Duende Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 I have always loved this song - the lyrics too are brilliantly sinister Bon was apparently (only found this out last week) a fellow kilt wearer, like Angus and Malcolm - that certainly explains the Bagpipe solo in 'Its Along Way To The Top...' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY9H0s5sph0
lagerfanny Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 First time I've seen that, just how does Angus keep that up whilst playing? (even after all these years too)................. isn't Marshall full stacks just SO iconic to rock!
pippy Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Matt.... Did you know Bon's body was found in a car in East Dulwich (three miles from here) before being taken to the local King's College Hospital in Camberwell where he was pronounced DOA? Spookily close to home...... I only saw AC/DC once and that was in Glasgow on the tour which resulted in the fantastic "If You Want Blood..." live album. Angus walked along the parapet of the Circle ('upstairs' for you young'uns) gallery whilst playing the solo to 'Whole Lotta Rosie'.... Nutter. Didn't surprise me to find out that 75% of the band were Scottish by birth! P.
Duende Posted December 29, 2011 Author Posted December 29, 2011 I didn't know Bon died here :( AC DC was the first live music I ever saw. It was March the 13th (or 18th) 1988 on The Blow Up Your Video tour at the Wembley Arena. I was 12 and my dad took me. He despised it and sat down and read the Daily Telegraph the entire concert! LOL Matt
Rocky4 Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 That song was my introduction to AC/DC. It was actually played in rotation on our local FM album station at the time. Great stuff.
sellen Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Very cool show Here's some more from the same show, if you have the hunger for some more http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BVydcWnd9E
Rocky4 Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Just watched it again, Didn't somebody here slam Anguses vibrato a while back?
surfpup Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Great show. They ran the whole thing on cable a couple of years ago. I had it on the DVR, and I watched it so many times my wife was starting to pack! Good sh*t!
surfpup Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 Just watched it again, Didn't somebody here slam Anguses vibrato a while back? Yes. If I recall correctly the comment regarded his vibrato being out of time with the song.
