      Another one gone way too soon, but not forgotten.
      Absolute. Legend.
      Best rhythm guitarist ever, bar none. We won't see his like again.They certainly broke the mould when they made him.
      I must say I'm not surprised - I've been waiting for this announcement for about a year now, as once dementia takes hold, downward progression seems quite rapid.
      2017 what a shitty year. Roll on 2018.

      I'm gonna make tomorrow an official AC/DC day, listen to all their albums, celebrate their legacy and toast Malcolm, George and Bon.

      I wanna say rest easy - but shit - Raise some hell up there for us Malcolm - For those about to Rock - WE SALUTE YOU!!

            I've only seen AC/DC twice in 1991 and again in 2010 but at least it was with Brian, Malcolm and Phil (once) so I am happy to remember that band. With only Angus left of the core band now, AC/DC are as good as retired.

              The opening song at the 1991 concert I saw at Mt Smart.

                I've seen them 6 times - twice on their Rock or Bust tour, and the last date in England with Axl.
                The first 4 were with Malcolm. (And 4 with Phil) Bloody glad and privileged to have seen them too. I always loved how tight the rhythm was between Malcolm and Cliff, just gave Angus free rein to do what he does best.

                  Some of the best examples of the downright dirty and febrile Malcolm Young-inspired rhythms here;

                    I was at the one at athletic park in the early 90s , the behaviour of the boganic horde that night meant it was one of the last concerts ever held there.

                    Poor old Angus has lost two of his brothers recently.

                      He played simple but he played well. He also wrote or co wrote some of rocks biggest ever anthems.

                      RIP indeed.

                        I seen 'em four times but the last of those would have been in the late 80s. Sometime that decade I remember a tour they opened first number with something like twenty Angus clones on stage, I was drunk as hell.

                          Elitist snob sophisticated arts 'n culture mag The New Yorker weighs in, and it's pretty good. Did you know Keith Richards' fave ACDC album is Powerage? Neither did I - and I learned that in the first paragraph.

                          The guitarist, who died yesterday, at the age of sixty-four, was the soul of the seminal rock band, its leader on and off the stage.

                            I saw this link on a music forum. Photos from last week's funeral. Brian Johnson looks really emotional.
