Bon Scott was once asked if he was AC or DC. 'Neither,' he grinned,
'I'm the lightning flash in the middle.' And that's how he lived
his life. No one had the same skill with lyrics as Bon, who called
his words 'toilet poetry', his 'dirty ditties'. He could also
vividly depict life on the road, best heard in the AC/DC classics
'Long Way to the Top' and 'Highway to Hell'. When Bon appeared on
Countdown in March 1975, the impression he left was indelible. The
ugliest schoolgirl to ever grace the small screen, Bon was a mess
of tattoos and pigtails, wearing an awkwardly short skirt, all the
while puffing on a ciggie. His bandmates, not just the audience,
were in hysterics. The video quickly became part of Oz rock
folklore. Bon was always the joker in the AC/DC pack. He'd happily
pose for a photograph with a joint dangling from his lips or be
interviewed in cut-off shorts with a banana provocatively stuffed
into his waistband. Anything to elicit a laugh. The off-stage
stories surrounding Bon are legendary. After spending a lively
couple of days with Bon, Ol' 55 singer Jim Manzie said, 'My
rock-and-roll education was pretty much complete.' Bad Boy Boogie
is the first biography to focus on Bon's remarkable gifts as a
lyricist, frontman and rascal. In short, the real Bon Scott.
