AC/DC was the first ever concert i attended as a 15 year old, complete with riot. Malcolm is my all time fave rhythm guitrist and Let there be rock album the biggest highlight.

The guitar solo to "Shook Me All Night Long" is one of the best ever. Back in the day I didn't bother to learn many guitar solos note for note, but that one is such an integral part of the music that it demands to be learned note for note. I never got tired of playing that and still play it now and again.
I'm going to have to try it on acoustic today now.

Just read that Malcom is officially taking a break from performing
 I would also like to mention TNT, Jailbreak & Big balls to my former list of favorites.

AC/DC was my first un-chaperoned concert. It was 1986 (Who Made Who tour) and mom had to drop my buddies and I off as we did not yet have driver licenses (we were 15). Poplar Creek Music Theatre in the Chicago suburbs.
Let's just say it was an awesome and eye opening experience. Both Young brothers were on fire that night. I wish I could time warp and see that show all over again.

Angus Young has one of the best, if not the best vibrato in the business.....and Malcom Young is every bit the riffmeister that Keith Richards ever was.
Huge talent in a couple of guys that are barely bigger than their guitars.

I'm a big AC/DC fan myself. The first song I ever heard by them was TNT, played on a local (San Jose) radio station at midnight back in 1976. The show was called "Make it or break it"
People would call in and vote. I immediately went out and searched for the LP. It was hard to find, no-one had heard of them. I turned all my friends onto them after I found the LP. I still have it, in fact I have every US and Aussie LP pressing from the Bonn Scott era. Anyway in 1978 I finally got to see them play at a "Day on the Green" in Oakland. Later that night I got to meet both Malcolm and Bonn at a party. It was pretty cool to meet them and spend time talking with them. Bonn and Malcolm are about 5'2", little guys. Bonn's girlfriend was 6 feet tall and spent most of her time trying keep Bonn upright. He bounced off me a couple of times when I was talking with Malcolm. Malcolm and Angus originally came from the same part of Scotland as me so eventhough they were young lads when they left for Australia, Malcolm still remembered a lot about the area and school. I went to see them again when they came back to Oakland in 1980 for the "Back in Black" tour. It was a great show but without Bonn it was a bit depressing. After the show I got back stage and had a beer and smoke with Malcolm. He seemed a bit burned out but it was probably due to playing a long set. They were really cool guys when I met them, not the typical rock star attitude. I hope Malcolm recovers and gets as healthy as he can so he can at least enjoy the rest of his life. They defined 3 chord rock and no-one sounds like these guys. An AC/DC concert is something to experience, hopefully everyone got to see them in their prime.

I always thought "Back in Black" was one of the best Rock albums ever made..I do like a lot of their music, but B in B was the total package..

Either everyone who ever loved rock bought it, or they reached a lot wider than than. I walked out of the store with a copy as soon as I heard it. It spoilt me. I naively thought every record was meant to be that good from start to finish… I thought that's how LPs were.

Mark Kozelek, who has done several mostly acoustic albums under the name Sun Kil Moon, has recorded two albums of quite substantially reinvented ACDC songs with just acoustic guitar and voice. Maybe hardcore ACDC fans might think these covers are taking the p*** - I get the impression my mother's toyboy wasn't keen - but as with many of the last decade or so's trend of unexpected acoustic covers, they do seem to scrape back to a sincerity and a beating heart behind what for many of us would seem to be typical 80s excesses or mere C*ck Rock.
