What a great rythm part. When listening to the whole band it was easy to lose him in the mix. But this demonstrates some surprising truths about his playing. First, it's not simple 8th note power strokes you might expect. Its got a much more developed , punchy syncopated feel which makes the whole song more rhythmically interesting. And 2nd, he's not using a heavily distorted sound. It's a pure rock and roll sound that allows his parts to sound more rhythmic instead of an unclear sound from heavy distortion. He relied on the bass and drums to produce a lot of the power. IMO They were the grestest stadium band ever. They knew how to construct a sound that could project out to tens of thousands better than any one.

Malcolm understood better than anyone that the space between the notes is every bit as important as the notes used. Sometimes, more important. How many times have you seen bar bands with 2 guitars playing the verses on Highway To Hell? Yeah, it's thicker and wider but, one guitar cuts through better. It's ballsier. It's meaner. It's more aggressive. Gone Shootin has Malcolm playing one chord on the verse while Angus plays that bluesy melodic lead. Malcolm knew better than anybody that great rhythm doesn't need to be busy

He is the creator of these simple and irresistible riffs that have made the Australian band so distinctive. Malcolm Young is the metronome of AC / DC, the guarantee of consistency, the loom of the heavy solid carpet on which the whole sound of the band and his brother's solos are based. Malcolm Young created most of the riffs for eternity . No other band is as sure to be recognizable within three seconds as AC / DC. Malcolm Young is the USP, AC / DC's Unique Selling Point.

Angus’ part is child’s play compared to playing Malcolm’s. That syncopated rhythm is so difficult to near impossible to replicate. To anyone that hasn’t played Malcolm’s part, that main B5 riff actually tires out your hand, largely due to the fact that the strings are incredibly thick and you have to keep your fingers press down hard when playing that chord.

Truly awe inspiring as you hear and feel the thunderous power over the speakers. The rhythms are not complicated and they didn’t need to be. The band is a testament to simple, solid straightforward rock and roll uniting rock lovers alike. RIP Malcolm. 💪🏼🎸🤘🏼
