A couple of the many things I love about Malcolm’s playing - he never over plays but adds extra where others would leave fresh air, and he loosens his muting in the lead in to choruses.
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
@@christianhuber3480 Jeff beck? 😂😂😂😂😂 billy gibbons, slash, srv, John Mayer, Freddie king, bb King, jimmy page any of those ring a bell? Jeff beck fucking blows and ruins any song he is playing.
That still from the Jailbreak video + this isolated track conveys exactly what Mal was: the sentinel of rock 'n roll, always keeping things working from the back.
I just love that power in his playing, he hists those strings so hard, but so precise, he and Angus were like a perfectly tuned engine together. Absolutely outstanding playing. Thank you for the post.
You can hear the pin point precision of The Late Malcolm Young’s playing, and if anything he sounded better live, which is a testimony to his immense skill and talent. R.I.P Malcolm Young
@@wielandschmidt1397 The Late Malcolm Young could play more than three chords, but that’s the genius of the man, he could create great songs from just a handful of chords. Also Malcolm Young was also a very good lead guitarist, but he gave that job to his very talented brother Angus.
@@SprockyBing Good point, I hate it when people make derogatory comments about the Late Malcolm Young (R.I.P), calling him “three chord Malcolm”, which is utterly ridiculous. And so what if a particular AC/DC song uses a handful of chords?, like the old saying goes: “The simple things in life are often the best”.
Malcolm Young is my favorite guitarist. I am very grateful to you for what you are doing. I subscribed to the channel, I'm waiting for new songs. Thank you!!!
You can feel the power and leg stomps as he destroys each chord and plectrum. Every pro says the same, yeah you can play these chords but playing them like he did is the tricky bit. Mastery in rhythm
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!!
@@alaysiakayebutler6299 Thank you very much, I'm amazed by the sound of AC DC, especially the sound of master Malcom's guitar. No wonder I have these initials tattooed on my skin. Forever I will take AC DC!!
The funny thing is everybody want to be a shredder and most people are doing it but they cant play rhythm right it just goes to show you been fast is not been great fast is easy this is hard to play and sound right.

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.
THIS is ASMR my friends
Dude, I know!!! 😮😮😮

Greatest rock rhythm guitarist of all-time.
James Hetfield is no slouch, either.
Izzy Stradlin
Basic,ballsy,Australian sensibility at it's best,RIP Malcolm
@@michaelgraham9774 get real
@scott fraser You get real lol. Compared to Malcolm, Izzy's playing is much more nuanced and diverse

RIP
He also had the Gretsch White Falcon on some songs on Back in Black.
People like "oh AC/DC are easy to play"
Try to do this
Playing AC/DC is easy. Playing AC/DC correctly however is a whole new ball game.
Then playing Megadeth is unreal...
ALOT harder than it sounds!
@@AkkayHT228 It is...
Yeah mate I’m still trying to get this song right after 5 months of practicing it
The engine room of ACDC. This guy had the best gear changes ever...like a Chevy hurtling down the highway....RIP Malcolm Y.
Such a badass tone
jeff beck + malcolm young . best tones ever :)

@@MAshire3 oof lol
@@MAshire3 slash vs jeff beck :) sweet. well obviously you hate jeff beck. thats ok. not all can hear a difference :)
@@MAshire3 what drugs u on?
Wow... long time ACDC fan ... Malcolm playing on his own is a total revelation...
When Mal wrote this riff his old friend Herm Kovac told him it sounded like Gloria.... which it does.
That still from the Jailbreak video + this isolated track conveys exactly what Mal was: the sentinel of rock 'n roll, always keeping things working from the back.
That's what guitar looked like before he stripped the paint off it and made it a single pickup guitar. Apparently it was buried with him.
@@catfeline1530 they didn't bury it with him, but it was in his coffin.
@@catlikemeew I would hope not, that guitar is an icon of rock history.
@@catfeline1530 me too!
At the start its so precise it sounds like a looped track made by a computer, i hope one i day i can be as rock steady as mal
Listen to phil on let there be rock. Serious endurance. I wonder if i can find that isolated. 🤔 These guys are seriously like a freight train...
Oh yeah this is one of his juiciest riffs.
Wow! - Like ABBA, and Olivia Newton John into one - Just utter Fucking poetry! ❤❤❤
Always has been possible my favorite riff. Those 3 chords plus the sauce only he adds is literally perfect.
The perfect riff for this perfect tone
I just love that power in his playing, he hists those strings so hard, but so precise, he and Angus were like a perfectly tuned engine together. Absolutely outstanding playing. Thank you for the post.
Could listen for hours
Always perfect timing !

Skill? Max. 3 chords. 😏

In 1984 this song was playing a lot on the radio in Brasil... a 12 yo kid was hooked...
My God does this rock. Just badass through and through. Rock and roll distilled to its core essence. What a groove. Best Gretsch sound ever.
Darn! Like a piston moving with precision
This gave me chills listening to this that in itself is amazing
Oh, the growl from a '63 TV Jones Filter'Tron.
too bad about the profile image 🦇
Thank you man for creating this It's the swinging dogs bollocks of tone. God bless man.
one of the bigggests in the culture of 20s century. Who's listening from 3:00?
Malcolm is killing it!!
Keep on going !
One of the best Riff Masters ever!!!!
Love this one!! 🙌
Dude is the king of swing rhythm! awesome!!
Mal is so solid on rhythm, he never moves or blinks 🤘
My favorite series on yt right now. Keep up the work!
This fucking rules
Awesome
These are amazing! Please keep ‘em coming!
Wow 👍 one of my fav mal riffs
One of my favorite riff. Ever.
wonderful! do some phil live isolates please
This
Yeah Dr Phil
Pretty sure these tracks are from that Rockband game. No such thing exists with Phil on drums, as far as I know.
No fill Phil.
Looks like a heartbeat it really blow your mind 🤘sounds so wild
Yes!!! Now I can learn it properly!!! Thanks 🙏🏼
More Malcolm please 😊👍👍
Nice
Awesome rhythm guitar, serious rocking out 💪👍🎸
Nobody:
"Riffmaker" in action:
Hell yea
that low E goes on forever
Thanks for sharing 👍🏿👍🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿
Wonderful, thank you very much for the Best music 💖💖💖
How do you get that sound?
Malcolm : "Just hit the strings hard!"
I have a G1X Four Zoom that I have with a custom sound that I made to sound like this whenever this video comes up in my playlist. Its so fun tbh.
If you still out there, would you mind sharing your patch, please? (if you still have it or remember it, of course)
OMC! Thank you so much!
2:50 😎 go on malc
Man that Gretsch sounds good.
Hands of steel with those 13gauge strings and guitar pick like a hammer hitting strings REALLY HARD. There's your TONE.
Great!
Makes me wana go get a 63 Gretch fire jet
I bought the signature version it’s a Japanese made Gretsch, and it’s a joy to play, they are light, but still produce that fat classic rock tone.
@@SR-xk8cd out of interest, what would a bloke expect to pay for the signature edition ?
@@Wolfdog370
In Australia, they go for about $3,500.00.
@@SR-xk8cd cheers, thanks for that 👍
They are really sweet guitars. Now I just wish I could play like this.
Malcom el rey del ritmo.
Unreal
Le violence du son est incroyable!!! Cela vaut toutes les pedales d’effets metal et compagnie!!!
It would be fantastic to hear some Malcolm, Phil and Cliff isolated from the No Bull concert
Rock and Roll!!
You can feel the power and leg stomps as he destroys each chord and plectrum. Every pro says the same, yeah you can play these chords but playing them like he did is the tricky bit. Mastery in rhythm
The engine
This makes me wanna punch through my window
My gretsch sounds similar to mals guitar but one day I hope to perfect his tone one day just by listening to this video
Actually no it doesnt
How do you isolate these tracks?
Боже как добиться такого звука , кроме способа jcm 800, это дорого
Make angus please?
