- 40 years on, wow. Vale Bon Scott
Bon Scott signed on to AC/DC as the frontman when their previous frontman refused to go on stage. It was through Scott’s checkered past and rebellious attitude that the band cemented itself as a raucous, crude rock group. Scott, who had been rejected from the army because he was “socially maladjusted,” brought that attitude into AC/DC. And it stuck.

Nothing fake nothing plastic nothing rehearsed with bon scott all natural one of the greatest if not the greatest most natural front men of any band RIP
@@HUNDREDACREWOOD.You have great taste in singers . Every singer you mentioned I have all their albums . Of course we're talking about white rock blues singers and not the black singers because that would take all day. 🙏
@@HUNDREDACREWOOD. Check out my favorite White Rock singers . Elvis. Robert plant. Terry Reid. Ian Gillian . Freddie Mercury. Steven Tyler. Paul McCartney. Paul Rodgers. Ray Gillan . David Cassidy . 🙏
Donny Osmond !!!
@@andrewhayes4914 eh
Conn ! I haven't seen or heard from you in years. Then this shows up. Nice work
The Bon Scott era - the best rock and roll band ever, without a shadow of a doubt. True, there's some great tunes from the Brian Johnson era, but it's the early stuff that's the best, hands down.
...to me they're two different bands....bon's in the realm of a rock sam cooke...complete soul no matter what the topic....brians job is to sing a product..and I like brian...but bons on a whole different level due to being too humble to ever care to be a star...it wasn't his goal....grounded and proud to stay there...the very best.....
Brian had big shoes to fill. He did a great job. But there was and will be only one Bon Scott!
I don't think Brian Johnson wrote any songs, he sucks anyway
@@geraldek4948 Yeh, but did I say, Brian couldn't sing? No I did not. I think you'll find that - to judge from the comments - that Bon Scott's ACDC is judged to be the best by most people. But like I said, Brian Johnson's ACDC is still great, e.g. Back in Black, Flick of the Switch.
hesux @@gracepethel9824
I'm 63. Acdc have been the soundtrack to my crazy life.
Kings of rock.
The highlight of my Rock n roll life: I saw AC/DC with Bon Scott months before his tragic death, I had tickets to see Mahogany Rush/Frank Marino with a band I did not much about AC/DC, they burned the fucking sports arena down
Most high energy show that I’ve ever seen
LIVEWIRE is my #1
STICK THAT IN YOUR FUSEBOX
I’m 62
70s and early 80s were the best times for Aussie music.🦘
I'm 66 and I'm with you
1978 these guys were untouchable....quite frankly the best rock n roll band in the world, comfortably!
I remember listening to power age hmm was about 15 blew my mind kick ass record...
@@bryanbruns4745 that was my first album too
"One of the Best 70' S Rock Band"
yup, that's a FACT, jack!
Van Halen with Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony singing backup vocals was oretty Damn Awesome. It brought out the best of Eddie Van Halen. Check out. Spanked Live. And the other songs on that same concert. Yes of course I Loved AC/DC and i still do but you were talking about a Great Front man. Bon Scott. Yeah. You're right. He was Great
Bon Scott forever.
The greatest! The one and only! Never to be replicated or matched. A real band of real rockers on a real highway to the history books.
Thanks for a great compilation 😎🎸👍
The only man I watch with a constant smile on my face.
Ditto mate 🙉🙈🙊
Hey mate, you got it!
They had nothing to do with punk rock anybody knows that , it was pure good straight up rock and roll music or hard rock . Rest in peace Bon and Malcolm !
He and Ozzy Osbourne
Johnson`s voice has been awful since 1983 and he`s always been boring as hell too.I haven`t bought an AC/DC album since BIB
That voice could chop mountains .. RIP BON SCOTT
No one can compare to Bon Scott RIP
His voice could sink ships
@@antz6130 Except Alex Harvey, Bon Scot said that Alex was his biggest influence......
@@efilrekib4446Every time I listen to the soul group Sam & Dave, especially on the track “Hold on I’m coming”
Those high vocals of Sam Moore, every time I hear that track I hear Bon. Two great singers. Sure miss Bon.🎶
@@Gratefulman1965 Miss Alex too....
Bon Scott was a fucking hero, one of the best singer ever ❤
A WORKING CLASS HERO!
Today is July 9 2020 happy birthday to the great bon Scott one of the greatest singer and frontmen of all time
For sure!!!
Not one of the best.... But the absolute best front man and vocalist of all time.
He would have been 75 on that date this year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And today is July 9th 2021
My favorite AC/DC songs are sung by Bon Scott
Mine too.
Yup yup😊
Same
Typical Aussie yobbos 😂😂😂🥴🥴💩
Absolutely
one of the best front man, ever...
THEE BEST PERIOD
THE
What more can be said? The best lead singer of AC / DC .
Yes
Tout à fait d'accord avec vous c'est le plus grand chanteur de ac DC ET le restera toujours
Bon, to me…is right with Phil Mogg, Phil Lynot, Paul Rodgers, Freddie Mercury and Rob Halford are the greatest vocalists of at least the 70’s. Just looked up all of the songs that Bon wrote/co-wrote and the list is extensive…when you look at those songs, they fit perfectly with the lyrics on Back in Black. I am sure Bon had a massive part of writing the lyrics that Brian sang. Bon, I think, deserves most of the credit for the lyrics on BnB. Vocal tracks that you can listen to and pretty much understand what they are singing, w/o needing the liner notes/sleeve to read along with. Greatest impact on my life as a teenager n the mid to late 70’s. I did my final term paper in journalism class on Bon and that was early 80’s and w/o the information at my fingertips. Microfiche FTW baby! 🤘🤘🤘
What more can be said? Bon was one of greatest lead singers of ANY band
@@photonotavailable7936 Amerikan flag why?
Scott, Bohman, Lennon. 1980 was tough on music
Sad year for music
The soundtrack of my teens. ACDC with Bon.
me too
Rest in peace bon
No WAY! RAISE HELL BON!!!
Thought you said bro 😂
R.I.P Bon Scott aka Ronald Belford Scott the man, the myth, and the king. Bon lived, breathed, and was Rock and Roll. He was Rock and Roll. He had a cute talking voice but a sexy badass singing voice.
100% dedicated to his music. He was the real deal.
The Frontman's Frontman…Mercury, Lemmy, Jagger, all bow to Bon.
Damn right Bon’s got more charisma in his pinky than any other singer has in there whole body
All these years and Cliff has never missed a beat. All these years,absolute perfection with a formula that has worked and continues to work. The ONLY Rock band to stay true to their roots. Absolute legends.
Best rock n roll singer and was treated like crap by the British media
I think every song on their albums could be considered a single, I've never heard a bad ACDC song, they're all number 1 hits as far as their fans are concerned (IMO).
Every song with Bon Scott singing and the first two albums of Brian’s - all classic, all great, all killer no filler
That's right!!
Love Song is pretty terrible as is Show Business. The rest all are fantastic.
@@kevinhisee4265 I disagree. Both of those are Scott era classics
NEVER a Bad song!!
I remember the day I heard he passed. I was devastated- my favorite band. RIP Bon and Malcom
Me too. I was 14, hear it in the Radio.
I also remember the day Bon Scott died. A friend called me on the telephone and said he had just heard it on the radio. I was so sad because I had seen Bon live twice with AC/DC and he was so full of energy and life on stage.
Miss ya bon. We need people like you now more than ever
Intelligent, insightful, humble, Bon was 100% class!
I think "High Voltage" was the 1st AC/DC album I ever heard. But, "Powerage" was always my favorite. RIP Bon Scott.
Gone shootin from powerage is very special.
Their best
Powerage has no match. Favorite ❤
Power Age💞🙏
I saw the power age tour I Allentown pa USA when I was 14
RIP ICONS FOREVER Thank you very much GOD bless Everyone Philadelphia USA 🇺🇸 Nostrovia ❤❤❤
My First concert was Cheap Trick and the Rockets in 1979, Jax Fla .. Then my second was AC/DC , Mothers Finest, Jax Fla... I got to walk around backstage while they were playing..14 years old.. Highway to hell tour.. Totally!! Then They came back the next year with Brian and Back in Black and it didn't feel the same to me.. I'll always be a Bon Scott dude...
I KNOW the feeling, all HOLLOW. To KNOW that Bon had RECORDED You SHOOK me (ALL NIGHT LOOONG) but his voice was ERASED from that track not to mention all of the others. I understand the rerecording with BJ but NOT the erasing of HISTORY!
-"Tell me the bass player´s name from Kiss"
-"I don't know"
Hahahaha... Gene Simmons Ego's on fire!!
I love that too.... 🙉🙈🙊
Actually Simmons was really good to ACDC. Simmons knew how great they were and said it. And took the risk of giving them exposure as a back up, and obviously up staging them.
Gene was good to them cuz he knew they'd draw more money to his pocket! 🎱🏴☠️
How right you are Gene is no fool absolutely knows money lol
@@heatherhoupt814✡️
One of my heroes. A man who lived with no fear.
The best of the best. Fly high Bon.
Every time I listen to Bon it reminds me of much better times when folks were real and a whole lot nicer to each other, wonder why good times don't last Bon???
Bon Scott is what made AC/DC legendary.
@HUNDREDACREWOOD. Bon wrote all the lyrics and after he died the songs weren't as good. All the classic ac/dc songs, apart from a handful, are Bon Songs. Yet without Angus and Malcom the music wouldn't have been as good. Team effort and all that.
@@RobQos Hell, yeah! Team work! They really were better with Bon; listening to his lyrics you`d think he was a rogue wrestler, convict, pimp, hitman, gangster, thug from hell, lol! Someone worse than Alex (Malcolm McDowell) in A Clockwork Orange, lol! Bon was a great writer!
Yep i agree
@@HUNDREDACREWOOD. Bon wrote the lyrics to the songs. The songs were nowhere near as good after he died. Angus dying would have been a huge, huge blow. But Malcom could solo and carry on writing thd music. But maybe they would be nowhere near as good. Honest answer is no one knows.
Yeah but I think that it was Angus in my book
Greatest Frontman there will ever be. He’d still be rocking out today. If he was here. Brian Johnson is awesome without a doubt too
Without a doubt!!
Still love Brian Johnson!!!!!
But yeah Bon Scott was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love Brian Johnson too. Both are two of the greatest front men ever IMO. There’s something bout bon
Bon commentaire mais désolé le meilleur c'est bon Scott ya pas photo
Nah. He'd have quit long before now. He was tiring of touring and the band politics at the time he died.
Bon Scott will always be the best lead singer , period!❤ AC/DC , hands down the best rock concert i have or will ever attend.!! You are sadly missed Bon #Rock God
What made ACDC was Angus's amazing Blues solos and the coolest guitar hooks and riffs. No one was playing like Angus and then to top it off with his Chuck Berry guitar walk and all out crazy rolling around just capped it. You were blown away and a fan forever. ACDDC!! For some reason ACDC is best listened to travelling down the Highway on a Road Trip.
that's what it looked like, for sure. Angus running around the stage being the attraction, the *spectacle* of the show. the hyper guitarist in the school uniform getting noticed. you have to have the "spectacle" if you want to be "spectacular", and Angus got them through the door.
Malcolm kept them there, nailed to the spot with the best damn rock and roll rhythm guitar in the world. Malcolm's right foot was AC/DC's heartbeat, the band died with him, you can't live without a heartbeat.
the body is still twitching, but Accadacca are gone, it's just the nervous system shutting down.
@@michaelthompson4949 it's common knowledge Bon was a Satanist. fairly sure he was a member of the church of Satan. it wasn't a secret, you don't get to have a "gotcha" moment over something someone freely admitted.
Well, Johnny Winter was playing some mean BLUES riffs and FAST too. However, NOBODY played with the HIGH ENERGY, the INTENSITY of Angus. IF it had been Angus who died, that would have been it. ANGUS WOULDN'T ALLOW AC/DC to DIE!
Jail break video is truly a masterpiece in it's time,,saw it once as a young rebel n knew rite away this is the freakin band for me,,45yrs later lm still Riding On keeping straight on Highway to Hell
Still so sorely missed. Probably the greatest rock singer ever. Loud and powerful.
Bon left a legendary legacy with one of the greatest rock bands in history...probably the most consistent live rock band in history...I love the Jailbreak and Let There Be Rock videos.
a great front man , i am surprised. I believe Bon opened doors for other front acts
I grew up in the 60's, I saw AC DC emerge and was a musician myself, and still am hehehehe, Bon scott gave the taste to the grooves which I think structured Pub Rock for Australia, the rest is obvious as it is now history in Aussie Music, it was a sad sad day when Bon Scott passed, as it is with the passing of Malcolm Young, RIP fellars
The best vocalist.
Helps me remember how much I love growing up an Aussie in the 70s/80s. I used to watch countdown as a little kid on the farm and Jailbreak was simply the coolest thing I'd ever seen.
Grew up in the 70s and 80s in the USA, envious of you to of seen these guys starting out. Best rock band ever!
I got to see Bon on the 1979 Highway to Hell tour in Houston ,Texas. I was a senior in high school. 😎
I went to australia for 90 days in 1979-80 to visit all my dads family and meet all our distant relatives. I was only 7 or 8 years old but my most vivid memory is my cousins playing ACDC records for us all day and night. They were very proud of that bands impact on the world.
And there was only one Aussie in the band................
@@efilrekib4446
Australia made AC⚡️DC, AC⚡️DC couldn’t have come from anywhere else - Angus Young
I have Scottish blood, but I’m Aussie like AC⚡️DC, can’t tell we Scottish in anyway unless you were told.
Just listen and look - they are Aussies alright.
Also when they first started there were 3 Aussies.
@@SirSSau Aye whatever...... but there was only one Aussie in the band... Cliff was an English session musician, Bon was from Kirriemuir and the Youngs were from Glasgow..... So there was only one Aussie in the band... Bon said that he copied his style from Alex Harvey.... Ya Bas....
@@efilrekib4446
You forgot the Aussie before Cliff, Mark who got fired for punching one of the young’s, my guess it was Malcolm.
Anyway, you seem to still not get it, so I’ll leave ya with it.
@@SirSSau Aye, ''Go Away Now'' .....
RIP Bon Scott! Greatest front man ever. Gone too soon. You imagine the songs they would have done if he hadn't passed. And then you think of the songs that wouldn't have been recorded with Brian replacing Bon. Rock of my youth!❤
I'm not positive but I dont think we knew much about AC/DC until after Bonn had already died. I feel like they only really got huge in the US after BIB, but watching Bonn even now, brings a little tear to my eye, just to think of how much we missed out on losing him. Love all of the old original albums. I love Brian, and he was great on BIB, but there is no comparison between what came before that albumn and what came after.
We listened to Ac dc before he died than we get a new singer in 1980.
Fortunately Aussie teens rode along with these boys from the beginning. Imagine being in a crowd of approx 200 crammed into a country town hall with these boys at full volume !! It was something as a 15yo I will never forget. RIP Bon
This band helped to define my youth between the ages of 15 and 17. They came to Launceston in Tasmania twice in the seventies, don't know what effect they may have had on my peers but they helped set me on a path of music and debauchery, for which i will be forever grateful.
Right the fuck on, man!
A man Bon SCOTT was real rocker who write lots of real good fights and how to get a bird he was real Star man who have been on the streets real rocker real Star he said I'm not a star my mates are Sometimes I see star's he said out what he was umbel man who is one of thouse star's In the sky great man great SInger and great streets walking man🇫🇮🏴✊👊😜
That's The AC/DC I grew up with.
Imitation is the best form of flattery. Often imitated, never replaced. Bon was the best. Always missed.
Красивый,молодой,талантливый,Жаль,что так печально закончил.
Bon Scott was one of the greatest rock music vocalists and lyricists in the world in his era in AC/DC. One of the best parts of this video/film is at 11:21 when Bon addresses interviewer Ian 'Molly' Meldrum's insistence AC/DC should produce singles...I just love Bon's facial expressions and his insistence AC/DC is NOT a singles band...it is an ALBUM band...we're a ROAD ALBUM band singles don't mean a pinch to anybody you know in OUR band...there's no sense in them...' Bon Scott was a very intelligent man make no error. He knew the rock music industry business very well. He understood world/international music markets. He knew the difference in the music markets of both London/Britain, and Australia well and how it affected on AC/DC. So make no error Bon Scott had an excellent business head.
Saw them in concert with Bon. Had Angus on shoulders and walked up into crowd while he played guitar
Same. Probably the same tour. I want to say late 70’s. Blew me away. Too bad he was a raging drunk.
@@steverobinson3414 i think in Atlanta
@@MrTexxan8 Mine was Fort Worth, TX
I saw em in Whoredessa...wait,nope Midland TX. Sept 1979. Loudest frickin' concert,too
I was in my early 20’s when I found out AC/DC had a different lead singer.. I’m in my mid 30’s now and I’ve gone down the rabbit hole…
IMO Bon Scott, is one of the greatest frontman of all time… also Brian Johnson is probably the greatest replacement of a frontman ever… BUT he can’t lace Bons Shoe… furthermore listening to Bons writing style.. there’s NO GODDAMN WAY he didn’t write back in black…
And You Shook Me…🤨
@@spiralflash6169 YES!!! It's too witty for it's own good
Agree, 1000 percent! 🙋♂️🤘Bon wrote on the road..... he absolutely had 99% of Back in Black in his journal! 🤘
BnB has Bons dna all over it 👍
Yep. Giving the dog a bone !!!! Come on now .. THAT'S BON 100%
I was in USAF basic training when Bon died, we sang Highway to Hell on our squad-run that next morning, RIP, rock will never be this great again. Imagine that run in cadence, "Livin' easy, hut hut, lovin' free, hut hut..." it was so intense.
Not only the best leadsinger but also a wonderful human being.
Love you, Bon❤
Rock "n" Roll bagpipes ,gotta love it.
I'm in the bon camp my older brother turned me on to all the classic bon albums!!! Nothing against Brian but after back and black that did it for me. I respect the talent but with every bon album they reinvented the wheel over and over again with great success in my eyes!! Just my two bits
Bon was so handsome and crazy. Best front man ever
an articulate charismatic conversationalist
He was a Dedicated Musician always was. He was always trying for something new. Something hadn’t been done. Rip Bon. The Metal King
King of Rock
Absolute legend. R.I.P Bon. “You shouldn’t have the mic down there Ian” 😂
Was f'ing criminal whoever left Bon in that car.
I don't care what anyone says, you always look after your friends, even if they don't like it.
A common sight in Los Angeles was Jim Morrison laying in the gutter in vomit and pee. You can`t help some people.
That was cool...sure do miss those days when AC/DC was fresh and forging they're way to the top...the 77/79 era was and, is the the best; the opitamy of what was to come but, unfortunately wasn't to be....god damn it Bon 😥.....gone but not forgotten
As a 56 year old female this is the only band that makes me feel like a 15 year old boy😜
You got that right, for me it is the litle boy who used all his money to buy bon scott bootlegs in the 80s..
The best rock n roll singer of my youth that many French like me have never forgotten. RIP bon !
The greatest Rocksinger of all time
I was 14 I think and in high school on the South Coast of NSW , when this outfit came over to do the college circuits .....it was The Valentines with Bon Scott on vocals....a perfect nobody at that time and singin' pop songs to boot ! My mates told me I even shook hands and exchanged a few words with the future legendary frontman , but I remember very little coz I was downright drunk !!! Little did I know that he would become the frontman of the greatest rock band to roam the planet....AC/DC ❤❤❤❤❤
We miss you so much, Sir !
Bons voice is one of those that's so unique that you recognize it immediately. I've always wished that I could hear Bon singing Back in Black and For those About to Rock... And with modern AI, i think I can 🤔
Please some how share with me if you do
Bon, you were a special man, with a heart that no man could ever have. You were different, but sweet to the people around you. You were a farther, the lead singer of ACDC, and had a family. ❤Rest In Peace Bon❤ -abby😢😢
as a kid that received the album "let there be rock" for my 15th birthday, I can say that AC/DC has never been the same since Bon Scott left us
Wow!Super film👏Whole forty minutes with BON💖 !!!!!
Glad you liked it.
How much do I love AC/DC...let me count the ways. 😍😘 RIP Bon Scott.
Bon Scott was a badass dude! The original vocalist for AC/DC who created the distinctive sound of one of the most funky and rocking bands in music history!
He had a lot of soul! He reminded me of the great pioneer of rock and roll Little Richard.
Not the original vocalist of AC/DC
@RodCalidge
Is there another vocalist other than Bon Scott and Brian Johnson that matters in AC/DC dude?!
@@zroy9263 Dave Evans likes to think so.
ABSOLUT LEGEND ❤ REST IN POWER ❤ TOGETHER NOW WITH MALCOM ❤ 💫☀️🍻🥃
Ladies and gentlemen, Bon Scott & the Volts! ☇🎤🎼🎸🤘
Love the sparks in Bon's eyes. Such a loss.
I was 9 years old when for the first time I've heard Highway to hell to the radio. It was the 1979 and it was a blast for me. What a voice, what a sound, what a rock!
Gotta miss Bon, Rock In Peace.
God bless you Bon.
What rocker and legend of metal music we salute you rock n roll ain't noise pollution
Thank you for the upload cheers from Budapest
Bon is for sure my favorite acdc singer! But flick of the switch is my favorite acdc record. Something about the grittier heaviness of it idk. But yes bon Scott definitely best acdc singer by far. I remember when he passed...cuz I am old af now. A true legend in rock n roll music
Somewhere l have a cassette recorded off the TV when Bon and Angus were on a local cable show here in Atlanta called 'The Entertainment Page' on WTCG which later became CNN! Hosted by the coolest guy in the world, who happened to be named Jim Morrison. This was Atlanta cable TV in 1978, bands that came through would come on the show and take phone calls and so on. Just a wonderful time. I think my brother is on there asking them a question. I remember Angus mumbling 'any women out there?'
Man, those were the days. Period.
No days after 1979 for rock fans.
A kid 18 years old could not conceptualize a show live on "TV", and you could call and talk to one of your heroes.
I thank whoever is In Charge that l was born when l was.
Best performance ever!!
What a Singer
Saw them in the US with Bon, three times one summer. They were relatively unknown, but not for long. He was always very cool, he'd lay back and let Angus have center stage during solos. Great frontman for a great band.
My man Malcolm. The best right hand in the business, the lord of riff, the heartbeat of AC/DC.
....fun fact.......during the LTBR video...Bon actually broke his foot jumping off the riser.......
Yes, watch it carefully, you can see that jump is not going to end well.
Long Way down it looks like
Bon Scott and AC/DC do not have to answer to anybody, they have proved this fact over the last 50 decades.
I have always wondered what we missed if Bon didn't die that day? And they have only grown bigger now to other younger fans now with the internet all over the world.
"And (this is) way overdue" Great job Conn. Keep rockin!
Should have called it “Holes in me shoes”.
Oh Bon...the world has never been the same..nor ever will..
Superb , always been the greatest Rock Band,
Keep going with them classic sounds AC/DC 🎉
AC DC is a rare band in that they had 2 killer singers and kept it going. That said DIrty Deeds is probably the greatest rock album of all time
Dirty Deeds is great but OMG the Powerage album is probably one of the best rock albums EVER!
you meant powerage.
Dirty Deeds is hugely underrated . Largely unknown outside of Australia but we fuckin love it
What a GIANT he is!!! 👍👍
1969 Forever! 🦅 🇺🇸
Rip Bon. We love you ❤
"Bon Scott is the true and the great singer of AC/DC Forever"
The greatest of all time 🎉😢 a force on stage a true rock star
