AC/DC Story, from the begining to Stiff Upper Lip, part 3

[@thomasfleig1780]

The fact that they went on, at the request of Bon's mother, and became one of the greatest rock bands of all time is the best tribute they could have given Scott.

[@Heatfarmer]

They already were one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Don't want to blame Brian Johnson and I am not sure if Bon wouldn't just have lost the nerve and voice, but it was a 70's band in all aspects and thats when they were best!

@Louis Jade no no no Bon was beautiful and very sexy while Brian Johnson just looks like a little old man running around

[@KevinSmith-qn8fn]

Bon Scotts voice was one of those voices that comes along once in a generation.I still think he had one of the best Rock n Roll voices ever.

[@zsolttemesi6534]

the way way they plugged in Brian Johnson is just mind blowing!!!!!

[@kevincosgrove948]

To think now, i can only hope that Bon was sitting in a pub upstairs and in walks Malcolm...and Bon walks over to him and says... been waitin for you mate.

[@idastanley4729]

After Bons death the band gave 10% of all there record sales to his mother until she was reunited with Bon....That's loyalty and respect in highest of high....When your a true musician like me and ACDC you have no choice but to carry on playing. When it's in your DNA you can't stop......Only the other side of life can stop it. But I always wondered how Back in Black would have sounded with Bon singing all the songs on it. Cause Angus and Malcolm had the chords and songs mostly done for back in black already down on paper.....

[@deathchronicles6960]

I heard something like that in one video.. They truly deserve their global fame see diddy when biggie died giving some help like money to biggie mom is out of question.. How dirty he was when his artist died and he take all the credits to take

I first picked up a guitar in 1968.... All my life all I wanted to be was a professional musician. As in many cases mine turned out to be another direction. I became a nurse in 2004... The reason I mention this in the comment section is the incredible professional demeanor and honesty of the members in this band... In all these years as a nurse I've never once encountered this kind of professionalism in my peers, and mid to upper-level providers. The one thing you can say about musicians who truly love their craft, understand that music is about the sum of all parts... Brought together. It's just a damn shame that Health Care can't replicate what this band has done.

Growing up in a country music home I remember as a teenager going out to the car and listening to the radio because mom would not let me even turn the country music up like teenagers like it. I was listening to country but thought I would just check out this station the kids were talking about at school. "Back in Black" was playing and I was a fan from that moment on.

[@bondoly66]

It's crazy thinking Bon has been dead much longer than he lived. He does still live in his music.

This was MY band as I grew up. AC/DC forever.

[@tiddlesa.6125]

I am blessed to say I’ve seen the band four times in my hometown Sydney. Angus’s energy and talent was worth every cent paid and I couldn’t take my eyes off him.

[@cloaknhood]

My dad was a big AC/DC fan, he first saw them at his university O-week in Melbourne. I grew up listening to this band and when I was 12 my dad took me to see them live for the first and only time, it was his 23rd time. It was in a packed stadium in Melbourne, Wolfmother were opening. As we were walking back to the train he asked me: what was the best song you saw tonight? I said 'Wolfmother - Joker and the Thief' I still haven't recovered from that beating to this very day.

[@ahbowakawapoussepousse2712]

@@adanacman666 No they never played a gig together! Bon just happened to see Geordie play and was so impressed he wanted to have a beer with Brian. Too many myths floating around. Brian talks about his meeting Bon here... kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJ22Zp2Xoq-lmpo The common story doing the internet traps is "Bon told the band that if something happened to him he wanted Brian to replace him." What a ludicrous lie. Who says that? What the boys said is that Bon thought he was invincible...not some guy forseeing his death thinking of replacements. Anyway, what Malcom does mention in an interview is is that he mentioned this great guy performing and they should go watch the band. They never got to. The first day they met him was the day of his audition.

Sometimes that's how people cope with tragic loss. They put their energies into focussing on a project which honoured his legacy.

Even though the Bon Scott era was balls out and about as good as it gets, Back in Black was a massive turning point and I'm sure it was Bon's death that really injected the vibe into that album and made it one of the all time great rock recordings.

The only thing I disagree on is that they didn't do a search for the lead singer. Bon Scott and another guy were out one night, saw Brian perform and Bon said "If I die, get him to replace me"..... I remember that from an interview MTV did with Malcom years ago....

3 sad things that I feel so bad for the boys. 1 Bon's death ofcourse. 2 The anguish Brian felt replacing Bon and to this day must read idiots squabbling over who was /is the better singer. 3 The fact that the media connected them to a freakish murderer because an ACDC hat was found. What a horrific and humiliating thing to endure!

[@DrJ-hx7wv]

This might be a little unpopular, but I've always loved the idea of Alan Fryer taking over from Bon. Rumor has it that he was actually hired in Australia when Angus hired Brian in Britain. I can't imagine the guy's disappointment when they came to him saying, "sorry, we hired someone else." No one can argue with Brian's success, but Fryer was a perfect Bon-style singer. When Alan died two years ago (or so), the main thing mentioned in his obituary was that he "almost" was the singer for AC/DC after Bon Scott. RIP to them all, Malcom, Alan and Bon.

[@gideonharris1493]

The boys specifically said they did NOT want a Bon sounding replacement! That is exactly why they said no to some artists who auditioned or were mentioned.

I Disagree. Bon created the platform. Without him they wouldn’t have made it that big. Brian is a big part in the success but Bon got them there. Malcolm and Bon are the reason for the success.

[@ahbowakawapoussepousse2712]

I disagree. Black in Black was in the works to be made. The boys already had most of the music. The lyrics would have been different, and the album cover, but had Bon lived it would have been another ACDC sensation. Many like myself mourning Bons death raced to immediately buy it because we just wanted to hear our beloved band again so sad, yet happy they were still powering. Brian did them justice and deserves every respect for taking on such a huge gap to fill. I hate it when people compare the two singers. Real AccaDacca fans don't pitch them against each other.
