    @Tim I've been listening to this AC/DC song a lot recently. Angus starting the song with an extended guitar solo.

    Always nice when a band loses a singer but can continue where they left off. This track is a banger

    Yeah, I saw their new singer on a clip from Download last year. He's exactly the same as Weiland.

    Looking at that video though, the DeLeo brothers have swapped roles. Dean used to the semi-cool one whilst Robert looked like that bloke out of Everybody Loves Raymond. Robert seems to have slipped gracefully into middle age, whilst Dean looks like a fat old man trying to be cool.

    A few of my mates said I looked like Robert while on stage playing bass.....I always get those two confused. Phew......if I ever get back on there I'll keep the hair short and the shades on.

    It can't be denied they have a unique sound and have played a part in some fucken cool rock tunes though.

    @MN5 The new singer is one of those times though when they have done their absolute best to go like-for-like and it actually works.

    Normally new singers stamp their own style on it, but this bloke hasn't bothered at all.

    Absolutely. No massive Bon Scott/Brian Johnson or Michael MacDonald/the guy who sang for the Doobs after Michael MacDonald switch here.

    He's nailing it and they're doing their thing too. It sounds awesome.

    I assume Dean is the one that looks like the Rita Farr character in Doom Patrol, at a moment when she's struggling to keep her face together?

    As I mentioned Gary Numan in the three degrees thread, here he is in a remote control chair.

    From the classic punk movie Urgh! A Music War, which you should really all watch ASAP.

    @JC Wow. That took me back. So I of course found this:

    My very first album that I bought myself was Gary. Was really young so must have saved up pocket money - which now makes me feel very old.

    Kiwi tradition to "bring a plate".

    That expression still makes me laugh when foreigners (usually Brits) take it at face value and just show up with a plate, but I Lee Grant.

    Proof of a producer. A decent song, but filler really. Up the drums snd bass and it’s a different ball game.

    The rare moments of Cornell and guitar only show the blandness of this song. But the band on full song it’s excellent.

    Just a good banger to sing to in the car with the kids. Quite apt for 2020 too

    Damn, I love (loved?) that tune, but I wish I'd never seen that video. From the Oompa Loompa chick to the almost-asleep bloke up 3rd, its a horrible watch. Only the 2nd dude gives it some life !

    I hear all of that. Sometimes it’s best not to picture who’s behind the music.

    Do you know who that 2nd bloke was? He was great. Such great tone.

    Wikipedia tells me they were a bunch of five siblings, a bit of a headline for Motown briefly until the Jackson five came along.

    I love discovering gems like this track.

    Was it Boyz in the Hood where this song got airtime? Or have I got that mixed up?

    Guardians of the Galaxy II ?

    Outstanding voice, one of the best rock vocalists of his generation. But despite that I really don't like his slow stuff much if at all.....the version of "Patience" he did is even more dreary than the original.

    I reckon THIS is where he really shines

    and this.....

    oh and this......

    Audioslave were definitely decent but not a patch on any of this I didn't think.
