I met him in 2009 in Moncton NB Canada I was his police motorcycle escort leader. I met his wife and a young fellow I assumed was their son. I have since learned he has no children. The wife took us up to the family seating to watch his guitar solo. When we got him back to the airport I told him he was my guitar hero and that I also played. I wanted his autograph to go on my left inner forearm and so I asked him, as he was doing autographs for people. He seemed surprised and pleased that I was a huge fan. Today my wife bought me a 2015 Gibson SG for our wedding anniversary it sits beside my vintage Hagstrom Swede. I wish that somehow I could meet him again to get his autograph on the guitar. he was as down to earth and the most decent of people I have escorted and protected in my long career.

I met Chuck Berry at an outdoor concert at a 4-H fair. Shook his hand. He smiled and asked how I was. I really felt special. Like a million bucks! I was very young. But I met him. I didn't meet Angus but Bon Scott had Angus on his shoulders at a Coliseum concert and Bon walked up the ramp/stairs to the higher balcony where I was and Bon stopped and stood right next to my seat in the upper balcony and Angus played his guitar on top of Bons shoulders right there in front of me for about 2 minutes. It was really something. I had hitch hiked to the concert because there was no more room for me in the car with my friends. I walked most of the 32 miles but I made it. I was so tired. Then had to walk up to my seat in the higher balcony but then all of a sudden during the concert Bon walked up the ramp with Angus and stop right there next to my seat. And Angus was just moving his fingers playing riffs up and down the neck really giving a show and I really felt special. I love AC/DC. I then walked back home and nobody stopped this time, I had to walk the whole 32 miles back home and it started raining but all the way I kept thinking Angus and Bon were right there in front of me, right there like I could touch em if I reached out. I could hardly believe it, it was one of the best days of my life.

After watching this video I now understand why Angus isn't always, sometimes consider as one of the top 3 to 5 guitarist in the history of Rock and Roll. He is so humble, and so shy, and so reluctant to praise himself, or be incredibly crass and boisterous it's really a complete 180 than what you see on stage with this great performer putting on a great show and having fun and making sure the people are getting their money worth. I love to how he refer's to himself as ''a little guy'' or ''the little guy'' almost like he has to or wants to remind us he's not Jimi Hendrix or Eric Clapton, Chuck Berry or BB King etc. I think music history will be on the side of Angus Young though. 50-60 years from now everyone is going to be clamoring to be the next Angus in Rock music and every kind and all kinds of musicians and music scholars are going to be studying Angus and Malcom both with great intrigue!!!!

I was about 7 years old going to hockey with my friend at 6:40 in the morning. To wake up my friends dad turned up and blasted AC/DC. Thunderstruck was my first song of theirs I listened to. Great time. I’ll never forget and I still thank that dad for introducing me to AC/DC. 🤘🏻🎸

I notice he switched SG's between the first part of the interview to the second. He's playing his SG with the trapeze tailpiece and palm vibrato when he starts out, then all of a sudden, he's not. Not that any of this means shit, just an observation. I watch Angus very closely, as he's been right up there as one of my main influences since the mid '70's. Long live AC/DC, and thoughts and prayers to Malcolm.

I love Angus and I have been watching this video for years I’m still trying to figure out how to play guitar because of him. My parents cannot afford a teacher so I’m trying to do what he did even though he had Musicians around him he is still self taught. Hope to see you on the next tour Angus love you!!

If anyone here wants to try and get Angus' sound, here's what you need to do: take your SG, plug one end of the cord into the guitar and the other end straight into a Marshall. No effects. There you go!

Absolutely !! Ppl look at a 'Brian May'pedal, Steve Vai's rig, this & that in a never ending attempt to be human jukebox, never taking into account that the 'sound' comes from the fingers, the attack of the plectrum/pick/fingers, the timing, the miniscule timing combination between the hands and THAT like a person trying to move town to escape one's problems we take ourselves with us everywhere we go. Imitation may be the greatest form of flattery but I ain't here to flatter anyone, just play like me 'till I die !!

I don't know how many of you remember magazines like Guitar Player ripping on Angus back in the early 80s when guys like Randy Rhoads hit the scene. They used to drag him through the mud saying how he could only play a few notes while these shredders would be playing all sorts of scales and arpeggios. I used to get so pissed when they ripped on Angus who was my favorite guitar player, along with Page and Hendrix.

haha i had forgotten blow up your video. I just went and put it on. Good call. Funny that everyone knows thunderstuck but the riff from razors intro is just as good from a guitar players stand point. Bon was great. Died to young. However if there was ever a award for best way to bring a new lead singer after a tragic death award... it would go to AC/DC. Back in black is awesome. Just a strong opening shot. Way to bounce back.

My favourite rock style is progressive rock, but I always liked AC/DC; despite not being overly complicated, they have great tunes, great energy, a charismatic singer (both of them), idiosyncrasies and style variations that make it interesting. Metallica, on the other hand, always bored me to sleep. They can be as loud as they want, I just nod away. If I have to stay awake at all cost while listening to Metallica, I desperately start thinking about complex subjects like philosophy or women to have something interesting on my mind.
