ANGUS YOUNG Talks MALCOLM YOUNG Writing "Perfect" AC/DC Guitar Riffs - "I Don't Know How He Conjured Them Up" (Video)

AC/DC guitarist Angus Young Guested on Anders Bøtters Tiny TV to talk about the band's legacy, his first guitar and guitar amp, his favorite AC/DC riffs, the fond memories of Malcom Young, how Highway To Hell was conceived, and the new PWR/UP album.

Angus: "Just listen to our album Powerage; the song 'Riff Raff', that's a cooking guitar riff. That's a good example. On Let There Be Rock, 'Bad Boy Boogie' has got a flavour because it's got a bit of a twist in it. It sounds easy but Malcolm added a little twist. Even when I play it today I think 'How clever was he to do that?' He changed a little note around and it made all the difference. Another great example is 'Back In Black'; I don't know how he conjured them up. The first time I ever heard that (riff), he'd done it on an acoustic guitar."

Power Up is AC/DC’s 17th studio album. For Power Up, the band reunited with producer Brendan O’Brien who helmed the double-platinum Black Ice in 2008 and the gold Rock Or Bust in 2014. Charged up for the next decade, AC/DC cut twelve new tracks for the album, proudly maintaining their signature sound and all of its powerful hallmarks.

The AC/DC lineup of Angus Young (lead guitar), Brian Johnson (lead vocals), Cliff Williams (bass guitar), Phil Rudd (drums), and Stevie Young (rhythm guitar) is firing on all cylinders once again.
