This is the place for all of us Army members to talk about the music that just can't stand up to Classic Van Halen/David Lee Roth. In other words...here's your non-VH/DLR music forum.

Thats pre-Bon ! When they had that other dude for a very short while.

You mean Dave Evans ?

[FORD]

I think that's Dave Evans in the scarf, but who the fuck are the other two?

Did AC/DC have another rhythm section prior to Mark Evans & Phil Rudd??

If it wasn't for Angus being in this picture, I would have thought it was a picture of some Sweet /T-Rex wannabe band.

Of course, I've heard the Dave Evans version of "Can I Sit Next To You Girl" and "Rockin in the Parlour" and he DOES sing like a Sweet/T-Rex wannabe.

Eddie VH said in an interview that after he returned from an AC/DC show in the early 80's, he was so amazed by the show that he wrote the riff to 'Panama'.

Never really thought about it, but that actually does resemble an Ac/Dc riff
:eek:

Yep, it's a long way to the top. ;)

[Knucklebones]

no, Dog Eat Dog.

Panama's main riff after the intro is almost a direct copy of that song's main riff

LET THERE BE ROCK (1977)
(Young, Young, Scott)

In the beginning
Back in nineteen fifty-five
Man didn't know about a rock 'n' roll show
And all that jive
The white man had the smoltz
The black man had the blues
No one knew what they was gonna do
But Tchaikovsky had the news
He said -
"Let there be light", and there was light
"Let there be sound", and there was sound
"Let there be drums", and there was drums
"Let there be guitar", and there was guitar
"Let there be rock"

And it came to pass
That rock 'n' roll was born
All across the land every rockin' band
Was blowing up a storm
The guitarman got famous
The businessman got rich
And in every bar there was a super star
With a seven year itch
There were fifteen million fingers
Learning how to play
And you could hear the fingers picking
And this is what they had to say
"Let there be light"
"Sound"
"Drums"
"Guitar"
"Let there be rock"

One night in a club called `The Shaking Hand'
There was a ninety-two decibel rocking band
The music was good and the music was loud
And the singer turned and he said to the crowd -
"Let there be rock"

AC/DC is still a fantastic show. Are they planning on hitting the road anytime soon?

What's the 411 on AC/DC's first lead singer (before Bon Scott)? I'd didn't know that Scott was their second lead singer until I posted here.

Their first lead singer was Dave Evans.

This is from mp3.com:

"..... In terms of rock could-have-beens, Dave Evans is one of the best, as in Pete Best. In this case, the inevitably huge rock group that the fellow in question quit or was fired from too early to taste the big time was Australia's AC/DC. "Internal conflicts" is the euphemistic description of the reason front-line vocalist Evans departed the group in 1974, only one year following the original formation of AC/DC. In plain talk, the singer seems to have violated Keith Richards' number one rule for achieving success: he failed to show up. His job went to the group's chauffeur, Bon Scott. This is one of several examples of a driver landing an important position in a rock band. The chauffeur for Ringo Starr apparently became the bassist for Mothers of Invention, following a threat by leader Frank Zappa to hire the next person who walked in the door.

At any rate, this was hardly the end of Dave Evans as a rocker. Only 17 when he got into the group that became AC/DC, Evans has had plenty of time to investigate new musical formations. In 1975, he began hopping along with a band called Rabbit, quite popular in the suburbs of Sydney and eventually signed to CBS. The legacy of this band includes not just a dull series of bad reviews, but many exciting legends of debauchery involving groupies and whomever else managed to crawl down the hutch to party.

Rabbit fell victim to the hound dogs of the music business by 1978. The singer's next major efforts involved trying to create more status as a bandleader. Between the late '70s and mid- '80s, he fronted outfits such as Dave Evans & Hot Cockerel and Dave Evans & Thunder Down Under, trying to hold out in the commercial arena what was a losing battle between hard rock and disco. He only nabbed a recording contract for the latter group when he agreed to plant synthesizers in the guitar-sodden tundra. What he needed even more was a lawyer, however. Legal problems aborted the album just as it was beginning to kick. Things began to improve for the singer -- literally he could be said to be in ecstasy -- when the Ecstasy record label reissued the album, following it up with a new release entitled A Hell of a Night: Tribute to Bon Scott ..... "

Can't argue with the first four.

I still got the first two on vinyl and all 6 of the Bon originals on CD

Those Australian LP's sound really good.....warmer than the Atlantic vinyl.

"Albert Productions" is the label.

You'd never want to digitize that shit.
