A biography of AC/DC singer Bon Scott who died in London in 1980. He was arguably one of the last wild men of rock, a working class hero who, through songs like "Jailbreak", "Long Way To The Top", and "Highway to Hell", embodied the tearaway spirit. Spanning nearly three decades, Scott's career is virtually emblematic of the very emergence of Australian music, from the pin-up idol days of the 1960s, through the hippie daze of the early 1970s, to the rock of AC/DC.

A classic of rock writing, this is the definitive accounts of AC/DC's rise to fame, when the ribald lyrics and charismatic stage presence of singer Bon Scott, along with the formidable guitar work of brothers Angus and Malcolm Young, defined a new and highly influential brand of rock'n'roll. Drawing on many first-person interviews and featuring a gallery of rare photos, Walker traces AC/DC's career through the life of their original frontman, from the Scottish roots he shared with the Youngs right up to his shocking death in 1980.
Clinton Walker is the author of several books and documentaries on Australian music. His other books include "Inner City Sound" and "Stranded: The Secret History of Australian Independent Music." His latest project is a book and film, "Buried Country: The Story of Aboriginal Country Music" (2000).
