I never followed the band early on. Now, almost 60 years old I am really listening and watching these old videos. I get such a feeling of endearment and respect between them. I’ve never seen anything like it.
It's amazing how humble the Young brothers are, and how much respect they have for each others playing. Here Malcolm talks about how Angus might go down as the greatest ever. You listen to Angus and he does nothing but praise Malcolm's playing. Said that Malcolm could easily do what Angus does, but he couldn't do what Malcolm does. I believe that, because Angus is hyper. He wouldn't have the patience to be a human metronome, like Mal, and keep perfect time. He needs to go off on a tangent. I'd just say that they are the greatest lead and rhythm guitar duo ever to play. Malcolm is the cake and Angus is the icing.
I wonder what collectively their take would have been on the Towson State College show- Malcolm says here that live it’s tough to hear what Angus does on stage- that show was super tight, and the energy was relentless. I heard an interview once where Malcolm said, “You live for the nights where the band is really cookin’” and that’s one of them, without question.
I love how Angus and Malcolm never stop talking about how much they admire each other’s contributions to the band rather than their own. They were the ultimate bromance in rock lol. Literally!
What a down to earth guy malcom was and a true professional, a rock legend i still can't believe i'm talking about him in the past tense we miss you man. RIP. Malcom Young.
That's a bloody good point Malcolm makes about Angus's ability as a guitarist... he is one shit hot rock guitar player and one day the world will regard him as one of the very best there ever was. It's easy to miss just how good he is as a player, as his guitar work has always pretty much been overshadowed by his showmanship, which in itself is phenomenal..
I think Angus is the best live guitarist ever. Simply because he never makes mistakes. He plays his solos with a bit of a sloppy feel by the man is a machine. In fact that is what made AC/DC the greatest live act ever imo. None of them ever mess up.
hes a virtuoso, theres been others, but hes the greatest one performing right now. not many people can command an audience with a musical instrument like he does, hendrix is the only one I can think of
The best “ live band “ there was, is, every will be. I play AC/DC 95% of the time will driving. My kids by age of 4 could recognize AC/CD songs on the radio.
Acdc got me through so many rough times in my life when I lost my dad my grandpa my brother when my health went to hell I lay in a hospital bed and couldn't move I had my wife play acdc for me and whala here I am I love you guys with all my heart and soul thank you for always being there and for making me feel like you were playing just for me
Malcolm was not underrated nor he could have cared less for being rated at all. By being so insightful and having effortless and organic understanding of what the Rock 'n' Roll really is all about, as much as the business aspect of the showbusiness, he added his intuitive compositions and riffs to the whole picture. He was a genius.
So Many Great Memories from 77 to 2008 I have 18 Shows on 12 Tours only 88 I missed and 2015 Which for me Was A ? Brian Angus Cliff ,No Phil And Malcolm Gone I Am Glad I Saw them Before All Came Apart ,Hope They Are Doing Well ,Retired I Am Sure Was Not Easy Esp the Way it's been Since Malcolm was out of the Picture
It really touches me when angus said "When Malcolm says it's good, i know it's good." With Malcolm gone, being the leader of the band, how will the band be sure if their work is good? Of course, we as fans love it, and i absolutely love Play Ball and Rock or Bust already, but how will Malcolm experience this?
***** There isn't a song called "Man Down" on the track listing. There is a song called "Hard Times" that could possibly be about the current situation.
This is a very telling interview. The way Angus describes it it seems like Malcolm is the quality control and brains behind the music. I'm not sure they can deal with his loss beyond this next tour as far as new material is concerned.
Yep... Malcolm was always the driving engine of that band, right from the beginning he's always been the one who swung the axe so to speak. I agree... can't see em going that much longer without him. But we could be wrong... who knows?
Great, thank you so much. Almost cute how Malcolm mentions AC/DC and the Stones as the only big Rock N Roll bands left. They are huge fans of Keith Richards and Co.
People tend to think that AC/DC is Angus' band, but it isn't. It's Malcolm's. He was definitely the leader and shot caller, although he did ask for Angus' opinion on most everything. One of the greatest rhythm guitarists ever. RIP Mal. Thanks for the great music!
I love the partnership between Mal and Angus. Whenever Angus wasn't sure about a new riff idea, he wouldn't trust anyone else's judgment, but Mal's. They were a great team and they supported each other musically and as brothers. Mal believed in Angus and knew what he was capable of, that really shows how much he had faith Angus and knew he would go onto greater things.
My second ac/dc show with my dad 20.6.2001, a few days before my 11 birthday. Rocking on the right side of the stage on the 3 row. Never forget that day with megadeth and offspring as support. Got me hooked, never missed a show in switzerland since then!!
Get well soon Malcolm best wishes to you and ur family. And for Phill he's a fuckin machine on the drums and as for angus young he's a fuckin great guitarist to both young bothers are underrated but in my books they are number 1
wow thanks for posting this interview!! I have never heard Malcolm say how important Phil is to the sound of acdc..it just doesn't have that umpth… without Phil.
Malcolm is so right about Bon's lyrics. Sure, they're dirty and sleazy, but there's a really beautiful sort of blue-collar poetry to them if you read them. Songs like Down Payment Blues and Ain't No Fun (Waiting Around to be a Millionaire) have a real wistful yearning to them. Funny, but poignant at the same time. I think he could've really gone on to do more amazing things lyrically had he lived.
He should have gone solo to open up the doors to more different genre and also to clear up is health. but yes He was in the fast lane... on the highway to hell
The one thing that makes me upset about these interviews is that when you hear Malcolm speak or you see footage of Bon Scott,they are no longer with us,it makes you feel sad😢The only original members that are still in AC/DC Today is Brian Johnson and Angus Young,it makes you appreciate the years of enjoyment they gave us fans, I hope to enjoy many more years of it,as they cannot be replaced 😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Other than maybe Charlie Watts, Ringo, and when he wanted to, John Bonham, no one else has that swing to their playing like Phil Rudd. Most drummers don't have it. You either do, or you don't. I've been a drummer for over 30 years, and hell I don't have it either.
This might be the best AC/DC interview on youtube. It's so refreshing to hear them say things that AC/DC fans have not heard 1000+ times before. Thank you for posting this!
Loved what Malcolm said about Angus in the end of this video and it's true. Angus is capable of so much more than we know him for, but it's time for him to break out of that damned shell once and for all and show it. They need to release the new album, tour it, then Angus come out with a solo release that will blow everybody's mind with him playing shit other than what people would be expecting to hear from him. " C'mon, Angus, let 'er rip !!! Give us some Robin Trower type shit.
+ReneeNme I reckon Angus one day will do exactly that. Make a solo guitar album of his own... just to show what a complete guitarist he actually is. I imagine it may likely be a blues based album... really ripping in with his own brand of raw feel and emotion. I'd love to hear that!
That is funny, but goddamn... Phil has THE sweetest, smoothed 4/4 back beat I've ever heard. I love good technical drumming, but NO drummer I've heard has ever played a solid 4/4 back beat as smoothly and powerfully as Phil. The man is a metronome.
There are very few bands that I would say that I actually love but AC/DC certainly fits the bill. I can still remember riding with my buddies to a skating rink to hookup with some girls and Drexel popping in Dirty Deeds. Life changing in many ways.
@@martymartin2894 why do scots hate themselves so much they need to take credit for what came out of australia over 40 years ago. Their first and best 6 albums were recorded there. It seems young scots who weren't even born when bon died have no shame in claiming other peoples success as theirs. The thick aussie accents of angus, malcolm, bon, phil and the multitude of former aussie bass players and drummers before 1977 probably explains why wiki disagrees with you. They are indeed the best thing to come out of oz
and vice versa, keith richards and company are huge fans of mal and company. ;) that's why the rolling stones invited the young brothers onstage to play with them in concert, because they respect ac/dc as one of the few remaining, true, original rock 'n' roll bands out there.
This is probably one of the best interviews with the band that I have seen. I guess Chris Slade's take on Phil was dead on, other than he thought Phil came to the NZ concert looking for his job back. Sounds like Malcolm called him and asked him to come back into the band. I guess I can't blame Chris for telling them to take their job and shove it either. Jimmy Page and Elvis Presley both recognized Slade's skills. Page ought to know a good drummer when he hears one. Phil is kind of like an old Model T. Not very reliable, needs worked on constantly, prone to frequent break downs, but people remain loyal to, and have a soft spot in their hearts for it.
AC/DC and Chris Slade are on good terms though. He just wasn't happy when they contacted Phil about a jam session. I know Slade had a lot of good things to say about Malcolm when the news broke out that he had dementia.
You got me man , I never thought anyone else could have thought that exact thing. Fly on the wall with Phil would be a blast . Blow up your video , razors and why not Who made who and big gun ;)
But, by listening to the whole Black Ice album and to Play Ball even, I can totally tell it sounds like a high quality Fly on the Wall. And I read they were producing that album back in 1985 on their own. Maybe back then they didnt have the right mastering engineer. To me, Play Ball and Stormy May Day has the exact vibe of Fly on the Wall
***** brenden o'brien and mutt lange are a joke, their production sucks, it's a joke. Vanda & Young, THAT'S the production that you want. Listen to Powerage and then Highway To Hell, or Stiff Upper Lip then Black Ice
They might be talking about making a cup of tea” fucking hell angus that was shite” you can’t bullshit family and you look to family for the truth about anything you do and it kept them grounded.

I love that Malcolm is not boasting about his own playing or style but he should be because he's the best at rhythm guitar r.i.p. Mal
Malcolm's humility is unsurpassed. The whole group, really. It's refreshing.
I think the greatest character trait you can have, especially if you are rock star famous, is humility. It makes good people love you.
I never followed the band early on. Now, almost 60 years old I am really listening and watching these old videos. I get such a feeling of endearment and respect between them. I’ve never seen anything like it.
I just like watching Malcolm speaking... he was such a smooth guy... Im sad that I wont be able to see him live with the rest of the band
Milan Herich I saw them live in Sydney in 91 I think, memory isn’t what it used to be, and that was the best concert I’ve ever seen in my life.
He never wanted the attention, just wanted to play, that, I think, says it all about him, RIP Malcolm.

Yelling Elk myesm ! 😏kwim ?one of a kind that rnr band.
The best Malcolm Young interview yet.
Malcolm was the best. R.I.P.
I've never seen that interview before, really enjoyed it and I agree with Malcolm people don't realise how good angus is.
6:08 Mal nailed it..Phill Rudd is the real deal. He's the best rock and roll drummer of all time. Phill is the ooomph..
It really doesnt get more down to earth pure Rock n Roll honesty than that
I really miss Malcolm Young. I miss being young. I say it today, and I'll say it at the end. Far and away, that was my band.
Miss Malcolm so much 😔
Love the respect these brothers showed for one another❤️
The best hard rock swing band of all time it's that groove its unique that's why we love them down to earth no b.s.
Malcolm Young - underrated
Ted Danson god rest malcolms soul. Rest in peace malcolm
The best “ live band “ there was, is, every will be. I play AC/DC 95% of the time will driving. My kids by age of 4 could recognize AC/CD songs on the radio.
Just straight up in your face Kick Ass Rock and Roll no sad sappy love songs just pure high energy Rock and Roll like Malcolm said.
Acdc got me through so many rough times in my life when I lost my dad my grandpa my brother when my health went to hell I lay in a hospital bed and couldn't move I had my wife play acdc for me and whala here I am I love you guys with all my heart and soul thank you for always being there and for making me feel like you were playing just for me
The whole band is do humble. The young brothers who live and respect each other. Marvelous

Very grounded Angus
Malcolm won't recover. He'll be dying soon.
@@afistfulofpimples1745 he already did die, RIP
Love you Malcolm ❤
Great to be able to see and hear Malcolm for eternity; sorely missed !
Malcolm, the heart and soul of AC/DC.
Acdc is rock n roll, they define the genre. Simple, energetic, feel-good music. It's Beautiful.

R.I.P MALCOLM YOUNG! YOU WERE A TRUE LEGEND OF A MAN AND FUCK WE ARE GOING TO MISS YOU. SALUTE!
Rare to see an interview of mal by himself
Just awesome!!!!!
Those Young boys all talented
I cant stand Malcolm's gone. It hurts. Contacts float everytime i think about it
I love that band since 1977 becoming humble hard workers, this interview is typical for ac / dc stand up for each other and are good friends
since 1973
Cant believe AC/DC is gone that is the only band i have in my heart 😞
You always stay in our Hearts. R.I.P.

Malcolm is humble and realistic.
as good as it gets.
MALCOLM NEVER REALLY CHANGED OVER THE YEARS.
Who in the hell disliked this? This is Gold!
agree mate
Mal really was the mastermind ... what an incredible man and “rock” musician.. Malcolm Young - Jeff Apter 📖 worth a read for any acadaca fan
🥁 🎸 🎸 🇦🇺
Not a stuckup band at all. None of these guys have ego problems. Unusual for rock bands but that's why they're still playing...
Mal is a guitar genius
so awesome to hear phil rudd talk. and this really should be re-titled as "malcolm young interview with guest appearances with his band mates
I love this interview stuff, thanks!
" technically, Ive got a few problems as a drummer"..Phil is funny!
That is funny, but goddamn...
Phil has THE sweetest, smoothed 4/4 back beat I've ever heard. I love good technical drumming, but NO drummer I've heard has ever played a solid 4/4 back beat as smoothly and powerfully as Phil. The man is a metronome.

I have flaws in my drumming ability that I can cover playing in AC/DC ... Ha, great Phil Rudd comment ... he is a machine!
Class act legends
*bows down*. and the subtitles are actually good. Not that I need them but most of the time Dutch subtitles suck.
Thank you so much for this!
Mal is spot on about Ang here. One day they’ll know. Ang is THE master
The proper Johnson line up, The Back in Black and For Those About to Rock line up, Quality : )
Thanks
Malcolm's the fuckin' real deal!

= dead.
