I've always thought The Sensational Alex Harvey Band are kind of like the AC/DC for people who want something a little more diverse than AC/DC.
They come from the same sort of roots as AC/DC, Scottish, working class, pub band R&B influenced but SAHB throw in Glam Rock, Soul, English Music Hall, theatrics, and a whole bunch of other stuff too.
In fact I would say Alex Harvey's singing voice sounds practically identical to Bon Scott but Alex Harvey came first by about a decade.
