I dunno, if you listen to Back In Black and Highway To Hell back-to-back, Brian Johnson could do a pretty good Bon Scott. But if you throw Welcome To The Jungle on immediately after those two, Axl Rose does pull off a very similar vocal sound. I could certainly buy him performing as the vocalist for AC/DC.
