A tribute to Malcolm Young

Malcolm Young, rhythm guitarist for the band AC/DC, passed away in 2017 at the age of 64 due to dementia. AC/DC will never play again. I caught three of their concerts and happened to meet Bon Scott, original singer for AC/DC in Glasgow, Scotland in 1977.

In the meantime, Scott Ian from Anthrax pays tribute to Malcolm.

Here is Malcolm’s part only, in You Shook Me All Night Long.

And the full throat song from AC/DC live at the River Plate.

A joy to watch and listen.

Your happiest songs?

You and I both have a song. Maybe a number of songs.

A song that, when heard, simply brings a smile to your face. You just can’t help it.

Name some. Name one. Name two.

Here are some of my submissions coming immediately to mind.

1. Mr Blue Sky, by ELO

2. Reelin’ In The Years, by Steely Dan

3. Candy O, by the Cars.

4. Sergeant Fury, by the Sensational Alex Harvey Band

5. Livin’ In the Sunlight, by Geoff Muldaur

6. C’mon Everybody, by Humble Pie

7. California Man, by Cheap Trick

8. Long Cool Woman, by The Hollies

Shh. Quiet. Don’t tell anyone that I like to sing each and every one of these songs.

And these are only a few.

What are the songs that immediately bring a smile to your face — or that you associate with good times?
