    No other band flat out ROCKED quite like AC/DC...

    Rest In Peace.

    WOW...
    That is some sad news to me.
    My neighbor got me hooked on AC/DC years ago. Thuderstruck nailed it for me.

    I still listen to them now and again.
    64 is too young. But they did live a hard rockin life to entertain us, didn't they.

    RIP Malcolm.

    Dementia can wreck a mind quick. It's very sad to sit by helpless and watch.
    Been there done that.

    Man this sucks waking up to this news... AC/DC, cranked up as loud as the volume would allow was a rite of passage from the Conway Twitty my mom listened to at the time. A few beers and trying rattle the neighbor’s windows will be the day’s objective, in honor of Malcom.

    RIP and thanks for all of the music.

    Perhaps THE most inventive power chord player and melodic genius in rock history. Gone but never, ever forgotten.

    RIP Malcolm.

    Angus had said in many interviews that he was the best lead guitarist but his drinking got in the way of his abilities.
    But yes i agree strong bad he held it down like no other.

    A much loved musician is gone and you are waiting for one or two more to go so your Plat record collection is worth more???? You need to go from here and quickly. Welcome to the Bozo List!

    Comments like this are proof that Las is here with an agenda and that is to troll this forum until he is kicked out. I ask the Mods to accommodate him swiftly before the virus he is has the chance to spread....

    Well. That's certainly something.

    Quite a nice little tune by Malcom and the boys.
