I'm sure you guys who are part of this site and know how to navigate Youtube have found these segments already and know most of these facts but if not then you may find them pretty cool.

Here's a couple so you can get a feel for the format:

From Ultimate ClassicRock Youtube Channel (Pink Floyd, Rush, AC/DC)


There's also other channels for Metal and Modern Rock:

From Youtube Channel Loudwire:

From "You Think You Know Metal?" (Iron Maiden, Metallica, System Of A Down)


From Youtube Channel Diffuser:

From "You Think You Know Rock?" (Nirvana, Soundgarden, Radiohead)

Bon didn't write anything on Back in Black. He did have ideas down before he died but the band scrapped them for Brian's once he joined.
And not just some official line but Angus himself has said it. He would know since its his and Mal's band.

So says the official line. We may never know. Anyway, there are some cool facts there. I like that they mentioned Jason Everman in the Nirvana bit. That guy is quite a character. In addition to Nirvana, he was of course in Ministry and perhaps my favorite newer metal band Mindfunk before joining the Special Forces to become a decorated war hero then a college grad. Most of the facts we as long standing fans probably already heard but it is a neat concept given how short and choked full of information it is.

Good find Soot.

Thanks for the links Soots! Working my way through them over the weekend. I'll try not to binge on all of them at once, lol.

I'm glad I didn't retread too much territory on this one and it was something that you guys could at least be entertained with even if it treaded territory you've already studied up on. I had the same experience with the Smashing Pumpkin one and the groups that came out in the 90's but their was a fresh bit or two in there. :)
