[pedrokemist1]

gr8 tune lol, excellent!!!!

[vanjacekic]

R.I.P. dear Bon...ROCK IN PEACE!!! thank you

[millerjohn6]

When I first bought "Let There Be Rock", on vinyl, "Crabsody In Blue" was included, but years later, when I was replacing all my vinyl with CD's, it had been removed. Also, when I first bought "Powerage", there was no "Rock N' Roll Damnation", but when it was released on CD, it was included.

[blondcharming]

my favorite song !!!

[MrViniacdc]

ac dc the best

[lukisbg]

awesome song

[DomeTheRocker]

I really love this song.. Bon Scott was the best frontman of all times..

[latin0heat67]

AC/DC will never sell out like ozy or alice cooper

[johnp0729]

I've had the Let There Be Rock album for nine months and I'm hearing this song for the first time.

[ProfessorLaytonFifa]

@johnp0729 yes this song is only on the australian version.

[YouSee804]

@johnp0729 This was only on the australian version.

[sjcsiba]

I can't remember this song being on the European version either.

[blingblingno12]

scratch, scratch, ach worth it

[angryhippo2910]

kinda like big balls

[angryhippo2910]

Ride on Bon

[samuskroto]

WOW!! Impresionant!



[barbergreg]

I just can't listen to ACDC without Bon Scott. It just isn't the same.  I like some of their new ( new?...dam am I old...lol.) music... but keep thinking how much better it would sound if Bon Scott were singing it.

[RaunchyRocker]

This ain't no rare song ! The Fuckwits took it off in the eighties in america - fuckin' fuckwits !

[nikogg93]

walking sideways sideway walking

[bstock10]

Miss the Bon! Everyone give me hell about not liking the mechanic but he just dont cut it man!

[KILLNemesis7840]

Why did they take off that song on the international version of let there be rock?

[davidwigs]

@KILLNemesis7840 Because this song is about insects crawling around Bon's genitals (probably some form of STD) In 1977, this was flagged very inappropriate in countries like the US so they demanded that they change the track. At the time, Dirty Deeds (the album) wasn't released in the US, so they put on Problem Child in it's place.

[SuperDriedFruit]

@davidwigs It says it in the title - Crabs.

[davidwigs]

@SuperDriedFruit Well they move on down an they crawl around And you start to scratch, when they start to hatch Oh but when they start to bite then it's time you saw the light for an appointment, Before you start to scream that's when you apply the cream blues ointment, come again Well the doctor said "We got to make'em dead"' And when they start to itch you go out and you take the bitch for an appointment Well you rub it on and you rub it in That doesn't sound like ordinary crabs to me

[SuperDriedFruit]

@davidwigs These crabs wear super-hero capes.

[barbergreg]

@davidwigs Lobster's maybe?

[davidwigs]

@barbergreg It's about crab louse, that's why it's called Crabsody in Blue. They are notorious for infesting human genitals.

[PutItAway101]

Who said ACDC never did ballads. LOL

[fridgeman05]

Yeah it's weird that the remastered version of

LTBR doesn't have this song on

[randomrighthere561]

0:32 on kinda looks strange :/

[acesobrian]

Very similiar to Ride On.

[someguyonaskateboard]

loooks like i need a diff copy of let there be rock ;-/

[ManhunterFromMars]

Hilarious

[johnnysfreelove]

bon ur the god r i p ,,,, i cant listen to brian much ,,,,bon rated worlds best front man

[slagdraggin1313]

What album is this on??????????

[visualthings]

@slagdraggin1313

This brilliant piece is on the album Let There Be Rock (EU and AUS original releases)

[vtwinlunatic]

Perfect blues, perfect band, perfect vocals with that gritty real life humour. Frank Zappa asked- 'Does humour belong in music' AC/DC and Bon answered yes.

[redphonedeb]

Bon had such an amazing vocal range, Brian could never sing like this, low, sexy and sleazy. Bon is such an amazing lyric writer too, almost a poet - lines like 'I didn't know if you were legal tender, but I spent you just the same' from Love at first Feel and 'like a Venus with Arms' from Touch too Much - poetry!

[shootstathrill]

@redphonedeb I think Brian could handle it, he does The Jack really well and it's a similar sound throughout much of the song.

[poofenstein09]

Theres something haunting about listening to songs like this with the great Bon. Just listening to his voice on songs like this one and especially Ride On is just something beautiful. Makes me sad that such a legend cant be with us today.

RIP Bon Scott.

[LarsPjokk1]

So cool song. Too bad it was removed from the CD version of Let There be Rock.

[redphonedeb]

@LarsPjokk1 I was lucky enough to get a cd with it on , think must have been an import.

[Rosinenkind]

Booon wir lieben Dich. We miss you so much.

[bartebk]

Bon Scott Rocks!!!!!

[bonbelami]

Before you start to scream, that's when you apply the cream, bluesointment... Sorry US and Japan for missing out on that one...

[DrkMths]

this song is on the back tracks cd or whatever its called. this song and many other rare songs

[BaronBallermann66]

Who the fuck is Brian Johnson???????????????Bon Scott 4ever

[siomaslt]

@BaronBallermann66 erm brian johnson. made back in black. so in your place i would be quiet...

[Tigakoluful]

Why is this song not on the album?! Great song.

[malveiros]

It's itching now... I'm starting to scratch.. Sht... They moved on down!

[LizardKing660]

cool. i've never heared this in the past. i hope i find ist somewhere on a rehearsal cd like aftershocks, but naturrally in the bon scott time ;)

[Nightmeare]

what other ac/dc songs are like this bluesy and melow?

[PureLaughProduction2]

@Nightmeare ride on is kinda a melow song by AC/DC. its on the dirt deeds albumb

[Nightmeare]

@PureLaughProduction2 I know :) You know others?

[Syze1]

@Nightmeare

Ride On

Down payment Blues

Little Lover

[Starskypuss1]

I remember Blues ointment. Great for ant bites , bee stings and of course CRABS. F-chin hell I'm gettin old. Hahahaha..... R.I.P BON.

[VintageVoltage351]

I got this on vinyl in a box set back in 80 i think. Black cover with guitar and flying fingers.

Not rare song in Australia if you were here back then. All i see is the yank version cd with the different cover at the stores, missing this song! Cheaper compared to proper Alberts copy.

I think angus's dead cockroach spasm on stage could be flashbacks from having Crabs...

RIP Bon

[TheNorwegianACDCFan]

dirty blues :D

[malveiros]

The best, AC/DC rules!

[girl0loves0acdc]

Bon Scott is a sexy motherfucker.

[GuitarMats]

this was actually one of the first songs ive heard of ACDC and I think its very good !

[MrAlarmed]

@GuitarMats Welcome my friend, enjoy many years of AC/DC. The rabbit hole goes very deep.

[stujam2]

When bon say "When we start" you can hear his Scottish accent

[nistelrooyforever10]

[DutchmanPF93]

Its not a rare song and its not released every where in the world except USA and japan this song is in the Let there be rock CD from Australia only ¬¬

[BastyGuitar]

@DutchmanPF93 wrong

[carapils1]

[santinorxk]

God I love this so much, makes me feel good

[Hologhoul]

Angus' blues solo on this one..........AMAZING

[PowertoInfinity]

[holidayhouse03]

Bon Scott at his poetic best

[kurtespo]

When i was in College i had the import 'Let There Be Rock "Album this song to my suprise was on there & I related to it because I go the Blues in college if you know what i mean SCRACH IT lol

[a1jungle]

love this song...i have the lp...thanks for posting!!!!!

[RythmTR]

look at 1:40!! i think Bon lost his big balls on the stage! o_O poor Bon, maybe its the real reason why he's dead :P

[TheNorwegianACDCFan]

it says that this song was released everywere but usa and japan, but if so why dont I have it on my let there be rock? I bought my in Norway.

[rockandrolleracdc]

he dont know shit (:

it was replaced by problem child in some countires obv not Norway :)

[blackbowrock]

love this tune!! awesome

[kiltsonfire164]

This song should've been on '74 Jailbreak.

[prokip901]

why the 5 star rating, it was like listening to snails screw.Yes, bon is dead but does that mean anything we dig up has to get 5 stars as its a throwaway track that i'd never reach for or listen to more than once. The lyrics are terrible..his singing is fair & I like bon in general. Yes, I know that I ruffled true bon fans but growup, hes not fuckin god...& the songs sucks!

[rockandrolleracdc]

BON IS GOD (:

[prokip901]

bon is God? I thought clapton was..LOL Bon is better than the other singer by far as his personality meshed well with the music, something thats rare.Udo from accept does it, kiss, even david lee roth..has his stamp all over the songs. So, maybe Bon is indeed with God as his # 2.

[rockandrolleracdc]

ahaa i hate eric clapton lol.

[RevJim1313]

Yeah but a missing AC/DC track about crabs...Come on man! That's a pretty cool find...

[veganstanger]

you are an idiot with no taste in music.

This song fucking rocks--it's awesome and hilarious.

You wish you were half as clever as Bon.

[veganstanger]

and that was a reply to prokip901, obviously.

[prokip901]

oh, & who are you..pal, some big mouth who feels bon was the world's greatest singer...sorry, the song is a bore & I liked ac/dc when bon was around! How about you..wanna-be....you're just pissed becasue someone don't like what you like it, what a wuss, get over it & yourself....

[veganstanger]

LOL! Well, it's hardly worth even replying to your post. Clearly you aren't the most intelligent person who has ever posted on youtube.

Yes, I actually do think Bon is among the greatest singers of all times. Yes, I think this song is awesome. I am fine with people disagreeing with me--but if you post negative, rude comments about an AC/DC song online, you better expect people to respond back to you in kind!

You, sir, appear to be the wuss here. Oh, and btw, I'm a woman. Thanks, dumbass.

[RythmTR]

i made an SD card of 2gb with all the studio songs of acdc, rare and demos too, plus the best live performance and a live version of all the songs i can find. i love a lot of bands and artists but no one is good enough to my ears to get all the works on the same player... my english is not so good, i hope you understand me a little bit :P

[acdc126]

...all that to say that i agree with you and for the others, let there be rock.

yes i use a second account :P

[prokip901]

oh, excuse me little lady with the vulgar mouth, let me guess you're 21...wow, what a background in music. Did you see bon in 77-78'? nope. I was a huge fan but know hes not a great singer though he had an easy to recognize tone which made up a lot of his range issues etc. ..same with david roth.. + his personality ( both) comes through in the music( gravy) I feel you have no clue in general about music so its like debating with a tree.Go text something...

[superstoogeburger]

Awesome! It was Bons' birthday the other day, so I had about 35 beers and got good and blind pissed just how he would've got...He would've been 63 now if he hadn't of carcked it gettin' so mega shitfaced.....I miss the Bon to this day. I'm still angry that he died the way he did!... ... I've listened to this song since I was about 8 or 10 years old. TIMELESS!!!!

[angusrules53]

man not fair!!

[gtpck32]

About what?

[angusrules53]

it wasnt realeased in usa

[giancarlopi1970]

Mitico!

[tomitstube]

thanks for loading this, i read it was the record label who dropped this tune from the international releases, and that it's only on the Australian version.

[bustedup]

don't think I've heard a song about that particular disease before...

[MsLouloutte34]

merci!

[frankisfunny2007]
