He'd never have survived his lifestyle.

[@jamesragsdale8202]

He would have sounded phenomenal like Halford does today. He was a real singer.

[@neroguy]

One of the best Bon era live recordings Thank you!

[@metriffs]

This is something else. Pure rock and roll. Love it. Phils is like a fucking freight train.

[@Simmo_Cars]

I need whatever high hats he was using here!!

[@georgemaranville3305]

Love when they do Gone Shootin’ live. Thanks!

[@bonscottr.64]

Now i feel much better!!!

[@stimpie801]

Bon Scott...R.I.P.

[@970ronaldo]

"Gone Shootin" OMG! best best best!

[@MichaelLynch01]

The Best Live Version 💯🔥🎸😈

[@barryhouchin5347]

A masterpiece.

[@toddrouw6019]

I love how the outro solos are always different live on Gone Shootin!

[@dustinshewalter8708]

Holy shit that is powerful

[@TheFistfullofsteel]

Awesome Quality.

[@MrJohnnyDistortion]

Probably taken from the mixing console.

[@jockl1967]

Die beste Rockerversion ever.

[@DavyDredd14]

Exciting rock n roll performance by AC/DC !

[@Simmo_Cars]

Perfecto. Cliff is so bloody underrated. So groovy with so many tasty fills while still maintaining a solid foundation. Top notch bassist

[@DeuteroPentaelgathor]

Best AC/DC live.

[@marcsimon1720]

[@scottr664]

Awesome thanks for sharing ! Acdc clearly at the top of their game here with Bon!

[@dimebag6675]

AC/DC bring it!

[@dno4794]

What a front man!!

[@acdcrocks9938]

Awesome

[@EDOGG62]

Saw them twice with Bon... Amazing. I've also seen them 2-3x with Brian and it was cool, but Bon had the voice. I would've loved to have seen them use the lead singer from Krokus instead, after Bon passed.

[@ribonucleic]

Great upload. Thank you.

[@326vince]

Thanks! As a fan who saw the band 3 times I really appreciate it! 2 times with Bon. Once With Brian. Again thank you for the great show! Even if it was for recording executive they rocked the shit out of it anyway

[@chicharito417]

What the hell is wrong with the audience? They’re watching one of the greatest live bands ever and it’s like they’re asleep. They had no clue what they were experiencing

[@EliasT502]

I don't think the announcer/MC had a clue either. It sounds like she's getting ready to introduce the next Ted speaker!...LOL

[@thomascoil3590]

See my comment, please. 3.25.24.

[@veraluciapintorios5740]

Maravilhoso!!!

[@jacestephenweatherall1732]

Love the photo of Angus putting his tie on Bon’s head it’s pretty funny

[@nilomack8034]

That’s crazy 😜

[@XavierFrebourg]

AC/DC only whith bon ❤ 31:49

[@RicardoReis-q2k]

Soa poderosa como é

[@robertleeimages]

😂Bons intro to Rosie

[@Steambull1]

Not that I'm an expert, but even from an "audio engineering" stand point, this sounds really great. My browser plugin EQ's default settings usually improve any YT live audio, but in this case it just made everything sound worse. Gotta make a CD/cassette of this to be played on my main equipment.

[@edoardobelloni]

It's souced form the original reel to reel tape... a lot of dynamics and a great bass sound, the only problem is the drum stereo panning.. it's reversed, but there's nothing that i can do

[@henryleanos3273]

It's getting dark don't.give.a.blackin.shit.bon.scott.your.still.light.up.my.rock.blues😊❤🎉😮😂
