Bon Scott, the iconic frontman of AC/DC, is remembered not just for his electrifying performances but also for his golden-hearted charm. Fifa Riccobono, the former CEO of AC/DC’s Australian record label Albert Music, shared her memories of Scott during his early days with the band.

Riccobono recalls the first time she saw Bon perform at Sydney’s Rockdale Masonic Hall. Despite his unconventional appearance and a missing tooth, Scott’s charisma captivated the audience. She initially had doubts, but as the performance unfolded, it became clear that he had an undeniable presence that could not be taught.

After the show, Riccobono was pleasantly surprised by Bon’s warm personality. Their friendship blossomed, revealing a man who, despite his wild reputation, was deeply thoughtful and loyal to those around him. She remembers how Bon would often surprise her with flowers after disagreements, showcasing his caring nature.

In the days leading up to his untimely passing, Bon was filled with excitement about new music and the future of AC/DC. His legacy lives on, not only through his unforgettable music but also through the memories of those who knew him best.
