Title: BON SCOTT singing "back in black" ?
Post by: pch29 on Sun 09 Dec 2007 05:00:34
I have a version of "back in black" that seems to be sing by BON SCOTT.
Is it possible that he sings that some days/months before his death ?
Does BON sing in some songs of the future album BinB ?

I think you'll find that that version of Back In Black is not Bon Scott,
but actually Jessie James Dupree from Jackyl  ;)

Do you know from what year is this recording by Jessie James Dupree from Jackyl ?
Does Bon Scott participate to the preparation (sessions) of the recording of the Back in black album ?

I am informed by a pretty reliable authority that it is a hoax. Love to hear it though. Go on, rip it to MP3 :)

Tripper, if you paid that much for the vinyl. and I certainly am NOT saying that you didn't; and this thing is as rare as it seems to be; dont YOU think you need to back it up somehow?

Consensus on the Web seems to be that it's Joe Lynn Turner on vocals...

I have an MP3 of this ,, Definitely sounds like him.
The Album was so close to the time of his passing,, it's possible he did do a few takes, and they decided to get Brian Johnson to do it to help him 'blend in'.

the vocalist that actually sang it was not bon nor was it the Jackyl singer it was Joe Lynn Turner ex Rainbow Vocalist and i do have a copy of it and its hard to believe it was hin doin the vocals also there is another verion sung by Marc Storace from Krokus in his ac dc tribute band called dc talk cos if you have ever heard Krokus the singer sounds exactly like Bon Scott

Im not sure whether or not tripper has a recording of Bon singing "Back in Black", but in Clinton Walker's biography of Bon, there is more than a suggestion that Bon wrote all the lyrics for the album but the band's management managed to get hold of all his material and continued with the album and credit Brian Johnson with the lyrics.

Believe what you will, but the style of the lyrics have an unmistakable Bon Scott cheekiness to them that has never been repeated on any later album and leaves me with no doubt who penned the lyrics.

BTW isn't DC Talk a christian band?
