As an angst ridden teenager I became an instant fan the first time I put the needle to vinyl I collected every recording I could find including some Australian Imports my parents often screamed at me to turn it off as AC/DC blasted from of my room on a shitty stereo record player with blown speakers. I know for a fact they hated Bon Scotts voice which brought me great solace. I remember cranking "Highway To Hell" repeatedly when it first came out it put me in "suspended animation" for hours. Bon's voice sent chills up and down my spine as Angus, Malcom and the boys kicked me into overdrive air guitar madness, they taught me how to rock, how to laugh at and question my christian upbringing and was always was a good time. Ride on Bon.
