Improbably, though, lead guitarist Angus Young has pulled the band back together. Johnson, Williams, and Rudd are all back in the fold, along with Angus’ nephew Stevie, AC/DC’s replacement for Malcolm, who died in 2017.
Likewise, people ask, what happened to Angus from ACDC?
Scott was invited to join AC/DC by Malcolm and Angus Young in 1974, and achieved international stardom before his death at the age of 33 from alcohol poisoning. He sang on AC/DC’s first six studio albums, including “High Voltage”, “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap”, “Let There Be Rock” and “Highway To Hell”.
Likewise, what is wrong with AC DC lead guitarist? Australian guitarist and AC/DC co-founder Malcolm Young has died aged 64 after a long battle with dementia. He died peacefully on Saturday with his family nearby, a statement said.
Beside this, who got dementia in ACDC?
AC/DC’s Angus Young became visibly emotional in a new interview as he discussed his late brother Malcolm Young’s battle with dementia. Appearing on Australia’s 60 Minutes to mark the release of ‘Power Up’, the interview took an emotional turn for Angus when talk turned to Malcolm’s battle and eventual death in 2017.
