His lifestyle killed him. I've been clean from everything, including alcohol and tobacco, for 30 years. It was either get clean, or die. Wake the fuck up!
Men,I want to take your signature,lucky men,komplimente.I was 12 y.o. this time and I was leaving in ussr ,1st time meet ac/dc in 1983 with albom high way to hell and from this time cannot stop leasening this band
So much passion, intensity, and dedication to being great. Just the way Rock music should be. \mm/R.I.P. Malcolm and Bonn\mm/ By the way, this song kicks so much ass. Truly one of the best AC/DC songs ever recorded or played live.
This is from World Series of Rock July 28th, 1979 Cleveland, Ohio. One of the best concerts I ever went to. Scorpions, Journey, Thin Lizzy, AC/DC, Ted Nugent and Aerosmith. The entire AC/DC performance is on TH-cam
AC/DC was 2nd I believe. Young Scorps, full on spandex opened. On the field, so flipping hot. Case of beer in two gallon jugs, styrofoam cooler. Big girl, struggling, sees the cooler and tries to sit, cooler explodes, beer saved. Nuge and Smith, agreed one of the best concerts ever.
Saw them at Summer Jam Chicago 1978, Aerosmith, Foreigner, Frank Marino & Mohagany Rush and AC/DC. I was 16, all my friends at school thought they were punk and hated them, I loved them. When Highway to Hell came out my friends liked them after that album. It's still my favorite ACDC album, 2nd is Let There Be Rock.
If you substitute Rush for Walter Egan it's the line up I saw at Comiskey Park that summer AC/DC was a special guest,Foreigner & Aerosmith didn't even exist following FM&MR & AC/DC I was in 8th grade never heard of either..didn't even know it could be like that...what an eye opener.
bon Scott,was a true legend.his performances in stage were breathtaking and his voice would send chills down my spine,even after his untimely death he will always remain in my heart the true frontman of a.c. dc forever! ride on that highway to help bon!
Powerage soo underrated album. X me is one of the best ,it is very hard, primitive and powerfull, sound of guitars is heavy, much heavy than other albums. Track list very intense, 4 me the best song are:riff, sin, kicked in the teeth and , down payment\gimme a bullet. 1978 is the yars of my born, cool.
and the beauty of Bonn was that you listen to this, his vocals are as good at the studio version. Completely masterful singer, composer, showman. Look at how he gets the non-mic arm bent and back from his torso to get his chest thrust out. Little power moves like that just make the live stage show!
I first saw AC/DC opening up for TED NUGENT at Madison square garden on the highway to hell tour I had never heard of them but all I could remember is seeing this small guy in shorts constantly bobbing his head up and down up and down as they played their 45 minute set. I went out the next day and bought the highway to hell album and didn’t take it off my turn table till September!
Any band that endures as long will inevitably change somewhat. but regardless, this band is truly unique and still captures the masses like non other. if God had a CD player (or record player even better) i'm sure he would put on Powerage! ;)
Nabs Ludwig I watch that 78 show at least twice a week ! SIN CITY is my fave but all are good. First tour after Bon was awesome too, I saw it at capitol cntr in dc.
This is the real deal, just the way I remember them in 78....Only just imagine the sound a lot cleaner and a whole lot louder (plus them being just the opening act for a bunch of other great bands at their peak)
I was there...right down front a few rows back...it was general admission! So you had to crowd your way up as close as you could get! And let me tell ya, this recording, although i appreciate it, does no justice to how great they sounded out front!!
Riding on a motorcycle through the night. Suddenly we came over the top of the mountains. Reno Nevada was below us. All light up with neon lights. At that monument for the first time I realized this song is about Las Vagus.
I'm surprised there aren't 30 people claiming to be the one who caught the frisbee. Since everyone on youtube was at every show that every band ever did.
Sin City off of the Powerage, raw and in your face, ass-kicking studio album that really captured the essence of what Bon and the boys could really bring. Other hard hitting tunes from The Powerage album include: Rock n Roll Damnation, Gimme a bullet, Gone shootin, Whats next to the moon and Kicked in the teeth.
The only time I saw AC/DC with Bon Scott at this show and I don't remember it. 714's and alot of alcohol caused the blackout but my buddies Pete and George said I had a good time! I was 18 years old at this concert. Seem them many times later in life but never again with Bon Scott. as the frontman.
Even though the audio quality is not the best, it´s FAR MORE better than the horrible sound AC/DC has today! Way to much gain. No Bon Scott, no Malcolm Young, no Phil Rudd. This video here shows AC/DC, not a few old, tired man. The 70s rules!
Hosenrolle1 The newer albums of theirs have cut back on the gain. Compare the guitar tones of Let There Be Rock to the tones of Stiff Upper Lip. Have you ears?
Have YOU ears? Those new albums might sound not so crappy as the albums of the 80s, but they still sound like overproduced studio productions, with filters etc. Listen for example to an album like "Let there be rock", the beginning of the song Overdose. You can even hear the humming of the amplifier! But today, everything sounds artificial, probably because todays audience don´t want that raw sound AC/DC had back in the 70s. They want "perfect" studio productions.
I agree with you. I love the raw grittiness of old AD/DC. However, your comment came off as saying that their new albums have too much gain; when in fact it was the old ones that were loaded up on it.
But their sound today has much more distortion. Back then, the sound was very bluesy, the guitars sound dry and powerful. Today, for me it sounds very "juicy" and loud, but not powerful. And the bass too. In the 70s, you could hear the notes the bass was playing, also a very dry and powerful sound, but today it´s not. :(
Don't care if it's an old VHS tape, I'm just glad I can see this. Hey Mike where is this show from? I love Bon throwing the frisbee back out. What a cool dude. SO sad I never got to see him. Just missed him at the July 79 Day on the Green. Was so fired up for the next time and he died 6 months later. ugh
it was in Cleveland at the municipal stadium , in 07/29/1979 at 10am we were in the back smoking tystik, there was 7 bands , journey , ac/dc, dep leppard, hell I cant even remember all of them. they jammed though.
Greatest frontman in the history of Rock & Roll.
Yes he was brother
Greatest of all time!! Bon was, is and will forever be The G.O.A.T!
This is from the World Series of Rock at Cleveland Municipal Stadium in Cleveland, Ohio July 28th. 1979
Bon’s legend will live on forever!
Mhm!
His lifestyle killed him. I've been clean from everything, including alcohol and tobacco, for 30 years. It was either get clean, or die. Wake the fuck up!
If I was there and had two beers when he started playing it would the best moment of my life! Love this album
I was at that concert
18 yrs old and crazy af. Quaaludes and liquor. What a great memory
Men,I want to take your signature,lucky men,komplimente.I was 12 y.o. this time and I was leaving in ussr ,1st time meet ac/dc in 1983 with albom high way to hell and from this time cannot stop leasening this band
this is real AC DC, wonderfull !!
In there prime!
The IMMORTAL ONES.
So much passion, intensity, and dedication to being great. Just the way Rock music should be. \mm/R.I.P. Malcolm and Bonn\mm/ By the way, this song kicks so much ass. Truly one of the best AC/DC songs ever recorded or played live.
So awesome. Grew up with Bon Scott, he'll always be my favorite!
THIS. The BEST.
Stella Waldvogel did you make a comment awhile back about Seabiscuit be on the rolling rock bottle???
Stella???
I've heard it was him. I don't recall commenting about that here, but I probably did and forgot.

I was there! They were all fabulous!
Lucky 🤞
Where is this live footage?
3:43 THAT BASS TONE!!!
The mono quality adds a touch of nostalgia to this old film clip!
God, just imagine how massive this must have sounded THERE.... My favorite AC/DC song. Great version. All Bon footage is gold
Make No Mistake Bon Scott Is AC DC !
Gotta love the Skynyrd belt buckle! Bonny!!!!🤘😬🤘
If I understand right, both band was the same tour, just before LS plain crash. And they liked each other company;)
@@mikamikkola4483man that’s awesome! And only took my 2 years to reply!? 🤘😬🤘 I’m still learning TH-cam.😝
Alltime Boss of rock n roll.....!
Saw them a week later in Chicago with Aerosmith and Foreigner on 8/5/78! What a great show!
Maybe my favorite AC/DC song. Bought Power Age in 77 and I still think it's the best AC/DC Album.
Kurt Sherrick it is
Brian provided the necessary heavy artillery
LOL....I was 6 when they did this...I love them still...big fan all my life..R.I.P Bon...you are truly missed..
Saw them at Summer Jam Chicago 1978, Aerosmith, Foreigner, Frank Marino & Mohagany Rush and AC/DC. I was 16, all my friends at school thought they were punk and hated them, I loved them.

I was also there . I was 15 years young and a huge fan ever since.
@@darinkeller3194 Wow, I'm 16 right now and that would have been a blast for me!

One of the best songs by one of the best bands

Sensualidad, presencia escénica y una voz única, te extraño Bon
Я плачу 😢 БОН БЫЛ ЛУЧШИМ R. I. P
The World Series of Rock at Cleveland Municipal Stadium. AWESOME!
Amazing!! And the crunch of the drums also!! Wow
This was at the old Cleveland Municipal stadium. The second to last LIVE show Bon ever did in the US before his extremely unfortunate demise.
They didn't tour the U.S.
in '79?
@@timholtzclaw8930 yes, they did.
@@timholtzclaw8930 - this was their 2nd to last show before Bon’s passing.
@@timholtzclaw8930 July 28th, 1979
You See the comments from below of people that were actually there@@timholtzclaw8930
Bon, RIP. Still the sleaziest voice in rock - and that's saying something....
Freakin raw,outta tune, in your face rock n roll!!! Love,love it!!!! And still tight as a drum!!! 4 chords makes hordes of money!!!
and the beauty of Bonn was that you listen to this, his vocals are as good at the studio version. Completely masterful singer, composer, showman. Look at how he gets the non-mic arm bent and back from his torso to get his chest thrust out. Little power moves like that just make the live stage show!
Hot Video of 70s AC-DC is Magical. Groovy.
Fantastic frontman
True legend!
Mind blown away 🤠
I would give everything to be on one of theit early concerts.

Love it. Bon at his best! But when wasn't he I guess.
A musical attack like a guided missile - a warhead of rock solid rhythm with awesome lead guitar and vocals
Un grande bon su vos única mejor vocalista d acdc
Once upon a time, there was a monster, and its name was...........AC/DC!!!
rockandrolldad Somewhere in there I spoze but I lost them after for thoz about2. Black Ice ? mmmmm No.

Yes...nothing like a good dose of that band to get you charged up for the day, or the week.
Sin City a favorite too, it kills live! (like the rest...)
Awesome. Seen them in Chicago at Comiskey Park '78 I was 13 this still pumps me up.
mi banda favorita por siempre AC ⚡DC
awesome performance.the likes of which will never be seen in the future.
Powerage was an incredible album!
wow… Bon is a God, this video is gold. Thanks Mike for posting this.
Wonderful !!!
Love acdc
this band alone pulled rock and roll through the shit of disco era and gave it it's second wind.
I was there. 14 yrs old.
RIP Scott Sandy.
R.I.P. Bon 🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘🤘😢😢😢

This song makes me wanna break some glass or smash plates. Damn that energy!!!
Riding on a motorcycle through the night. Suddenly we came over the top of the mountains. Reno Nevada was below us. All light up with neon lights. At that monument for the first time I realized this song is about Las Vagus.
This is Cleveland July 28, 1979
I'm the same age as Angus. These guys will always be the #1 band for me. Bonn could kill it for sure.
4:23 classic Bon
Thank you so much
Бон Скот-БРАВО!!!!!!!!
I'm surprised there aren't 30 people claiming to be the one who caught the frisbee. Since everyone on youtube was at every show that every band ever did.
I was there ,good fkn times
Wowwwwwwwwww🎤🎤🎤🎧😳😳😳⭐⭐⭐⭐
They were a great live band! Everytime they vame to San Antonio it was a packed house!
I actually ordered this 🎥 on VHS and still have it on tape and the 1979 let there be rock"concert 🎥 on 📀 and blue-rey limited edition package ☺😀😉

Trop bon AC DC
Angus is the man, but Bon Scott? Can't take your eyes off him. He was that incredible.
Angus's head is like a built-in metronome. You can time your beat to it. Lol
Bon Scott fabuloso
Watchin Cliff Williams pounding away on the bass in the background.
Love it

Crank it up!!!
