He mentions seeing them in 1969 in Blaydon when they were first moving to boogie style. Apparently he was amazed at Rick saying the "F" word and that they would not be playing POMM.
Says hearing the start of Dustpipe to be the second most thrilling thing he had heard after Little Richard the first time.
Tis a great book....

And he mentions he saw them several times in 69-70 I believe. He must like them. Was asked years ago for a top 5 songs to drive cars, and Down Down was...Don't remember if he positioned it the first or the second.

A mate of mine read a AC DC book on Bon Scott called 'Highway To Hell : The Life & Times of AC DC Legend Bon Scott' many moons ago. It has a reference on Quo on that too, Bon seeing them in the 1970's Quo that is.

Incidentally, the Johnson & Knopfler's Music Legends TV series has been good stuff.

It has a reference on Quo on that too, Bon seeing them in the 1970's Quo that is. I remember reading that book. IIRC, Bon's group at the time, Fraternity, supported Quo in the UK, and Quo blew them away with their professionalism and volume. Apparently Fraternity left the gig with their tail between their legs and broke up shortly after their return to Australia. It might've been a lesson learnt by Bon for when he joined AC/DC. So I assume Quo impressed him.
