Some more "rare" AC/DC, I am assuming

The other day someone (Brian to be specific) asked about ancient AC/DC recordings, I didn't have a
lot, just a BBC session that he may or may not have already had....but in that post I also mentioned my friend Alan, who is an AC/DC obsessive (Seen them 12 times) and he promised to share a couple of rarities with us.......this is his first contribution, and I know that at least I have not heard it....

The Marcus Hook Roll Band gave us the album "Tales of Old Granddad" in 1973......this is the Young brothers, Angus and Malcolm, of course later of AC/DC fame, also guitarist George Young (relationship, unsure), sax wailer Alex Young (ditto), bassist Freddie Smith, and drummer Ian Campbell........hey I NEVER said this was a GREAT album, but with the interest that has always existed with this band (AC/DC, I mean), any rarity submitted is almost as good as double coupons at Kroger-day.

Although there are only some slim fragments of what would become AC/DC songs later, one can certainly hear the roots of what was coming.......this isn't bad, it's nothing if not interesting, and I hope it is a new find for some of ya.......my buddy Alan will be TOTALLY pissed (I had to explain to him how to RAR/share, etc), if you hosers ignore it, so do me a fave and check this out.....hell, maybe it's a good one?......I found it to be listenable, at least, and, for what more can we ask?


Here it is.......for those about to rock.......FIRE!........I guess so.......

REALLY like to hear comments on this one....NEVER  a huge AC/DC fan, but certainly DID enjoy at least, their most obnoxious material..........this is the bare/raw bones of what would eventually sell millions of albums (gag) and begat stuff like "Highway to Hell" and "Hells Bells"........gosh don't you just love life sometimes?

AC/DC BBC Sessions 1976-79

I was NEVER a "huge" AC/DC fan, I did however enjoy them much more in the pre-death-of-Bon Scott era........Brian asked if I have any Bon-era boots, I thought I might, but I don't seem to find anything he doesn't already have, save MAYBE this... it's a good BBC Session, with music from 1976-79... frantic versions of some of their older stuff, I think it does draw the line between the two singers, they do miss out on my fave of the era "Riff Raff".... anyway, if Brian already has this, perhaps you don't, and maybe my friend Alan, who has seen these guys TWELVE times (!) might need this one too... I actually saw them once, maybe 1978 or so and no one can say they don't bring the noise live, but TWELVE TIMES? I don't think I've seen anybody FOUR times.... wow just a lotta times, I guess.... see whatcha think, more stuff later or tomorrow......

Comments? Not exactly the normal post for the Big Man.......again, to show ya that ANYTHING goes here, whatever YOU want I will try to find it for ya.......I'll check the web, Brian, and see if I can find some shows of that era......stay tuned!
