I love AC/DC. I love rock music in general. I love loud music and it is without a doubt, and a pretty good fact, that AC/DC wouldn’t have been so successful had it not been for Bon coining a very large number of their best known hits.
I’m not going to bother compiling a list of my favourite tracks, as Ultimate Classic Rock have done that for me – see here: http://ultimateclassicrock.com/best-bon-scott-acdc-songs/ – but what I did want to do is list some of the music he was involved with before AC/DC came about.
Bon was the eldest member of AC/DC when he joined, but probably had the most experience out of them all.
He had sung in three bands prior to AC/DC.
- The Spektors (co drummer and singer)
- The Valentines (vocals)
- Fraternity (lead vocals, recorder)
I don’t think Bon Scott gets enough credit for his songwriting or the impact he had on AC/DC after he died.
Hope you enjoyed reading this.
