Bon Did NOT sing in falsetto. Not that he never used it but his regular singing voice was that high naturally. Brian though does. Which he's great at. Both are/were awesome!
Bon Scott was the only front man in rock history who could drink a ton of serious alcohol and go on stage in concert and not forget the lyrics and miss a note. Not even the great Diamond David Lee Roth could pull that off. Bon was a legend.
Nah nah I don't think so man! check alice cooper goes to hell then you know what I'm talking about! (sometimes I drink more than I need until the TVs dead and gone)
He was a Scotsman who lived in Fremantle Western Australia. Before he was in AC/DC he was in the Spectors , the Valentines and Fratenity where he wore clothes and was also a drummer in a pipe band. We love him in WA! 🇦🇺🙏🏻🇦🇺🙏🏻🇦🇺🙏🏻
some people say they wouldn't have hit it big without Brian but I think that's bullshit every album they was getting more popular I think they would have even been bigger if that's possible with Bon
Kelly Rodgers Bon Scott did all the hard work got them all the attention that they needed set it all up for Brian and the rest of the band hell it's been heavily said Bon Scott wrote MOST OF THE Back in Black album and I truly believe that shit it was all there for them they already had the fans sure Brian stepped up and did great but Bon would of been the absolute GREATEST.............
David Knoll its hard rock, rock n roll is mostly another genre, only some elements and influence, like a hurriganes from finland, its complete rock n roll band, yes best hard rock band in this world, that i am agree totally
I believe that Bon would have not only been a great guy to be around, but also a great friend to have. Let me set the record straight on a couple of things: yes, his autopsy does list the cause of death as "death by misadventure", but it ALSO lists "acute alcohol poisoning." The other thing is that he passed out in a friends car. The guy drove Bon to his (Bon's) flat, grabbed his keys, opened the door with the keys, went back out to get Bon, and in the meantime the door had closed, locked behind him, with Bon's keys now IN the flat. So the guy then takes Bon to HIS flat, calls up a friend of Bon's (after trying to lift his unconscious body weight out of the car and not being able to) and the female friend tells the guy to just leave Bon in the car, throw a blanket on him and leave a note telling Bon which flat the guy lives in so that when he wakes up, he can come up there. The guy did all of that. It was just a horrible accidental death. Its not like the guy didnt try to get Bon out of the car, plus the temperature that night was at freezing and Bon had also been seeing a doctor for several months for liver treatment. I hope that clears some misconceptions up for people that come on here and watch this. Love AC/DC, not looking to turn this into a "Bon vs. Brian" debate, but IMO, AC/DC lost something special in their music when Bon died.
David Vincent Hey, and I can respect your opinion! They did become a totally different band when Bon died and Brian came in. Even Malcolm, who was always the undisputed leader of AC/DC has said that they would have probably never become what they did without Bon's influence. But I personally enjoy both versions, although they really lost me after "Flick of the Switch." "Ballbreaker" had a few decent songs, and "Rock or Bust" had about 3 that I like, but for me, it will always be "Powerage", "Highway to Hell", "Back in Black" as my 3 favorites. Notable mentions: "Guns for Hire", "Whole Lotta Rosie" (killer, absolutely killer), "Spellbound", "Hard as a Rock", "Jailbreak" (another fucking killer!) "Go Down" and 'Badlands."
I regret that I never got the chance to witness AC/DC in concert with Bon at the realm ...I have my LET THERE BE ROCK dvd... But let's face it AC/DC would never have been able to carry on with another singer other than Brian Johnson. Brian worked very hard and earned the respect and Loyalty of fans worldwide.. Anybody see the RRHOF ceremony when Steve Tyler inducted the band??.. The fact that they had Bon's nephews onstage to accept the award is a testament to how humble AC/DC is.
I have personally meet Brian and he is really cool, nice and a great showman, but dam Bon Scott was the only AC/DC front man in my mind, to me they are just a tribute band now. RIP BON you fucking legend
Bon Scott was a bit of a pirate he came after his women with a sword and he didn't care how many layers of lingerie they had on Damn!!!! Bon Scott was the man damn how I envied if reincarnation is real when I die I hope I come as him because It's always been my dream to be a badass rockstar 🤘🤘
Bon Scott was the voice of acdc i saw bon in 1978and it was unbelievable the whole band was and i do like Brian Johnson he took them the rest of tthe way love that band
Bon, sang blues, rock and soul all in one coming from his soul. AC/DC would've been grateful to have Bon. Never another like him. Rest in Paradise Bon Scott
Booze and drugs take away the blockage that most people have to go jump on the stage and sing from the toes. I think alot of talents never get out when you stay sober.
Yeah, partly true but as a performer I used to rely on drugs and alcohol and after about 15 years my bad habits made my performances worse and worse, I literally had to learn to feel OK being sober which took a few years to get the hang of. Now I'm 4 years sober I'm playing better than ever, my focus is much better
Just slept in his car? Ive had a problem with that for a while. I frequently dive to the bottom of a bottle of Jim beam black, and ive NEVER been drunk enough to want to lie down and pass out in the back of a fuckin limo, in 30-something degree temperatures. I'm not saying there was foul play involved, but the actual truth of the story about that night and his death has never even been gotten close to. Too many of those people he was with have thier reasons for lying about what happened. And the authorities never gave a good fuck because he was just another dead rocker.
Yea he was even someone before ac/dc has started and acdc haven't invented something nu and did not invented the hard Rock genre I'm a big fan specially of the bon scott era but Brian is great too but to me they are much overrated mc5, the stooges, Hendrix, sabbath, purple has rocks long time before
BON and BRIAN equally good ,but have you meet the greatest Australian front man ,rock legend, lyracist ,and performer .he was the front man in the easy beats ,he was the man who BON ,MICK JAGGER,AND OTHERS STUDIED and copied ,he was "STEVIE WRIGHT".
2:18 its called Mixed voice Its chest voice , distorted up pushed to their head . Falsetto is another animal . With no folds vibrating , is disconnected .
Ian Fraser Kilmister (Burslem, Staffordshire, 24 de diciembre de 1945-Los Ángeles, California, 28 de diciembre de 2015), más conocido como Lemmy Kilmister, fue un músico, compositor, cantante y bajista británico, conocido por ser el líder, fundador y vocalista de la banda de heavy metal Motörhead.
I don't know about him hitting paydirt when he joined the band, unless you mean as far as something else to shoot for and staying out of trouble maybe. Because they didn't really make a lot of money until Highway to Hell got big and when he died there was only 30,000 in his bank account. And while a lot of this could be true aspects of how the man was I think a lot of stuff has been embellished over the years, because he rarely hung around the other guys when they was not recording or on tour
The great Paul Kossoff on guitar, Bon up front , John Bonham on drums, Entwhistle on bass, John Lennon and Elvis on backups , and Marilyn the groupie. xx
lemmy saided best He was singing like he was fucking somebody....best description from best man for other best man....Lem and Bon 2 of my absolute favorits. RIP
When Bon Scott sings, it's like he is singing just for you. And it looks like he is gonna jump right out of the screen into your living-room! Bon Scott, I will always miss you! R.I.P. Bon.
Amen brother Bon could sing he had range Brian Johnson was a screamer. One great album Back in Black the rest of them to me mediocre-at-best. I saw AC DC 22 times thank God I saw Bon Scott 3 times
@@jameszannino9404 what do think of 'shook me all night long' ? I think that was written by Bon was in the US with his GF. Went to do the next sound recording and "looked good was looking after himself' then......... back in black. ?
How many guys have you been around that drank themselves to sleep every time you went out? You can't babysit especially if you're drunk yourself. This was all Bon's fault.
Bon Scott is and was hard rock father and best frontman in AC/DC, a whole hard rock history best hard rock man, i respect bon scott memory, highway to hell lp and t shirt, highway to hell is best memory ever, absolutly my favorite album ever, been honestly
I'll never forget seeing AC DC with Bon Scott in 1978 when I was 17 years old they opened for Ritchie Blackmore's rainbow where I lived they were so good it was jaw-dropping I don't think anybody knew what to do they blew rainbow right off the stage Bon Scott will always be to me the greatest rock and roll singer besides Elvis that ever lived and Angus Young unbelievable Talent I'm so fortunate to see those guys in their prime but please Angus don't make another AC DC album make a solo album of your own music without AC DC and without Axl Rose it'll be number 1 if you do time to let ACDC rest.
Lucky Dog I wish I could have seen the original band must of been JUST UNBELIEVABLE!!!! BON SCOTT will always be number#1on my list out of anyone alive past or present he was the BEST!!!!!!!!!!
saw them in their prime, on the highway to hell tour in 1979. opener, btw, was a hitherto unknown band (in Switzerland anyway) called Judas Priest.... oh dear, that stage energy of Bon and Angus, it was just amazing. To me, Bon is the best frontman and entertainer ever, with a voice like a howling sandstorm. unheard of before and after.
Bon took a lot of Stevie Wrights vocalisms . Stevie was lead singer for the Easybeats, George Youngs band who were huge in australia in the 60's and had a huge hit worldwide with Friday on my Mind. Go look up Hard Road by Stevie Wright 1974, proto AC/DC
we knew him as his rose with ACDC when they were nothing..He was a aussie larrikan..even though he had the Scottish genes..He epitomised every Australian at the time..burn the candle at both ends...rage..and rage again..innocent and corrupt at the same time..a devil and child in one..he had charisma in buckets full... most Australian crews had a Scott like character...
Honestly as an Aussie the only other r+r singer I can compare Bon to is the late an great Ronnie Van Zant of Lynyrd Skynyrd. The same no bullshit down to earth , us against them , no surrender mentality .Americans should celebrate Ronnie more first. Skynyrd should've never split up after the disaster just as AC/DC didn't. "Give me back my bullets, another bullet to bite on" !
To Billy Corgan's remark about Bon's passionate singing, I agree, but would also add that Steve Marriott (The Small Faces, Humble Pie) was also a dynamo at the microphone.
Bon Scott the man, the myth, and the legend. R.I.P Bon Scott. One of biggest, loudest, bad ass rock n roll legends ever. He was also gorgeous.
who's here only to listen to what lemmy had to say about bon?
The only opinion we want to hear, none of the rest matter.
RIP Lemmy
Not true, I was really into every word Scotty Ian had to say.
Me 2 baddest hard rock singers that ever lived
Yep
Bon was a Scot. I think many people will agree, the Scots are one tuff breed.
Well said I agree 100% cause I’m Scottish
Got that right Big Man!!!!!!
Scotland Forever
So are Australians !! But Australians are more laid back and larrikins at heart. Bon was shaped in Australia.
@@Mav_F Thanks for the new word. Larrikins. Bon was a true 'Gebor'
Bon Did NOT sing in falsetto. Not that he never used it but his regular singing voice was that high naturally. Brian though does. Which he's great at. Both are/were awesome!

Bon is was and forever will be the best ever. Its a long way to the top. Ride on Bon.
Excellent tribute to Bon, he is the man.
He was a Scotsman who lived in Fremantle Western Australia. Before he was in AC/DC he was in the Spectors , the Valentines and Fratenity where he wore clothes and was also a drummer in a pipe band. We love him in WA! 🇦🇺🙏🏻🇦🇺🙏🏻🇦🇺🙏🏻
some people say they wouldn't have hit it big without Brian but I think that's bullshit every album they was getting more popular I think they would have even been bigger if that's possible with Bon
highway to hell made the top 40
Kelly Rodgers Bon Scott did all the hard work got them all the attention that they needed set it all up for Brian and the rest of the band hell it's been heavily said Bon Scott wrote MOST OF THE Back in Black album and I truly believe that shit it was all there for them they already had the fans sure Brian stepped up and did great but Bon would of been the absolute GREATEST.............
so times . the times . with all due respect to Brian . it was respectability Bons band . .
Justin Williams
yes WAS

ACDC the best rock and roll band ever!!!
David Knoll its hard rock, rock n roll is mostly another genre, only some elements and influence, like a hurriganes from finland, its complete rock n roll band, yes best hard rock band in this world, that i am agree totally
It's all rock'n'roll (c) Ronnie James Dio
You got my agreement ..... Rock hard always buddy :)
THE BEST ROCK N ROLL BAND EVER MADE AC/DC
I believe that Bon would have not only been a great guy to be around, but also a great friend to have. Let me set the record straight on a couple of things: yes, his autopsy does list the cause of death as "death by misadventure", but it ALSO lists "acute alcohol poisoning."

The guy did all of that. It was just a horrible accidental death. Its not like the guy didnt try to get Bon out of the car, plus the temperature that night was at freezing and Bon had also been seeing a doctor for several months for liver treatment. I hope that clears some misconceptions up for people that come on here and watch this.

JokersWild45 its matter to me, bon scott is AC/DC forever, brian johnson ruined a whole band, brian voice ruined not imago really
David Vincent Hey, and I can respect your opinion! They did become a totally different band when Bon died and Brian came in. Even Malcolm, who was always the undisputed leader of AC/DC has said that they would have probably never become what they did without Bon's influence. But I personally enjoy both versions, although they really lost me after "Flick of the Switch." "Ballbreaker" had a few decent songs, and "Rock or Bust" had about 3 that I like, but for me, it will always be "Powerage", "Highway to Hell", "Back in Black" as my 3 favorites.

Met. Damn
Saw Bon live. AC/DC opened for Aerosmith - and they were so far superior it was stunning.
I bet
Bon Scott was a bit of a pirate he came after his women with a sword and he didn't care how many layers of lingerie they had on Damn!!!! Bon Scott was the man damn how I envied if reincarnation is real when I die I hope I come as him because It's always been my dream to be a badass rockstar 🤘🤘
Bon Scott must be what Satan sounds like it's got to be like that
Bon Scott was the voice of acdc i saw bon in 1978and it was unbelievable the whole band was and i do like Brian Johnson he took them the rest of tthe way love that band
As a Scotsman I love that three of the original members are Scottish
Bon, sang blues, rock and soul all in one coming from his soul. AC/DC would've been grateful to have Bon. Never another like him. Rest in Paradise Bon Scott
No evidence of a soul whatsoever
42 years ago we lost a legend 💔
Sometimes i wonder what if Bon didnt die ....
His lyrics in Let there be rock say's it all and Trucovsky said there be sound,drums,guitar LET THERE BE ROCK our Aussie rock legend
First thing I'd do if I had a time machine; save Bon Scott's life and Randy Rhoads too.
Dave Warren same with Stevie Ray Vaughan and John Lennon
He still Rocks, he's a feckin LEGEND, now with Malc too
Never missed a show that’s a true Front man...never will we seethe likes of Bon again
Bon was one of the best at the "tongue and cheek" lyrical prose.
Booze and drugs take away the blockage that most people have to go jump on the stage and sing from the toes. I think alot of talents never get out when you stay sober.
Yeah, partly true but as a performer I used to rely on drugs and alcohol and after about 15 years my bad habits made my performances worse and worse, I literally had to learn to feel OK being sober which took a few years to get the hang of.

To me Bon Scott kinda reminds me of Jim Dandy who was front man for Black Oak Arkansas!!!!!!!
Jim Dandy to the rescue...
That hurts bad man. Jim Dandy was not even close to being the talent of Bon Scott. The names shouldn't even be in the same sentence. Just sayin....
2:18 its called Mixed voice
Its chest voice , distorted up pushed to their head .
Falsetto is another animal .
With no folds vibrating , is disconnected .
I wonder if bon scott weight lifted? because he was BUILT
MichaelHansenFUN no he wasnt lol
Yes he lifted weights 12 ounces at a time
Yeah he lifted JD bottles
He was a merchant marine
BON HAVE A DRINK ON ME
The new bands could not do what acdc did it was raw rock back then
Bon was just a bloke. But he was special. He was smart and he was good fun.
Him and Lemmy are my two music heroes.

HOWS THAT FOR A BAND ??? ...band name ??? "HANGOVER " ....(WHAT ELSE ?)
Can't be hungover if you're constantly messed up.
How about Hendrix on guitar and John Entwistle and bass instead?
How about BHELP? Bon, Hendrix, Emerson, lake and palmer so awesome =-)
Definitely Hendrix on acid
The great Paul Kossoff on guitar, Bon up front , John Bonham on drums, Entwhistle on bass, John Lennon and Elvis on backups , and Marilyn the groupie. xx
I wouldn't be comparing Bon to Brian...

Why would they interview these fools who never met him ?... Matt Sorum...😂...I'd rather hear what Steven Adler has to say ...
Plunder xxxxx
Some of those Donnas were less than enthusiastic.
Guess he never heard of Little Richard :)
Sorry Bon but you were stopped .
I never heard or read he was tired one night!
Sure he was but thru his poker face you have to look check out touch too much from top of the pops very sad
lemmy saided best

THEE coolest voice. Ever
“You could hear the twinkle in his eye” YES!😉

@ 👍
Bon Scott ? Great, real and honest. For me the best Rock/Singer/ Frontman.....ever!
Ride On Bon
I think Bon had that scratchy rough voice naturally where brian had to scream intentionally to make it sound similar
That "natural" voice was due to a motorcycle wreck
Every time i listen to AC/DC my whole body heals.
Bon Scott was biggest hard rock pirate in hard rock scene!
Bon was the best hard rock front man. Period. Nobody had the stage presence of Bon Scott....even till now. Rock on....
You can't get more rock than Bon
I love Bon!
He was sleazy & silly 😜
Congratulations on being in love you two
You don’t leave someone drunk on their back to fall asleep, you turn them on their side
How many guys have you been around that drank themselves to sleep every time you went out? You can't babysit especially if you're drunk yourself.
This was all Bon's fault.
Problem Child, Down Payment Blues.
Bon is remembered as one of the greatest front men in rock history in any genre.
Bon was an absolute diamond.
Billy Walker hard rock diamond, AC/DC was nothing without Bon Scott, that for sure
Hm, the sales of Back in Black, and its endurance, prove you wrong, dude!
