The key to his talent was he never over-played his part. He unselfishly sacrificed the spotlight and fame for the good of the song and the band.

If someone remastered all the albums and had it only Malcolm Young isolated I'd buy them all. AC/DC are legends Malcolm's sound and attack: like a Heavy Locomotive Freightrain. Love how he only used the same guitar for all of those years. No flashy gimmicks, no extra BS, no makeup, just a simple humble working man who loves playing Rock n Roll. Same for the rest. Have to pay respects to Malcolm RIP

Great suggestion!! I've been trying to separate the sounds, watching their fretwork, to see who plays what, for awhile, and just found this channel a few days ago, like a gift from the universe, lol.. The band has become a real revelation to me at this late stage and they've been a standard fixture of my entire adult life , came of age, got my driver's license, with Hwy to Hell cassette in the car stereo, learning life... I love em more than I ever could imagine,, now, after learning about them as PEOPLE and how they came about, esp with Bon Scott.. I never knew he smiled so much, with the twinkle in his eye, clearly loving what he did.. landing with this group after working in the industry for years, was perfect, and iconic...and the young brothers, Angus was always fascinating, yet I had no idea they'd been the source that made this huge force so naturally, so real, completely off the rails, solid, so funny, humble, truly badass.. lol..yeah, I love em. 🧡 I hope he takes your suggestion, thanks!!
