One of rock's great rhythm guitarists, and co-founder of AC/DC, has passed at age 64 from dementia. Thanks for ruining the holidays, idiot. RIP. Malcolm Young, guitarist and co-founder of AC/DC, died Saturday at the age of 64. Young had been suffering with dementia for the past three years, an illness that forced his retirement from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame-inducted band he founded with his brother Angus Young in 1973.
"Today it is with deep heartfelt sadness that AC/DC has to announce the passing of Malcolm Young," AC/DC wrote in a statement.
"Malcolm, along with Angus, was the founder and creator of AC/DC. With enormous dedication and commitment he was the driving force behind the band. As a guitarist, songwriter and visionary he was a perfectionist and a unique man. He always stuck to his guns and did and said exactly what he wanted. He took great pride in all that he endeavored. His loyalty to the fans was unsurpassed."
Angus Young added, "As his brother it is hard to express in words what he has meant to me during my life, the bond we had was unique and very special. He leaves behind an enormous legacy that will live on forever. Malcolm, job well done."www.rollingstone.com/music/news/malcolm-young-acdc-guitarist-and-co-founder-dead-at-64-w512164

I’ve been an AC/DC fan since the Bon Scott days. Unfortunately, I missed see Bon before he died. I saw AC/DC’s first headlining show at Madison Square Garden back in December 1981. Great show. Saw them many times over the years and they were always good. Sad to see another rock legend die. Rest In Peace Malcolm.

All of these guys were relatively young.
