Starting off August with a Little Electricity

It's the first day of the 8th month and I am celebrating on my sofa with a little AC/DC. In my quest to do find something interesting to view on the telly, I've come across a vintage AC/DC concert on VH1 Classic. As much as I admire current lead singer Brian Johnson, original lead vocalist Bon Scott certainly gets my vote as being one of rock's most outstanding frontmen in history.

The voice--snarling and whiny when singing some of the most incredibly clever lyrics regarding the seamier side of life peppered with sex, drugs, and rock & roll... Yes, I used that ubiquitous phrase, but hey, it fits in this case.

The look--wild eyes full of piss and vinegar accompanied with a lean muscular body poured into the tightest pair of jeans since Robert Plant...

The songs--Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, TNT, Whole Lotta Rosie, Highway to Hell, The Jack, Big Balls

I could probably make more intelligent comments than that, but when it comes to the late Mr. Scott, the more straightforward the better---just like him...

Until next time, keep it on "11"...
