RIP Malcolm Young - the man behind the riffs
 
https://www.theguardian.com/music/20...-acdc-obituary

The “driving force” behind rock band AC/DC, Malcolm Young, has died, aged 64.

Young devised many of the band’s best-known guitar riffs, marking out tracks such as Back in Black, Highway to Hell and You Shook Me All Night Long and establishing them as one of the biggest rock acts of all time.

Three years ago the band announced that Young needed to step down to receive treatment for dementia. Shortly afterwards he retired permanently, to be replaced by one of his nephews, Stevie, for the band’s most recent tour.

From their first release in 1975, High Voltage, two years after the formation of the band, up until their final album, Rock or Bust, Young and his younger brother, Angus, were credited as co-writers on all AC/DC tracks.

Have a cousin who is a massive fan and has traveled around the world to see them. After a show in Vegas he started hanging out with them.

Legends never die. It was a privilege to see him play live.
