Yngwie Malmsteen Solo (Good Quality)

[@metalaenima]

Went to see Ted Nugent back in the day. Alcatraz was opening act. I'd never heard of them. I was six feet from Yngwie screaming for Ted Nugent, including some expletives. Yngwie looked down into the audience right at me and proceeded to rip a solo like the one in this video. My jaw hit the floor and I've been a huge fan ever since. One of the greatest!

[@chrispellegrini545]

Saw him twice that summer I believe 1984, same for me still a disciple today

[@paullarson267]

Best guitar player for his generation ! ❤

[@EricAndradeMusic]

I agree. The early 80s belonged to Malmsteen purely due to impact. He inspired an entire generation of guitarists. He had a great sound.

[@cardsjoker9239]

I like this era of Malmsteen. Classic strat/marshal sound -not ultra distorted. His Blackmore emulating days.

[@gfgranja]

His best era for sure

[@kennyplay4164]

Exactly said! I love that period too!👍

[@davidsoukup138]

Yes, I would say his best was before his coma but one thing I would disagree on is the Blackmore emulating. I would say that he emulated Blackmore in Alcatrazz (1984) but after that in this clip (1985) he is most emulating bach and classical music its self more.

[@Wolferal]

@@davidsoukup138 -- He does it here ,too. The black jacket with his bare chest and big cross, his hair, his strat tone, the way he uses his tremolo bar, his mannerisms and facial expressions and the way he moves his mouth, the way he swings his guitar around, the way he scrapes his strings with that hand-over-hand move move that he does, flipping his guitar string-side down and scraping his strat on the monitors, crouching down on one leg while the other leg is outstretched to the side, his brooding, stoic, tough guy who plays classically influenced leads and themes shtick - putting Bach pieces in the middle of his solos - that's all Blackmore.

[@IbanezDaemon]

@@Wolferal Post a Blackmore solo that sounds like Malmsteen then. Phrasing, speed, vibrato etc. Nobody cares about jackets and mannerisms.

[@77starblaster]

His legato back then was a thing of beauty.

[@llluuuyyyooo]

Indeed.

[@Valarien777]

As was his staccato, more articulate and precise.

[@malil3641]

Because now hes playing with higher distortion and reverb

[@joewalker511]

Why is it nobody talks about his legato? He did almost as much that way back then as picking,but nobody talks about it.....beautiful !

Had this on VHS in the 80s. He was something else back then. Fast, fluent, melodic and the solo was really well-structured.

[@allchoschabrecht4205]

@@MrTwangstaable I agree that he has gotten back into much better shape. but still all that delay and echo he uses nowadays. I think his playing style is a bit like a sport and we all get a little old. still love him nevertheless

2:34-35 the only time I’ve heard Yngwie miss a note in his younger perfect years (not that it matters, just an observation). I’ve heard this many times btw and nothing compares if you were inspired by this style like me when he came onto the scene. The classical progression he plays before going into his final with the teeth picking and Steeler solo ending was also really cool!

I think his guitar playing was clearer and faster back then than in his later stuff. Everything he played back then was crystal clear and you can tell there was a lot of power behind it at any speed, very strong left hand.

[@lndyrd]

Umm yeah that's like saying Michael Phelps swam faster when he wasn't old

[@RicardoMarlowFlamenco]

For guitar geeks only: I used to think this was the iconic “Duck” guitar, he even insinuated it IS the duck thanks to the play loud sticker. Well the sticker is different, and so is the guitar. This guitar was used on Rising force Cover, and by his own admission his “main guitar”. The Duck you can see in Coming Bach video with Alcatraz.. same model but different sound honestly. This Rising Force guitar was destroyed, but he must have missed it so much he made new Play Loud sticker and stuck it on the Duck, convincing not only fans but himself that this guitar lives on. Pretty deep. Pause it at 0:59 to see the sticker detail covering damage, and notice the 3 bolt at 7:00. That means this guitar was also 1971 or later like the Duck (he believed it to be a 69 at the time). After this guitar was destroyed he replaced his 3 bolt guitars with 4 bolts.

[@MrGreggl61]

The original Rising Force album cover Strat was absolutely destroyed you are correct. He threw it and missed the guitar which broke in half when it hit the stage. The only thing salvaged was the neck which at a later date had its head stock snapped due to yet another miss. That was repaired by doweling. The reason I know this is because my friend bought half of the broken piece of the original “Duck” for $5000. I saw it and held it. It was sold to the Hard Rock in NYC. Why Yngwie continues to say the existing “Duck” is that other guitar is a mystery but it is not true.

Génial. Bon, concernant Yngwie, c'est le genre de qualificatifs qu'on emploie souvent, trop souvent. On l'a trop mis en opposition à Satriani (rien à voir) et à Steve Vai (encore moins à voir). Les trois font pas le même métier, mais le plus rapide, et je ne parle pas que de sa main gauche qui, on le sait, comme il est droitier, est censée donner le tempo à ses rythmiques et à ses solos (je déteste le terme "soli"), est bel et bien le suédois YM, sa main gauche donc est d'une virtuosité qu'on n'a jamais connue dans toute l'histoire du rock'n'roll et des musiques qui l'entourent - qui entourent le rock'n'roll, pas Yngwie, suivez un peu.
