Little Stevie Wright, formerly of The Easybeats passed away just before Xmas - great singer.

Gave us this classic:

And this solo classic from the mid 70s:

Stevie was suggested as a possible replacement for ACDC when Bon died, since Angus' brother George was in the Easybeats with Stevie, and there was a close connection with ACDC - but he went off the rails a bit in the 70s. But the above one-off performance from 1979 should he could have done a pretty good job replacing Bon. Shame it never happened.

I've only heard the first vid. And I didn't know that was Stevie Wright. R.I.P.

And yes, he could have been a great replacement for Bon. He's got that high screech yell.
