I never got the chance to see Bon perform (if you did, consider yourself very, very lucky) with Angus, Malcolm and the boys... but I will say this, he is the reason I love the band and their music.

Say what will about Brian Johnson's influence and impact (both in record sales and the bands now world wide appeal), but if not for Bon... there would be no AC/DC. Period!

This doc on Bon Scott (part 2 is also available) is well done and worth your time.

RIP Bon.
