ACDC Touch Too Much ( Top Of The Pops UK TV Show 1980)
And now a bit of genuine rock history: AC, DCs last UK television appearance with Bon Scott on vocals. It seems surprising now that they were even invited on the show to promote this single, entire chunks of which have had to be edited out; typical AC, DC single entendres such as She liked it done medium rare were apparently not suitable for TOTP, which is a family show and will not tolerate such filth. Twelve days after this show was first broadcast the legendarily hard living Scott was no more; having passed out after a night of heavy drinking in London, he was found dead the following morning, acute alcohol poisoning being given as the cause of his demise. As a fitting (and probably accidental) tribute, this episode was shown as part of the BBC Four reruns 35 years to the day after Scotts passing.
