I think its extremely harsh to claim that Brian Johnson has nothing to contribute to AC/DC or that he doesnt suit them. Most bands would fold when they lose their singer or make one or two records with a new singer before calling it a day and I respect AC/DC for carrying on and achieving so much success with it. To have your first album with a new singer be Back In Black is a huge achievement.

How AC/DC managed to find someone so perfect to front the band after Bon died is beyond me BUT of course Bon Scott was the better singer and the better front man. AC/DC made better music with Bon Scott than they have without him.
