YNGWIE MALMSTEEN - FAR BEYOND THE SUN | REACTION

EPIC PERFORMANCE!! THE ORCHESTRA WAS GREAT WOW!!
Here's the video link • Video

[@vovindequasahi]

I met Yngwie like ten years ago. He was sitting at the bar before the show, but was dressed in jeans and a jacket so nobody seemed to notice him. I did though. I sat next to him and ordered a beer, and said I loved his guitar playing and how he was one of the reasons that I started playing guitar. He bought me a Guiness, cause he said that's the only beer for us guitarists. Then we just basically sat there and drank our beer together. Before he left he said something though that I will never forget. He said in Swedish so I'm translating, "Dude practice at home, and never let them see you coming. See you at the show!" Just this really chill cool dude. I can see how media and crazy fucking fans make him go bonkers. He's just a man.

[@jackhamilton7906]

Cool :)

[@DonnHarpersWykkydAmbitions]

I met Ynvwie at a Dokken show in Ft Lauderdale ( 1991 i think, John Norum was in Dokken then.). I was star struck, shook his hand told him he was great.... He gave me a beer. " Thanks, you need a beer?"

[@claudemcclure2785]

awesome story dude. I would have shit my pants meeting him.

[@vovindequasahi]

@@DonnHarpersWykkydAmbitions Yeah that seems to be a staple, him buying you a beer if you just happen to sit down next to him and treat him like a human being. Was it Guinness though? ;-)

[@NS1.]

Dude I'd probably pay a thousand dollars if I could talk with him over a beer, for at least 10 minutes.

[@markmcstea5258]

I interviewed him a year ago and he was super friendly. One of the most influential guitarists of all time.

[@MadM1968]

Truly one of the greatest .

[@kirusmagnus317]

Yngwie is one of greatest musicians of all time.

[@chilesuicmez]

big words, out of 5? 10? 100?1000? but he should be in a top50 ever for sure.

[@kowxley1793]

Ehhhh. Not today no. He used to be incredible in his writing, but nowadays... not the same at all. Though I'd say he was in the top 100 greatest musicians of all time but 20+ years ago.

[@christiancibulka1886]

Kowxley more like 30+ years ago when he was on his a-game.

[@jfender8023]

perhaps a great rock guitarist, but could never keep up with a bebop jazz player .

[@phoenixmichaels]

@@jfender8023 NOT a great "rock guitarist" but a great neo classical guitarist. Of which "bebop Jazz" is a joke compared to. Like comparing Bach to Tiny Tim on the uke.

[@andrehughes1]

Yngwie showing what he always has. Whether on recording or live, he is a singular virtuoso guitar player without peer. He should go down in the books as one of the very greatest of all time.

[@kingkeltic4228]

The best guitarist ever in the history of Earth.

[@onlyfromadistance7326]

Yngwie changed my life. I listened to his first album when I was 18. I couldn't believe guitar music could be played like that. I reacted very similar to Mr Jamel. All my best to you and yours good sir...

[@seansullivan4709]

Same here! I listen to a lot of different instrumental, classical, heavily guitar based music. I love Randy Rhoads but Yngwie was able to put out far more material since he survived his crash. I can only imagine what a meeting between Randy and Yngwie would be like, just so musically oriented it would make your head spin. It's funny that he doesn't get radio airplay in America but he's been the king of guitarists for decades.

[@krisreddish3066]

Other guitarists have to hate on him a bit. No matter how good they get at sweep picking arpeggios his vibrato is flawless. As in unobtainable by mere mortals. Also, we all had that same look in our eyes the first time we heard him play. I do not care if you are Tosin Abbasi, Steve Via, or the guy at the corner store, everyone went slack-jawed and wide-eyed the first time they heard Yngwie.

[@tammycenter8757]

You are so right.

[@Simeon_Harris]

yes, thank you for mentioning his vibrato. everyone is so focused on his speed and the mechanics of what he does, but without that vibrato, it's all meaningless. there's so much fire and soul in his playing. i was around and listening to guitar music when he appeared and we just didn't know what hit us. yes, he's a one trick pony, but man, what a trick....and it's his trick...he invented it and changed everybody's perception as he did it. not many people can say they did that.

Having been lucky enough to meet and play guitar for Yngwie, I can honestly say that he is actually a friendly and personable guy. He is very passionate about his music and that can come off as abrasive sometimes

There’s plenty of Yngwie haters, but the man has fire in his playing, no doubt about it.

[@mr198221]

[@Lunatic4Bizcas]

Although I've heard about Yngwie for years, this is the first time that I've thoroughly watched one of his performances. I must say that his playing is unbelievable and majestic. Thanks Jamel/Jamal for sharing this reaction and for my first becoming familiar with Yngwie's music through your video reaction.

[@ghostscantkill]

I've listened to Yngwie since 1985. He was always a bit egotistical, but he always had the bragging rights to the top guitarist game.

[@chilesuicmez]

its like on sports, you need an asshole opening doors for future gens.

[@sky173]

Same here. I've been listening since '86 also. Back then, Yngwie was always on top for speed and style. No one else like him. Everyone should listen to the album version of this...

[@MatthewP-Gr]

1986 for me too. Huge fan! Even today (almost 50y.o.) i still have his albums on my playlist...

[@LOGAN77000]

Thank you Jamal, you rock ! Stéphane from France, huge fan of Yngwie for the last 25 years 🤘😎👍

[@raycolon3696]

The negative feedback that Yngwie's gotten over the years was never really about his playing style-it was about his personality; how he got along with people. It's been said, for quite some time, that he was very arrogant and not friendly at all. Apparently that was indeed the case from his own testimony in his biography. But it was fueled by a lot of crap he had to deal with (managers, ex-wife, record companies stealing from him and not allowing him to produce his music the way he wanted to). He went bankrupt twice because of corporate theft which motivated him even more to become independent. Long story short-he's much more humble today than ever before. Unfortunately, the caliber of his music has gone down tremendously over recent years; production, song arrangements, writing... just utter trash today. I couldn't even get through his latest album, Blue Lighting, before hitting stop and I haven't gotten back to it since March 2019. Listen, no king rules forever but props go where they're due. He broke down musical barriers and paved the road for Neo-Classical Rock guitar. Not one headbanger knew what was an arpeggio before Malmsteen ascended the throne. He changed the game much like Edward Van Halen did before him, and Jimi Hendrix before him. There have been many legendary guitarists in between who "played" the game exceptionally well, but they didn't "CHANGE" it. Yngwie's one of those few. Love the channel! Peace.

[@Jar0fMay0]

Often imitated, never duplicated

[@johnnyjackson7897]

Ray colon you took the exact words from my mouth .. well said my fine sir

[@MonkShadow]

What most don't realize as well, is that while most kids were out learning how to socialize with each other, he was inside sitting by his Sister mimicking with his guitar what She was playing for her Classical studies on the piano. He is a True Virtuoso!

[@BigMikeBLFC]

Very true words I tried to listen to blue lightning but just couldn't get through it some of those songs are classic blues song and in my opinion he destroyed them. His music has been trash for quite some time now

[@chilesuicmez]

i would change the tag ''Neo-classical-rock'' wich is spot on, to shred, no shredder would be doing them thing if not for malmsteen, we got glances at blackmore, hendrix and van halen, but shred comes directly from mr malsmsteen.

[@jamesparker9043]

He always was and is an absolute beast on guitar. In the broader style of general shredding, nobody can touch him. In his particular style, he is one.

[@matthansen758]

Dokken - Mr. Scary (Live - Japan 1988). George Lynch is one of my favorite guitarists.

[@Easy_Skanking]

Mine, too. His other projects Lynch Mob and KXM are also excellent for different reasons.

[@Gibbiceps2008]

First Jamel thank you so much for your videos. Its a perfect size now.. and sound on the artists you show. Its easy to see and hear both them and you. Im Swedish like Ynwie.. and started listening to him in 1981 or so... "Malmsteen was born Lars Johan Yngve Lannerbäck in Stockholm, Sweden, the third child of a musical family.[2][3] At the age of ten Malmsteen created his first band, Track on Earth, consisting of himself and a friend from school playing the drums. At the age of twelve he took his mother's maiden name Malmsten as his surname, then slightly changed it to Malmsteen and altered his third given name Yngve to "Yngwie".[4] As a teenager he was heavily influenced by classical music, particularly 19th century Italian virtuoso violinist and composer Niccolò Paganini, as well as Johann Sebastian Bach, a German multi-instrumentalist and composer of the 18th century.[5] During this time, he also discovered his most important guitar influence, Ritchie Blackmore."

[@FriesinNF]

Bach, Schubert, Mozart, Malmsteen, Paganini, Beethoven, . . . . . All genious!

[@mejsjalv]

"How can less be more? That's impossible! More is more!" - Yngwie Malmsteen It really took him a while to record with an orchestra. Seems like he's having a lot of fun. For long time fans, it was pretty much the same stuff but with an orchestra. But for people who have never listened to him before, this would be a good introduction.

[@TheBorderRyker]

The Maestro. The truly incredible Yngwie Malmsteen. I saw him play live in Edinburgh back in the Eighties and he blew my mind.

[@Twistedstar0320]

For many years I never gave him a chance, I even saw him in concert when I was young and didn't even care he was playing. These days I'm in awe of him. All the hate he gets is based off of jealousy. This man is probably the world's best guitarist. He may not play the style you like but you better be dammed sure he can play your favorite style.

[@Cayres9]

But Jason Becker at high school was playing all Yngwies stuff 👍🎸 just sad Jason got ALS

[@johncook2913]

Dude. You missed his guitar swing at 11:01 You looked away just for a second and missed it.

[@richardmarvin3867]

A good first time reaction. I've heard people tell me the same thing but you nailed it he does have personally and you nailed it good job.

For me it was a plastic cutout record in Guitar Player Magazine with "Black Star" on it in Mike Varney's Spotlight column. I cut it out, dropped it into my record player and did the face you reference. It was game over for me after that. Next up was to go to our town specialty record store and order the Steeler import at a huge cost. My jaw was on the floor.

[@alexrios2112]

The last time I saw Yngwie live was this past May of 22'. There was a girl next to me who said it was her first time hearing him. Hearing and seeing him for the first time, that is insane. She had tears in her eyes hearing him play. Yngwie has Taurus pedals that when he played them with his foot, the girl was literally shrieking. Hope you catch him live Jamal.

[@TheAgentAssassin]

Make no mistake , Yngwie changed how we looked at the guitar. When he hit the scene early 80s. NOBODY played like him. He's a very funny and sarcastic person when you meet him I think he's funny as hell but most people misunderstand his humor and think he's a douche bag. He's actually really a good guy. Some folks just don't get sarcasm anymore.

[@louf7178]

Yes, he's like "you surely can't touch this, and I know it". I find the over-confidence, arrogance and ego humorous and entertaining at this point of his life.

[@SonicProfessor_a.k.a._T._Andra]

If someone is ALWAYS sarcastic (or must be "assumed to be"-??) then nothing they say can be taken seriously, which leads to: actual communication becoming an impossibility. -there's such a thing as: "too much" of ANYthing and EVERYthing. ...Also: "not being at fault because" someone is, literally, "making it impossible>" Just saying. {Also, yes: Yngwie has changed over the years, too. ... - which is a good thing.

[@TheAgentAssassin]

@@SonicProfessor_a.k.a._T._Andra I heard rumors in the early 80s he was a douche-bag and I've scoured youtube videos of him (old and new) never finding one single video of him being this jerk the rumors talked about. The video evidence just doesn't support the rumors from the 80s. In fact I found most videos of him being enthusiastic to teach other players about his style or licks.

The G.O.A.T!!! Saw him in 85. I had been playing for 7 years and I would go to the Charlotte Coliseum with my binoculars to learn everybody's tricks. Yngwie made me put the specs down and just enjoy his masterful playing style. My Son met him when we went to a NAMM show in Anaheim. Totally classy guy. Spoke with Jr. like they were friends. My Son was just 18 and gave Yngwie one of his CD's. He said thank you very much and said not many people give him their original music. We saw him again last year and he is just as amazing as always.

[@JAMESMOORE-gq4vv]

I like his personality, straight forward.

[@corvette4evr]

You can say anything you want about the man he is but his passion for playing has never been subdued. He has an amazing amount of flair and although legato it is still truly incredible what he is able to coax out of the instrument. As far as guitar players go he has innovated and produces a sound and style all his own in modern music. Stop hating and just listen, he has some but not many parallels. I have seen him live and it is for certain an experience you will not forget. Stop trying to overanalyze his playing or personality and just listen to the something wonderful that he is. I have been playing for over 20yrs+ and cannot do half of what he does. Not saying it is impossible but you should find it impressive on some level or another. Be positive in your critique and understanding no matter how advanced you are at either the instrument or music, please.

[@isaiahneilguitaristofficia549]

There is no way anyone can say Yngwie doesn’t have soul or feel, his vibrato is fantastic, and timing is perfect,he wrote that music, and it’s fantastic, you might not like it, you can’t deny that it is incredible music.

[@mdexperience2011]

So glad Ive had the opportunity to see him live. Amazing!!

[@12floz67]

I’ve been listening to yngwie since he was in alcatrazz. People think he’s cocky but really he was just extremely confident. A lot of pissed off jealous guitar players at the time. Most who say he plays with no feel can’t play his stuff.

[@abidababida7096]

This is Yngwie’s comfort zone. He was trained in classical music and that is his first love. Becoming a rock guitarist was inevitable due to his talent but he’s a Mozart Vivaldi Beethoven head!

[@robertmaloney2198]

Yes, he's that good!!

[@spazimdam]

Yes great reaction dude! Aside from his incredible fretwork, the most amazing thing to me about Yngwie is his scalloped fretboards. The fretboard is actually scalloped out between the frets so that the slightest extra pressure from his fingers will result in a note that is sharp. He does not have the benefit of perfect pitch that comes from a standard fretboard. He must apply just the right amount of finger pressure to get those notes on pitch. His control, his intonation is unparalleled. Too much man, just too fucking much. Ynwie fucking Malmsteen, that's who.

I don't know how I missed you putting this up. It just popped up for me today. When Yngwie debuted I was learning to play keyboard and drums but wished soooooo much I could play guitar. A couple of friends told me that a kid our age was burning up the scene. They introduced me to Steeler and Alcatrazz, two bands Yngwie stole the show in at just 15-17 years old. I fell in love with his guitar playing that day. Here it is almost 40 years later and I still love his music. When someone tells me they think he plays without feeling I just point them to Serenade by Steeler, Kree Nakoorie from Alcatrazz or the title track from Yngwie Malmsteen's Rising Force's CD Dragonfly. They're some of the pieces you can hear his talent's range in and in the performances from back in the day it's obvious how much love he had for playing/performing.

🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 I'll see the light tonight was the first yngwie song I ever learned.

[@njineermike]

@@jimshort9266 there's a video with another singer just trying to hang on pulling off Soto's vocals. Soto is a god.

[@roygarrett1663]

I've watched him since he came over from Sweden and started with the band Steeler, then Alcatraz and on to Rising Force til he went with his own name. His Auto-biography was a great read. I've read it several times. Thanks for the reviews of Yngwie. Much appreciated.

[@m.ericwatson968]

Ynywie is cool, he's a cocky guy, sure, but that's understandable considering his playing, he's so quick and clean it's ridiculous haha

[@Thiago_Alves_Souza]

That's not why he's cocky. He dealt with a lot of shit in his personal and professional life. Not an excuse of course but I think it's his defense mechanism.

[@speedmetall]

Great artist (have a picture with him and me) and great reaction. Keep it up buddy!

[@1607josh]

Try you don't remember I'll never forget. By yngwie

[@mendyclarke2650]

My stepbrother (and best friend) died 30 years ago. He ADORED Yngwie and is the one who introduced me to him. Thanks for doing this! Brings back wonderful memories. 💜

[@matthewayres1641]

I would like to see your reaction to Unleash The Archers - Awakening

[@hawkproductions3853]

Already done

[@noe0073]

brah he's a master ..... forever

[@tritonusseitan6601]

People who say "Yngwie has no emotion" are usually guitar players who don't practice.

[@Rhunyen]

Musically Yngwie is awesome.

[@yeahwhatever5436]

Pleased to see you doing Malmsteen. Hardly anybody reacts to him. I've been through your library and did not see any Judas Priest, the METAL GODS or DIO (Ronnie James Dio, Rainbow, Black Sabbath & solo). A decade later and we all still sadly miss him deeply RIP RJD. Judas Priest - Painkiller. The ultimate heavy metal song. That's what metal is suppose to sound like. DIO - A Light In The Black, Don't Talk To Strangers, Heaven and Hell, Shame On The Night. Hell, anything related with Ronnie. Not Stargazer. Everybody reacts to fucken Stargazer.
