    I think Touch Too Much is an extremely underrated song, one of the best sounding of the Bon Scott era by far.
  • @MetalJesusRocks
    Great list…but it needed one more AC/DC masterpiece: Whole Lotta Rosie. 🤘
  • @KreyZ8
    Gone Shootin’ is still my favorite riff from the Bon Scott days. Always appreciate your views and positive outlook on music! Much love to you Rick!
  • Down Payment Blues and Overdose..in my opinion both riffs are extremely catchy and powerful.
  • @JMK571
    Two of my favorite AC/DC songs to play are "Girls Got Rhythm" and "Whole Lotta Rosie". They both have great riffs!
  • @MusicisWin
    You gotta DIME it for this one! Honorable mentions: Beating Around the Bush, Walk All Over You, and Rock and Roll Ain't Noise Pollution
  • @user-zh9vs4jq2u
    My favorite song is Night Prowler, for the intensity of the mood, the lyrics and Bon Scott's vocal performance, particularly on the last sentence.
  • @67Pepper
    "Hells Bells" my #1 favorite because no concert I've been to has beaten the 1980 AC/DC show I was at in Oakland CA when they opened the show with that riff, Brian swinging on the rope ringing the bell, unbelievable energy!
  • I still think thunderstruck should have been here. I think it’s their most iconic riff. Not their best song overall, but the riff is iconic.
  • @joeyjams964
    Maybe not the best, but "It's A Long Way to the Top" is simple and iconic and pretty fun to play.
  • “Overdose” is like the quintessential Malcolm and Angus song. It’s just a repeated chord sequence with room for solos. And the rest of the song is just a groove. If you can get people to understand why that song works, it’s like the gateway to figuring out why AC/DC is so enduringly popular. “Gimme a Bullet” and “Gone Shootin’” are both gems. From the Brian era, “Sink the Pink” and “Meltdown” are both great riffs that stick in your head even more than the more well known tracks from those records.
  • Down Payment Blues is a killer track from Powerage which is so often overlooked.
  • @PatrickJWenzel
    “Ride On” deserves a big mention. Quite a few comments suggesting it here. It’s my #1
  • @UKSportsFan
    Back in Black is such an outstanding record that you could almost do a "Top AC/DC Riffs" video of that album only!!! One of (and maybe THE) most incredible rock albums of all-time!
  • @user-nd9vv6wx2f
    Live wire is just the best tune! The High Voltage production is as close to live as you'll ever get and that part on Live Wire with the sustained single note is just......!!!! Heard it first when I was about 7, I'm now 48 and it still works. Nothing short of musical genius! The whole album....!
  • @davidhood5975
    Shot down in flames is my favourite to play. Also: Touch too much If you want blood In fact the whole of the Highway to Hell album is awesome. RIP Bon Scott
  • I will always love the main riff of "Let There Be Rock" a song that never gets enough love & the one song where Angus goes absolutely nuts.
  • @raytull3922
    Without a doubt, "Have A Drink On Me" is one of their most creative riffs.
  • NICE WORK ON ALL OF YOUR INSTRUMENTS !!!! YOU ARE FOR SURE ONE OF MY FAVORITE MUSICIANS !!!! YOUR SPEACH IS PERFECT !!!! YOU HAVE EXCELLENT MUSICIANS PLAYING WITH YOU !!!!
  • Whenever I play AC/DC on guitar, I find myself having the most fun playing Ballbreaker, especially the Plaza de Toros version because the energy that bounces off the walls for that show is electrifying
