Seen him for the TRILOGY Tour in Long Beach, Ca and he was awesome. Though I was very disappointed that it was Jeff Scott Soto on vocals and not Mark Boals who I clearly wanted to see. By then, his tone shifted heavily away from what you probably heard, and from what I remember in his "Rising Force Live '85" in Tokyo where he still had that more "Stratty Duck-Tone" to the more "Violin-ney" tone he had for the Trilogy tour, but was still awesome.

The funny thing is that he CAN still get this tone back and play close to this if he would just slow it down a bit and use less of his overy saturated OD, and go back to Dimarzi pickups.. Yeah, he can never play exactly this way anymore, but he can get close to it imo.

Most of people forget that yngeoe had a major accident in the late 80’s where he almost died. So he had to reteach himself how to play guitar. I think since then, there is a delay between how he hears the music in head and what he can actually perform with his hands after the accident

@michael12 ай бұрын
@@IrishStorm440 Hardly. If you look at the so-called genre of neoclassical metal pretty much all the people cited as being part of it predated Malmsteen. Truth is, Yngwie didn't make his own music popular let alone anyone else. Not to mention that classical music predates Malmsteen by several hundred years and has been composed and played since that time until the modern day by significantly better and more influential musicians. If he ever had any talent briefly for a couple of years in the 80s, it was soon replaced by ego and noise - perhaps, as some have said because he couldn't drive as well as he thought either. Even people who try to ape his playing have little or no interest in his music - his most streamed song on Spotify is a cover of an Aerosmith song.

That was cool to see him tap across multiple strings because I always wondered why he didn’t do a little more of that. Yes he will do short bursts on one string but until this video I never saw him tap on more than 1 string. Man he really shined back then. Saw him at a club back in like 2017 or so and it was pretty cringy in many spots. He’s still one of my top inspirations that got me to want to learn guitar, but yeah his skills aren’t what they were here anymore.

Cool to be such a great player those days. Guitar is unfortunately becoming more and more irrelevant in todays music and it might very soon end up like classical piano playing. It used to be the sh.t but now it is only for a selected few instead of the masses like it used to be. I say all this as a guitarist myself. It kind of sucks but there is not really much to do about it. Got to live with the moment and follow the flow or drown trying to swim against the current. Playing guitar is still fun though and a being a musician is not only about being stubborn and traditional, but being open to expression through any instrument. Any instrument can be really fun and that includes more new instruments such as drum machines, chaos pads, dj mixing tables and the bunch of it. Great to be reminded of the past though and getting flashbacks with strong memories of the time when nearly all music had guitarists and consisted of bands playing instruments together. Good times. Malmesteen is a legend and is still a inspiration for both old and young guitar players. Nice video👍💯💯💯
@acajoom6 ай бұрын
Depends the perspective. If one looks for fast-food entertainment then anything is entertaining including trash. If one cares about what is trendy they are not looking for quality and this is fine (including metal kidos). Piano, violin and many other classical instruments will never die. Electric guitar was considered oldschool already since the 90s. Music is about expression and communication. Fake or trendy "stars" don't communicate anything other than their ego.
