AC/DC - Bon Scott Interview - London - 1 November 1977
Please read this before commenting as comments are moderated and rubbish deleted. Countdown's Ian "Molly" Meldrum interviews his friend Bon Scott. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molly_Meldrum This is one of the very few interviews where someone made a conscious effort to interview Bon Scott before he got smashed and got him to answer some serious questions. You will see a link to another video at the end of this one, of Bon Scott in Hobart, Australia in the same year as this one. Take the time to watch it, and you can see why Meldrum is keen to keep this interview serious and on topic.
As has been pointed out previously, Scott and Meldrum have known each other for a long time, going back to the days of the Valentines in 1966-70. There is a link below to Meldrum speaking about Scott's death on Countdown.

If you are NOT from Australia, please note :
Rush are NOT known in Australia, not then and not now. Rush never released anything in Australia and have never had a song or album in the Australian charts, ever. Kiss were not a household name in Australia until 1979 with the release of the Dynasty album. "Rock n Roll All Night" made the top 20 in 1975, but we didn't really have much to do with them or see them on TV until 1979. Kiss did not tour Australia until 1980, at which time Meldrum and Countdown ran an entire Kiss episode of Countdown. Note : this interview is in 1977, not the current day. Take the above paragraph in to account if commenting.
Meldrum and the Australian television show Countdown were one of AC/DC's biggest backers in the 70's. Meldrum and Countdown made 2 videos for AC/DC, "Jailbreak" and "It's a Long Way To The Top" which helped to make AC/DC a household name in Australia many years before their worldwide success. If you own any of the AC/DC videos such as Family Jewells or Plug me In, you will also see AC/DC on Countdown performing "Baby Please Don't Go", "TNT", "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap", "Dog Eat Dog", as well as the 2 that Countdown made off set. Corporate boffins taped over almost all Countdown episodes from the 70's, so we are extremely lucky 2 individuals did their best behind the scenes to hide tapes, however many AC/DC performances were lost.
Meldrum and Countdown generated breakthrough Australian hits for international artists including ABBA, Meat Loaf, Blondie, Boz Scaggs, Cyndi Lauper, Madonna, and Michael Jackson before they got famous and some only got famous because of Countdown. Meldrum and Countdown were early pioneers of music videos, see the 1974-1980 section of this link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_video
