This never-before-released interview took place in a San Francisco hotel room on October 22, 1983, during AC/DC’s "Flick of the Switch" tour. Lead guitarist Angus Young, the man with the million-dollar vibrato, begins with a heartfelt discussion of his brother Malcolm, whom he insists is a far better guitarist. He talks about their older brother George, who found worldwide success with the Easybeats and went on to produce the early AC/DC albums. As our conversation progresses, Angus details how AC/DC creates and records songs, his strategy for soloing, his love of SG guitars and Marshall amps, his favorite AC/DC songs, his thoughts on other players, and much more.
As soon as Angus and I wrapped it up, I interviewed his brother Malcolm. You can hear this conversation here: • AC/DC’s Malcolm Young:... .
Edited versions of my interviews with Angus and Malcolm Young were published as Guitar Player magazine’s Feb. 1984 cover story.
