They don't have a decent replacement for Brian Johnson, I think you're right.End of an era
you have the voice (Brian) and also you have the energy (Angus) that make up most of AC/DC. You lose either one is like no nipples on a 34c boob
RIP Malcolm Young
Was at the last concert in TO in 2008. Nothing better than blaring For those about to rock on the radio
surprised nobody mentions the passing of elder brother George last monthhttp://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/george-young-easybeats-guitarist-and-acdc-producer-dead-at-70-w509890
Easy Beats were the Beatles of Australia. George Young and Harry Vander wrote pile of great hits, including "Friday on my mind" and on and on. big loss in that family in the past month.

why is it the lead guitarist and vocalist getting all the attention and more pussy than the rhythm guitarist, backing vocalist and songwriter of a rock band? No doubt, Malcolm was the driving force behind the power house > AC/DC!
Oh maybe for the same reason Eddie Van Halen and David Lee Roth get the attention.why is it the lead guitarist and vocalist getting all the attention and more pussy than the rhythm guitarist, backing vocalist and songwriter of a rock band?

Angus Young is no slouch as a guitarist and alternate front man. Brian Johnson is a pretty good front man. Kind of overshadow any rhythm guitarist. Name one rhythm guitarist/backup singer who dominates a band.
It would seem that the Young family does not have longevity on their side.
Way too young in both cases. Very sad.
All original members + Brian were instrumental to their sound. For example even as 'basic' as the drumming was, it's exactly what the music called for. One of the best of all time.
Never heard a Mick Taylor track with the stones. I don't listen to them much. However the first album, which consisted of Chuck Berry covers or songs of a similar ilk, showed Keith off as a kick ass lead guitarist. Never liked much of his stuff since, but he was the lead guitarist. The blonde guy with the Beatle hair cut was Brian jones, strumming away on rhytm guitar. the vid isn't them playing route 66, they are playing something else.However Mick Taylor's brief contributions seem to have faded away. Replacement Ronnie Wood, also plays rhythm guitar. Keith has always played lead.
The bizarre fact about dementia/Alzhimer's is that it slows down with age, at just 64 Malcolm got taken out quick. RIP....
