A Tribute to Bon Scott of ACDC this weekend

2 years ago by Jeff Woods | February 18, 2010 6:04 pm

That’s Angus Young with the devil horns.  At the far left, his brother Malcolm. To the right, his brother from a different mother, Bon Scott.

All three emigrated with their families, as kids, to Australia.   The bond they forged extends beyond the grave.  Today, 30 years ago, Bon was on his way their, upon his death in the backseat of a car in London England.   He’d been out to a club to hear some music and have some drinks.  Bon lived all of his 9 lives in just 33 years.

I will take you through the history of Bon’s rise to fame through those final moments, this weekend on the Legends weekly show, with several live gems and studio classics.

For the biggest of ACDC fans, you will also find a 5 part documentary on Bon,  the first of which I’ll give you here now and if you want more, you can go directly to Youtube for the rest .

    Hi Jeff,
    I think I have said this before here, however Bon Scott was the best miss his singing and down to earth qualities.Brian seems the same on all levels, however Im sorry his voice kills me..Im a voice person and this guy does not do it But love all else about him.

    R.I.P Bon Scott.
    cheers
