Well said, hopkins.
I think AC/DC deserve a little of the credit for SMU ... that gloriously funky, deliriously crunchy guitar sound was so prevalent on Back in Black, a massively successful album released the year before, and although AC/DC's sound was an outgrowth of many Stones classics, I'll bet Keith and Mick were paying attention.

Even though SMU was recorded in 1977? That's funny.

Early reggae-style takes yes but not the version where everything suddenly gelled.

No. It's wafer thin to me. All style, no substance. At BEST, it sounds like The Stones.

Which was in... 1977.

Well I'll be damned, it sure was. Always thought it was just a reggae track until they started assembling Tattoo You in '81, but after some online sleuthing I've learned that you're absolutely right, there were indeed a couple of rocking versions recorded in the 70's, like this one.

I'm really surprised they shelved it.

That's a working mix from 1981

So it's '81 even though the clip title says '78?
Not doubting, just askin' ...

Start Me Up was nearly finished already in mid 78 (version II or III if you count Never Stop as version I) - two years before the release of Back In Black. By the way: I still believe Never Stop is from the Black And Blue sessions. It doesn't sound like 77/78 at all.

The secret is the interplay between Keith and Bill.

Start Me Up was a gift from the Rock Gods...that silly song was a practically a career saver for the band that propelled them through for the next 20 years...
