I am not kidding about this. Seriously. This is the greatest thing in the history of recorded human things.

in the Paris concert video ("Let There Be Rock"), the interviewer questions Bon about his sexuality (wtf? in their own video!). He hems and haws, smiles coyly at the camera and leaves it at that. He also splits his britches trying to drop it like it's hot at one point. What a guy.
Why search for shreds when the real thing's available, Bon Scott's homage to Milton Berle notwithstanding?
And has anyone EVER done a bad version of BABY, PLEASE DON'T GO? My fave's Webb Wilder's (on Doo Dad, and at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQ59RFQgz7o) in addition to Van Morrison's (at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BDoV6hBNMY) and The Amboy Dukes' version (at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xPecXqIU1g).
Another fine version by Bill Wyman's Willy & the Poor Boys all-star ensemble (an MS benefit). This one features Chris Rea on vocals.

It's up there with the best.
