You think Bon Scott is more famous than Angus? I would think Angus is definitely more famous.
Also, AC/DC hasn’t had that many members in longer than Bon, aside from Brian and the other people who were in the band when Bon died. Chris Slade had two stints as the drummer. The mid-80s drummer Simon Wright vs. Bon comes down to months, so I’m not going to try and figure it out.
Stevie Young took over from Malcolm, he’s been in a while now.
With Skynyrd it looks like they existed for a long time without recording, I think either way they’re over 10 bunt under 15.
