Malcolm Young RIP

Today we lost one of the original members of AC/DC, Malcolm Young. Although I never really followed them since Bon Scott passed in 1980 they still prevailed. On a personal side, Brian Johnson is one of the nicest most modest guys in the business, I just wasn't a fan of his sound. Malcolm's health wasn't all that great the past few years.
They had one hell of a sound back in the 70's that has remained practically timeless.

He was sick the last couple of years or more. Sadly, these rock guys are on a path to next place.

I have enjoyed their sound and its simplicity for years. If I'm not mistaken Back n Black is the second most sold album...behind MJ's Thriller.

RIP brother, 64 is not old. He lived a hard life style i would imagine, but had a great career and a great following.

Vale Malcolm.

I haven't missed an AC-DC concert in Adelaide in the last 36 years. When they played here in November 2015, they were still as powerful and awe-inspiring as the first time I saw them on the Back in Black Tour in February 1981. I'll never forget the concert started with a big **** bell gonging out the beginning of Hells Bells.
One of my all time favorite cruise tunes.

Memories for a lifetime, thanks Malcolm and boys.
