In a recent interview with Australia’s “60 Minutes,” AC/DC guitarist Angus Young candidly discussed the passing of his brother, founding AC/DC rhythm guitarist Malcolm Young.
Writers for Blabbermouth.net report that Malcolm Young, who died in 2017 from dementia-related causes at age 64, is credited as a writer on all 12 tracks on AC/DC’s latest album, “Power Up.”
