guitaraddict21119, please don't triple post.

[QUOTE=CockeyedMaverik]hey can the good people from the AC/DC thread suggest some songs for me?[/QUOTE]

Get their first CD, High Voltage.

[QUOTE=Ulysses]I've said this a number of times, but I think the double live cd set isn't nearly as good in raw powerful sound, electricity and of course vocals as "If You Want Blood...You've Got It", that live record is impeccable. Donwload Riff Raff if you want some solid rock n roll.[/QUOTE]

Yeah I have both of those and you're right but this guy is kinda new to AC/DC so I was trying to get him into both the Bon Scott and Brian Johnson eras and let him get the full taste of their stuff instead of just Bon-only songs. I think Bon is the better lyricist and personality but Brian is still pretty cool.

I hate when people say that bands like ac dc and 3 doors down and green day are bad bands why are they so populalar if theyre that bad they sound good and thats all theat matters

I agree i can see why a lot of people don't like brian and only like bon. I started off with Brian and liked him off the back maybe thats why i like his voice so much hearing brian first will let you appreciate his era a little more.

Waht they're saying is the bands don't have much talent.

Im with you. I had gotten Live, Back In Black and Razors Edge before ever hearing Bon sing at all. The reason I like Brian so much(I still prefer Bon) is probably because he was the first I heard. And to the guy talking about 3 Doors Down. When were they popular?

I like a lot of bon scott songs like Whole Lotta Rosie, Hell Aio't a Bad Place To Be (and of course The Jack 'cuz the lyrics are f[B][I][/I][/B]cking hilarious), but to this day my favorite song by them will always be hell's bells. It's their darkest and sickest song and the cover of it by Six Feet Under is really really cool.

I also the the intro riff to beating around the bush. If I had the money, I'd get their thick a[B][I][/I][/B]ss guitar book that has like 80 of their songs. I bought one in the past for a friend as a gift, and have been kicking myself for not just keeping it for myself. :lol:

I have to agree,bon is better IMO,but ya still gota like the brian stuff.

bassplayer51291 09-16-2005 02:39 PM

bon scott is acdc at its best brian was good but bon is the best

Bon_Scottie 09-16-2005 03:32 PM

Personally had heard Bon before Brian, but love tracks from both singers.

They're singer has to be the biggest load of ****e I've heard, ever.

TyVeRsOn_03 09-17-2005 09:15 AM

It surpirses me that AC/DC cold find a singer that sounds so much like bon.....he was the best and you can tell a difference....but not too much, but either way they had angus....and he was the one who drew all the people in

Audiopond 09-17-2005 10:06 AM

Ty get off the pc.

Grutte Pier 09-17-2005 10:33 AM

Bon Scott couldn't sing at all, what he did just sounded real good. He has an unique voice and that's always an advantage in music. He probably is my favorite singer of all time.

[QUOTE=Follow The Reaper]Did none else notice this?[/QUOTE]

I thought someone would nail me for that. I like Bon Scott, probably the best rock frontmen ever, but I don't think he ever took any singing lessons. Not that that is a bad thing.

Well Never mind. Forget what I typed. Rock on.

Yea,i was wanderin the same thing.

Bon_Scottie 09-17-2005 01:34 PM

His voice is a bag of balls, thats what.

How can you listen to something like that?

I downloaded a few of their 'Graveyard classics'... and the music is great, but... have to turn it off when the singer comes in.

Back onto AC/DC, favourite track at the moment is either Show buisness or Get it hot.

[QUOTE]I like Bon Scott, probably the best rock frontmen ever, but I don't think he ever took any singing lessons. Not that that is a bad thing. [/QUOTE]

I'd say its a good thing. Its not some over produced perfect little rock group. It's straight up rock and roll, and Bons voice and lyrics suit it to perfection.

lightningmetal666 09-17-2005 03:45 PM

I think I'll try to re-learn beating around the bush. I never got past the intro because it was so cool and hard.

What does Bon not having singing lessons add to if it's overproduced or not? BTW, Bon, Angus, and Malcolm wrote the lyrics, not just Bon.





Anyone wanna do any songs for the Jam Session thread, I know pretty much every AC/DC song on guitar (Angus's part), and it would easy to program the drums.

I know, but Bon delivered them superbly.

What I meant, is that half of the crap out these days is taken into the studio, over produced, and they play around with vocal sounds using all sorts of machines. Bon just gave the goods, no bull.

Follow The Reaper 09-17-2005 06:43 PM

So did and do a lot of people, a lot of bands aren't "Overproduced", some bands put stuff behind the vocals (Opeth), but a lot of bands just use their regular voices, including Brian, whom you hate. (I do too)

TheNung 09-17-2005 06:52 PM

Anyone who doesn't like AC/DC: You have no nuts.

dr._feelgood 09-17-2005 10:15 PM

I just watched the Live At Donington DVD. It was amazing and has rebirthed my interest in AC/DC. They put on quite a show.

angusmaster 09-17-2005 10:40 PM

Has anyone seen that stiff upper lip tour dvd,ive been thinking about buying it,but i wanna know if its good or not.

Follow The Reaper 09-17-2005 10:47 PM

I own it, it's pretty good, they did a good preformance, Angus ****ed up a little, but it's still good.

angusmaster 09-17-2005 10:49 PM

Im gonna buy it next time i see it then,thanks.

Follow The Reaper 09-17-2005 10:51 PM

No problem, it fails in comparrison to Donnington, but has better sound quality then No Bull.

rippa32 09-18-2005 01:07 AM

It also has better sound quality than Donington.

Bon_Scottie 09-18-2005 04:42 AM

Brain does squeel a tad on it, though.
