I always loved Malcolm because he was the silent genius behind AC/DC. He never demanded the spotlight but his signature gyration always made him stand out in his own way. I miss that guy.
Me too, I also loved Mal. There were so many things I loved about AC/DC. The Young Boys were mega stars, even surpassing Jagger and Richard's. Nevertheless, they never lost that "hey, we're your buddies from next door attitude."
I got to see AC/DC three times. I can vividly remember Malcolm standing in one place jamming out while his brother Angus was all over the place. R.I.P. Malcolm you gave us badass music and memories.
I lost a grandfather to Alzheimers and my dad has been in the early stages of dementia for about 20 years. So Malcolm's death hit me hard. I also met the band a couple of times and he a very sweet guy. What a tremendous loss.
I touched Malcoln's shoe once when i was up by the stage in 1979 in Dayton Ohio. He smiled and said hi to me. I loved him and them and it broke my soul when he died
He was the leader of the band he booked all of there shows and produced every ACDC album with George Young! There my favorite rock band. I've seen them twice in concert! There amazing live! ACDC Forever!
I've been a hardcore AC/DC fan since I was 11 years old (now 46) From going to the first show Monsters of Rock (Gentofte '91) Dressed in my homemade (mom-made) schoolboy uniform. To the point of having a huge tattoo of their logo on my underarm. AC/DC has been in my life for so long and mean the world to me. The loss of Malcolm was hard, even more so as he died on my birthday. So needless to say, that day is not so happy for me anymore. Thank you so much for it all Malcolm and especially for "Down Payment Blues" 😢
This band is the epitome of perseverance. Since Bon's passing and all that has transpired since, they remain a testimony to rock n'roll. They have won the battles. God bless AC/DC with devil horns! Hell yeah!!
I hear ya bro. The first vinyl lp I bought was "Some Girls", the first 8-track I bought was "Highway to Hell", and the first cassette I bought was " Back in Black ".
My mom had dementia when she died. The sad part was the downward slide of memory. Sometimes she was there enough to know she could not remember. So sad. Just talked about 30 years earlier and she could relate.
I met him once way back in the late 80's. He was a real nice guy, down to earth, friendly, kinda quiet (away from his cronies, I guess). Just a cool guy hangin out. Those are the ones that are missed.
The moral of the story is no matter the hardships AC/DC has had to face they're still here and are still kicking ass and as a life long AC/DC fan I'm glad and couldn't be happier. Because, a music world without the greatest rock band in rock history AC/DC is a sad music world.
@You are correct But drinking a lot can absolutely lead to Dementia. A very quick google search will show that. Also have witnessed it first hand and heard a doctor's words stating that exact fact. What are you saying?
Without the Easybeats, there would never have been The Beast, Malcolm's favorite guitar. The instrument was given to Malcolm by Harry Vanda, George Young's bandmate and co-producer. It was originally finished in red (briefly seen in this video), but Malcolm never left the guitar alone and was always modifying it. The guitar is a Gretsch Jet Firebird, and Gretsch made (and may still make) a Malcolm Young Signature Edition. It features the same bare wood finish, and was the first guitar Gretsch made without paint or stain. This guitar, along with Lemmy's personal Rickenbacker 4004LK, is my favorite instrument.
@Sasha Taylor Interesting. I've read multiple sources, including on Gretsch's own site (detailing the Malcolm Young Signature Jet Firebird) that they had never released a natural wood finish prior to the MY Signature. I'll have to look at some Easybeats vids to see though. Whatever the color was, that was a damn fine guitar stock or when Malcolm made it his own. Thanks for sharing!
@Sasha Taylor That is not correct. The Beast and many Gretsch guitars at the time had a colored laminate covering glued to the top very similar to what they used on their drums. The Beast’s started peeling off, and Malcolm took it off and cleaned the glue residue off. It started life with it’s red laminate finish. The first run of the Malcolm Young model had a red painted option.
I think the close relationship they had was great. Makes me feel good to see that it really isn't that hard either! I say that because I grew up watching my brothers do nothing but fight. There's not even any family pictures of us that exist past our teens. That was the one thing that broke my dad's heart. Which is why I was closer to him than any. If it werent for him exposing me to music. I wouldn't have became a musician. I'm 51 and still going.
He lived with his mother in Balmain for his disease. I was working at my cousin's restaurant in Balmain and I was the delivery driver where I drove past endless times wishing to go there. The day came and I was not disappointed, he met me at the door and I couldn't cry because of meeting the legend. We didn't speak as his mother quickly led him away though I have met the legend and that's good enough.
Anybody who has experienced the reality of dementia knows exactly what the last months of dementia is like and it is not how you want to remember a loved one
Such a young age to die from it that probably means he probably had it even younger.I saw my grandmother get it and die and I took care of my father until it was to much an he went into a home.He was 78 years old and died of Corona virus in July it's hard to say this but it's good he died.His biggest fear was living in a nursing home and that happened for 2 years.He told me throughout my life that was his fear.
You have been through a lot. You're a good human, its challenging to take care of loved ones, but dementia is a whole different level. I worked in an Alzheimer care facility and it was the hardest job I ever did. I'm sorry about losing your dad and I understand. We just want the people we love to be happy. I feel peaceful knowing my parents are together and happy now but I miss them.
I never knew Malcolm had lung cancer. I never really paid much attention, either out of my own ignorance or bad seats at concerts that I was fortunate enough to get to go to and that I will never forget, but I don't know if Malcolm was like Eddie Van Halen and always had a cigarette lit.
Mal's rhythm was a machine, the backbone of every song, his guitar riffs are instantly recognized within seconds by all those around the globe. A true ROCK GOD. still loved and truly missed by the millions of souls his tunes lye within. R I P dearest Malcolm R I P
Malcolm Young and Angus Young we're to good brothers that understood each other and like Angus Young said if it wasn't for his brother they wouldn't be no AC DC and if there was no AC DC to me it would be very boring every year I would go to the carnival when I was a kid and what did you hear when you were out there obvious it had to AC DC it was that music that made you feel like you were having a good time at the carnival and they will always be playing ACDC music at the carnival and that is how cool AC DC is
My dad has advanced dementia. My mom took care of him for the first 4 years of his condition until she passed away from cancer in June of 2018. My dad is in a care facility now, he can no longer walk or speak. It’s so hard for me. its like I’ve become an orphan too soon.
I'm so sorry hearing about your Dad's condition, and the passing of your Mom. Hang on to all of the happy memories you have with both of them, and it will help you always think of them in a positive way. Just know that myself and others are thinking of you, and wishing you strength through this rough tme.
You know you've pretty much hit the end of the road when most of the band is having these kind of issues...it's not an insult, it's just reality & mortality hitting the equilibrium point.
I agree with you. I saw AC/DC 9 times and the rhythm section is my favourite to watch during the concert. When the three of them Mal, Cliff and Phil are locked in the pocket there is nothing better for the ears than that.
Chris Slade was an awesome drummer. I sawthe band before Axl Rose replaced Brian Johnson. Angus Young is the most awesome guitarist of all time. And is was nice that he was a caring brother.
When Bon died, AC/DC was really in stride. Malcom and Angus had long been creating riffs, of pure human, instict. That's rock n roll. Playing music that touches something primal in our species. The Stones, have done so time and time again. I get the impression Keef is in tune with what Malcom and Angus had tapped into. Mick, not-so-much, Bon was lyrically and rhythmically, in tune to that primal energy. Brian nailed it on BIB, conspiracies aside, we can all agree, that if Bon didn't write those lyrics, Malcom, knew how to get Brian i to that space. Geordie, is nothing like AC/DC. And Can I sit Next to You Girl is fully penned by Malcom. Bon, was nothing if not deeply in tune with groove. Nothing in AC/DC's worl woukd've happened period, if Malcom wasn't there behind the scenes, giving a nod of approval. Make no mistake, I'm a career musician, every band has that guy, not always the flashiest, or most interested in being the focual point. Mal om, was a genius. AC/DC was his vision. It suffered greatly, toward his end, to some degree. Producers, room for other members, and the last success, of HTH, and BIB, along with the entire Bon catalogue, male it understandable. Everyone at some point needs air from tgeir maniacal, obsessiin. Obsesssion is what it tkaes. Unflinching, vision, and self belief. Often mistaken for arrogance. Malcom, was, and remains, a life role madel to me.
It is the damnedest disease, mental torture and then the physical destruction. My little sister born with Downs syndrome lived a good life until 53 when it started and took her from us at age 55, I hate it so much for taking our precious gift.
i could b wrong but i believe that angus is the sole original member as i dont think phil rudd recorded the drum tracks on the 1st album.i think he joined just in time to tour 4 the band.
@@pleasuretokill hey he was very descriptive and passionate in these songs, he's probably looking up at us right now, he did say he was going down all the way and he had the devil whispering in his ear and he said ...he was all ears. I wonder if he's meant Rosie or Night Prowler yet??
@@thenarrowroad7908 well it is a long way to the top if you want to rock and roll and Malcolm lived through a lot. Jammed with his brother Angus and Bon Scott, the 80s with Brian Johnson, birth of the nes, Don Bluths solo career, the grunge alternative 90s, the Disney renaissance, the new millennium of the 2000s through ringtone rap, got to enter the 2010s with the birth of the ipad and lived through most of that decade to see that new technology existed to gave fans listen to the band's music on the go
@@Thomasmemoryscentral ugh I'm not too sure that's a good thing anymore. The way of the sinner is hard. And the way of the unrepentant sinner is eternally hard. And he did say he had the devil whispering in his ear and he said "and I'm all ears"
It's a cruel dease. I've got an uncle that has always had a sharp mind and even a sharper wit and what started out slow in the last 18 months has quickly started taking all that he was, is and ever will be. And realizing that, scares the shit out of me more than diying. But even more, saddens knowing that the man that had such a big part in shaping our lives has been robbed of his humanitie. I just hope I or anyone else i know and love never falls victim to it? But I know what I'd do if I ever did.
OK, I have made it to 2:48 of this 6:26 video and I have not heard a single word about, ‘what was it like for Malcolm in his last year’..Can anyone say anything about it? Or is this just more spam RUclips?
Most of my aunts got It and my grandpa got the parkinson alzheimers. I can understand why there wasnt any big updates due to the diagnosis and the family might have wanted to spend the rest of the time while they could. Its not fun seing a relative or close friend disappear. anyone can understand and agree with angus. Personally: there Is not one victim there Is two when It comes to alzheimer's
Malcom was the Backbone, the Silent partner. Always behind or just out of shot in any of their pictures. His Co lyrics and Rythmic Anthems will never be equalled. RIP X.
..I'm here 2024 and totally agree.. just seen them live 2 weeks ago at wembley uk . Not the same obviously but wow they can still rock! ..time waits for no man

There will never be another Malcolm Young! God bless him. ❤
