      Malcolm ALWAYS had a badass guitar tone. When I listen to AC/DC, more often than not I seem to find myself focusing more on Malcolm and that rock solid rhythm. Angus is good and he and Bon were always the life of the show, but Malcolm was the true driving force behind AC/DC. It was HIS band.

    • @cockroach5717
      @cockroach5717 3 роки тому +1

      @Bad Boys Boogie Yea no doubt it was Malcolm's idea to make a band, but he chose Angus for a reason. It was both Angus and Malcolm's child to raise. It's like Malcolm had a baby without a mother and chose Angus to be the fun uncle of it. That's what Angus is, the fun uncle, and Malcolm is the working father. He knew Angus could play lead like no one else, and could not have found a better lead player if he tried. AC/DC wouldn't be what it is without Angus at all. As you and me have seen, they have survived without Phil or Cliff, but would not ever be the same without Malcolm and Angus. It is both their band, not just Malcolm's or Angus. Stevie does a great job playing the rhythm guitar, but I doubt he could come up with a riff as good as Malcolm could. That just proves it ain't the same without Malcolm. Power up was just a bunch of riffs Malcolm and Angus worked on between Stiff Upper Lip and Black Ice. I doubt when they run out of those riffs in between those years, that they'll keep going or make anything half as good, unless Angus really watched Malcolm.. and kept how he made riffs in his memory.. In Malcolm's words, "Angus is a hot player".

    Malcom ran the band as he deferred to Angus allowing him to play lead guitar.

    Phil has an unmatched groove and feel. So simple, it is VERY hard to do right. I have drummed for 38 years, and trying to sound like Phil is harder than sounding like Peart or Bonham. His meter is always perfect.

      Rythym sections was strong with Phil, Malcom and Cliff on the groove. They sit in the pocket perfectly with each other.

    I challenge any player of any caliber to play 2:50 like this.
    Easiest riff to play, and takes a life-time to play properly
    Spend hundreds of life-times practicing, and you might get within a dozen light-years of Malcolm
    I tear up hearing his amazing playing. A legendary right hand

    Wahnsinn. Keine Absperrungen, keine Bodyguards und vor allem keine Handys wie sie die T....... bei Liveevents benutzen. Man hat sich einfach der geilen Musik hingegeben. Leute....wo sind diese Zeiten geblieben. Gott sei Dank habe ich sie noch erlebt mit Bier 🍻 und Zigaretten dazu😂😂😂. LG

    early ac/dc with bon scott has no equal, angus was a monster, the beauty was it was all about the music with them, crank up the marshalls and let it go, no make-up, posing, scarves, flowing wardrobes, glam... just the music, along with their punk attitude and energy. long live rock and roll, long live ac/dc.

    This is possibly the most exciting live rock performance I have ever seen.
    Angus chicken walks across the stage, Bon Scott shrieks into the mike with a pounding beat driving them all forwards in sweaty, shirtless tidal wave of sound.
    It doesn't get better than this

      Disagree. We knew. I saw them first in 1978 and can still remember the thrill of being deaf for a few days, the sight of Angus in Bon's shoulders and the unbelievable power of the rhythm. It’s stayed with me ever since.

    When I saw them open for Aerosmith at the Long Beach Arena for the Poweage tour, they completely stole the show! I had floor seats and got splashed by Angus's sweat when he was on a roadie's shoulders going through the audience. I was blown away! They weren't listed on the billing or any promotions, and when I asked everyone after the show who they were, no one knew. It was on the way home that I heard a commercial for Powerage on KMET and recognized the music. I told my girlfriend, "That's the kick ass band we just saw!" I immediately bought every import album and cassette available and turned my buddies on to them. What a great memory. It was 45 years ago, and I remember it like it was yesterday, with rocking energy like no other band since.
