Genre: Australian pop/rock
Places I remember: Fives (Leigh-on-sea)
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: The 7.35 minutes of Bad Boy Boogie are tough to beat.
Gear costume: Riff Raff and Whole Lotta Rosie are larger than life!
Active compensatory factors: A case can be made that Bon Scott is AC/DC. He's certainly my favourite AC/DC vocalist and this, my goo goo friends, is his finest hour. Live and strutting his stuff. Living it. Breathing it!
But that would also be doing Angus Young a disservice. Along with Bon, Angus is the star attraction live. It's very hard to keep your eyes off him as he becomes Mr Perpetual Motion. His guitaring is feral wild and pure excitement.
But that would also ignore the songs. On this set all the catchy riffs and vocals exist because the songs are great.
Bottom line: my favourite AC/DC album. Full stop.
Where do they all belong? Almost at the end of AC/DC mark 1 but fear not. There is more Bon Scott to come.
