Most fans of AC/DC agree that Brian Johnson did some of his best singing back when he was the lead vocalist for a Newcastle band called Geordie, formed in 1972 with guitarist Vic Malcolm. Their second LP, 1974's Don't Be Fooled By The Name, was a solid slab of hard rock featuring songs like the rocking "Goin' Down" and "So What", but check out Johnson's vocals on "House Of The Rising Sun" if you want to know why Bon Scott and AC/DC were such early admirers of Johnson's singing. Bonus CD of the album included.

2012 release. Probably best remembered as lead singer Brian Johnson's band before AC/DC, the Newcastle-based hard rock band Geordie was actually led by guitarist Vic Malcolm, who did almost all of the song writing on the albums. Their 1973 debut, Hope You Like It, included hit singles "Don't Do That" and "All Because Of You", landing Geordie firmly on the map somewhere in the vicinity of bands like Slade. While Geordie may not have been as groundbreaking as AC/DC, Johnson was certainly off to a solid start in a band hailed at the time by fans and critics alike. Bonus CD of the album included.

For many fans Geordie is merely an insignificant footnote in the story of AC/DC, being singer Brian Johnson's first band. But without Geordie there would have been no Back In Black or For Those About To Rock?because it was with Geordie that Bon Scott first heard Johnson's singing. AC/DC aside, Geordie's 1976 Save The World was a hard rocking album in its own right, and songs like "Mama's Gonna Take You Home" and "She's A Teaser," held their own in territory occupied at the time by bands like Zeppelin and Slade.
