George Young, the older brother of AC/DC‘s Angus Young and Malcolm Young, and the co-producer of the band’s first five albums “High Voltage“, “T.N.T.“, “Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap“, “Let There Be Rock”, and “Powerage“ has passed away at the age of 70. Young served as a mentor to his younger brothers and also performed in The Easybeats.
AC/DC commented:
“It is with pain in our heart that we have to announce the passing of our beloved brother and mentor George Young. Without his help and guidance there would not have been an AC/DC.
As a musician, songwriter, producer, advisor and much, much more, you could not ask for a more dedicated and professional man.
As a brother, you could not ask for a finer brother. For all he did and gave to us throughout his life, we will always remember him with gratitude and hold him close to our hearts.”
