They are both good singers and don't take anything away from Brian asx he was the only person who could take over from Bon and do him justice. In fact there are a few Bon songs that Brian will never do live as he feels he can't do them justice.

Afraid I'm biased here.Years ago I used to be a bit of a fan of a Newcastle band called Geordie with Brian Johnson and his brother Vic but I can understand why you'd prefer Bon Scott. I have the same debate between Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins ex Genesis.wave

I saw the live earlier this year and what a show. Angus rocked as usual and Brian was an amazing frontman.

Ah, we'll agree to differ.At least ACDC maintained their integrity where Genesis changed from a mega band (they were up there with Pink Floyd and had a 21st century stage show back in the 70s)...but as I say, they changed to a backing band for Phil Collins.

I certainly do particularly his older stuff. I saw him in Leeds in 1984. Born in The USA tour. That's when he really became popular. Before that he had a cult following.
