Cool to see that even a tiny snippet exists of this performance and it's in Colour, I was thinking it may have been in Black and White. I think that also a lot of people assumed that the very early Countdown performances were destroyed or taped over but recently with the closure of the old Gore Hill studio complex in Sydney, many of these tapes are being discovered. I think that's where the ABC got the Countdown promo with Bon saying "You're watching Countdown, Across Australia." Hopefully one day the full performance surfaces. Thanks for sharing!

@ Fred- nice Youtube clip and thanks, even if it is a short piece. It is fun to pause and play this where you can see Bon in still frame shots. Hopefully someday the full video will surface :) @ Jesse, thanks for posting this one ;)

Hello, I have it from a guy from Australia who is in contact with ABC people, he also has this 2 seconds only and is pretty sure the full version exist. There were about 10 ACDC performances on countdown between 1974 and early 1976
