AC/DC before Bon Scott

[TikiETapas]

Angus is in school uniform cause he went straight from school to the gig

[JakeVideos100]

the drummer is Peter Clack! If you don't believe me look it up

[JayCrazy74]

what the hell is Malcolm wearing

[lpichery44]

no you suck!!!!

[JakeVideos100]

MAN! Phill looks like a freakin idiot with that hair!!

[BobNugget15]

@JakeVideos100 thats not Phil

[apollo21599]

Bon Scott, you saved AC/DC FROM THAT SON OF A BITCH!!!

[nativematt221]

that was when george young was on bass and Im not sure who was the drummer

[ukraininoak]

Well, even this guy has a better voice than Brian Johnson !

[theworldacording2jmc]

Angus has a satchel. Nice.

[123cjarvis]

this is so bad so glad they found scott this sucks lol.

[MrJeables]

the singer is not gay at that time was just as common to move so

[shelltro]

he looks gay lol

[fjejern]

is the singer GAY

[BPR998]

damn THANK GOD for BON Or ACDC would have sucked and never been as famous as it was

this doesnt even sound anything close to an ACDC song

[jjlax68]

Drummer looks wrong to me

[nochix96isnuts]

That singer have no attitude,I mean,he is good and everything but he better stay in the 50's ya know what I mean!

[dinocharlie1]

that singer is like David Lee Roth, but without splits and a good voice

[touyubes1]

man this is good

[randomrighthere561]

AC/DC is not AC/DC before Bon

[Micou0201]

haha like malcolm's hat

[darincovert]

This guy sounds like Billy Squire hahahahahahahahaha

[EmofacePS3]

Bon Scott kicks this guys ass

[pawelek1101]

This isnt AC/DC style

[gus4u2c]

This show how AC/DC originally started out as a glam rock band, before Bon Scott joined the group. It cracks me up how Malcolm & Angus down play the bisexual connotations of the band's name these days.

[NoneBuriedDeeper]

This sounds like Sweet covered it or something.

[CanadianOgre69]

Bon added the personality they needed. Character in performance. They'd not have "Made it" with this dude.

[shortythecat007]

Geez!!! Angus is ALWAYS fantastic. Why did he put up with the lead singer? Bon Scott is and always will be THE BEST!!!

[Pittmail88]

Not the worst thing I ever heard but geez thank god things worked out. For a while anyway.

[imjoshmanandyouare]

bon is the true acdc singer

[whitesky0009]

Geezuss....everyone had to start from the bottom I guess. Thank God for making Bon Scott.

[imbueto]

if was a girl i would have to say "no you pussy, grow a pair". damn that sucked... ;)/

[jpavlekovich]

i like it very much 

[chunkawanka]

Is that Jim Morrison?



[KillTheRat032]

@chunkawanka Dave Evans

[MrDarkness176]

no wonder why this song sort of sucked, it was way better when Bon Scott sang it...

[touyubes1]

so glam its fn great

been acdc fan for a long time

[PorkFrog]

wow! what a difference without an evil-sounding, growling lead singer

got any Zep without Plant? LOL

[touyubes1]

makes me wanna be in a rnr band

[touyubes1]

awesome fn awesome awesome been drinkin gin awesome

awesome

[crimsongloryXV]

i'm i the only on who actually likes this?? (ofc its nowhere near how amayzing they were with bon but still good)

[hjs521]

He's just not evil enough....

[edwinm1]

damn after seeing this i missed bon and his denim...what the fuck is this?

[jlinssen93]

What year was this in?

[theworldacording2jmc]

@jlinssen93 1973.

[ConHayes71]

why does Malcom look like a pirate?

[Yeaaaaaaaahhhhhhh]

i have to admit this song sucks

[skok58]

They were definitely a different band with Bon. The clothes look like a cross between the NY Dolls and the Bay City Rollers. I doubt many of us would've been a fan had they sounded like this. . .

[cloud32888]

i would be a homo if i listened to this when i was 6 

[MrGLM1915]

cmon at least hes better than JB in singing probaly get better pussy

[72SGMAN]

THANK GOD FOR BON SCOTT !!! I CANNOT STRESS THAT ENOUGH !!! I CAN'T IMAGINE THE SOUNDTRACK OF MY LIFE SOUNDING LIKE THAT FUCKING DUDE....

[henkea76]

Dave Evans is not bad. But he is not Bon.

Thanks to Bon AC became famous!

[gpetrescue]

Bet he feels like a karaoke singer now.

[theworldacording2jmc]

Yeah I like Dave Evans but he's too pop-sounding. He'd be better for a band like Slade or The Sweet or maybe even Motley Crue.

[FlyingPiper13]

This seems a lot closer to rockabilly!

[X1xone]

He reminds me of the singer in The Sweet. Not bad, but not a good fit for AC/DC.

[meurteun]

Ha! After 31 years Brian is still the new guy!

[touyubes1]

@meurteun thts pretty funny dude

[Fantascular]

I want one of whatever that thing Malcom's wearing.

[williamslake73]

this is the gay version of ACDC.....LOL

[ACEDIAMOND666]

dave evans is the original singer. this is dave evans singing. bon scott was his replacement. good thing too. bon was way better than dave or brian, who replaced bon after death intervened in 1980.

[FlyingPiper13]

This Is AC/DC?

[foxnaif]

this is great

[doofuss100]

this vid shows what bon means to ac/dc. it's not that dave evans is a bad singer. in fact he sounds pretty good from this. it's just that he's pop. bon gave the band the grittier, more aggressive sound they needed.

[HearingLossProvider]

Thank God they got Bon! Thats all I gotta say!

And what the hell is Mal wearing? lol

[fleyeonyourwall]

Dave was amazing but not acdc type he seems more like a disco singer Or sumting

[aussiebrat71]

Like the red head from Ballarat on the drums lol go clacky

[jaytube2112]

Kinda AC/DC Slade - ish

[lemmyswartt]

Dave was good in his own right.Just not right for AC/DC

[UKWeddingStore]

Dave and Bon made AC/DC.. They should have stopped as soon as Brian joined them..

[bergalini]

@UKWeddingStore ACDC had their biggest album with Brian. Back in Black, perhaps you have heard of it.

[UKWeddingStore]

@bergalini Yes I have heard of it... I bought it probably when your parents were in their teens... Was a good album.. But Johnson is still a lousy front man... Saw them live with him... bored me to death..

[beans663]

before you judge take a listen to bons earlier stuff with

the valentines and before them the fraterity cause theres some shit rite there

but 100% sure as soon as he joined acdc rock and roll changed forever

bon deffinately fucking rocks

[beans663]

fuk you bunch of ass clowns say'n shit about dave evans

for that time in music and what the band were doin he was fukn awesome

yep 100% bon changed that bands direction and for the better

but at time in australia thats what rock and roll was

[KendyllsDad1]

Bon brought some balls to the band. I can't imagine AC/DC would have gone off the island of Australia with this albatross. Angus would have wrote songs that would have died in the studio with Dave Evans. IF there were a god, I'd thank her for Bon.

[TheZeroControlTeam]

'He was blowing kisses to the crowd. We just grew and grew to dislike it' And then Bon came along...... ;)

[HaydnGlenney]

Imagine him doing highway to hell... oh god.

[ImmaSynShenron]

@HaydnGlenney lol,what about Thunderstruck?

[TheRBVids]

Not being funny but this guy is a fucking legend !

[grimjhaixus]

Sounds like Brownsville Station.

[aliengtr]

its the deep lyrics that really are impressive....

[thermalKITTEN]

this made me sad :(

[theworldacording2jmc]

@thermalKITTEN Why?

[thermalKITTEN]

@theworldacording2jmc because its not bon scott

[09terrafirma]

Dave makes ACDC look like the Bay City Rollers. Thankfully Bon arrived.

[chrisgoodman1]

gay

[YNWALiverpool1892]

Brian is a shit singer> dude your out of your fucking mind. Bon Scott will forever be the best singer of AC/DC but to say brian is shite makes you look and sound like a fucking idiot. brian brought something new to the band with his evil voice. its legendary. your a dumbass

[peleger1]

Pretty funny.....check out Malcolm's clothes!

[theworldacording2jmc]

@peleger1 Lol I know he looks like a bumblebee.

[trendyjon1]

He only lasted 9 months,,Thank fuck.

[frem900]

here has only those teens fans, who knew the band acdc playing guitar hero , thats is wanderful

[cjcool91]

@frem900 ACDC was never on Guitar Hero as far as I know anyways.

[AgentNoOne]

I have never made it all the way through this video, because it was terrible without Bon Scotts vocals.

[theworldacording2jmc]

Dave Evans sounds too 50's-ish for my liking. I like Bon and Brian way better, Bon especially.

[bongoloid77]

Good thing they found Bon

[montana6426]

haha, WTF is he doing at 2:06 ?

[williamslake73]

this guy sucks ass!!!!

[wrockfish]

is that kurt russell?  the computer wore a faggy jumpsuit?

[diego59x]

with bon scott = AC/DC

with this guy= gay CDC

[amishzomby]

it is acdc but the singer just got hit by chuck norris b4 the show this guy is like the rebecca black in 1972

[amishzomby]

i believe god made bon to send this bulll crap singer to hell

[acdcfan101able]

THIS IS AMAZING!!!!! Oh wait that's just angus and malcom.

[MatthiasNomad]

Wow, what a homosexual singer.

[sooper2dooper3]

I really feel sorry for this singer because his life must have been so completely fucked as he MUST realize his singing and stage persona is SO second rate compared to the legend that Bon Scott was and is. Brian Johnson did a decent job...nothing compared to the brilliance of Bon Scott...but better him than no ACDC at all.

[TopockArizona]

Leif Garrett audition for AC/DC...  Or, is that John Travola?

[margolou2010]

So thankful that Bon came along and they got rid of Mike Evans. This wasn't even good glam rock. Had it not been for divine providence, there would have been no AC/DC because this wouldn't have lasted.

[Rocknrollthor]

LOL.. Its a long way to the top if ya wanna rock'n roll, and every band has to start somewhere.. ..just glad they fired him!!

I'm just another empty head That's why I'm lonely I'm so lonely But I know what I'm gonna do - I'm gonna ride on Ride on

RIP Bon Scott.

[175013]

bon scott is on the drums

[aRTSproduction33]

Dave Evans was the first lead singer than a year later he was replace and there came the late great Bon Scott and than Brian Johnson lol

[painofficer]

ALL BANDS HAVE TO START SOMEWHERE, AND AS AC/DC HADN`T INVENTED HEAVY ROCK YET, THEY STARTED OUT PLAYING THE THE MUSIC OF THE MOMENT WHICH WAS GLAM ROCK. THANK FUCK THIS DIDN`T LAST.........

[jianumihail]

Wtf? This is not ac dc

[TheRBVids]

@jianumihail oh yeah take off your blindfold and watch it again...

[cjcool91]

@jianumihail Ok if its not ACDC why is the early ACDC logo is on the drum and if its not ACDC then why are Malcolm and Angus playing guitars after all any ACDC fan knows that THEY started ACDC.

[imbueto]

what the fuck is this? i cant believe it, is this a joke?

they just wanted to see if we were...

what the fuck is this?

[Eric22]

This was way before they found "their" sound ; i'm glad eventually they did because this sucks. Oh well, there are more bands with embarrassing starts, except Killing Joke who still play their great first songs.

[andieundanna1]

This sounds like glam-rock... thank god, they found Bon.

[MarcoMooo]

Imagin Angus Young doing an awesome solo to this guy. I doubt it.

[angusyoung20]

he looks like paul rudd

[TheRBVids]

Imagine what Dave Evans is thinking right now...

[elfhermie]

This song kinda rocks in a laid back fun glam way. It's cool to see how the band changed throughout the year and was quite capable of having different sounds. Sweet musical history. This guy wouldn't be dissed so badly by the fans had he stayed with the band and been the singer for their later hits. Compared to Bon, though, he's so different that it's easy to see why people (cruel as usual) rip on him. But still, he was perfect for this particular song. Well done, Dave!

[ramdarook]

I was at this performance held on a Friday night at Cronulla Cinema Sydney 1974. AC/DC was a new band & we didn't know then what the future held. All I know it was a great evening & we danced all night because this band just kept on rockin' No complaints from me.

[swedishmetal96]

Thank god for Bon Scott

[paukva]

Is this AC DC or the Gay City Blowers, I mean Bay City Rollers...LOL??? Sorry dudes, but Bon Scott rules! Glad they kicked this dumbass before it was too late...lol.

[flommoh]

I think its the gay version:D nothing about gays but this singer sucks...thumbs down! (only for the singer)

[sivazh]

What the HELL is that humping motion he does at 1:13

[BarrelRacingBabe10]

Bon Scott...July 9 1946 to February 19 1980 Forever in our hearts.<3

[rocknrolljunkie2011]

Oh wow. Thanks so much for posting. This is awesome. It's so awful, cheesy and all around sucky and it's friggin' AC/DC. I'm loving this.

[TheRisingforce2000]

if that singer went to prison his ass would be raw in 3 days

[TheForkedtoungue]

Bon Scott had the voice of Satan himself, no matter who was the singer before(or after) him, they automatically suck. No rock(punk) singer has the pure punch you in the face attitude he had.

[ironfirewolf]

that dave evans sucked ass

[retarzan]

He is good.He initiated the style which Bon Scott further developed.

But Bon has that Sound.

[geobruf123]

looks like one of the osmonds

[williamjamesneaves]

got to see this line up at Festival Hall when they fronted Lou Reed only 40y/s ago ! was'nt sure about him then and i,m still not ? but Lou was Big with Blood Red eye's and Steve Hunter on lead Guitar was Huge

[Johnbatdavies]

WTF. Thank God they brought in Bon.

This is dreadful lol

[Dutchy1965]

thank Phuc they got Bon !

[GHenry5150]

god bless acdc for kicking this dude out.

[frem900]

@GHenry5150 maybe you like a voice of shit

[Oetheus]

Bon sings it too :) heaps better...

[wseeback]

Most of there shit with bon is like this. Bluesy, minimalist, Only 100 times better, and more exciting.

[schclum]

I'd prefer this type of music, blusier 70s type rock, like Nazareth or foghat... They got a bit minimalist later on. Do they have any songs like this with Bon or Brian?

[TheMike2665]

Really bad cropped top he has on...disgusting!

[jdcastellanosk]

DUDE IS TOO PRETTY TO BE IN AC DC

[MrMalevolousinfernal]

@jdcastellanosk ajajjajjjjajajjja



[cjcool91]

Dave is not a bad singer but Bon Scott and Brian Johnson are the voices for ACDC

[frem900]

@cjcool91 brian johnson? you like a voice of shit, brian is very shit singer, make a suicide man, you dont know nothing of music

[funcooldrew2]

i think they did not whta type of music they music they what to use?

[Repulver]

lol Val Kilmer was with the AC/DC after he gave up as Jim Morrison ???

[prchurch13]

LOL this shit is hilarious

[useb7]

This is what you call very original. This guy (Dave Kicks)..

[Daze042881]

Isnt that Bon Scott playing the drums I think It is. I could be wrong but I think it is. No matter what Bon Scott is the best.

[kjus13]

Well, I don't think so. Mal has always been the head of the band. He was the one to lead the band and make decisions about music and style...

[jacob999666]

lol i dont any girl would let him sit next to him lol long live bon scott

[Chrisaerozepath]

thank god for bon

[MrDstip]

dave is good but brian johnson and bon scott are the best

[imvigaoftheworld]

Thank you BON

[byff2323]

Malcolm sings better than Evans.

[rvnTheDark]

angus looks like a schoolboy.

[ab1cdefghijklmnop]

fuuuuck...

[mutasim0hourani]

This title is wrong,,, There Was No AC/DC Before Bon

[johnny36120081]

@mutasim0hourani when malcolm and angus created ac/dc in '73,the original line-up was the youngs,dave evans, larry van kriedt and colin burgess.it was only that way for a few months till in oct of '74 they decided to recruit bon scott. they also replaced kriedt and burgess with mark evans and phil rudd. it was very short....but that is the original ac/dc line-up.

[175013]

@mutasim0hourani it says AC DC on the drums

[tazmaniadinamo]

@mutasim0hourani it was with dave evans singer

[Admin591]

@mutasim0hourani haha youre right :D

[SlitMouthWoman]

BACK INNNNN BLLLAACCCKK ACK ACK ACK <--- Dave style.

[Maverick5588]

wow

[jukkajylli]

i like this. if you think it would be just some other band from seventies, without knowing who are the guitar players.. awesome and very tight playing (mal is playing some solo parts !!), and singer did good job too. well, they look like bunch of.. (and yes, of course there's no bon, phil and mark in the band yet)

[mrwhatsnexttothemoon]

its like a spoof. like the iron maiden spoof the trooper i think its called...

[randomrighthere561]

Dave was good, his style just dosen't fit AC/DC

[mufflerbearin]

what year was this??

[guitar67badass]

Bon Scott is my fav to but he wore a dress in the early days, this dude wasn,t bad for his time your mom loved him lol, ck the earlier days out he wasn't much diff than Bon RIP ;-}

[BillEyepatchCarson]

Ac/Bc Sucked...they should ditch brian johnson too...bon scott was hands down the best frontman for Ac/Dc

[AnarchyX2]

WHAT THE FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC­CCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK­KKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bigjim10011]

wow this guy must have wrote this gay song himself lol. angus would never write trash like this.

[gamemasterzoomzoomom]

@bigjim10011 You do realize Bon sang this song too right?

[bigjim10011]

@gamemasterzoomzoomom oh no! well it must have been bc he was trying to get laid haha. this other guy really seems like he enjoys the song lol.

[frehleysboots]

@bigjim10011 it was malcolm and Angus who wrote it!!!
