The one thing that Brian Johnson said that always stuck out to me was, he was never a replacement singer for bon Scott he was there because bon wasn't... Love it
Remember that interview where he told about his first gig with the band? Signs in the audience that said 'Rest In Peace, Bon'. Gave him some anxiety, until he saw one that said 'Good Luck, Brian' Indeed never replaced Bon, just took over where he left off and kept his work & memory alive to this day!
Brian always reminds me of someone who can't quite believe his luck to be where he is now. I grew up less than 3 miles from where he did in Gateshead. I can only imagine the gratitude a guy from Dunston feels for having lived the life he's had so far -it really shows when you hear him talk.
This is heaven of rock and Rhythm ´n Blues! When I was a young lad we listened to all the stuff, but never knew how fucking good it was. Angus and Malcolm are superb, doesn´t matter who is the lead singer! Bon or Brian...the song ist good!
I agree with you buddy! I’ll remember this performance they did with VH1 live in studio back in ‘96 and had never heard that song before I was blown away! They just sound amazing live and is one of kind band! Great song and love the jam !
@@vernmaas3609 totally different type drummer. Slade is technically proficient. Rudd no so technical but more just garage-band straight forward basic groove and he makes it swing. Slade can swing as well but it's more sterile.
Unlike alot of current acts you could stick AC/DC in the corner of a pub with some combo's and a small PA and they could still blow you away. The greatest band on the planet.
This is what it's all about right here , these guys deliver ever single song. No autotune , no backing tracks , no hidden musicians playing , no messing about , just talent and tunes.
In my opinion, this album - Powerage - is their most underrated album. It's every bit as good as Highway to Hell and has stood the test of time very well. This song is one of my all-time favorite songs. So bluesy with a hard, jagged edge. This version kills and Brian does a great job filling in for The Man. Great memories of my youth right here.
For me it's definitely Flick of the switch having 10 awesome songs who always been underrated and rarely played except during the promoting 1983 year then we still hear Sin City or Rock'n'Roll Damnation or Riff Raff in their last concerts
Scott Walker Whenever I hear or see someone lamenting over a guy who's been dead and replaced for nearly 37 years now btw, it makes me recall James Earl Jones chasing Kevin Costner out of his house in Field Of Dreams, " GO Back, BACK to the 60's!!!" Same goes for you imo. But of course in your case it's 'Go back, BACK to the 70s!!!!'
ACDC blew the Stones off the stage at the concert in Toronto for SARS . . funny thing . . Stones asked the boys to open up for them on a tour and they apparently said WHY ?? We sell and draw as much if not more . . Bugger off . . lol
There was a time I found him a bit boring. I liked Simon and Chris, but as I got older, I came to appreciate just what it is Phil Rudd actually does and it seems very simple yet is also very difficult to replicate accurately.
Pissing on Brian is BS....... the man has been humble from the very beginning and belted it out like its his last gig........ would AC/DC still be AC/DC without Brian? Love Bon..and Brian............ to me.. both are AC/DC equally
Back in the day there was no big video screens no laser light shows just in your face rock and roll just like it's presented here🎙🎸🔊🤘 RIP Malcolm and Bon✌
That infectious groove while waiting on Brian to get mic'd up, tooling around with the rhythm and at the beginning when the drums jump in with the bass...like one of the comments earlier mentioned.. you can put these boys in a corner of any pub and they'll lift the roof. You can feel the groove as soon as they began with the notes. awesome.
I love the guy too. He's total class and always has been. I read a book called Maximum Rock and Roll and it shows how respectful he is to Bon and the band. I love his voice. He's got an old black bluesman's voice. Very fitting for AC/DC. :)
damn I love how they did the stage with minimum lightning, those flashes at 2:00 are amazing and Brian absolutely killed this song. Great performance I love how he's enjoying the track, bouncing around and grooving haha BRIAN LEGEND
when Angus picks back in at 5:04 holy shit. i get goosebumps every time. so rich, bluesy. so "right". so much soul. & the following solo, this is a great clip.
That solo is the perfect fit for the groove of this song. Many can play it but few can write it - that's the difference between musicians and guitar players. Genius.
This is the best example of why phil rudd is just the perfect drummer for AC/DC, IMO. Here you can listen so well to his using of charleston and his UNIQUE particular groove. I don't expect much people understand this, but I think that if you listen now to chris slade (which is a really good drummer for me) you can notice the difference. Drumming for AC/DC doesn't need strenght or speed, needs groove.
Chris Slade didn't save anything you are tripping.. the razors edge tour had plenty of hit and miss shows slades lack of groove and always pushing the tempo didn't work, this last tour his playing was horrendous
Saw them a couple of times and what really seperate them is the timing and feel. They are such a tight playing band and that is what drives their sound especially live where so many band just can’t sound like the album. AC DC sounds even better live.
Great version. Brian killed this. Fantastic version. He did a great job in my opinion. and you're right ... not many lead singers, if any, could step up after a tragedy like that with one of the best lead singers in any rock band, and keep it going. Brian did. And he didn't have to imitate Bon's style; he's got his own.
People bagging in Brian. If you understood anything about vocal ranges, you would know that Brian is a baritone (lower range) and bon is a tenor (higher range). The fact that Brian took over for bon is quite impressive if you ask me, because that man put a LOT of effort into it. They're both Badass vocalists with a great sound and I couldn't pick one over the other.
I wish they would have played the slow and mid tempo songs like this live more often... What's Next to the Moon, Night Prowler, Ride On, Love Hungry Man... and yeah, Gone Shootin'. AC/DC is more dynamic and have more variety then they are given credit for.
It's wild. Even in that confined space, Brian Johnson and Angus Young can't help but move to the music. They keep looking to bust out; you can't contain them.
:16 Malcolm's tone is so iconic. Gives me chills when you get to hear his guitar all by itself. Listening to him hammer out the beginning of Jailbreak live is enough to make your day.
That's why Brian is now retired. His technique is killer on the vocal chords, and his are shredded. Lasted almost 40 years though, that's impressive. Never thought he would.
One can't deny the power of AC/DC. Simplistic rock that no one since can duplicate. Tightest band on earth in their prime. They still can't be touched.

Agreed 💯
AC/DC has been blessed with two of the greatest frontmen in rock history.
Phil Rudd is one hell of a drummer... he carries the whole song with his incredible swing...
Acdc rocks
Exactly! It's that word 'swing'. If you watch his arms he almost dances the beat.
Hell yes!
He's so simple but I could watch him for hours and and admire that swing!
Yep 🇦🇺✌️
Probably one of the coolest recordings they have. That intro is EVERYTHING
Reminds me of Beavis and Butthead Do America when they hopped on the bus and Gone Shootin starts
Yeah probably
Angus you're one B.M.F !
We sure miss you Malcom...
This is heaven of rock and Rhythm ´n Blues! When I was a young lad we listened to all the stuff, but never knew how fucking good it was. Angus and Malcolm are superb, doesn´t matter who is the lead singer! Bon or Brian...the song ist good!
Totally agree. Love this song.
Rest in peace Malcolm. Greatest rhythm guitarist in rock history.
they went through their whole lives together,gave us the greatest music,yeahRIP and thank you
Lp
naw close but id have to allen collins, oh ok, well there tied
Fuckin agree with son
........Who wrote most of the riffs
Best ACDC song ever. Phil Rudd's drumming, is so powerful, and he doesn't even look like he's trying hard.
that's exactly why it's working so good, because he isn't trying hard, just what comes natural.
It's the same beat for every song 🤣 and I'm fine with that but it is what it is. That's acdc
I agree with you buddy! I’ll remember this performance they did with VH1 live in studio back in ‘96 and had never heard that song before I was blown away!

2020 now, man this never gets old
Keep on rocking in the quarantined world
Like good old red wine
So true!
No, it sure doesn’t! True icons of rock that’ll always be popular.
Never. Greatness never gets old. It gets Greater. AC/DC.
Greatest rock & roll band ever! Period the fucking end!
Sorry dude...Bon was better!

Hell Yeah
Sure does.
Not like KISS who have to lip sync these days
Jammin to this tomorrow.
Rock on people ✊

This riff is a totally addictive, wonderful!
@Stouffer It's AC/DC mate. RIP MAL AND BON 👊👊💙💙
It is so rhythm and bluesy
every acdc song is addictive...............
@Stouffer it's just Blues based. That's why.
Isn't it though!
I could listen to AC/DC play one single chord for about 10 hours straight, and not get bored. Just sensational.
I can name that AC/DC song in 1 cord.
i can play that riff all night on guitar...the best track of theirs in my book.
ARE YOU A DIE HARD FAN ❤?
It's how they play that 1 chord is why they're so unique. Any band can play it, but can't play it like AC/DC.
The minute and a half warm up they played is better than 90% of the bullshit they play on the radio now
More like 99.99%
EXACTLY!! Name one "band" anyone will remember 20 years from now. I'll wait.
I love love love Phil’s drumming. Absolutely perfect.
yes!! always have.
YES!
He's my biggest influence ever.He makes the difference. Compare with other Ac/Dc drummers.
@@BeardedLad89 Simon is pretty great too
Phil is the perfect fit for AC/DC....no disrespect to the orher drummers...but Phil stands out as the best.
Malcolm Young (RIP) is one of the greatest riffmasters in rock history. Rock God status.
Ангус, не Мальком
Согласен
@@user-bt6rk6ht8zMalcolm Passed away
perfect song for a long drive
Journey 😊
Powerage is still the greatest AC/DC album ever.
Amen to that. It cant be equalled. A hidden gem for so long, people are finally realising that it is the essence of rock n roll.
I agree! It took me some time to realize but after listening to all of their stuff i can indeed say that Powerage is their best album.
Can confirm. Track for track their other albums are awesome, but just can’t top it.
YES!
Agree.Bon was on his gsme !!
That Phil Rudd glides as smooth as a freight train .... he will forever be unmatched. Consistent simplicity.
There was a time I found him a bit boring. I liked Simon and Chris, but as I got older, I came to appreciate just what it is Phil Rudd actually does and it seems very simple yet is also very difficult to replicate accurately.
@@aaronleverton4221 great comment...I agree 100%...
@Aqeel Asif I've been watching AC/DC videos since 1988, there isn't an official one I haven't seen.
AC/DC The best rock band in this world.
yes but a few old southern rock bands i still really like but rock ac dc all the way
Amen
And the next
Top ten for me for sure. Zep or The Who for me.
Even the best rock and roll band ;-)
Just hearing them warm up would blow other bands away!
So raw, the best!
AC DC best rock band ever. Plain and simple.
1:32 the most addictive riff you will ever hear
Best. Band. Ever!
ARE YOU A DIE HARD FAN ❤?
This is fantastic, i miss this AC/DC era when they were playing rare songs like Dog Eat Dog, Gone Shootin, Girls Got Rhythm...
They very much went back-to-basics after The Razor’s Edge and stayed that way, smart move
You can literally see the rhythm flowing through Malcoms body. It looks so cool. So natural.
The entire rhythm section is absolutely brilliant
To this day there is no rhythm section like this it’s perfection
And the whole band just had it
Love for ever
A groove worthy of The Rolling Stones. So much feel. Rudd is a metronome with a heart and Malcolm's right hand should be bottled.
Absolutely Awesome!
No doubt!! All your remarks are spot on!!!
Have always loved Phil Rudd’s style but Cliff Williams fits him like a glove too
I can't think of two other guitar parts that work this great together - this song is killer.
These guys blow the Stones away man, not even close
Pissing on Brian is BS....... the man has been humble from the very beginning and belted it out like its his last gig........ would AC/DC still be AC/DC without Brian? Love Bon..and Brian............ to me.. both are AC/DC equally
My sentiments exactly... it's privilege to have both \m/
you sir are a genius man fuck axle bon and brain for life man
Thunderstruck
prowlie I agree Brian has a lot of respect Bon, both are AC/DC family.
prowlie agree 100% my friend!!
Love everything bout ac/dc wot a band, and down to earth with it.... AWESOME...

This must have been one of Malcolm's favorite riffs, he really lays into it.
Hands down the greatest pure rock and roll bad FUCKING ever
Back in the day there was no big video screens no laser light shows just in your face rock and roll just like it's presented here🎙🎸🔊🤘 RIP Malcolm and Bon✌
Malcolm Young is the goat of rhythm guitar. He held it down and Phil and Cliff are just excellent. So locked in.
Sadly, they are no longer there.

I know this is one of Bon's greatest songs - but i just love this version so much as well. What a freaking groove!!!
It bugs me that Brien would even attempt it Saint.
Phil Rudd is a machine!!! I love this track. Perfect Rock 👌😍
Why is this song never on radio? Top 10 rockers ever.
People ask if I prefer Brian over bon,when the truth is I prefer them both.🤟
Love the beginning Malcolm and Angus guitar riffs. Malcolm is sadly missed. Rockin in heaven.
Malcolm was the best rhythm guitar in the rock and roll world. He is missed. Saw many bands in my youth but I missed seeing them and I regret it.
This is one of the best AcDc songs ever. RIP Malcolom...
Andres Svarne 👌🏽
Agree
agree!!!
Try the version of this song in 1977.
You can find it on RUclips
A fantastic groove, among the best AC/DC songs
You are fking right. I think this is Bons Back in Black
Best Rhythm guitar award goes to Malcolm Young
I could play the start of this song a million times
Incredible groove. AC DC are incredible. Nobody does it like this.
AC/DC is an unstoppable force
Brian is fucking class. A total gent. Someone said humble and that nailed it. Yeah, Bon was the man. But Brian took over and carried on. Love the guy.
I love the guy too. He's total class and always has been. I read a book called Maximum Rock and Roll and it shows how respectful he is to Bon and the band. I love his voice. He's got an old black bluesman's voice. Very fitting for AC/DC. :)
Damn, must be the most underrated album ever, one of my favorites.
That rhythm section....lazy backbeat drums. Solid bass and of course Malcom drives it like a fucking tank......awesome!
Such a funky groove.
malcolm's tone... incredible, just wow
This whole VH1 concert needs to be an album!

Gotta love the octave lick he does at 0:54 , simple but so damn tasty :) would be nothing without Malcolm's great playing tough ^^

Thank christ for ac dc 😊😊😊

Best band of all time.Saw them first time 84,monsters of rock in Stockholm.
Even though they're only playing to a few cameras and a production crew, they still kick ass.
ThE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD!!!
Great artists all have their own signature. AC/DC's certainly got that.
at around 5mins when it sounds as though its ending.....and Angus cranks it up again-what a tone and then the rest kick in-pure rock n soul.
I can’t even put into words my passion for this band man
