the singer really plays the clown... it's his very own way to be punk in 77...funny music with those Sweet backin' vocals... what a strange band they were at that time...nearly a parody of themselves and rock n roll...

I'm still waiting for your reply. The delay makes me think you don't know what you're on about.

What I understand was that he was strongly considered for the role of frontman for Acca Dacca. He certainly had the voice & charisma was a Bon Scott type of singer. Apparently he asked to auditioned for the band but failed to show on 3 occassions & thus blowing his chance to replace Scott & paving the way for Johnson. The band were also vary of his fast lifystyle & thought that he might end up like Scott - which proved tragicaly true. Ironically he died at the age of 33 (the same age as Scott)

@thecelestialtoymaker You are about right here. In fact Gary did audition for the band though but like you say they had their doubts about Gary's lifestyle as did the Heavy Metal Kids.
