Scott Ian of Anthrax has put together his AC/DC Top 20 list and demonstrated a pretty good argument for favouring Bon over Brian.
Out of Scott’s 20 songs, 18 were Bon Scott songs. Scott is clearly influenced by Highway To Hell. Six of the 20 tracks were from that album, followed by ‘Powerage, ‘Let There Be Rock’, ‘Back and Black’ and ‘TNT’* and ‘Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap’.
(*In the USA, the bastardised version of ‘TNT’ and ‘High Voltage’ was shrunken into one release called ‘High Voltage’).
Scott Ian by the albums:
Highway To Hell 6
