    Default AC DC - Funk Version

    I stumbled across this guy on Youtube that re-records some classic songs, saving only the vocal track and re-doing all of the instrumentation in completely different style. Most of these are very good and quite hilarious! He does a smooth-jazz version of a Metalica song, bossa-nova Iron Maiden and many others. My favorite of his is this one he did of AC/DC Back in Black done in a Funk style. I laughed so hard when I first saw it, but now I'm actually liking this version better than the original. Check it out!

    I love a great re-working of a well known song. This was well executed. To be honest, I think I prefer it this way.
    If she could still sing like she did int he 70s, this would be a great one for Betty (Mabry) Davis.
