Guitarist Reacts to YNGWIE MALMSTEEN - Black Star

[@garygkc21]

Yngwie is the nikoli tesla of his time.appreciate this genious while he lives and breathes on this earth.ignore the haters.

[@AudiophileTubes]

Yngwie is a guitar genius and legend, who pushed the envelope! I had the privelege of seeing him live at L'Amour Rock Club (Brooklyn, NY), way back in the early 80's in support of his 'Rising Force' release, and collective jaws dropped! Everyone walked out of there realizing that they just witnessed rock history!

[@andrehughes1]

The most devastation we will ever experience in a live guitar performance. Yngwie, in his most iconic show of all time. The best guitarist of the last half century.

[@marinamarchese6748]

[@alsimms8003]

the man is unstoppable. i have enjoyed his vast body of work through his numerous bouts with arthritis of the hands and a serious car crash which rendered him unable to play but he keeps coming back. Marching out is his best work

[@troyalcorn1184]

I only have 1 wish for Yngwie. I wish for Yngwie to find and accept his "inner" peace. I love his passion and skills and his knowledge of historical music. What I want or like or love doesn't really matter because I am not Yngwie. I will make my way and enjoy life as I am allowed in my life, but I wish he would also find a way for him to find happiness in his own life. I will always enjoy neoclassical music. I love Yngwie music. I wish Yngwie appreciated Yngwie without the need for him to constantly prove he is worthy. Less is more sometimes and he needs to feel and learn this. I do hope he finds his happiness.

[@machinesPawn]

So wrong, so wrong... You guys need to accept his relationship with guitar, its special for everybody and different, too! He dont need to prove nothing he pushes limit he can he do, he plays that guitar from the guts and he knows his limits he is musician not sportist!!

[@joealvarez8733]

"Do you even know him personally?" That's the question I have for you 🤪... crazy how people think they know what they are talking about when they are so effing clueless... pisses me off... Yngwie is the Great one

[@ghassenhamden148]

if you want more " normal " songs of yngwie ... he has a lot of great non instumentals ... check out "i am a viking " ... "dreaming me" .."save our love" "rising force " " you dont remember ill never forget" "disciples of hell "

[@lorifranke9995]

"You don't remember" is a great tune for rolling 100mph down these long Texas roads

[@bayurahmadi7754]

Normal album " eclipse,magnum opus,marching out" this album like rock ballads

[@michaeljustice124]

I love watching Yngwie reaction videos by actual guitar players. With that acoustic intro the eyes always glaze over followed by a blank look on the face as your mind try’s to process what your hearing and seeing! Don’t dwell on it brother, like the rest of us you’ll never fully comprehend it!

[@markr.devereux2713]

One album for best listening and contains all his bag of tricks is ECLIPSE(1990) Man his lead solos are on fire

[@xeleelex146]

song motherless child is my favorite

[@zombiemachinery4868]

I love that record man.

[@markr.devereux2713]

@@zombiemachinery4868 a shout out to you sir. People overlook that and ODYSSEY with joe Lynn Turner which is solid. U know all this talk of eddie van halen is a little overhyped. What yngwie brought to the world of guitar is a game change also. He was the only guy there for awhile. He might be a little insane in his personal life I dont know. But Eclipse is awesome. Cant touch that..m.

[@zombiemachinery4868]

@@markr.devereux2713, Hendrix, EVH and Yngwie in that same order were the ultimate game changers, nothing comes close in that matter even if you don't like them.

[@markr.devereux2713]

@@zombiemachinery4868 hendrix best guitarist icon of the whole 60s. Jimi at woodstock like a mad scientist creating new age of aquarius SPANGLED banner. The look the creativity the magnetism . It's a little beyond understanding. Also wrote lyrics. basslines lead vocals incredible tracks with real beauty soundscapes. Vibrato arm mastery feedback effects just a class act. Best songs ever created. Not JUMP or poundcake etc. So hendrix before EVH. NOW YNGWIE MALMSTEEN I985 1992 Different time frame overlapped van halen a little but basically ruled the neoclassical world single handed. No brother on drums no david lee roth nobody helping too much. Had to take metal as far as it did((Ulrich ROTH honorable mention). He is the last game changer and he is not rightly acknowledged. He's got the bag of tricks .necessary. I wish there was a place for SCHENKER and UFO. Best hard rock solos hall of fame stuff. Mslmsteen degree if difficulty exceeds all of the above. Hendrix mslmsteen evh

[@MrAxe-ij4gq]

Yngwie for ever - love from Sweden !!!

[@xeleelex146]

greetings, as an american i am curious, is he well known and respected in his homeland?

[@mix6809]

great reaction. he is amazing, he is silly, he is a genius, he is obnoxious. proud to call him a fellow countryman

[@MICKEYISLOWD]

His Obnoxious is all tongue in cheek. I have met Yngwie a few times and we just laughed at his ''off' ways and he always grinned ay t us and opened up in conversation. He was interested in 'us' and wanted to know what we were doing. All the haters fell for his JOKE and still to this day they don't get it. Yngwie in his prime Yngwie scared the shit out of other guitar players! He was king!!!

[@kraftwerk974]

When this came out I was a teenager, and it blew everything away. Suddenly every single guitarist needed to play like him. The same happened with EVH and JH before. One of the 3 most important rock guitarists of all times like it or not. This is pure fact.

[@sllk4104]

I love your reaction bro .. i always come back to it

[@mitchfortson8413]

One of my favorites, check out the song called ,Cry no more . Great solo...Awesome

[@Ashlardark420]

Got to see yngwie live for both his first 2 albums.. Such awesome shows.

[@DeTeK-Dennis]

There's over 30 official studio records and +100 official released songs with him, so you got a whole lot more you can listen to.

[@ragnarokcss]

you need to hear this song in a studio version. this version have lot o improvisation. yngwie have a lot a different type of song. i recommend the early disc. Marching Out have good song like "I'll See the Light, Tonight" , "Don't Let It End", "Disciples of Hell", "I Am a Viking". or from The seven sigh album «Brothers» (instrumental), «Seventh Sign», «Prisoner of Your Love»,«Crash and Burn».

[@jasonwilliams6005]

Some people say he's not a great guitarist and he's all speed and no feel. I say that's because they can't do what he does😁

[@michaelmelick8015]

He can't be wrong , music is subjective, it's all about it being your opinion and personal music taste. Pretty much the definition lol

[@xeleelex146]

brothers, crying, his solos on i am a viking, you,dont remember,air on g string and many other touching pieces demonstrate otherwise

[@Vermiliontea]

This is a great song. The reason you don't "feel" it, is you haven't listened in it yet.

[@randycomerford2038]

I love his playing. He looks like Blackie Lawless playing guitar lol

[@NoirHammer]

I know how I reacted when I first heard Yngwie, "Uh, wtf was that!" and then proceeded to buy the record at my local Record World. Few months later I had the jean jacket with the cover of the first Rising Force album on it.

Best version of this song, ever. Oh, and if that's a pc, or laptop you're using, are you sure it's not filled with spyware/viruses? That video had serious lag.

[@MICKEYISLOWD]

Yngwie has written dozens of great songs. You need to start from the beginning with his first albums 'Rising Force' 'Marching Out' 'Trilogy' 'Odyssey' ect because there is some utterly stunning moments in there. 'll see the light' solo blew everyone mind at the time and nobody could play it until the internet came along.

[@michaelmelick8015]

He invented neo classical

[@matthewarms3786]

I"m a big fan of YJM, but that's a bit of a stretch. He certainly popularized the hell out of it in the immediate post Randy Rhoads world, but Blizzard of Ozz hit before Varney brought Yngwie over for Steeler, and Blackmore was exploring some similar ideas on the first 2 Rainbow albums in '76-'78 and Uli Jon Roth likewise with the Scorpions on In Trance and Taken by Force. Granted, none went full balls to the wall neo-classical/romantic like Viking Kong, but the ideas/nucleus were there. Now, Yngwie's alternate picking in those early years were probably the best the hard rock/metal world had ever seen and while he does sweep more now, his right hand technique is still jaw-dropping.

[@xeleelex146]
