Geordie-Bon Scott-Dave Evans CD releases

October 24, 1999

Record labels keep re-releasing old material from AC/DC members. A new CD featuring Brian Johnson with Geordie was released in the UK in May, entitled "Can You Do It?" (Delta Music CD6190), it is identical to the "Very Bet Of" CD published in 96, with 2 extra tracks and new artwork.

Dave Evans' first solo album "Dave Evans & Thunder Down Under" (originally released in Australia only in 1986, very hard to find today), reissued on the Ecstasy/BMG label (ESCD0001) from Germany has been available since April, but is quite hard to locate, although a few web site record stores carry it [It can also be purchased through the label's site at http://www.ecstasyrecords.com.au] It includes new artwork with a few early AC/DC pictures inside.

Finally, See For Miles has issued this month in England yet another Bon Scott CD, "Bon Scott With The Spektors And The Valentines" (SEECD 704), including all known material of his first band The Spektors (4 tracks recorded in 1965 for a TV show), with a yet unreleased track, "It Ain't Necessarily So" with Bon on Drums. Bon only sings on one track, "Gloria." Also included are 9 Valentines tracks (previously available on other releases), a Vince Lovegrove interview (founder of the Valentines), and various pictures. By the way, the picture on the front cover is not of Bon Scott, but of Valentines member Ted Ward... Good one guys!
