The thing about being a great frontman isn’t necessarily about having a perfect voice, it’s about having the voice perfectly fits the band and Bon’s voice just fit AC/DC. His stage presence, charisma and lyrical genius were also a huge part of what really made those first handful of albums so fantastic. No slight to Brian Johnson, who’s great in his own right, but Bon was just otherworldly!
You could say he's a... Sock and Roul Singer. 🎉 He has such a distinct sound to his voice. Especially like at 6:54 when you unpaused and it sounded like he was trying to force out a jobby
Brian Johnson is from Newcastle, which means technically, he's Scottish. Seeing Newcastle is originally in Scottish territory! But yes, BONNY SCOTT RULES! He definitely had that ability to make it seem effortless. It's an Australian thing to utilise your speaking voice while using an increased volume to sing. It's like, you speak your lyrics, but you're singing.
Northern english, huh? FYI: I'm northern bavarian, living near Hamburg. (We all know that Germany is a part of Bavaria, don't we?) When I was a teen, I had 2 singles of a band named Geordie: "Don't do that" and "Geordie's Lost his Liggie". Guess, who the singer was? And Bon Scott was a fan of that singer. That was, why the remaining members invitied him down under. The chemistry between them seemd to work. The rest is history.
Funny, You and Brian Johnson are both Scottish! Great song, love Bonn Scott's vocals! Who Made Who is also a killer song from Maximum Overdrive! Keep up the great work My Fine Scottish Lady! ❤❤❤
Ha, how did I know you like Bon Scott. Yeah, no question mark. Interesting isolated track. Now, as of how it is tracked ... I am really not sure, how much of the compression is due to the recording chain and how much he did just because you can sing f'cking loud against guitars if you have a natural maximizing due to cutting off your maximum volume with your vocal technique already, no matter how good the live engineer is (and no matter if he has a compressor at hand in his 70s rig). It sounds to me, as if he sings through a nice optical compressor, maybe a Teletronix La2a or similar. Maybe that's why the room came thru on occasion, lifted up by the compression. The La2a gives a nice sizzling distortion in the high end, if abused the right way (could also be the LA3, the bit cheaper and dirtier transistor sibling, that is a sleeper). I love the La2a on vocals. And so did e.g. Chris Cornell, right at tracking time. Not that Bon Scott really NEEDED additional high-end distortion. Whiskey does a good job there, too. And I don't normally read up on tracking chains, because there is always more than one way to do it, and if it sounds good, it sounds good. So don't anyone nail me on that, like, at all. He still has a lot of dynamics, because he lets his voice break up or down and does not care, if it sounds "pro". It sounds natural and I love that. It is hard rock and meant to be dirty. I understand that many don't like the more polished productions after him. Thanks for this one and have a great end of the week, my dear dudette!

Bon Scott was my first musical hero. Ride On is a fabulous song.

I have always thought of Canada as America's hat.

Bon & Young Brothers were from Scotland. Except the Young family moved to Australia
Brian Johnson is English, he's from Newcastle.
@@mattg.7832 Brian is from Durham. Sorry, My mistake. Bonn Is the Scott, no pun intended.
Bon Scott. My favourite Scot of all time (you're currently 3rd on my list 😉).

Love it! Thank you for turning down the volume, by the way. Not sure my car speakers could handle it.
You're welcome! I knew someone would be thankful 😄
Nice
