@Paleo Man I agree , but Gibson is rock n roll . Fenders are clean & are suited for jazz , pop etc… imo . Fenders sound limp compared to Gibson. AC/DC , Sabbath & Zeppelin the whole backbone of rock via Gibson. Not a Fender fan .
@VoidDancer Its interesting that he played a Gibson since they have a wider neck and are harder to play especially when learning. A true master of his craft.
@Paleo Man there are many great rnr guitarists . Angus created a whole new type of rnr due to his small hands & that is what makes AC/DC . That is why all their song’s sound the same . Two small handed Scotts … playing in between the stretchy stuff on the neck.
@VoidDancer i would give that honor to michael schenker, the german wonderkund who joined ufo at age 16. he has only gotten better and better as the years flow by. angus is incredible most definitely.
Incredible how humble he is. The founder of one of the biggest rock bands in the world with dozens of iconic guitar riffs but you’d never know it just listening to him. He comes across like a working class chap who plays guitar in his spare time and is almost apologetic about it.
Yeah he's such a genuine guy that him and the rest of the band stole all of Bons lyrics and never gave him credit. BIB was written by Bon. Strange how after that amazing album all their albums following after were garbage.
I’ll never understand how he could land like every note while head banging, jumping, duck walking, and rolling around on the ground shaking. One of kind AC/DC
Years ago I saw an interview where something was mentioned about him being the best rock guitarist. Angus started laughing and said "I'm not even the best guitarist in my band". lol what a humble guy.
Angus Young is the best showman with the most incredible stage presence of any musician I have ever seen. He is quite literally 'The Bomb' as he explodes with energy with every performance.
@fhjh jhgjghj Yeah every single person in the band is like that. Isn't that weird? I mean, look at other bands at the same level as AC/DC. Maybe Kiss could learn a few things from AC/DC.
IAMROY 59 - I think it might be a thing with truly great musicians because apparently when someone asked Hendrix what it was like to be the greatest guitarist in the world he said "I don't know - ask Rory Gallagher". But then again - Clapton, Santana and Zappa aren't exactly known for their lack of ego - so I guess that's where my hypothesis falls to the ground - lol!! Not to mention Jacko Pastorious who introduced himself to Joe Zawinul as "the best bass player in the world".
I’m 58. Been a fan since grade eight. Such a great band. Also so humble and thankful. Ac/Dc is the best rock and roll band for so many reasons. Many respects from this Canadian
Fan since 1978 grade school & they are the greatest band to have been on earth … No one even comes close to the impact these Scottish mythical small folk .. have had on the universe. Matter of fact…. AC/DC travels through the universe & has more than likely deterred a many alien invaders to Earth. True Warrior Gods of Sound
I nearly cried watching this, thinking about Malcolm and how good a person Angus is. There will never be a band like them ever again. Those that grew up with them as the sound track to their youth and beyond are truly blessed. Thank you so much AC/DC.
@O T He's toned it down, though I believe. It was the drugs that made him act so bad back then. I hope he's cleaned up himself and went back to being humble again.
@O T true, but he always has to be in and out of the band because of various reasons, such as for either taxes or immigration. I think he is just frustrated with constantly having to be in and out of the band. But that is just me, what the hell do I know, right.
Agreed, some of the amazing sounds Angus gets out of his Gibson SG, are incredible considering he doesn’t distortion pedals. If you listen to songs like Jailbreak or Kicked In the teeth, some of those sounds Angus got just proves what a musical genius he is on guitar.
@Kim McIntosh we booed RAT off the stage for scorpions world wide live in tacoma dome. My brother spit on the singer. Thats gross and dumb but it was wild times. Massive jack Daniels. Hundreds of bottles everywhere. they actually banned metal concerts in the Tacoma dome for awile.
@Kim McIntosh saw them by accident with Aerosmith. Long awesome story. Roadie let us in back door because he heard us say we drove 8 hours. Never heard of acdc. Blew me away. Crazy little dude playing behind and in the crowd. Spokane Washington. Went home bought all their albums...
I have been listening to AC/DC and going to their concerts for 40 years. Never before have i heard Angus speak. He does seem super cool. Nice to read some of the comments. Makes me feel good:)
And even today, 20 years after this interview, at 65 years old, he's in MUCH better shape than guys in their 20's. Whoever said dynamite comes in small packages, was talking about Angus Young. He is truly THE Rock God of Guitars.
@Self Help @Self Help "you can emulate any effect" -delay -wah -flanger -looper -gated fuzz -ring mod -chorus any tips to emulate these with just reverb and a normal amp?
Sort of like early Clapton -- the sound is just the guitar through the amp, and the distortion is all cranked amplifier. You can especially hear it on the earlier records -- just the amps being cranked. Same with Malcolm. RE reverb -- never heard amp reverb being used on an AC/DC record. Angus also had his amps modded when the band got a bit more popular in the late 70's. He's said so in interviews. Not hot rodded, mind you, but modded to sound more like he wanted them to sound.
He did use one "effect". The Schaffer overdrive was part of his wireless system and is long realized as the magic bullet for the ac/dc sound. Check out solodallas on Clip-Share. He manufactures the best replica using the same circuit. The solodallas storm.
That is what I call a role model: for me one of the 10 best guitar players (I do not think there is THE best, there is just a "top league") ever in history of rock music and such a humble and modest personality!
@phizzler5051 Eric Clapton & others you could mention , are more versatile, can play more styles but as far as straight rock/blues rock ..he's up there with the best and has been since the late 70s.
Best selling rock album of all time, 60,000 seat venues, anthems played at major events, instantly recognizable guitar sound. I’d take underrated in a heartbeat.
AC/DC is just rock ’n’ roll at its best. When they were playing in my home town, and I didn’t notice that. I was so angry with myself. Yeah! AC/DC rock on! And rip Malcolm.
WoW, he hits the mark every single time when he gives an example of the sound and styles of other guitarists before him, whether it’s Hendrix or John Lee Hooker, incredible!
I saw them a few times in my life and they ARE one of the best live shows you could ever see. It always amazes me to watch Angus play... while running around like a chicken with its head cut off... and hit every note.
Angus is amazing as hell. He makes everything look so simple. Back in Black is a masterpiece. His sense of humor is second to none and he truly loves what he does. Thanks for all the music Angus!
This dude gave me so much inspiration to pick it up and start playing. I have no idea how many times I stood in my bedroom as a kid and played along to the Back In Black album. A true legend.
Angus is such a nice feller, he's never had a bad thing to say about anyone. When he's with Brian in an interview situation you know that it's going to be a giggle, they aren't full of themselves they shine with gratitude for where their lives have taken them.
Both Angus & his brother have been cornerstones in the rock & roll world. Laughing with Angus when he keeps making it clear they are little fellas but damn, he can jam & together they're tight... The best....
I only just became a fan of ACDC. I had listened to their music but had never seen them perform. Oh how I regret that. They are superb. Amazing. Angus is so incredible on stage. I went to see an ACDC tribute band recently and couldn't believe the performance . So I googled ACDC concerts and it blew me away. I think Angus should rank up there as one of the top guitarist and performers on stage in the world. He gives 110% to each performance. Plus he is such a nice guy in person. He seems very humble even though he is so famous. What a great guy as are the others in the band.
Angus is far to modest, if I could watch Angus Young or Jimi Hendrix I'd go watch Angus every single time. His energy on stage is astounding. An entertainer who has the audience reacting to every action and chord. An absolute legend and definitely my all time favourite guitarist
Me too man! And I’m an Aussie .. how embarrassing. Just bought a bunch of second hand cds and loving them! Hard to believe Thunderstruck is 30 years old?! The Razor’s Edge record
Interviews like this are so revealing and in a way inspirational. You realize what a "regular guy" Angus is, and yet, just sitting there on his couch, he dances from one crazy elaborate move or sound to another, just sitting there. And mixing in all the blues and other "covers", you can see what a really skilled and versatile musician he is. People just watching AC/DC play would probably never know.
What a dorky, wonderful, intelligent, down-to-earth guy! This man and his band brought an unbelievable amount of really great music into this world! Thanks boys!
Angus Young has one of the most recognizable guitar sounds in all of rock 'n' roll ... The sound of his SG through a Marshall stack, unadorned by effects. What could be more simplistic? 143 lbs. of pure rock! A living legend, and one of the greatest electric guitarists of all-time.
Seen Angus twice and untill ya see acdc live ya not seen a real rock band ..that guy works his nuts off like no over...never misses a note ..feels every thing he plays and we all go with it ...love acdc...wish I could go back to the 80s and live my life all over again discovering acdc songs.ya just don't get bands like .acdc .thin lizzy ..motorhead ...any more...some OK stuff about..but it ain't the same ..Angus is a absolute legend ..humble and a genius
I couldn't agree more! I'd luv to see them just 1 more time. Its been 22yrs and in those yrs ACDC is still the best concert I've been to. Even Pink Floyd doesn't come close.
Without a doubt one of the greatest live guitarists/performers to ever pick up a six string. When you watch him live, it's like he's in a state of ecstasy. He never looks at his instrument, he is completely in the zone, he is one with his guitar. An incredible musician. His brother was his equal. They were born to do this.
Angus is so frikin badass. Watching him play with an SG Junior and straight to a probably a little ten watt amp and you can still hear that swagger and attitude.
Oh Angus , how we love you. From the very humblest of beginnings , that we in Australia treasure being a part of , to now being THE MOST recognizable musician on the planet ! So bloody proud of you . And so was Mal.
You could listen to Angus play forever, he’s a musical genius, and that classic rock tone is magical. Angus Young has immortalised the Gibson SG, and in spite of all his well deserved success, he comes across as very down to Earth and humble, absolutely no arrogance at all.
When you want rock, look no further............. That guy killed it... You will always know angus, always, people say he is simple, I say he is rock guitar GOD...
Aussie rock legend and his never done drugs or alcohol . See kids you can be famous and not go down that path . What an inspiration for younger people . On ya Angus
@Bush Cat crap on.. he doesnt sound anything like a scot. And how would an american know anything about anything. You lot cant even find Hawaii on a world map.. angus's family moved to sydney in 1963 so by the time of 15 years of living in sydney his accent was long gone.. billy connolly.. get a passport will ya..
Angus is the reason I picked up the guitar roughly forty years ago. Malcolm is the reason I love it. These guys are the King. How in the world can they be bested? Live shows are just incredible.
A rock star that has no ego at all. humble and unpretentious. what an amazing human being.
@Paleo Man I agree , but Gibson is rock n roll . Fenders are clean & are suited for jazz , pop etc… imo .
Fenders sound limp compared to Gibson.
AC/DC , Sabbath & Zeppelin the whole backbone of rock via Gibson.
Not a Fender fan .
@VoidDancer Its interesting that he played a Gibson since they have a wider neck and are harder to play especially when learning. A true master of his craft.
@Paleo Man there are many great rnr guitarists . Angus created a whole new type of rnr due to his small hands & that is what makes AC/DC . That is why all their song’s sound the same . Two small handed Scotts … playing in between the stretchy stuff on the neck.
@VoidDancer i would give that honor to michael schenker, the german wonderkund who joined ufo at age 16. he has only gotten better and better as the years flow by. angus is incredible most definitely.
When you are the greatest Rock n Guitarist ever … there is only humbleness.
Two of the smallest guitarists in the world, created one of the biggest, most powerful guitar sounds ever. So great to see humility in such success.
He kept going on about his height, and not being a fan; I Googled it. 5' 2!! Jesus ! He's tiny ! And his brother was 5'3 !!
The Biggest
Incredible how humble he is. The founder of one of the biggest rock bands in the world with dozens of iconic guitar riffs but you’d never know it just listening to him. He comes across like a working class chap who plays guitar in his spare time and is almost apologetic about it.
@J Alsbrook44 they co founded.
Angus didn’t found AC DC. Malcolm did
THIS ☝🏻
Listen up kids, AC DC is real Rock & Roll .
He seems like a genuinely good guy, hasn’t let his success go to his head, long live rock Angus.
He is Australian. They don't appreciate that American boosted ego. More you are humble, people like you more.
There's always that one guy in the comments....
Yeah he's such a genuine guy that him and the rest of the band stole all of Bons lyrics and never gave him credit. BIB was written by Bon. Strange how after that amazing album all their albums following after were garbage.
He gives so much respect to his brother. Have to love Angus.
Malcolm was a monster...he deserves the respect!👍
THIS!
I’ll never understand how he could land like every note while head banging, jumping, duck walking, and rolling around on the ground shaking. One of kind AC/DC
Years ago I saw an interview where something was mentioned about him being the best rock guitarist. Angus started laughing and said "I'm not even the best guitarist in my band". lol what a humble guy.
That's amazing - for feels and tone he's up there for sure.
AY doesn’t need any recognition.
Love this guy!
He has respect for his brother.
He’s always said Malcolm was the better guitarist
Angus Young is the best showman with the most incredible stage presence of any musician I have ever seen. He is quite literally 'The Bomb' as he explodes with energy with every performance.
Such a great guitarist and such a humble human.
@Antarath Those are my two faves right there. Something tells me I would have better luck hanging out with AC/DC than with KISS
@fhjh jhgjghj Yeah every single person in the band is like that. Isn't that weird? I mean, look at other bands at the same level as AC/DC. Maybe Kiss could learn a few things from AC/DC.
This is what I've always loved about all the guys in AC/DC. Their humility. They've always remained very humble and never let fame go to their heads.
Absolute Rock Legend!!! He is one of the greatest, and is too humble to even realize it....
IAMROY 59 - I think it might be a thing with truly great musicians because apparently when someone asked Hendrix what it was like to be the greatest guitarist in the world he said "I don't know - ask Rory Gallagher". But then again - Clapton, Santana and Zappa aren't exactly known for their lack of ego - so I guess that's where my hypothesis falls to the ground - lol!!
Not to mention Jacko Pastorious who introduced himself to Joe Zawinul as "the best bass player in the world".
A legend that doesn’t know it. This is what make him endearing, and his epic guitar licks.
I’m 58. Been a fan since grade eight. Such a great band. Also so humble and thankful. Ac/Dc is the best rock and roll band for so many reasons. Many respects from this Canadian
Fan since 1978 grade school & they are the greatest band to have been on earth … No one even comes close to the impact these Scottish mythical small folk .. have had on the universe.
Matter of fact…. AC/DC travels through the universe & has more than likely deterred a many alien invaders to Earth.
True Warrior Gods of Sound
I nearly cried watching this, thinking about Malcolm and how good a person Angus is. There will never be a band like them ever again. Those that grew up with them as the sound track to their youth and beyond are truly blessed. Thank you so much AC/DC.
AC DC legends for life amazing talent
I am 72 and have been listening to this band ever since they hit the USA…and still listening in 2022. Rest In Peace Malcom and Bonn
@rob b High Voltage. That more like.
your surname......tell me you ain't cousin of him......
@rob b
"Bit gay mate"
That's OK Rob...We 're an inclusive lot here.
You can be anything you want to be!!
Thanks for sharing...
.
I absolutely love this man.
God-given talent bursting out of his pores yet so humble.
Such a laid back guy, but when he's on stage he is a monster
Angus is so mellow and unpretentious... One of the COOLEST rock stars ever!!
Angus is one of most underrated guitarist in rock'n roll ever. Noone could support Malcolm like that..
How can you not love this guy.
This is what I've always loved about all the guys in AC/DC. Their humility. They've always remained very humble and never let fame go to their heads.
@O T He's toned it down, though I believe. It was the drugs that made him act so bad back then. I hope he's cleaned up himself and went back to being humble again.
@O T true, but he always has to be in and out of the band because of various reasons, such as for either taxes or immigration. I think he is just frustrated with constantly having to be in and out of the band. But that is just me, what the hell do I know, right.
Long live Chris Rees biggest acdc fan I knew ,rip rees
I have never seen anyone else who performs to the level of stability and heart the way Angus does!!!
a master of getting so many different sounds from the one instrument and one amp with no lessons. he's a genius
Agreed, some of the amazing sounds Angus gets out of his Gibson SG, are incredible considering he doesn’t distortion pedals.
If you listen to songs like Jailbreak or Kicked In the teeth, some of those sounds Angus got just proves what a musical genius he is on guitar.
I love this guy. He is just so natural and honest.
I love how calm he is. Considering how energetic to music is! Wonderful guy and player
It’s crazy. I just read hundreds of these comments and there isn’t a single hate comment. This man has the greatest fans of all time. All positivity.
Who could hate this legend
His humble nature will quash hate in the worst of people.
And if they do hate on em they have to deal with us aussies and get there teeth kicked in 🤘
@Kim McIntosh we booed RAT off the stage for scorpions world wide live in tacoma dome. My brother spit on the singer. Thats gross and dumb but it was wild times. Massive jack Daniels. Hundreds of bottles everywhere. they actually banned metal concerts in the Tacoma dome for awile.

Honesty from his words and his playing. Just pure honesty. Plays what he feels. The fans, we all feel it and we all get it.
Not only one of the greatest rock guitarists in the world but humble to boot...
the most unassuming and humble man ever, yet absolute mass of energy on stage...legend
A career without pedals or effects . Wow. Pure guitar playing.
@Self Help @Self Help "you can emulate any effect"

@Darrin Paul 23 years huh? How many records you sold?
That is what I call a role model: for me one of the 10 best guitar players (I do not think there is THE best, there is just a "top league") ever in history of rock music and such a humble and modest personality!
nothing today compares to the sounds of the 80's !! this band will ALWAYS be a part of my history.
A true Legend and still going strong after all these years ! Rock On !
This chap is way better than I ever gave him credit for when I was a teenager in the 70's.
This guy is just unbelievably likable, oh btw he is also a legendary rock star.
Angus Young is actually a very underrated and competent blues player. Better than a lot of people give him credit for being.
@phizzler5051 Eric Clapton & others you could mention , are more versatile, can play more styles but as far as straight rock/blues rock ..he's up there with the best and has been since the late 70s.
@wt8012 I know what you mean.
Underrated?
Where have you been the last 30 years?
Best selling rock album of all time, 60,000 seat venues, anthems played at major events, instantly recognizable guitar sound. I’d take underrated in a heartbeat.
Dereck Trucks said he was floored when he saw AC/DC live. Nobody has vibrato like Angus Young.
The little brother energy is what makes him so great
Love, Angus Young. So talented. Him and Malcom!!
Love the way he chuckles like a child, this childlike innocence and curiosity is what music is all about.
a very humble yet so amazing guitarist...one of the greatest.rest in peace brother.
Best freaking ROCK guitar in history!!!!
so incredibly talented, yet humble! AC/DC soul... not ANYone
He may not be tall, but the man is a giant.
@Antony Stringfellow hes really quite charming.
Legend
Fuck yeah!
Yes James P!! Angus is a giant!! One of the,if not the goat! He is by far my favorite!!
@Ian Aplin Holy Crap, Donington was a show! Good your lad is learning what a great concert sounds and looks like!
What a humble Legend.
So much humility in this guy… So much respect for his mentors… While the guy is such a guitar hero… Angus u rock man \o/
Such a great, humble guitarist. Seems like such a cool fella. Love his iconic riffs.
Man...20 years passed from 2001. like a song...and ACDC still rocking! That's insane!
This guy is like the character Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. A gentle person in everyday life and a "Monster" on stage.
He's in one of the greatest rocknroll bands of all time. His humility is impressive if not endearing.
@Taylor Jaques BUT there is Stevie, Malcolm's son... plays in Mal's spot now. I actually hope they carry on
He IS the greatest rock n roll bands, now he’s the only remaining old player left, once he’s gone, AC/DC will be too, which is a sad thought
AC/DC is just rock ’n’ roll at its best. When they were playing in my home town, and I didn’t notice that. I was so angry with myself. Yeah! AC/DC rock on! And rip Malcolm.
I think it's very endearing!
his guitar playing is incredible i can listen to it all freaking day
Seen these guys in concert 8 times and Angus always seems to surpass himself. Best ever for my $$$.
One of the best lead guitarists ever! Identifiable tremolo undoubtedly
WoW, he hits the mark every single time when he gives an example of the sound and styles of other guitarists before him, whether it’s Hendrix or John Lee Hooker, incredible!
Grew up listening to this man and his brother rock the world.....I'm a grandpa now but I still rock out to AC/DC
I saw them a few times in my life and they ARE one of the best live shows you could ever see.
It always amazes me to watch Angus play... while running around like a chicken with its head cut off... and hit every note.
I love the sound in his voice.
Such a humble, easy going man. The countless hours we have all spent listening to his playing were well spent. Never went to his head.
Humble to the bone kick ass lad
Angus is amazing as hell. He makes everything look so simple. Back in Black is a masterpiece. His sense of humor is second to none and he truly loves what he does. Thanks for all the music Angus!
The loudest band i've ever heard. Real legends.
This dude gave me so much inspiration to pick it up and start playing. I have no idea how many times I stood in my bedroom as a kid and played along to the Back In Black album. A true legend.
what a likeable fellow, what a honest music. Shows that hardrock originates in the blues. Forever respect for ACDC!
What an Awesome Humble guy as others have mentioned! Just an ICON
AC/DC: 41 years rocking, over 200 million albums worldwide and they still behave as if they were a small club band ...😎
Angus is such a nice feller, he's never had a bad thing to say about anyone. When he's with Brian in an interview situation you know that it's going to be a giggle, they aren't full of themselves they shine with gratitude for where their lives have taken them.
Most thoroughly enjoyable guitar interview I've ever heard. And what gentleman at that. Thank you Mr. Young and tuber for this tremendous upload...
Не пафосная ЗВЕЗДА и ЛЕГЕНДА рока! Спасибо огромное за Ваш клип.
Both Angus & his brother have been cornerstones in the rock & roll world. Laughing with Angus when he keeps making it clear they are little fellas but damn, he can jam & together they're tight... The best....
One of the best guitarists to ever live, from the most famous rock'n'roll band of all time, Angus Young : "well I do happen to play the guitar"
"Little guys gotta compensate " Possibly so. This man takes the back seat to none in entertainment. The best showman imho
@YTuser Not even close
he is a fucking beast on stage no doubt
Angus is dynamite, giving it all he’s got every time he’s on stage.
@Dylan Clotworthy Brian May, basically everyone in that band.
Oooh dunnno freddie mercury was up there too
I only just became a fan of ACDC. I had listened to their music but had never seen them perform. Oh how I regret that. They are superb. Amazing. Angus is so incredible on stage. I went to see an ACDC tribute band recently and couldn't believe the performance . So I googled ACDC concerts and it blew me away. I think Angus should rank up there as one of the top guitarist and performers on stage in the world. He gives 110% to each performance. Plus he is such a nice guy in person. He seems very humble even though he is so famous. What a great guy as are the others in the band.
Check out their river plate gig mate amazing sound, amazing crowd.
I am a fan
Angus is far to modest, if I could watch Angus Young or Jimi Hendrix I'd go watch Angus every single time.
His energy on stage is astounding. An entertainer who has the audience reacting to every action and chord.
An absolute legend and definitely my all time favourite guitarist
Took me 50 years but I finally get it...these guys are the real deal, love it, just downloaded a ton of their music...rock on boys, RIP Malcolm
Me too man! And I’m an Aussie .. how embarrassing. Just bought a bunch of second hand cds and loving them!
Hard to believe Thunderstruck is 30 years old?! The Razor’s Edge record
Interviews like this are so revealing and in a way inspirational. You realize what a "regular guy" Angus is, and yet, just sitting there on his couch, he dances from one crazy elaborate move or sound to another, just sitting there. And mixing in all the blues and other "covers", you can see what a really skilled and versatile musician he is. People just watching AC/DC play would probably never know.
A rock'n'roll god, a musical genius and a great guy! :)
What a dorky, wonderful, intelligent, down-to-earth guy! This man and his band brought an unbelievable amount of really great music into this world! Thanks boys!
True guitar god paying homage to the greats. So humble yet so gifted. THIS IS THE STUFF LEGENDS ARE MADE OF/
what an absolutely cool, down to earth, fantastic guy....
Angus Young has one of the most recognizable guitar sounds in all of rock 'n' roll ... The sound of his SG through a Marshall stack, unadorned by effects. What could be more simplistic? 143 lbs. of pure rock! A living legend, and one of the greatest electric guitarists of all-time.
He's so humble, brilliant guitar player...one of the best
Seen Angus twice and untill ya see acdc live ya not seen a real rock band ..that guy works his nuts off like no over...never misses a note ..feels every thing he plays and we all go with it ...love acdc...wish I could go back to the 80s and live my life all over again discovering acdc songs.ya just don't get bands like .acdc .thin lizzy ..motorhead ...any more...some OK stuff about..but it ain't the same ..Angus is a absolute legend ..humble and a genius
I couldn't agree more!
I'd luv to see them just 1 more time. Its been 22yrs and in those yrs ACDC is still the best concert I've been to. Even Pink Floyd doesn't come close.
Without a doubt one of the greatest live guitarists/performers to ever pick up a six string. When you watch him live, it's like he's in a state of ecstasy. He never looks at his instrument, he is completely in the zone, he is one with his guitar. An incredible musician. His brother was his equal. They were born to do this.
Angus Young couldn't be a more top shelf person if he tried, nor a better rock star. Classy, and to the point as usual.
8:50-8:55 you can see in his eyes he's not home, he's just so far into that little riff. Still in love with the guitar.
Very down to earth and humble guy.
Angus is so frikin badass. Watching him play with an SG Junior and straight to a probably a little ten watt amp and you can still hear that swagger and attitude.
Oh Angus , how we love you.
From the very humblest of beginnings , that we in Australia treasure being a part of , to now being THE MOST recognizable musician on the planet !
So bloody proud of you . And so was Mal.
When it comes down to it, Angus has shown for a half a century that he can rock harder than anybody else.
Легенда рока, простота и доступность
It's amazing how one of the smallest guitars they make looks like a bass in his hands.
The best plug and play guitarist of all time....hands down.
What a refreshing and humble guy.....AcDc are simply awsome.
Nice! We can only pray that more guitarists like him are coming on soon Peace rock man! Thanks!
He gave it all he had every time and all the time. That's what makes a rock star keep kicking man. We love you
You could listen to Angus play forever, he’s a musical genius, and that classic rock tone is magical.
Angus Young has immortalised the Gibson SG, and in spite of all his well deserved success, he comes across as very down to Earth and humble, absolutely no arrogance at all.

@Mathias Forslund, Garcia played SG's, starting with the Warlocks.

he's a legend not one bit pompous either
Amazing to hear guys like this talk about their craft. They know it so well, and always pay homage to those that came before them.
A Legendary Star across decades.
His humility is what makes him larger than life.
When you want rock, look no further............. That guy killed it... You will always know angus, always, people say he is simple, I say he is rock guitar GOD...
Angus is one of the best guitarist on the planet, absolutely in the top 3.
Aussie rock legend and his never done drugs or alcohol . See kids you can be famous and not go down that path . What an inspiration for younger people . On ya Angus
@Strokey Nonce his accent sounds very Aussie maybe his early childhood Scottish accent comes out a tiny bit
@david fraser That was his Scottish alter ego.
@Bush Cat 🤣
@Strokey Nonce yes until 1963. Sounds nothing like scottish..
@Bush Cat crap on.. he doesnt sound anything like a scot. And how would an american know anything about anything. You lot cant even find Hawaii on a world map.. angus's family moved to sydney in 1963 so by the time of 15 years of living in sydney his accent was long gone.. billy connolly.. get a passport will ya..
Angus is the reason I picked up the guitar roughly forty years ago. Malcolm is the reason I love it. These guys are the King. How in the world can they be bested? Live shows are just incredible.
He's a MASTER OF GUITAR !!!
Still rockin after all these years.
