If I tried to sing this...

My vocal chords would be laying on the table in front of me after the first refrain.

 
As many of us know, Brian Johnson is also a highly successful vintage and modern car racer. He drove in the Daytona 24 Hours just a little while back.

Not surprisingly he's a big fan of all the type of cars we like (he's an especially big nut of vintage Jaguars).

Here is ~His Racing Team~

By the way, Angus Young's brother was one of the original players in the "Easybeats", an Aussie group that did ~Friday on My Mind~
 
In high school, a buddy of mine had a black Camaro, and he'd always blare this on his stereo. Good times.

I like Brian Jones and AC/DC's material during the Brian Jones era, but there was a certainly quality in Bon Scott's voice that was almost demonic in nature. When Bon Scott sang "Dirty Deeds", it sounded like he was really going to carry those deeds out. It's a little more than amazing that AC/DC was able to find a vocalist like Brian Jones after Bon Scott's passing that could sing the Bon Scott material.

Personally I could do without the demonic imagery, but I do like watching Angus rip on that Gibson! What a showman!
 
Greg: I think you're correct about Brian having the fastest time on a particular season of Top Gear.

Besides Brian Johnson the other cool rocker is his buddy, Nick Mason (Pink Floyd drummer).

Mason owns (and occasionally races) a '62 Ferrari 250 GTO. That Ferrari is worth approximately $46,000,000 in todays market (yes...that's the correct amount of zeros!)

Mason has run at vintage races here in the US but he's real big at Goodwood and the Classic LeMans events.

You can see some of Mason's cars ~HERE~

There are a lot of rich people in the world and many of them seem unhappy or screwed up.......but if I were rich, I hope I'd live like these guys (both are cool, "real" and generous with their particular charities too).
