HistoryeditBackground and nameeditBrothers Malcolm, Angus, and George Young were born in Glasgow, Scotland, and moved to Sydney with most of their family in 1. George was the first to learn to play the guitar. He became a member of The Easybeats, one of Australias most successful bands of the 1. In 1. 96. 6, they became the first local rock act to have an international hit, with the song Friday on My Mind. Malcolm followed in Georges footsteps by playing with a Newcastle, New South Wales, band called the Velvet Underground not to be confused with the New York based Velvet Underground. Their older brother Alex Young chose to remain in Britain to pursue musical interests. In 1. 96. 7, Alexander formed and played bass in the London based band Grapefruitinitially called The Grapefruitwith three former members of Tony Rivers and the Castaways, John Perry, Geoff Swettenham, and Pete Swettenham. The bands logo was designed in 1. Gerard Huerta. It first appeared on the international version of Let There Be Rock. Malcolm and Angus Young developed the idea for the bands name after their sister, Margaret Young, saw the initials ACDC on a sewing machine. ACDC is an abbreviation meaning alternating currentdirect current electricity. The brothers felt that this name symbolised the bands raw energy, power driven performances of their music. ACDC is pronounced one letter at a time, though the band are colloquially known as Acca Dacca in Australia. The ACDC band name is stylised with a high voltage sign separating the AC and DC and has been used on all studio albums, with the exception of the international version of Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap. Early yearseditIn November 1. Malcolm and Angus Young formed ACDC and recruited bassist Larry Van Kriedt, vocalist Dave Evans, and Colin Burgess, ex Masters Apprentices drummer. Pushing hard for the bands success were Australias legendary roadie Ray Arnold and his partner Alan Kissack. Gene Pierson booked the band to play at Bondi Lifesaver on New Years Eve, 1. By this time, Angus Young had adopted his characteristic school uniform stage outfit. The idea was his sister Margarets. Angus had tried other costumes Spider Man, Zorro, a gorilla, and a parody of Superman, named Super Ang. In its early days, most members of the band dressed in some form of glam or satin outfit. On stage, Evans was occasionally replaced by the bands first manager, Dennis Laughlin, who was the original lead singer with Sherbet prior to Daryl Braithwaite. Evans did not get along with Laughlin, which also contributed to the bands ill feeling toward Evans. By the middle of 1. Lou Reed. Some time in 1. Michael Chugg, veteran Melbourne promoter Michael Browning booked the band to play at his club the Hard Rock. Browning had previously managed Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs, unsuccessfully trying to break them into the UK market. He did not like their glam rock image and felt that Evans was the wrong singer for the band, but was impressed by the Young brothers guitar playing. Shortly afterwards, he received a call from the band Laughlin had quit as manager, and they were stuck in Adelaide with no money. Browning agreed to bail them out and booked them for another gig at the Hard Rock. Following the gig, they agreed to take him on as their new manager, with the co operation of their older brother George and Harry Vanda. The Young brothers decided to abandon the glam rock image which had already been adopted by Melbourne band The Skyhooks and pursue a harder blues rock sound. To this end they agreed that Evans was not a suitable frontman for the group. Around this time, they also moved their base to Melbourne, where they frequently played at the Hard Rock. Bon Scott era 1. Beginnings 1. In September 1. 97. Ronald Belford Bon Scott, an experienced vocalist and friend of George Young, replaced Dave Evans3. Vince Lovegrove recommended him to George Young. Like the Young brothers, Scott was born in Scotland and emigrated to Australia in his childhood.
