Bon Scott is up there with the likes of Elvis.

Spent most of my life growing up in Ripley (Derbyshire) but can't think of any famous bands from that area... however, two lads I went to School with are in a band called Eskimo Fires so i'll give them a mention as they're pretty good and they're still both in Ripley.
