Malcolm Young had this song played at his funeral. Many of those original pipers in the video were still living and gladly performed the song at Malcolm's request. He also had the song Waltzing Matilda played at his funeral as it was his favorite song. Bon's hometown has a statue of him there, and he's holding bagpipes. His father was a piper too. 💔🕊🕯🙏

Ah, yes, AC/DC's first real hit... this aptly-named song, originally only released in their home nation of Aussie but later released worldwide, launched a legend that would eventually go on to last 6+ decades. This was Bon Scott's favourite song, and when he sadly was lost, the band agreed never to play this song live again, another way to honour the legacy of their bandmate.

Well they sure had a funny way of honoring Bon by ripping off his lyrics to the BnB lp claiming B. Johnson wrote them when a simple analysis of Bon and Brian's writing styles and life experiences easily weighs heavily to Bon Scott writing Back in Black, Shook me All Night Long, and all the rest of that album. It wouldn't matter much but BnB was their biggest selling record by far and the royalties writing the songs would've gone to Bon Scott's Widow and children in Australia. As it turned out they got nothing. RIP Bon Scott and Malcolm Young

And after seeing them live so many times in Melbourne Australia in the mid 70’s as a teenager, he was the mould from the start. Oozed natural charisma, fans loved him, girls loved him (not us, we were good girls) and guys loved him. No BS about him, just a good decent bloke who never got a big head, and he was a really funny guy. He will always be a legend in this country, as is Mal. ❤️

AC/DC legitimately have 50+ songs that can be considered BANGERS. Genuinely, if a random 80s band was founded and wrote their 50th best song, it would be considered a one hit wonder. There's so many good ones hidden away that you can keep going for years. My favourite recent find was the song Bad Boy Boogie, with one of the most catchy riffs I've heard in years!

I saw an interview where Bon Scott said that he had played in a pipe and drum corps before AC/DC so he told the producer he knew the bagpipes. What he meant was that he knew how to play the bagpipes not that he could play the bagpipes. The climb to success is never what it seems. Like Bob Seeger said you do your stuff every night sometimes twice a night and after ten years they call you an overnight success.

The Young brothers are from Scotland but grew-up in Australia. Singer Bon Scott is also from Scotland but also mostly grew-up in Australia. Bassist Mark Evans wrote a memoir about his time in AC/DC (he was kicked-out in 1977), he noted that Bon Scott actually doesn't know how to play the bagpipes and most of the bagpipe section in this song was spliced together after multiple takes.

Back in Black album was a standard in the weight room when I was in high school. Even after high school anytime you went to the gym for a workout that album was sure to be heard.

I was at a Scot Irish Festival years ago in Dandridge Tn. A lone piper was on top of the dike overlooking the town and lake playing. "Its A Long Way to the Top" It was awesome.

I saw AC/DC on the Highway to Hell tour and Bon Scott one of the best unique voices in Rock! Sorely missed! I saw AC/DC on Back in Black in 1980 and For Those About to Rock We Salute You in 1981. Brian Johnson was the perfect fit for AC/DC after Bon passed. Brian was a unique voice just like Bon’s voice was unique. Love them both!

I saw them in 81 Pittsburgh. Easily Top 3 best live shows I've ever seen. Saw them again in the 90's and not much changed.

This was a huge road song when I was growing up. Summer day, in the car, widows down and song blasting. On the freeway rockin’ out and by the end of the song, you look up to see a cop in the rear view mirror, lights flashing because you’ve apparently been speeding the last 5 minutes.. Great tune! Good pick Phil and Sam! ✌️😎👍💕

The bagpipes were suggested by producer, older brother to Malcolm and Angus Young, George Young as Bob Scott had once been in a pipe band.

This clip is the Second performance they did on the same day, the First was on the back of a truck driving though Melbourne traffic.... the other pipers are members of the "Rats of Tobruk Pipe Band", and are veterans. Bon Scott was in a pipe band at school, as a drummer, he had experience previously with the baritone recorder and clarinet with his previous band "Fraternity".
