Drum virtuosity is not all that relevant when considering AC/DC's sound. But I do prefer Rudd to Slade but its nothing to do with skill, the bald head just doesn't do it for me.

[QUOTE=AB/CD]chris slade was just a session player always has been same with simon wright AC/DC couldnt get permanent drummer for the band[/QUOTE]

I wouldnt call them session drummers. Simon was with them for a while. And as for Slade, he would have been there a while if they hadn't decided to meet up with Phil again.

Simon Wright ended up joining Dio because he always had an infatuation with them according to Malcolm. Slade, I don't know what happened to him..back to session drumming i suppose.

sure....phil rudd is the biggest bogan in the band

i love him

[QUOTE=Alex1422]Chris Slade is better than any other Ac Dc drummer. just listen to Thunderstruck. Yes, he is better than Phil Rudd[/QUOTE]

I take it you've never heard any Dio tracks then...

The early songs are only for Bon and the later songs created by Ac/Dc would only sound good with Brian, they sound totally different.

I think some live stuff done by brian is pretty good that was originally done by bon like jailbreak on live i think is awesome. But I don't think bon could sing any songs that were written in the brian era.

Dude Bon Scott is Alwayz ur best bet but in our band ill prolly be singin like Brian so it all depends but go Bon

Please spell properly.

I think Bon was a better songwriter. Songs like "Overdose" and "Ride On"; I haven't heard anything like those since Brian came around (if there are songs like that, I'd appreciate it if someone could point them out since I've obviously missed them). Not that I dont like the guy, hes great, but I'd take Bon over him.

bon didnt write. ang & mal did.

[QUOTE=maddog87]bon didnt write. ang & mal did.[/QUOTE]

I'm pretty sure Bon also wrote, I just checked the High Voltage and LTBR booklets to make sure.

it may be credited ,but i dont think so. he might have helped though.

The reason that the credit to bon is there is because he wrote ALL the lyrics.

[QUOTE=acdcroker]Does everone hear like bon scott over Brian?[/QUOTE]

yes.

yeah Bon wrote almost all the lyrics for AC/DC back in the day, i think the only album that Brian actually wrote entirely was Blow Up Your Video, correct me if I'm wrong though.

[QUOTE=rippa32]The reason that the credit to bon is there is because he wrote ALL the lyrics.[/QUOTE]

Thought so. Thanks for clearing that up.

So I got Powerage today and it has taken If you want blood...'s place as my favourite AC/DC album :thumb:

[QUOTE=Marty]yeah Bon wrote almost all the lyrics for AC/DC back in the day, i think the only album that Brian actually wrote entirely was Blow Up Your Video, correct me if I'm wrong though.[/QUOTE]

I think Brian has written a few albums. I was pretty confident that he wrote Back In Black. I'm not positive but that's what I thought.

Yes he wrote from Back in Black to Flick of the Switch (or Fly on the Wall, I cant remember) everything after that he hasnt, he is for the new one though.

back in black is pretty good.. and very sentimental..first song i learned.

Anybody here like Rhino Bucket? They make rocking tracks and sound similiar to AC/DC. Another forum member posted a link to this movie trailored site, but in the background it has Rhino Buckets new tune. It's actually really good, take a listen;

no bon kicked more ***! they start to fade after brian joined (even if back in black in black sold more copies than highway to hell bon kicked more ***)

majority of people r saying Bons great cos he sang highway to hell and he originally song personally i like Bon and Brian but i do think Brian cant sing Bons songs cos he cant hit the high parts as well Brian has written on every album from back in black to stiff upper lip i mean like looks at it this way every song which has 2 meanings from back in black onwards is 1 of Brians e.g. let me put my love into you, given the dog a bone, sink the pink, hard as a rock

AC/DC, good band...

I'm currently listening to the Back In Black album. Good stuff.

[QUOTE=acdcroker]Does everone hear like bon scott over Brian?[/QUOTE]



Of course. Because they were better when he was in the band.
