Bon Scott’s Pre AC/DC Bandmates Shares Vintage Letters From Late Singer

December 23, 2014

Bon Scott died from alcohol poisoning on Feb. 15, 1980, just as AC/DC was beginning work on ack In Black, the album
that made them arguably the biggest hard rock act in the world in the ’80s. In the subsequent years, as songs like “You
Shook Me All Night Long” and the title cut became ubiquitous anthems on classic rock radio, and AC/DC’s stature exploded. More than that, the legend of Scott and his vocals on several AC/DC classics “ Highway To Hell,” “Whole Lotta Rosie” and “T.N.T.” grew as well.
