This song is about a venereal disease - "The Jack" is Australian slang for Gonorrhea, which is also known as "The Clap." AC/DC lead singer Bon Scott explained the origin of the song in a 1976 interview with Sounds. Said Scott: "We were living with this houseful of ladies who were all very friendly and everyone in the band had got the jack. So we wrote this song and the first time we did it on stage they were all in the front row with no idea what was goin' to happen. When it came to repeatin' 'She's got the jack' I pointed at them one after another." Added guitarist Angus Young: "After that, wherever we did the song the girls in the audience would run to the back of the hall."
Jamel I just have to say this. Everyone focuses on Angus. He is one of my favorite heroes as a guitar player myself. The real props have to go to his brother Malcom. Wrote almost all of the songs and a true genius on rhythm guitar.
Jamel... Mate, even though they’re mostly of Scottish heritage, AC/DC, or as we know them here in Australia... “ACCA DACCA”, are rock royalty here & their live concerts are a true experience you’ll never forget 🤘😝🤘With all due respect to Brian, most Acca Dacca fans I know would prefer the Bon Scott version & brother, if this video doesn’t get blocked, I hope we can see the original video for “Jailbreak”, released in the mid 70’s (1976 if I recall correctly)... THAT is one you won’t forget in a hurry... All the best mate, from 🇦🇺Australia🇦🇺 ✌️😎✌️
It's a trip to see Bon in the Valentines when they're performing "Build Me Up Buttercup," to know that's him on "Squealer," "Jailbreak" and "What's Next to the Moon." There is NO evidence of what he'd later become. Lol. BTW, for my money, like a lot of others, Powerage with "Down Payment Blues" and the rest is the one ACDC album I could hear every day.
Angus Young is 66 now, so was 55 when this was recorded - the most amazing part to me is that he's still (or at least was then) running around the stage like that, and doing that strip tease! I saw AC/DC twice back in their heyday in the early-80's (For Those About to Rock and Flick of the Switch tours), and I had no idea Angus would still be playing that schoolboy almost 30 years later! :)
Its pretty wild. Imagine trying to explain to an alien what is going on in that moment. You have 60ish thousand maybe more people screaming for a 55 year old man, dressed like a schoolboy, who has ditched his guitar in the middle of a song to strip his clothes off.
Turn the music up... Unleash your inner rock chick... & drive your neighbours up the wall with this great form of “stress relief” ✊️😝🤘. My neighbours ALWAYS know when I’m home as they can often hear some of AC/DC’s “finest” blaring out of my stereo speakers 🔊🎸🎸🎸🔊
Seeing AC/DC live is a treat beyond comparison. I have seen them 6 times since 82, never a bad show. I HIGHLY recommend seeing them when they come back. Even though Malcolm is no longer with us, his nephew Stevie does a FANTASTIC job in his place. You will not be disappointed.
Jamel, I've seen them live three different times. Every one of them was at the Barton Coliseum in Little Rock, Arkansas. A fairly small venue for such a big band, it only held around 10k people fully packed. These guys blew the roof of that place off!!!
I’ve seen AC/DC since the back in black your in 1981. They get better and better each tour. I can’t wait to see them again in 2022. Taking my teenage daughter with me this time. It will be a great show.
This was a GREAT reaction and now you need to do "Let There Be Rock" Live at River Plate to fully understand how much Angus is not only adored, he is WORSHIPPED by the fans!!! It's a great song and something REAL special happens in the River Plate performance! You won't regret it!! ;) ;)
I am SOOO excited to see your reaction to this one!! It's epic and off course Angus kills it!! He's adorable, plus it's such a FUN song and The River Plate crowd is AWESOME!!
@@jamelakajamal If they had told you that, they would've been wrong :D :D :D ;D In all seriousness, there is a large catalog of AC/DC with Brian singing, but precious few with Bon Scott, since he passed way too young. And many consider Bon Scott to be one of the greatest Front-men for a rock band, ever!
I'll never forget the first time I heard this song: Live, at one of the Day On Green concerts in the Oakland Coliseum, summer of 1978, with Bon Scott as lead singer....
@@acidgravy1 ... EXACTLY!!! Thankfully, it’s no longer a problem for me (I’m married), but back in my single days, chasing after single women, often those with “reputations” (of the nasty kind), was like playing a single man’s version of Russian roulette as you often just wouldn’t know WHAT you’d end up with at the end of a big night out... Whether it’s in your pants or laying in the bed next to you 😱😱😱. You roll over, see a total stranger laying next to you & you’re thinking “I don’t remember bringing that home” & then wondering why it feels like somebody had poured itching powder down the front of your pants 😖😖😖
@@gerardroll6468 Well, that sounds kinda familiar lol. But it was pretty dumb not using condoms at that time. So if somebody asks me if I have kids I always have to answer „No…as far as I know.“
@@acidgravy1 ... Despite being young & crazy enough to try anything once (at the time), I ALWAYS carried “necessary supplies” to combat that issue & kept things safe at all times. Aside from waking up next to girls I could barely remember meeting & nursing monster sized hangovers, quickly followed by “chats with Jesus” in the toilet bowel, I never had kids at the time. Now, I’m much older & have one on the way in just under 3 months. My wife & I got married last year (she’s a cop) & are looking forward to being parents ☝️😁👍
As long as the Bon Scott version is the legendary one, this live version in River Plate is incredible. The entire show was something unique, the argentinian crowd is well know for being one of the best alongside with Mexico. Unfortunately I was too young to go to this show, VAMOS AC DC CARAJO!!!
There are actually two versions of this song by Ac Dc. The studio version has one set of lyrics, and the live version with a different set of lyrics, both sung by Bon Scott.
The “Jack” is exactly what you think it is Jamel 😂 if you get a chance, check out the original album version by Bon Scott. The lyrics reference a game of cards, although the meaning of the song is the same :). Love your vids man!
I seem to remember a story about an interview with AC/DC where they were asked why they didn't do a ballad like all the other rock bands of the era were doing and they answered that they had done a ballad, and it was The Jack! :D
A song like this ISN’T being enjoyed as it should be unless you have the cops responding to multiple noise complaints from your neighbours... For not having it on LOUD ENOUGH!!! ROCK ON EVERYONE 🤘😁🤘
Lol I live right next door to a Seventh Day Adventist church - suffice to say, they fucken praying for me on the daily 🤣 I have a wicked vinyl set-up, massive speakers, and every "offensive" song known to man. I play 'em all as loud as I can whenever I see the Left Footers around haha!
@@christyzeeaquarianated2600 ... I love it 🤘😜 I have a pretty decent sound system to deter them but have another “back up” option... My attack trained German Shepherd who’s VERY good at keeping away “unwanted visitors” like door-to-door salesmen & religious followers. He’s my wife’s work partner (she’s a police K9 officer) & he lives with us. We have to warn our friends when they visit to NOT wear “white, button up” shirts or else our dog will literally “tear them a new one”.
Angus does a strip tease at every single ACDC concert. I started going to ACDC shows since the early 80's and Angus doing the strip tease has been a part of every single ACDC concert I have ever gone to.
The Girl’s Got Rhythm, Beatin’ Around the Bush, If Ya Want Blood, Sin City, Riff Raff, Problem Child, Have A Drink On Me, Given the Dog A Bone, Dog Eat Dog, Kicked In the Teeth, and High Voltage
All this time, I thought this song was about playing cards lol. "She gave me the queen, she gave me the king, she was wheeling and dealing just doing her thing"
AC/DC Live At River Plate was recorded in Buenos Aires in December 2009 when nearly 200,000 fans (over 3 sold-out nights) attended this show. At the time the stadium could accommodate 65,000+ people.
It was Bon that said that if anything happened to him get Brian. I very much doubt he said “ just don’t let him sing any of my songs”. If Brian was good enough for Bon and the rest of the band….
There are 2 versions. Both are great interpretations. Its just a fun song. The guitar work is fantastic. I prefer the card shark version myself but this other version is not a sleeper. I'm cool with at least 97%+ of this bands music.
When you welcome us in, I feel like I'm coming to a new and exciting church, the church of ROCK AND ROLL!! THANK YOU BROTHER "J" PEACE KEEP UP THE EXCELLANT CONTENT, MY FRIEND!!
I’m soooo excited for this! I hope it’s River Plate! The best! 🤞🏼🤞🏼 let’s see! Edit: you cut a bit too short but no biggee - Brian took off in full run down the runway- I believe this is Angus’ clever way to strip down once he gets hot from all the lights,etc.. Without having to leave the stage- works and is entertaining- like you, one of my favs! And I LOVE AC/DC! River Plate all the way!! That fawnky, groovy vibe! 💙🤟🏻👍
Their concert finale is always 'For Those About To Rock (We Salute You)'.......do the River Plate version of this Jamel.....it is a lesson to all rock bands on how to close a show! An absolute banger.....which includes on stage canons! It's a must see.
This was always a highlight at every show. The crowd just loved it. I'd looked forward to it. Just like seeing the big inflatable Rosie on stage. Still the most fun you can have at a concert. It's over before you know it.
I love ya but your killing me with not checking to see if Bon Scott did the song before Brian. Anything before the album Back in Black was performed by Bon.
@@gerryconwayvoice yeah bro. I was agreeing with you. I was referring to your comment correcting the guy that said it was syphilis. That's why i said usually the sing at least once "she's got the clap".
I know the song. But have never seen this video. Just great. Angus such a character with insane talent. You know it’s hot wherever they are. The Jack is the clap.
I agree -- Bon brings a saucy, droll humor to his delivery that elevates the song -- and I was a little worried when I saw this was gonna be a recent live performance, but Brian is giving a lot more vocally than I think I've heard him do before, so, imo, it's not too bad, all things consider.
Man people hate on Brian Johnson to much imo. While Bon Scott is the best and better imo, weve never heard Bon sing black in black or rock and roll aint noise pollution either. Pretty goddamn big shoes to fill and Brian fills them pretty damn full I think..
@@gerryconwayvoice very terrible tragedy, like Ronnie can zant in the plane crash, SRV In the helicopter, Duane allman on the motorcycle, jimi and his drugs, Rory Gallagher and his botched surgery. Man we’ve lost some awesome guitar players way to soon imo
The Jack- Gonorrhea. They wrote the song back in the mid 70's when they were living in a house in Australia with kind of a harem of women and gonorrhea went through the house. At least the old drummer and Bon got it. This is second hand, but it was their old manage who sounded serious and reliable. Also, heard when they sang this song the women who would sit in the front would run to the back of the venue. You have to watch the Donington live '91 and you'll see what Angus used to do before. Lol
I saw AC/DC in Memphis Tennessee. Electric! Angus showed you what the Jack was. It was a woman who played with a man's soul because she had something up her sleeve.
The clap.... plain and simple.... The first time I saw these guys was in 78 at Comisky Park in Chicago. They were fill ins for UFO, who canceled at the last minute... These guys came in and blew the top off the house. Angus did his striptease on top of the PA to Bad Boy Boogie, and the crowd went nuts. Then, Angus and Bon Scott went thru the crowd, Angus on Bon's shoulders. Bon slapped me 5 as they went by... Aerosmith and Forgiener followed them, which was really a tough act top. Thanks for sharing that one, J... Loved your reaction...

Finally, somebody who's payin attention!
And all the rythm section.
RIP Malcom😢
the part where its just the rythm section of this song live is so good, its so bluesy and perfect i love it
Angus said as much the same thing.
He knew his brother, and what he meant to the band.
One of the best concerts ever recorded. Every song is priceless!
Never been to a bad ACDC concert. They're an amazing live act.
Good Girl! 👌
🤟AC⚡️DC 🤟
AC/DC has some of the best Blues Rock songs I've ever heard.
another bluesy ac/dc is "Ride On" with Bon Scott singing
That is a great song but you always see the reaction singing it instead which is a shame

Totally. Gotta listen right now. 😊
Seems to be just the 4 of us that have any sense or musical taste. Why is Ride on not recognized as one of the greats?! XD

Hi Gerard, love from Melbourne, mate❤️🇦🇺
"The Jack" is what we, as Americans , call "The Clap."
Really 😆
React to the studio version. Bon Scott sang it. And it had more, and different verses.
Had to. ATCO wouldn't have issued it otherwise.
The better version for sure.
Bon sung this version also. It's on the 1978 live album "If You Want Blood".
4 clap that song was richly by their first singer Bon Scott Brian Johnson and great to sound just like the old saying
Bon Scott's version is definitely better
Who can DISLIKE THIS?! 🧐😭🤣 🎸✌️🔥

Much as I like Brian Johnson only Bon Scott can sing this song, his humour comes out in spades, excuse the pun.
Brian's voice fits the bluesy feel though, that's why both eras are so great as both singers bring their own style to the band.

One of my faves. I just love bluesy music. Loved seeing Jamels shoulder dancing tonight 😍💃🦘
OMG! Jamel! I am so stoked you are doing this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love it!!!!!!!! She's got the Jack!
NGL he's not lookin too bad for bein in his 60s with no damn shirt on
It's not an AC/DC show til Angus strips down.
This song fits the originator, Bon Scott, so much better than Brian.
Thats what I JUST SAID , To me Ac Dc Is NOT Ac Dc With out BON
But he's dead
@@steveschellenberg7485 Doesn't stop him from reacting to him. J/J has reacted to many artists who have passed.
I love how you’re so deep and spiritual about this song but you nailed this interpretation
Seen the Hells Bells concert!!
My all time fav rock band!
Thank you!!
For those that don’t know “The Jack” was syphilis.
"The Jack" is Australian slang for Gonorrhea
@@gerryconwayvoice lol some people.... one of the verses in the live version is "she's got the clap"
@Jon Williams if you're tellin me that i know. That's kinda my point. It's not syphilis.
@@rosshixon6796 The clap (Gonorrhea)

@@gerryconwayvoice yeah bro. I was agreeing with you. I was referring to your comment correcting the guy that said it was syphilis. That's why i said usually the sing at least once "she's got the clap".
Amazing isn't it? One of my favorites and please listen with Bon Scott, is amazing too.
Love this ty for your reaction. One of the best bands in concert.
I was a dancer this was my last set ALWAYS.... Yes that kind of dancer it always brought in the cash!
Man, I keep seeing people doing old school AC/DC and get all excited, only to find it's Brian and not Bon.
Agree
Best when performed by the late great Bon Scott... review that one!
Still gets a thumbs up, though. They don't write 'em like this anymore.
I know the song. But have never seen this video. Just great. Angus such a character with insane talent. You know it’s hot wherever they are. The Jack is the clap.
Rest in Peace Malcolm Young 🤘🤘🤘
Thank you Malcolm..
You should listen to the Original AC DC Version of "The JacK" by Bon Scott. 1000X better.
I agree -- Bon brings a saucy, droll humor to his delivery that elevates the song -- and I was a little worried when I saw this was gonna be a recent live performance, but Brian is giving a lot more vocally than I think I've heard him do before, so, imo, it's not too bad, all things consider.
Man people hate on Brian Johnson to much imo. While Bon Scott is the best and better imo, weve never heard Bon sing black in black or rock and roll aint noise pollution either. Pretty goddamn big shoes to fill and Brian fills them pretty damn full I think..
@@andrewmccallum9943 I never hated on Brian. He's amazing. Just preferred Bon. Too bad he choked on his vomit when he passed out in the car.
@@gerryconwayvoice very terrible tragedy, like Ronnie can zant in the plane crash, SRV In the helicopter, Duane allman on the motorcycle, jimi and his drugs, Rory Gallagher and his botched surgery. Man we’ve lost some awesome guitar players way to soon imo
@@andrewmccallum9943 We still have Clapton, the greatest ever, IMHO
No question, and no offense to Brian Johnson, but Bon Scott era AC/DC blows away the later version...live, or studio...
The Jack- Gonorrhea. They wrote the song back in the mid 70's when they were living in a house in Australia with kind of a harem of women and gonorrhea went through the house. At least the old drummer and Bon got it. This is second hand, but it was their old manage who sounded serious and reliable. Also, heard when they sang this song the women who would sit in the front would run to the back of the venue. You have to watch the Donington live '91 and you'll see what Angus used to do before. Lol
This is still my favorite song. Safe in New York City is very close too.
I’ve seen AC/DC 5 times. I wouldn’t mind seeing them again.
Oh man this a song about a dirty girl
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE AC/DC SONG OF ALL TIME!!!! 🤘🤘🤘
Angus Young is a showman....
Angus Young is a Bad Ass....
Angus Young and ACDC will be remembered for Generations long after were all gone......
You are correct Jamel, you don't want to put your finger on it lol. Originally about a STD
You crack me up Jamal lol lol. I just love you and your channel bro!! Please keep on rockin us out, and we WILL keep great music alive
I saw AC/DC in Memphis Tennessee. Electric! Angus showed you what the Jack was. It was a woman who played with a man's soul because she had something up her sleeve.
Saw them in Detroit when I was 17. Great concert! Great stage show!
Jamal an old ACDC song co-written by Bon Scott you can hear the Bon Scott version If You Want Blood you got it Alive album
The clap.... plain and simple.... The first time I saw these guys was in 78 at Comisky Park in Chicago. They were fill ins for UFO, who canceled at the last minute... These guys came in and blew the top off the house. Angus did his striptease on top of the PA to Bad Boy Boogie, and the crowd went nuts. Then, Angus and Bon Scott went thru the crowd, Angus on Bon's shoulders. Bon slapped me 5 as they went by... Aerosmith and Forgiener followed them, which was really a tough act top. Thanks for sharing that one, J... Loved your reaction...
They always end their concerts with "For Those About To Rock" (We Salute You) I highly recommend you checking that out
Angus sounds bluesy awesome !!
She's got the Jack; prevalent in to the " me 2" you know what you did!
