AC/DC: Legendary 1981 Tokyo concert is available on YouTube.

Historical footage of the band shows the energy in Brian Johnson's debut as vocalist

AC/DC fans certainly received a great Christmas present this year. The HighVoltageRockNRoll shared the complete fan-filmed video of the band's classic performance at the Nippon Seinenkan in Tokyo, Japan, on February 5, 1981.

Brian Johnson 's debut as AC/DC's vocalist, replacing Bon Scott after his tragic death in 1980. At the time, Johnson wasn't yet wearing the iconic beret that would become his trademark, but Angus Young took to the stage wearing part of his emblematic school uniform. The band's irreverent style remained present.

AC/DC themselves had already released videos of this same show in 2020. “What You Do For Money Honey” and “You Shook Me All Night Long” were chosen to gift fans as part of the celebration of the 40th anniversary of the album Back in Black .
