The fact this song didn't become more famous is insane to me
The whole album
this is a killer song to play on guitar and one of AC/DC's harder ones to get it just perfect with the timing.
Why can’t I ‘like’ this comment twice!!??
The sad fact is most people never heard of AC/DC Until the Back in Black album &. Learned their original singer passed on 💔
Before it was released
Es uno de los mejores albumes que han tenido, y concuerdo con tu opinión
When Bon Scott passed, over 20 of my friends sat around a keg of beer and cried our eyes out! Rock and roll seriously died!
Yes, remember when the news came out the next day. It was so tough, disbelief
I saw them in 1978 at the Glasgow Apollo and got a surprise as on the previous gigs it was always live wire that opened the show but when you heard the first few chords and saw Angus on top of the speaker stacks wow it blew everyone's mind
You lucky guy 👍 wish i saw the Powerage Tour but was to young then but i saw Bon and Band 1979 in Bern support was Judas Priest ohhh men what i party we had 😁👍👍👍🙏
Riff Raff is one of the greatest heavy songs of all time!
The way Angus falls into that second and third lead solo is insane. Love it. Notice how Angus changes his riff in the second solo too. Very clever.
I must have listened to this song a thousand times, but each new time I hear it, I feel the way you look: pure joy! I still get goosebumps!
The more I listen to this song even after over 40 years , it is such a masterful piece of technical Rock Music , so many chord changes and it's full on like a freight train , Riff Raff do it for a laugh , Killer cut 😎
Powerage & Highway To Hell were the band at their peak with Bon. If Powerage is rocking your socks, you're going to love Highway To Hell. Mind you, you've still got another 5 brilliant tracks to go on this one.
I was a teenager as these albums were coming out, buying each within days of their release. Grew up listening to AC/DC & still love all their stuff today, but Bon was the man for me.
Nothing wrong with the Brian Johnson era, Back In Black, Flick Of The Switch and Blow Up Your Video are all awesome albums, but given the choice I'd listen to Powerage, Highway To Hell or Let There Be Rock mostly.
There's a sneaky live album, "If You Want Blood" comes in between Powerage & H To H as well, and it is fire.
While HTH is a cleaner more polished sound due to Mutt Lange’s influence, I think I prefer Powerage because it is a more raw sound. I also prefer the Powerage album lyrically.
I really like HTH too though.
Dirty deeds
@@inspectorvol951 Oh yeah. Powerage, broken down, is arguably their best album. Production aside, it stacks up against BIB.
Dirty deeds is my all time favorite but you simply cannot go wrong with an AC DC album
@@joeg3741 yeah, it is quite easy... you see some album with ACDC, buy it. Because - it is good. Even the weaker ones are MUCH better then 99% of other stuff...
Some nuance to ponder...Powerage was Cliff Williams's first album on bass. Some folks say George Young played on this album. This track is definitely Cliff. In all, Riff Raff is one of the best tracks the band laid down, if for no other reason than it can make you move.
The best ACDC song of all time.
Up to my neck in you, on this album is highly underrated, never gets a mention, and I love it man.
A lot of people dont realize that Angus was only 23 years old when this album was released, a further more only 25 when they made one of the biggest selling albums in the world
First time here. Great reaction vid! Seriously man.
Appreciate it!!
This was one of Eddie Van Halen's favorite songs.
Biz 100% real deal reactions👍♥️
Congrats on hitting that 20k Biz.
Thanks fam
Both Malcolm & Angus said Riff Raff is by far the hardest and most complicated song they play only a few guitarist could play attempt it live like Slash Eddie etc
They were part of a genre, Oz pub rock. It's best known protagonists, and totally out there, but there is so much more. Each band had it's own take. The main thread was it was derived from the particular bands live sound. And you had to play 100+ gigs to get a recording contract, so you were good. A bit simplistic, but I didn't want to write a 5000 word essay and still not get it.
Congrats on being the first reaction channel I've seen that doesn't ruin the whole thing by constantly hitting the pause button 👍
🙌🏿🙌🏿
Hey, new subscriber here. So glad you're enjoying AC/DC. Saw them 7 times, twice with Bon. Dude, you missed the end of the track already... 💪
DOPE thats the only way to describe riff raff
Congrats on 20K.
Thanks fam
You're the man bizmatic. You and everyone who loves the Bon era, should check out Mark Kozelek and his folk versions of this song and many others.
Been listening to them since I was 13, at the time most people thought they were incredibly heavy, saw them when I was 16 in 1980, and met them, went back stage and looked at his green velvet suit hung up, he had the red one on, pot of tea waiting for him after (Angus) he didn't drink alcohol, they blew me away, unfortunately never I saw them with Bonn. Riff Raff is one of my favourites. Malcolm was a genius, the engine of the band and an incredible songwriter as was Angus, pure rock and roll.
Next level!!! You right!!!
I love how this song, meaning the guitar 🎸 playing, left you searching for a comments, almost speechless lol
It's because great rock and roll needs little explanation!!!
It speaks for ITSELF!
Thank you for sharing your experience with us and please keep on listening/reacting to AC/DC 🤘😎❤
Cliffs bass is awesome too
Do cliff williams isolated and do malcolm isolated. Genius.
My favorite. 🎶
Phil is sick here.... Powerage is their best ever
Gotta love the energy,eh,Biz? I think I would wear myself out at this concert! XD
I might have this played at my funeral, I love it so much! :-)
Go all Bon !!!! ⚡
Its all next level for me but the speed and attitude gives it RIFF RAFF WE ONLY DO IT FOR A LAUGH.
WHEN YOUR YOUNG AND DUMB BUT YOUR ON FIRE AND YOUR PARENTS AND SOCIETY DOESN'T UNDERSTAND YOU
I love Brian Johnson, but BON SCOTT was fucking amazing!!!!!!!
Dude, watch the live at Apollo Glasgow version.
powerage is my fav album
No song gets me more pumped than Riff Raff when I’m playing that main riff.
Love this song. Dirty Boogie all the way.
Yea,Ya gotta give it up too Phil Rudd, those drums are None stop hard drivin on this jam.
If I'm listening to AC/DC then my neighbors are to. Crank it up to 11.
pure energy!!!!!!!!!
the picture they have on Spotify is fucking wrong, they have Brian Johnson. Powerage was still with Bon Scott.
Don't go driving while playing this Biz. You'll get yourself a speeding ticket.
Its a ticket waiting to happen 😂😂
Power-age is wrong. It's Powerage . . . . One smooth word with a soft "a".
Not myfav as far AC/DC goes. Still love it though.
Powerage is easily the most under-appreciated AC/DC album- There's not a single clunker on it. Kind of amazing when you consider it doesn't have any of their standards or hit singles on it either.
It is very very ultimately HARD for die hard ac dc fan to choose the best ac dc album between 'holy trinity' ac dc albums: let there be rock, powerage, highway to hell. There is not one single note on all songs of this three magnificent albums. What wholle lotta rosie is for let there be rock, that is riff raff for powerage or if you want blood for highway to hell - and that is only one combination - you can easily set numerous 'best' songs on holy trinity...
I would say Sin City just because it’s been a staple in their live show ever since.
I have always said this. The whole album kicks serious ass.
@@davidcampbell4174Similary ac dc die hard fan alwasy could ask himself what is so genious in ac dc songs that could be listening repedetly liftime... Is it Malcom with these superpower simplicity riffs, is is Phil and Cliff tightness in rhthym, is it Bon in supercharming sound of vocie, is it virtuosity playing and showmanship in Angus, all together? It stays written in stone - ac dc is the best rnr band in rnr history.
Plenty of people, including some critics, consider Powerage to be the greatest Rock n Roll album of the 70's and almost everyone considers it the best AC/DC album. Not sure 'underrated' applies unless you're like me and think no rating can possibly be high enough for this album.
The smile on your face when the music kicked in is exactly how I reacted when I first heard AC/DC when I was 14.. I’m now 56 and I still love them.
Best AC/DC-song ever.
1980: Named my first band after this song: RIFF RAFF!
Can you Fuckin' believe that Lead guitar work! Angus is the GOAT in my book and Im a fan of all the guitar rock gods.
I've never seen anyone move and play like Angus, especially when he was younger. A true guitar prodigy.. His whole body became the instrument. And what can one say about the composing of Angus and Malcolm...truly unparalleled with how many classic, great riffs and songs they have throughout the decades. When is a biopic or miniseries going to be made about them?!
True legend...But there are lots of insanely good guitarists out there...some of which are relatively unknown.
One of my favourite ACDC songs. The video of this song Live at the Apollo is insane. Angus goes off. You got to watch it.
One of the best opening riffs ever recorded!! Fyi
I am a huge AC/DC fan. Riff Raff is right up there with my favorite AC/DC songs of all time. Not a bad song on this album so keep em coming Biz! 💯
I LOVE playing this on my SG. It's such a killer RIFF (Raff) : )
Powerage is in my all-time top 5 albums.
I was around 9 years old when ACDC came on the scene here in Australia, and for the first time I heard them I was addicted. So, I was very lucky to grow with them and watch them become megastars. I have all of their 13 albums, and they are without a doubt, my all-time favorite band. I Just love to watch their WOW ! reaction and the instant smile and nodding of the head to the beat of their music, that these people on these reaction channels experience. It is testament to their incredible raw talent, and showmanship.
It's here! Riff Raff is finally here!
Hope you get all the subs you deserve bro you're the best Biz!! 💯😎
Thanks fam
This album is the only AC/DC album that I have left out of all the music that I used to have in my collection. This song is the epitome of rock and roll. I had this album on cassette tape when it came out and played as loud as I could in my car. Thanks AC/DC for all of the memories and your great music.
The major difference you will find between Bon Scott and Brian Johnson (Back In Black forward) is soul punk metal vs. corporate heavy music
That was the SHIT! That's what this was! When you started smilin, I knew it was on! AC/DC is Golden! I've been crazy for them since I could BE crazy, and believe me, I started young! We were stealin my best friends parents Corvette in the 5th grade just to give you an idea. I'm not saying we were smart, but we were having a rockin good time!
As Bon Scott would say a Rock and Roll Damnation like Hell ain't a bad place to be and that's no Riff Raff
My introduction to AC/DC, 1978 went to see Aerosmith. The lights go down and the opening act is about to start, never heard of them. A single light with Angus on top of the amps as he does the intro to this song. He jumps down and they just blow the place apart!
This one you should try Live at Apollo Theatre!!!!!!! Man, you Will know what is real energy
Malcolm Young sadly passed away November 2017 and he is the #1 most underrated rhythm guitarist. 😔 I hope one day he gets the recognition he deserves.
He's definitely not underrated. Malcolm is appreciated all over the guitar world.
Most songs on let there be rock, if you listen tight, Malcolm shines like a diamond. It's subtle, but the songs would not be the same without it. This was his particular magic. Like on Thunderstruck it's there and really makes the song for me, but can get lost in the raucousness of the song if you don't what you're listening to.
You HAVE to check out the music video version though, man! It gives and even better visual of what a spectacle their concert were, ESPECIALLY back in those days!
Look at live from Colchester!!! Phenomenal
The energy of this album is through the roof. This tune rocks. I almost forgot about it, but I never forgot that lyric "It ain't humid, but it sure is hot down in Mexico." Also, this one "I never shot nobody, don't even carry a gun. I ain't done nothing, just having fun."
Thanks, Biz.
Gone Shootin' and What's Next To The Moon (where that 3rd verse hits the groove) are often criticized as being weak tracks but I disagree; I think both of them (but especially WNTTM) are the very essense of rock and roll; driving beat, heavy guitars and lyrics that take you someplace. Consider all that, and this album can be argued as being better than HTH and just as good as BIB (and I'll take this one over BIB every single time).
AC/DC are the greatest rock band of all time. They have the "swing" of pure rock n roll. You can't get any heavier rock music without being metal. They are the pinnacle.
It's a jam fo sho....dont ya have a picture to put up with Bon Scott in it instead of Brian Johnson while your doing Bons songs??? Just askin, it's all kool either way....peace...keep on keepin on...
There were guitars 🎸 in this song???? Damn, I must have missed them!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Great reaction BizMan!!!!! Keep on keeping on!!!! So says Austin Tx!!!!!😎🤣🎸🎸🎸
An interviewer asked Keith Richard's of the rolling stones how it felt to be regarded as one the best guitarist, he said "I don't know, ask Malcolm Young"
Malcom is the man that holds the band together with his rhythm guitar and lets lil bro do the flashy things.
My favorite! Check out this live from the Apollo Theater, it’s so good!
That's on the next album
Greatest songs of all time on a simple drum set . Phil Rudd is a beast .
If this isn't their best song off of their best album, then I don't know what is.
Good argument for being their best song ever!
I always took an ativan after this song... made me wanna run thru walls... fun!!!
That riff and can i sit next to you girl, are 2 of there greatest..
Maybe my turntable was slow but this far too fast
I still prefer to say "poweridge".
don't forget High way to Hell, Bon's last album, it's awesome too!
This song crushes from start to finish, one of my favorites.glad to see you enjoying it.
Dictionary:Rock n' roll:Riff Raff
Like a bullet comin at you. The perfect description. In my opinion, the greatest rock song ever.
The best boogie blues band of all time
At their very height in those days!
Controlled kaos my man. Lol
Yup, AC/DC ALWAYS does that to me too!!!🤫😉😆🤘😎⚡🔥💯
Good to see you Americans luvin AC/DC, Gday from Tasmania Australia, now I’m 53 years young and been listening to these albums since I was 10 years old,, Oi!
Bon ..il dio....
the best band and the best song
You stopped it before the final note.....the closing boom! Should have checked the 'Live At The Apollo 1978' clip of Riff Raff.....an incendiary live performance!
Hi Bizmatic thanks for pronouncing power age correctly love all of you reactions
Riff raff live will blow your mind. It has a 6 minute long guitar solo. Hang on to your balls it will blow you away. FACT!!!¡
My memory might be messing with me but, as I remember it, a friend in school lent me 'If You Want Blood'. First track Riff Raff and that was me done for life so it will always be special. My Dad's record collection was Nat King Cole, Jim Reeves and some Elvis 78's (nothing wrong with any of that), but Jesus - how my life changed after hearing that.
First gig was Bristol UK, Brian's first gig with DC, and I've seen them at least once every tour since. It's utterly mad how music can grab you by the balls and never let go.
When Tommy Vance announced that Bon had died on the friday rock show, my teenage self was distraught to say the least. Credit to Brian - can't imagine anyone else even trying to fill the chasm that was left.
Rock on DC
This is the start of the first part of my workout-music... PowerAge :D Nothing beats this start... not even Highway to Hell... also the first 3 songs rock beyond anything....
I have to laugh whenever you've mentioned paying attention to the lyrics. I love Bon's vocals, but the lyrics are as deep as a layer of paint. It reminds me of a quote from Keith Richard: "Rock-n-roll shouldn't be analyzed, or even thought about deeply."
Somebody misled you brother 😊
Powerage is pronounced like Damage or Wreckage. You don't say Dam Age or Wreck Age...or Power Age either. 👍
Happy to see your´e getting the AC/DC-sickness! But you need to work more on those headmoves, man - they should be a lot wilder! And where is your imaginary guitar? :D :D :D
Check this out live, another gud live is baby please don't go live from sidney 1976
Great reaction as usual Biz! This is another one that was almost always played during concerts during the Bon years, but was retired very early in the Brian era. You're just getting warmed up in the AC/DC rabbit hole! After Powerage, there are only 13 more studio albums to go. And don't forget the 11 video albums, three live albums, two soundtrack albums, or the two box sets they have released over the years. Let's keep the party going!
Great reaction. Funny though that the video uploader chose a photo of AC/DC with Brian Jones when this is the original AC/DC with Bon Scott. C'Mon let's give some love to the best singer of AC/DC!
