Bon Scott remains one of the most beloved and celebrated singers in rock history. This road was shut down and turned into one long concert stage. In addition to the rolling concert, the festival also accomplished a new world record. Back in June , Rolling Stone published a feature about classic rock holograms. Each one of them is essential listening. Picking a favorite is difficult.
Even more difficult? Dissecting these albums down to their individual songs to create this list. Whether you've successfully snuck into someone's bedroom past curfew or only dreamed of that happening in your youth, "Night Prowler" is the perfect soundtrack for that moment.
Obviously, stick around. Did we mention the sex is outstanding? The slower tempo of "Love Hungry Man" adds to its seduction and is about as close to crooning Scott ever got. Angus Young's solo drips with bluesy swagger and really put this underrated track over the top. As far as songs about unsuccessfully trying to pick up a woman at a bar go, "Shot Down In Flames" might just be the coolest, most unapologetically badass one of all time. Sure, Scott didn't get the girl, but he still seems to be having a blast in the process.
Its big chorus is super radio-friendly. Better late than never. Songs like this can only be written when a band is just starting out and fighting tooth and nail for their big break. They stuck to their guns and have maintained their grit for decades. If you're looking for the perfect song to blare with the windows down after a rough day at work, you've got the song you're looking for right here.
Now, if only this outstanding song could take off on classic rock radio in the United States. More murder! What more could you want from a rock song? Go back and listen, because that will be time well spent.
