Take note that this is not the version people have copied straight out of those stupid AMSCO books. This is how the song is actually played. In the key of A, but to adjust to the bagpipes, the boys tuned up half a step. Bagpipe Solo; I have arranged this the way the song was often played live. Bon Scott took a long time to warm up the bagpipes, and gave up using them during the live shows, Angus adjusted by preforming the bagpipe solo with the guitar instead. If you are playing along with the tune, just ignore bars 50 to 65. And when you get to the solo, ignore bars 67, 69, 71 etc... including the starter note at the end of bar 66 and so on. In there place, just see the rythym that Malcolm is playing, and play that. That is whats on the recorded version, but I have, as I said, added a little bit to it, the way AC/DC preformed the solos during a lot of live perfromaces.
