My 2 favourite quotes by Angus Young, the lead guitarist, (the guy with the hat and the red guitar) are: 1, When questioned about producing 22 studio albums that sound exactly the same, Angus replied, 'No, we produced 23 studio albums that sound exactly the same'! 2, when asked how it felt to be the best guitarist in the world, he said, 'I'm not even the best guitarist in the band!' Angus Young, a true Rock God!
Greatest Rock Anthem of all time? 'It's a Long Way to the Top', by AC/DC. This was sung by the bands original singer, Bon Scott. It's also my daughter's favourite song, and one of mine.
This was shot in a setting that was a replica of the “Thunder cage” from Road Warrior. To get a better experience of AC/DC watch them at Donington or River Plate.
what it's about. I heard once, absolutely unconfirmed, that this song commemorates their trip to FT Hood Texas where they performed. The lyric lines Sound of the Drums, beatin in my heart. Sound of the GUNS, tore me apart. The Guns may be a reference to the heavy guns fired at the Ft Hood gunnery range by M1 Tanks or even artillery. I have heard such sounds from a long training mission in a range in Germany. It does that to you, and when I got home it was a couple of days before I could get to sleep at night without them in the background. I could be completely out to lunch on that. But the song mentions Texas. Ft Hood is in Texas
The song came about from a lightning strike to a plane they were traveling in. Brian Johnson also damaged his vocal chords singing like that and had to have them surgically repaired that's why he doesn't sound "quite" like that these days but he can still hit those high notes phonomally well...I would suggest listening to their newest album pwrup...
An interview about this song was conducted years ago. The interviewer said they came up with the title because their air plane was struck by lightning.
This is my favorite band. NOBODY is better live than Angus Young and AC/DC. They started in 1974 and are touring still this year! I absolutely love watching people become AC/DC fans. Gives me hope. If I could pick a song it would be Ride On. God bless 10:13
Yes someone else knows Ride on, ACDC's only ballad. I was 13 in 1976 when I bought "High Voltage", They used to play at the local council theater hall. it was about $1 to get in. listened to them all my life
@Eskay1206 Ride On is not only my favorite AC/DC song but my favorite song period. I too was 14 (1984) the first time I heard it and it was the first song ever make me cry and think about life.
The guy in the school outfit is Angus Young, one of the founders of AC/DC, he is heavily influenced by Chuck Berry. Hence a lot of the moves are directly from Chuck. Also his brother is on guitar, Malcom, they are originally from Scotland, but emigrated to Australia, along with their lead singer Bon Scott who passed away in 1980, their current lead singer is Brian Johnson. As someone noted watch their River Platte concert live. But if you want vintage Bon Scott AC/DC Dirty Deeds or It's a long way to the top.
Australian Band with Bon Scott the original singer. He past away. Then AC/DC did auditions and Brian Johnson was the first to audition and they picked him right away but they went on with hearing all the others. I've seen them many times. My favorite is Rock n Roll Ain't Noise Pollution. But listen to Bon in the early albums. His voice is incredible.
if you didn't know, but the lead guitarist drove so hard that he had to run to the side of the stage so that they could give him oxygen during some gigs
This song is about winding up in a new town going to a bar hanging out and having a good time and then banging, so amazingly that afterward, it's like you were both struck by lightning
Lead guitarist is Angus Young; his brother Malcom who also plays guitar and is the co-founfer. Angus wears the school boy uniform that he used to wear when he ran home to play with his brother and other mates.
AC / DC was what the Scott brothers came up with . You know how brothers are!! The song title was by Angus he was flying out of Europe and the plane flew thru a lightning storm and was hit by lightning after a while a riff here and a few more cords there was a song when the refrain presented it self ... 93 ish..
You wouldn't think it but lead guitarist doesn't drink or take drugs. I think 2 of the band (guitarists) are brothers and Scottish, original singer (rip) was also scottish.
Both the brothers, Angus and Malcom were equally talented and are revered by their respective fields of Guitar players. Angus is worshiped by the Lead Guitar players and Malcom is a god to the Rhythm Guitar players. Angus was always known as having the baby touch when playing, while Malcom was known to dig in ultra hard a rough as he played his guitar which gave him a very unique powerful sound which most players do not get right because they baby their guitars too much and are not willing to brutally mistreat their instruments (which is understandable).
These guys have been legends for going on 50 years! Angus Young is a rock legend and his schoolboy uniform has been a staple since day one. RIP Bon Scoot and Malcom Young. I’m from Oklahoma and the OKC Thunder come out to this song.
Well those two version of the walk. You can tell from that, this video was done in multiple takes. Plus that means audience participation in the production. You see Angus in the opening. That runway is NOT transparent. Yet from underneath it clearly is. Two takes, edited together. At least two, maybe more. That's is a guess on my part.
AC/DC. - it a term for electrical current Brian Johnson. Vocals Angus Young. Lead guitar Malcom Young. Guitar Cliff Williams. Bass Chris Slade. Drums There are an Australian band that started putting out records in the early mid 70s There original lead vocalist Bone Scott passed away in 1980 and was replaced with Brian Johnson- Both singers have very unique voices Just good old straight ahead bluesy loud rock ‘n’ roll , nothing fancy but always good
This has to be the greatest Blow Job song ever written!!!!!! The lads obviously enjoyed their tours in Texas over the decades and after all our ladies do know how to have/give a good time!!!! Obviously it impressed them enough to make a song about it!!!!! Just saying!!! So says Austin Tx!!!! 😎🍸🤘
Check out an older song of theirs It’s A Long Way To The Top If You Wanna Rock And Roll. It’s from 1975. Different lead singer and Angus (guitar player with school boy uniform) looks like a little kid
Now, you need to react to AC/DC and their original singer, Bon Scott, brings the heat on the song, TOUCH TOO MUCH, BAD BOY BOOGIE, T.N.T. and DIRTY DEEDS DONE DIRT CHEAP. You asked for it. You got it.
River plate festival . Angus young the guitarist. Song for those about to rock. One of the best guitar solo's of history. 18 minutes if i remember correctly . He is a guitar god .
I highly suggest watching Chuck Berry (one of the father's of rock n roll in the 50's) He did a "duck walk" that Angus immulated and made it his own (AC/DC guitarist)
Welcome to our music worlds greatest rock band and they are on tour right now lead singer Brian Johnson is 76 yrs old and iconic guitar player Angus young is 70 yrs old other guitar player is Malcolm Young is his brother he died replaced by his nephew Stevie
Angus Young's character is "The Dangerous School Boy" think Hogwarts and the Weazly Twins. Not sure of Johnson's character. Here is there back story. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC/DC There are NUMEROUS interviews with Johnson, Angus and Malcom (now deceased). Angus always said Malcom was the better guitar player on the band. Oh,... Angus explained in one interview the Band's Name. AC/DC It is a musical PUN A chord, C chord D chord, C chord as played on a guitar.
Angus and Malcolm Young created the band and are the 2 on the guitar's bon scott was the 2nd maybe 3rd singer put them on the map he died but had picked Brian Johnson to replace him Phil Rudd and cliff Williams have played drums in the past
My mom listened to AC/DC while pregnant with me and claims I would kick up a storm. So I guess I was a fan since before birth and never stopped listening to AC/DC now I got my 9 year old niece addicted to them. She will go around the house singing songs word for word without the music on. Her favorites are thunderstruck, hell’s bells, T.N.T and her all time favorite is back in black.
