Gillan with Yngwie

[@Starbreaker198IX]

Yngwie is a magnificent musician and here he is with one of his idols, he was a great fan of Deep Purple and specially of Richie Blackmore.

[@Fuxerz]

I thought it was Ritchie said next door for a minute.

[@jeje6915]

3:11 Ian Gillan is a great Beatboxer

[@SchenkerScorpions]

Ian is my hero!!

[@zorkamedic9234]

И Мој !!!

[@1958marky]

Yngwie totally admires this guy -- Deep Purple Fireball (1971) stunned Yngwie as a kid and he started listening to Purple quite regularly after that, molding his stylings off Ritchie Blackmore... which did not turn out to be a bad thing for him -- Yngwie is a powerful guitarist in his own right.

[@Lil1943]

It always gives me a laugh - I don't get tired of it, either. Gillan is great in an interview.

[@TonyTakano]

I love the way how Ynwie show his respect to Gillan :)

[@SalvoVecchioGuitar]

Amazing, two incredible musicians!!

[@VadiaMusic]

such a great man!!!

[@metledsabbsthica]

god he smokes with this voice . i heart gillan.

[@staircasejumper1124]

A magnificent duo

[@monicabarreto8592]

Such a warm Interview.

[@reclaimerReclaimer]

Cool to hear Ian mention Odense, my hometown and on my 24th birthday too.

[@patricioandres4237]

I didn´t know Bill Murray had long hair in the 90s...

[@juancarlosaunion8026]

GILAN es el mejor, el mas GRANDE...!!!

[@ratbatblu]

I love the way Gillan messes with the dirty press lol

[@lr882027]

Good interview, I liked the two albums Gillan put out in this era, never got to see him solo, only ever with Purple, wish I had. Funny bloke, hard to get your head round it was 34 years ago. Off to see Malmsteen in a couple of weeks, will definitely be interesting.

[@hendrixon]

0:37 "-Sing down instead of sing up?" Love this type of swenglish expressions! Fully understandable when you're from Sweden, not too obvious if you're not. Those seconds of Ian Gillan not getting the question are priceless...

[@TammyCreswell-l7h]

Still love yngwie malmsteen and ian Gillian (Deep Purple) in 2024

[@forestghost7]

hey thanks for the heads up - I remember when Yngwie was thin (he's my neighbor here in Miami 3 blocks away) He's workin on the weight tho :D

[@AudiophileTubes]

Yngwie WAS and IS the consummate ROCK STAR!

[@hectorgonzalez9170]

Not really. I know he's the biggest of asshole. Look up asshole in the dictionary it has his picture.

[@rosekittygraykittyjackkitt9676]

That is true but Yngie is not an artist.

[@LittleJohnaton]

he's a knob

[@warrendchanard]

of course his main influence is bach and other classical musician, but you can't deny blackmore,roth,and even hendrix influence apparent in his playing and style

[@randytauren]

yngwie being yngwie., can't get better than that

[@olgak_9932]

Ну, приколист, блин)))). Лучший!!!!

[@shredsixsixsix9218]

So cool Yngwie is influenced by Purple,plays on stage with Gillan,then Gillan say ,"I don't think I can afford Yngwie actually" I've seen Blackmore live ,by the way.He ALWAYS plays with a SLIDE to play his very lyrical melodies ,i've never once seen Yngwie use a slide at all ,i've seen him many times Uli Roth has a strong Blackmore influence in his ballads .Uli plays all the semi tones and uses the Diminished and Asymetrical scales with all the modes and is the SKY Guitar 's MASTER!

[@metamorphosis67]

+Shred Sixsixsix Blackmore I can take or leave. Sometimes he's impressive, most of the time he's annoying. The main reason I liked Purple was the great vocalists, especially Gillan, who sang like real men, or at least didn't sound like prison bitches being raped like Robert Plant often does (Zep's manliest songs are "Immigrant Song" and "Achilles Last Stand"). I don't like Yngwie's blow-your-wad-in-every-song style at all. When I was immature & just a high school kid I did, but not anymore. Uli Jon Roth though is a great player that I can still listen to 30 years later. He is the real master of the neo-classical heavy metal guitar, not Yngwie.

[@shooooota]

more please

[@razorman916]

You gotta love Yngwie

[@bluestate69]

ian gillan is so fucking cool!

[@ANTONIOIVAN-zh4fw]

Ian gilllan la voce dell hard rock e del rock in generale

[@sinbysin666]

@wizalkat Ian Gillan is the man!

[@tedcabana]

Joe Satriani and Steve Morse are two phenominal guitarists with their own unique style. But I never though they realy gelled with the Deep Purple sound. I think Ymgwie would have been the best replacement. But his excuse was that he couldnt imagine DP without Blackmore. And I totaly agree. But I still think Yngwie would have been the best choice. And that realy would have saved the band.

[@chrisslooter2825]

If he played like he did in the Alcatrazz era it would have been incredible. He was a bit reserved back then - and I like that era of Yngwie.

[@shooooota]

hey dirdami thanks alot for this material!!! do you have any more? please post it even if it's swedish only!

[@magnuszetterqvist5936]

Gillan is hilarious 👍😘🇸🇪

[@gillanssi]

Yngwie is so full of his self, instead Gillan is so friendly and down to eart-Gillan is my hero1

[@НатальяПивоварова-щ8ш]

И от Луны и до Британских морей Йен Гиллан впереди планеты всей!😆😆😆

[@carolynwaltz7061]

gillan dont do drugs--hes a drinker-he was still really hot in 1990

[@shredsixsixsix9218]

L O Fing Ls Look closely at this video Gillan is Monster Trucking through the night with the floodlights on high blazing through the woodlands ,wahhhhhh. The ball of confusion in his head is about to explode.This is exactly why you shouldn't do cocaine!!!Have some more Cheddar Yngwie !!!!

[@metamorphosis67]

+carolyn waltz Alcohol is maybe the worst drug of all. That's why it's legal everywhere. Because the people in power want the general public to kill themselves in a puddle of their own piss and vomit which is what most alcoholics turn into. They also kill other people and themselves in drunk-driving car accidents. The only good thing about alcohol is that it's socially acceptable in Jew-on-a-stick-worshipping countries & people can kill themselves openly in front of their families without too much complaint. What most brainwashed morons out there don't know is that heroin and morphine are actually safer and less damaging than heavy alcohol use as long as you know the exact quality & strength of dose you're getting from a doctor. Unfortunately since it's illegal, addicts have to go risk getting a hot-dose that makes them overdose & die from slimy street dealers. Crystal Meth is pretty bad for you but, bizarrely enough, I've personally seen it cure some schizophrenics and bipolar people overnight. It usually tends to turn them into obnoxious assholes, but it does cure them from the bipolar symptoms as well as the legal drugs which also have terrible side effects.

[@shredsixsixsix9218]

metamorphosis67 You are absolutely right . I have been alcohol free for over 4 years . Nutrition has a lot to do with it .I started out with a high tolerance ,then i needed cocaine to keep me drinking all night .Eventually my nerves were shot and i had to cut it out .It took about 20 years to realize . I read a book called "Sober and Staying that way" sometimes i get stressed and want to be an addict again .But i can 't ,everyone will know ,and i will get my ass kicked

[@shredsixsixsix9218]

Slimm Jimm If that's what you think ,good for YOu

[@shredsixsixsix9218]

Yng is jacked to the moon ,which was normal for him back then

[@yacoloco2009]

[@thegoldendustarchive]

Great video. I have a master at the front (ditch) of the Stockholm gig amnd some backstage. I have also seen some other angles which I'm trying to locate. Would be nice to do a mix of it all. Any chance to get hold of the Stockholm live material? Please, keep in touch. Also have a look at my channel. Cheers!

[@mv9787]

Yngwie is spot on. Swedish are like that.

[@Mxyaguitar5150]

On stage Yngwie is all classical, but backstage Yngwie is all rock and roll if you know what I mean!

[@MelodyGuitar]

Awesome

[@BrianAuer]

1:15 Wtf?

[@seano2147]

Yeah jesus

[@michaelfrazia4569]

gillan one of the singers who smoked

[@angelinarodriguesdasilva2121]

adoraria saber o que eles estao falando.

[@Guitarspeedsecret]

Funny, funny stuff. I appreciate the honesty.............and the drunkenness.

[@hazor777]

Who is Ian Gillan mocking when he does the stuttering routine ...?

[@delandreese]

hazor777 Graham Bonnet as far as I'm aware. Not a good thing IMO.

[@westerling8436]

your brother?

[@fmanarin]

@@delandreese Pretty sure he said "Greyhound", not "Graham".

[@jasonriddick5876]

Oh, and Yngwie doesn't use Blackmore's stratocaster FYI

[@buddahmaster]

yngwie was young. yes he is kinda lame here. but the amount of influence and music he brought to guitar gives him the right to do whatever he likes. and if he feels like making a fool of himself well thats fine with me, he has enough credibility to do what he likes.

[@grobbler1]

Ian was cringing inside when he had to interact with Yngwie, but was too professional and polite to show it.

[@MrManKnowsBest]

That's not true. Malmsteen is strongly influenced by classical music, not other guitarists, but he does like some guitar players, but that's not the same as being influenced by them.

[@jazztom86]

he is deep purple, and he proved it... deep purple can't work without him, but they can if you take away any other member... they can work without blackmore, morse, glover, lord or airey... maybe they can work even without pace... but not without gillan.

[@kennethmoh9042]

Well, I think mark three was good too. Turner wasn't too bad either. Evans also good.

[@kurtsherrick2066]

Have you ever heard the Burn Album? I am a huge Mark ll fan but damn Burn was a bad ass record.

[@kurtsherrick2066]

​@Kenneth Moh You bet Kenneth. The Burn Album was bad ass.

[@blahdeblah1975]

Wow two masters. Ian is deep, though. 13 eggs.

[@nazzare79]

a collaboration in that year could have been fabolous...particulary if you listen the great 'screming' album 'toolbox'...with a guitarist like malmsteen it could have been a success..

[@rafro007]

For the record and to settle these silly arguments from the ignorant dumbasses who don't read any kind of literature between video games and MTV, I heard Rising Force the year it was released, and in subsequent interviews in various guitar mags, Yngwie always mentions Blackmore as an influence. Always. For years, every time he was asked: Blackmore and Paganini. There's no second guessing or debate; it was Blackmore and Paganini, the 18th century violin virtuoso. And I saw Gillan rubbing his nose, but I doubt he did any lines, and if he did, it was very, very rare and probably never, but this may have been an exception. He had great willpower to maintain his range all those years, and smoking and drinking are not a benefit by any means to vocal longevity. Natural, God-given talent.

[@metamorphosis67]

+rafro007 What are you talking about? Everybody knows Gillan had a heavy drinking problem for most of his life and only a few years ago got sober. And if you think he was a "god given" talent only, you haven't heard how shitty his pre-Deep-Purple bands were. Nope, he had good singing teachers and he worked hard to become the Gillan of 1969 who joined Purple and then was lead in Jesus Christ Superstar. That's why he knows exactly how to sing to not damage his voice.

[@Martsapso21]

​@@metamorphosis67 No one taught him how to sing, he did work hard, but lots of people work even harder and get nowhere because they don't have enough talent. And Mr. Universe from 1968 isn't exactly my definition of shitty, especially when it comes to Ian's vocals.

[@NisseEricsson]

Change name of this video to God with God. These guys are so mighty.

[@jadepayne5447]

Malmsteen is my cousin and he is my best friend

[@Daggy-z1d]

Right

[@kranen1]

He´s a guitar god :)

[@xRisingForcex]

i cannot stop laughing at this- interviewer: what are you doing now, after the concert? gillan: uhm.. well.. havin a.. havin a.. first drink of the day really.. with with with um.. uhh umm.. this uh um.. with this gentleman here.. this this this local, local um, uhb, come back on holiday his family from he just lives in a, no, right now but is a lot in england but maybe we are from.. not here.

[@JurgenKrace]

Why he stutters?

[@AnneElinHebnes-g6y]

Ian is so funny!

[@ВалентинЛузин-ч6е]

Шведский вундеркинд Ингви ! Подошел бы Дип Перпл после ухода Ритчи , лучше всех. Техника во многом схожая с Блэкмором .Но еще один Нарцисс , после проблем с Ритчи , не устроил бы их.

[@ольгак-е7м]

Их устроил никакущий, но беспроблемный Морс(

[@johnmiller9219]

does Ian stutter or was that an act?

[@hawkwind8468]

what the !!!?this is really strange

[@jasonriddick5876]

It appears that you're the upset kid. Let's go over this: Malmsteen plays with scalloped neck (loads of people do) Yngwie plays a Fender Strat (yeah those rare guitars) Yngwie covers Blackmore songs (loads of people have) Yngwie wears the same clothes as Blackmore (loads of people do, Blackmore wasn't the first) Jet to Jet sounds similar to Spotlight Kid(yeah it's a riff in B that uses parallel fourths) Yngwie's not a clone; you're pointing out similarities that he has. Topic closed

[@78GoldCoast]

OMG I think that stuttttttter is on purpose, Ian is having this guy on! Yeah?????

[@DarkLouk]

1:08 With..amm..this.. (who's this guy sitting on my couch?) 1:14 - 1:23 Total information exposure! Gillan rules! With only one drink he can elude the questions of the journalist...

[@blackers0665]

Ian can't stand Yngwie and you can clearly see it. Gillan (although he would not admit it) he is a big fan of Blackmore's playing, he always said that Ritchie is his hero and is that why he can't stand Yngwie, because Ian know that Yngwie is a child with more ego than talent... because Yngwie has more technique than talent. Yngwie thinks that he is God and he never took inspiration from anyone etc. In spite Ritchie and Ian hate relationship, they respect each other and Ian being a Ritchie fan, he hates the copycat... who is sitting next to him in the couch. Ian can be nasty sometimes but in this case, he is being fair.

[@forestghost7]

Ian Gillan SMOKED???? OMG wats his voice like now :(

[@rodolfolaterza]

A lot...his great problem during decades

[@pa2camp]

He is defenately not Deep Purple. Deep purple is the soul creation of blackmore with Jon Lord.they are the founding fathers. Blackmore has probably written the best material the bands played, mature professional rock, and they thought it to no one.Its not Pace its paice.

[@kaligula11]

of course that's true. but yngwie will always be the second, although he's a fantastic player

[@lunarmodule9915]

6:28 LOL! The 13 eggs for breakfast was worth the whole boring interview.

[@kadeee1000]

So why didnt Yngwie replace Blackmore in Purple.???,he would have been perfect.

[@CoolKwstas123]

look how Yngwie look at the ciggarette at 6:12 hahaha :P

[@TheCLOUDFORCE]

I dream at night of deep with yngwie on guitar. He would have been perfect. Much more than the amzing satch or morse

[@forestghost7]

he's in miami shores now yeah I remember the arrest 8-1-93 I met him that yr 'cuz my best friend was his ferrari mechanic. lol Yngwie respects me 'cuz I play guitar so diffrent from him - not everyone needs to be a shredder; I'm into atmospheres like the Edge or Steve Hackett

[@andreavgr]

why has gillan difficulty to speak after the first minutes?? does he have dyslexia?

[@BaptizedinFire]

Some hardcore Swenglish there from the interviewer... "Singers usually sing up before concerts, but you're singing down now". Gillan: "...wtf". Embarrasing :P

[@hectorgonzalez9170]

The only thing wrong with Ian is that he can't get along with Blackmore. The only thing wrong with Yngwie is that he thinks he's God and doesn't like anybody.

[@atteljas]

Its funny to see Ian being such a laid back man and keeps his feet on the ground where as Yngwie looks and talks like moron. But it was different time.
