Vale George Young...
Co-founder & songwriter (with the equally great Harry Vanda) of our first 'supergroup' the Easybeats... production & songwriting powerhouse for the Australian music scene in the 70s & into the 80s, providing hits for so many Australian artists, as well as the occasional international act...
Probably most famous for this...
... which was included in Richard Thompson's list of the best songs of the last 1000 years
Older brother of Angus & Malcolm... who today said there "would have been no AC/DC without him"
But I'll never forget seeing him as one half of 'Flash & the Pan' on Sunday night television singing this...
And this one... if you've made it this far...
Farewell to an absolute giant of the Australian music scene... So long & thanks for all the hits!!!
