Their music was the best and will live on.

Always went to see them when they performed in Melbourne.

R.I.P Stevie

I saw Stevie Wringht in A Long Way To The Top in Sydney a few years ago. He was fabulous.

Todayis a sad day for all his fans and family.

His music will live on though.

The ABC screened "Blood and Thunder" last night and it was kind of a nice tribute to Stevie Wright and the Easybeats- going right back to their beginnings.

Something I never knew was that Angus Young is the youngest brother of Geeorge Young ( Vanda & Young) songwriters extrodinaire. If anyone hasn't seen it, it is well worth a watch
