Malcolm Young Not Expected to Return to AC/DC, Author Says

Australian journalist and AC/DC biographer Jesse Fink says he’s “not expecting” to see Malcolm Young return to the group. The author of the new book The Youngs: The Brothers Who Built AC/DC would not comment on the longtime guitarist’s condition, but said that his current illness will be keeping him sidelined.

The Aussie giants have remained tight-lipped about Young’s condition in order to protect his privacy. The only official statement announced he’d be “taking a break” while his colleagues worked on the follow-up to 2008’s Black Ice. No one has commented on speculation that he’s suffered a stroke, has cancer or is fighting Alzheimer’s disease.

Fink also refuses to discuss specifics – but he tells WZLX: “I’m not expecting to see Malcolm return. The important thing is we all let Mal be and hope he can recover. We should all expect that Stevie is in the band now.”

He tells Ultimate Classic Rock: “Fans seem to think his illness is going to go away, and he’s going to be on stage when they announce their tour. If what I’ve heard from numerous sources is true, I expect Stevie will be touring with the band, and not Malcolm. That’s not a seditious viewpoint – it’s realistic.” more on this story
