[@patpolowyk6434]

One of the best vocalist that malmsteen ever had.i still play Trilogy today.

[@streamofconsciousness5826]

Him and Jeff sound so different yet they both work, I remember when Trilogy came out and was shocked at the difference in vocalists, but his voice works so well with those songs, and to discredit my original statement about being different, when they do each other's songs it's not exactly the same but it's pretty damn close, either one of them could have sang on any of the albums. There is a video of one of them doing Rising Force which Joe sang on Odyssey and it still works. &0 year old rock stars are not uncommon any more, Yngwie should get them both for a "Three Albums Tour". It's kind of sad watching him wail to a disinterested crowd waiting for White Lion or Gretta Van Fleet.

[@thomassblaquelourde5930]

A now departed friend knew him fairly well said he really is a really nice guy- I don't why he isnt more of a "star". I saw Trilogy tour opening for Dio. A friend said reminded him of young Ian Gillan. His performance was flawless. Not putting aside JLT, or JSS both singer's singers. I don't care who or what without a terrific singer ... what?

SPECIAL NOTE: I have never monetized by channel (up since May 2007). You can verify that with You Tube. I never monetized my channel because I wanted zero trouble from a legal standpoint (THAT is when moral issues, copyright laws, etcetera come into sharp focus). So I PAID for these videos but I have made not one dime from them...as it should be. I am merely a humble fan wishing to help promote these great artists WITH NO STRINGS ATTACHED WHATSOEVER. Just a true, from-the-heart fan here.

You're lucky! I saw Yngwie on 7/9/85 and in September 1985 but not at that epic show

[@vincentgarzoli3197]

@@VincePalamarasecretservicejfk Father's Day 1985 (I think June 16th was the calendar date) at the San Jose (California) Civic Center was perhaps more amazing for Yngwie fans....Talas was the opener just before Billy Sheehan joined David Lee Roth and while Mitch Perry was playing guitar. Rising Force headlined. It was the very first time I had seen Yngwie live having only heard audio recordings from the demo tape he had sent Mike Varney thru Steeler and Alcatrazz to Rising Force and Marching Out and he far, far, far exceeded my expectations. Sheehan was absolutely mindblowing, and Yngwie was even more otherworldly that night! The marriage of musicianship did showmanship YJM exhibited that night still gives me chills. That may have been one of the last 2 or 3 gigs JSS played with Rising Force in California.

[@rhiannoniversen5715]

Day on the Green 1985 at Oakland Coloseum also included a German band called Victory. Never heard anything about them after that but they were fairly well received by the crowd and did a nice job opening.

I was there! I was in the Army stationed at Ft. Ord in Monterey and an Army buddy of mine was from Petaluma and he invited me to his parent’s home to stay a few days...got to know his sister and we just hit off because we were both hard rock/metalheads...she was going to Day on the Green and got me a ticket and I remember it was a hot but awesome day out and the bands were just amazing…it was me, my friend's sister and her 3 gorgeous girlfriends and they all thought it was cool that I was a metalhead from Detroit and in the Army...after the concert, we got a hotel room and yeah, it was pretty awesome!

[@FazSaber]

I'd highly recommend the Royal Hunt album 'X' which features Mark Boals. Incredible album

[@tolgaguven3467]

If I were a newcomer to Royal Hunt's music (I am a Royal Hunt fan...) and if "X" were the first album I had listened to by Royal Hunt, I probably would not have bothered listening to anything else by Royal Hunt. Boals is great (as always) on that album, but songwriting is not. The first Royal Hunt album containing Boals is Collision Course...Paradox II, which is not only arguably a much better album, but also one of Royal Hunt's finest works. It is a masterpiece (it is a concept album...) and Boals is at the top his game there. "X" was some kind of a sound experiment for the band; they tried to create a different vibe by using vintage instruments.

[@jacksabbath7986]

I love your voice on the Joshua Band album Resurrection. Your voice is especially awesome on that album because the songs are so melodic & feature you instead of endless & boring guitar solo's by the fatheaded Ying Yang. I will never understand how Malmsteen ever got a record deal with his ongoing shlock just boring the hell out of us all. All our best brother.

[@zachmacrockproductionsinc.9902]

[@wattage2007]

Decent sounding dude, and an absolutely killer vocalist.

[@Scott__C]

I still think Yngwie was his best when people collaborated with him for songs. The early instrumental stuff he did great. And no disrespect to Mark, he's a fabulous singer, but I think the album with Joe Lynn Turner was Yngwie's best. Shredding from all, great riffs and songs and Joe had some investment in the songs.

[@mv9787]

I agree. I like Odyssey and Fire & Ice. Mark Boals was/is the most skilled vocalist Yngwie ever had.

[@freaker126]

mark boals sound like a nice guy. even though, he didn't get much recognition. I'll say, he's one of the best singer that ngnwie had.

[@chrismichaels6928]

Very genuine guy ..

[@chrismichaels6928]

I’m 48 , loved blues and jazz in high school and love jazz now more than anything. All my metal head friends in high school didn’t get it and mocked it but I was fine with that. To me , most of their music was shit and still is. Don’t get me wrong , there was certainly lots of talent in the genre. I always thought Edward Van Halen was a true innovator. But I must tell the truth - I loved Yngwie Malmsteen a lot. He kind of overplayed too often and note crammed but he had a beautiful feel and I loved how he incorporated blues into his whole neoclassical thing - it was profoundly unique and original and inspiring. I go back and listen to the solo in “ You Don’t Remember I’ll Never Forget”. It’s fucking great.. it’s like mystical.. he’s screaming - playing his ass off, really soulful. His legacy is sort of comical and tragic - people love him or hate him.. anyway .. just my stream of consciousness ...

Yngwie greatest talent was never the fast scale ... it was finding the greatest singers of all time. He spoiled himself and his guitar fans with that much talent.

[@zackphelps7859]

I am going to be honest, I am a huge Yngwie fan, but I took a bunch of friends to see him at a local venue on a tour he did with Uli, Gary Hoey, and Bumblefoot, and he treated his band so poorly: the band was all the way off to stage right, out of the spotlight (the bass player was actually standing off stage, and had to walk up to a mike to call Yngwie the Maestro, it was pathetic) and Yngwie had the entire stage to himself, although he did not utilize the whole stage, so what was the point, and of course he never introduced a very talented band at all, so the whole show really turned off a lot of fans, so we are finished watching him live. Now that he is doing the vocals, and he cannot sing well, I guess I will be done buying his new music as well. Sad, I really like him, but his ego has gotten in the way of his music.
