You are VASTLY...

...underestimating one of the finest rhythm sections in rock there, fella. Without Phil or Cliff, AC/DC would be just as compromised as without Angus or Malcolm. Ver 'DC are that rarest of rock bands: one in which every single musician is equally brilliant and equally indispensable.

1
STD | 21 February 2011 - 8:41pm

I stand corrected

Happy to readjust the Phil/Cliff percentage by another 10. But I think I'd have to insist that Angus, and especially Malcolm, have the lion's share of influencing how the band has developed and both essentially call the shots, both in conceiving the songs and riffs and on the business side of things.
