George Young, the brother of AC/DC's Angus Young and Malcolm Young, has passed away at the age of 70. George produced the first five AC/DC albums and also found success in the rock world with his band The Easybeats. He and his co-producer and bandmate Harry Vanda wrote for rock and pop artists over the years as well under both their real names and as aliases, and George can be found in the ARIA Hall Of Fame.
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.
As always, we wish the Young family and everyone who knew George peace at this time.
