It is so cool that Yngwie is doing more on UA-cam. I love it!
Agree 👌👍👍👍
Agreed
Yes great
Big agree
Beautiful adrenaline!
Mind freedom..
Nice to see Yngwie so relaxed when among equals. No ego just Yngwie.
Vai is a better 'interviewer' than anyone else that has talked to Yngwie in the last 35 years.
I really enjoyed this, and I really think there is some great potential here for some kind of podcast type thing.
You guys are absolute legends
Steve Vai saying he couldn't match Yngwie back then, it said so much. I was shocked the first time i'd read that note, but hearing it from Steve himself right here right now... man...
Whisihing to see more.
Thanks for share!
I felt the same! Cool huh? 👍🏻
They played and play different styles, that's why. Both have their strengths.
Amazing how time flys. I'm the same age as these guys and I totally remember the lack of technology we had back than. Things we take for granted now would of blown us away back than. Sure was a special time back then, I do miss it.
We actually wrote letters and mailed them using stamps.
@@jackb348 People would order instructional videos through the mail then!! Imagine waiting a couple weeks for your video. Now we have youtube and we can access the content in seconds!! We are in the wild west of access to information. Cheers
So true.
I've never had a great amplifier before, but I'd of been blown away by all these modern modeling amplifiers we take for granted today.
It was so cool to see these two icons chatting about the "good old days". I never knew about this younger Yngwie and it was interesting how there was nothing else to do other than play records.
‘You fired him but didn’t even pay him! Lol
Dude, I could listen to your stories all day! Love just hearing you guys chat! Definitely can’t wait for part 2!
Both of you are the reason I started playing guitar !!
Same here. Its like watching your guitar parents talk.
I guess this makes us guitar brothers?
I love you Yngwie Malmsteen, you’re just incredible on guitar. Yngwie certainly made a huge stamp on the world of guitar.
Awesome! Love this chat! Good to see the friendship between them. Two geniuses together just chatring and laughing. They must invite Satriani, Morse, Johnson, Uli, Petrucciand all of the G3 Tour. Also, they must make some record all together.
I miss the days of having a record album. I loved the album cover art. When I was in art college in the late 80s/early 90s my whole walls were covered top to bottom with album covers. I also had a guitar god wall (and both of you were on it.) I loved reading all of the thank you's and liner notes, and lyrics. You just don't get that today. My introduction to Yngwie was from one of my good friends, Mario Parillo (who was then in a band called Oktober but later on went to play for Doro.) It was Rising Force. I had a jean jacket that I painted the Trilogy album cover on the back. SO many people wanted that jacket!!! I wore that thing til it was in shreds. Steve, I discovered you in Crossroads in 1986. HAD to know who you were and I was obsessed. Blessed to have gotten to see you on all of your Whitesnake tours. (Had a hand painted t-shirt with the band on it that was the envy of all my fellow metalheads.) SO cool to see you guys together here. What a blast! Keep on rockin', my guitar heroes.
I’ve introduced Yngwie to dozens of other guitarists and I love watching their reactions to songs like “far beyond the sun”, they always the same look in their faces I had when I first heard YJM almost 40 years ago.. that confused look.. but… how?? Why?? 🤯
-Because he can! And because “more is more”!!! Lol
Even mr. YJM himself gets amazed by the way he progressed from the very earlier days of his guitar journey to the times he was bossing around! 😆👌👍👍👍
I can relate to everything they are saying ... The generation today doesn't do anything , they don't go anywhere . They just stare at their phone ...
Two absolute living legends just chatting.
Wonderful stuff! 🎸☕️🎸
Nice to hear this storys. When I was Young I tried to learn Yngwies solos listening to vinyl and casetts. No UA-cam back then. It was difficult to learn. Later I came over some casetts so I could learn Yngwie solos note by note. Solos like Iam a viking, Disiples of hell and other songs. This was 1984,86. It was so funny to learn when You knrew how he did his fast stuff. Yngwie inspierd so many Young guitar players back then. Almost everybody tried to do Yngwiestuff in my hometown back then!
This is gold! Two of the greatest guitarists ever having a chat! Bloody brilliant!
What I would’ve given to see my 2 favorite guitar idols talking when I was 15….Happy to settle for 35 yrs later…..thanks for doing this Yngwie and Steve!!
this is so cool, two Maestros talking.... we need more youtube stuff like this Yngwie!!
is pleasure listening the two guitar legends of my youth to nowdays
This is gold. 2 giants talking super natural just chillin
Yngwie was a Child prodigy yet i never hear anyone talk about this. There are no other explanations how he plays the way he does just by ear. Even till this day no one plays the way Yngwie does
He practiced. That’s how he became so good. He even practiced in the crapper! But he has a sense of melody and style that is pure talent.
Having natural talent _and_ practicing a lot really helps. I read a book on neuroscience in which they explain pathways as rubber bands - some people can stretch certain bands easily (thin rubber bands, due to genetics), but it takes others a lot of work to stretch them (thick rubber bands). Having thick bands doesn't mean you can't do it, and achieve the same level, it just means it's easier for those with thin bands. There are also certain age spans in our development where band-stretching is easier. That's why it's so important to expose kids to things when they are young. Mindfulness and sheer force of will helps a lot, too. You have to want it.
@@gathda Exactly this. "I wish I could play guitar" people say, I reply "you can, practice" thanks for the info on pathways and why some things come easier for others and may be harder for others, very interesting!
Nerd*
I think that everyone and their dog learned to play like Yngwie. No one was copied as much as him since Eddie.
Great Steve Vai and Malsmteen, awesome
Thanks for being more active on social media Yngwie
Awesome seeing these two icons swapping stories and kicking it..🎸🎸🎶🎵
This is great. Just started getting good and it was over…Yng, we need the rest of it.
This is amazing What a guy Yngwie is, good to the see the real Yngwie just shooting the breeze with Steve Vai
Yngwie truly is the coolest!
Steve Vai and Yngwie Malmsteen! Wow!
priceless! two legends, i never imagined both talking
I could watch this for hours and hours. Please do some more videos like this and thank you for sharing Yngwie.
These legends are fantastic together. Happy memories seeing a double bill of Yngwie and Dio in worcester MA which was a blast. Yngwie has got such a wonderful sense of humor . I still have his instructional VHS and even when he tries to show you slowly, it is entertaining and but nearly impossible to follow his favorite licks.
These guys are literally living vaults of amazing stories and I would sit down listening to them forever
Neoclassical guitar sounds great. So glad to see such great guitarists talk to each other like regular people :)
Man, it's awesome to see two legends, pals, competitors from different universes, talking over coffee, reminiscing the old days! This is really cool. Overwhelming, really! 😍😃🔥🔥🔥🤟🤟🤟
I remember when I discovered Steve's and Yngwie's music, my head exploded, I never thought there were people with such qualities to play the guitar, you are the greatest thing the world has seen
Your beautiful memories are awesome and sweet
I’m so looking forward to seeing you again in Harrisburg Pennsylvania. The first show was very incredible I couldn’t sit down the entire time. I was in Awe!!!!
Anyone who missed it you Must go this time!!! Truely Spectacular!
Two of my favorite musicians. It's great to see yngwie talking and having fun with those guys.
It’s great to see Yngwie more and more! I met him and he was great!
There should be a button of "superlike" for moments like these!
Two of legendary guitar heroes chit chat.....after all they were human like us.... its awesome .... looking forward to next series ... with the others guitar heroes ..... greeting from Indonesia
Enjoying this very much!
Thank you both for doing this!
I’ve seen Yngwie live.
Now I have to see Steve live.
I've seen Yngwie about 10 or 11 times and finally got to see both *together* on the last *Generation Axe* tour and it was awesome.
@@MasterArpeggioSystem I saw Yngwie once, a few years back in Chicago. The show was fire. I imagine seeing both Yngwie and Steve in the same show was amazing!
I saw both Yngwie and Steve on 90's in Indonesia
I am so excited for this. I LOVE to hear Rock Stars talk about their music and their Rock life history, telling stories fans have never heard before. This is going to be great! Thank you 💖💖
I just love Yngwie man, I have nothing more to add.
This is awesome! Two guitar legends! What a great way to kick start this new series. Looking forward to part 2 🔥
Really enjoyed this! Never heard Yngwie in a sit down conversation before. It's cool to see you be yourself Yngwie!!
Yngwie, you have matured beautifully...you radiate warmth and a big heart these days.
Absolutely LOVELY to see & hear both Yngwie & Steve together talking about old times......In the 1980s they were both the premiere up and coming rock guitar talent setting new levels of technical virtuosity. I think in Alcatrazz in the mid 1980s Yngwie's shoes were very big & difficult to fill but I think Steve did a formidable job & put his own stamp on great early Yngwie compositions. Both Yngwie and Steve played their parts in great musical bands back then but it was so obvious that sooner or later BOTH would carve out unique names for themselves as players, going solo & calling all the creative shots (which is the way it should be.) Exceptional talent deserves exceptional latitude to flourish....4:05 - 'Steve - '& I'm completely unknown. I'm just this weird guy that's NOT Yngwie' ....🤔 Story of my LIFE guys ,,,,(sob !) 😪 ....lolol ...Lovely to hear Yngwie's stories when he was very young. Was Yngwie FIRING people when he was only10 years old ?? .....lol🤣 I think Mike Varney discovered Ron Thal too. I remember EVH discovering Yngwie by listening to radio. In a guitar player interview in 1987 Edward said he & Hagar were driving in Ed's car really fast cross country and on the car radio as they were speeding they heard on it Yngwie playing solo sections from Rising Force...And Hagar said Eddie's single line reaction was - 'THE GUY IS PLAYING SOME STUFF MAN' ! ....With Steve , Ed knew of Steve through Frank (Zappa) ....Ed would go round his studio when Steve was there. Steve would transcribe Ed's solos for guitar player magazine which was nice....When Steve & Billy Sheehan were hired by Mr. Roth Ed said - 'Steve & Billy are two of the best around. Obviously Dave has hired two of the hottest guns in town to replace us'.....There was never any competition between Steve & Ed ......The press talked it up & fans. I also remember Frank Zappa singing Yngwie's praises as a player way back in the 1980s even though their types of music were very different.....I first heard Yngwie on No Parole For Rock n Roll in 1985 when I knew Bob the Scorpions Tour Manager back then in Hendon coming off world tour...He played me that album & I was flabbergasted by his clean speed, accuracy , emotional intensity & neo classical flavour.....Steve had a bad press with me to begin with because I assumed he was like the cruel Jack Butler character in the movie Crossroads who took sadistic pleasure in destroying other players confidence but later I found out Steve wasn't like that guy at all...Steve is a PUSSYCAT really..lol..😺....Its funny how easy it is to get the wrong negative idea about someone I guess.
That song MAJESTIC BLUE 🟦🟦🟦🔊 is a masterpiece, can't stop listening to it, love the more bluesy licks
🙏🙏🤘🤘
this two guitarist ,who shock the world in d early 1984 to 1995.yngwie and steve are world aparts....
Los dos son mi fuentes de inspiración , los quiero 🤟🤟
I wish my dad were still alive to see this. He'd love this.
Hope you can squeeze in a date for Colorado.
WOW! 2 of the greatest of all time - at the same time!! GOTTA LOVE IT!!!
Two legends together
Yngwie.and Steve are two of my many guitar influences. Listening first time on their early records in the early 90s is mind blowing! Thank you sirs for inspiring many guitarist including me.
This feels so good, I can cry. ❤️ both these legends. We are so lucky to have them.
I am getting a little fuzzy now😘
Hope Yngwie does more of this sort of thing! It is pretty cool seeing him here.
This is totally cool !!! It's fantastic that Yngwie is doing this on his channel. It's really great to see him opening up like this. Via is a great guest too. I love Yngwie's take on things. He's had an amazing career and he's still going strong. I've been a fan of his since Steeler and it's fantastic to see him doing this type of program added to his arsenal. It's really cool Yngwie. Keep it going - I can't wait for Episode 2 ! Thank you so much !
I just yngwie. And. He was wayyy better than I thought he would. Be. He had been practicing was super tight clean. !!! One of his best tours ever
I simply love both of these guys.
Lots of great guitarists down the years but pioneers are few. Malmsteen played the way every kid in the 80s fantasied. A true legend.
two of my favourite guitarists fabulous
We need more of this! Hi from Ireland!
Right on Yngwie!🤘
Yeah it's awesome to be able to hear him and his views and how his personal growth happened . It's not even a word to say how good versouso 10000 time over amazing abilities.and endurance it's crazy like rare human to do at that level. awesome to him
I'm 52 and remember u guys were the next great ones! 1982
It took 30++ yrs for these guys to interview. Damn grateful.
So great to see this! Really takes me back when records or cassettes were everything. God bless Yngwie!
It's good these classic guitar heroes get out there like this. So many young people never heard of Vai or Yngwie, along with bigger stars. I saw a young kid point to a poster of Hendrix and not know him..
Whoa this is instantly the coolest guitar channel.
Yngwie is coming to my town in August. I’m sooooooo stoked.
Cool talking and memories! Thanks so much for share! 🤘🤘☠☠
We soo waited for this kind of content for the longest time ! Keep up with this Yngwie (and thanks Steve and to whoever brought the idea to the making)
Yngwie is in great form here. Tow absolute legends. 👍🏻
guitarplayer magazine made my pre internet world too. so many different styles in one magazine, it opened up so many sonic posibilities. cool podcast Yngwie well done
GREAT Information!
Amazing!!! yngwie and steve vai 👏🏼
Thank you Ygwie and Steve. I've been a fan of both if you since 1985!! You've both been a huge part of my life. I've spent probably thousands of hours listening to your music. And you both inspire me as a player and artist!
Great to see you Yngwie 👍
Saw Yngwie back in November, Green Bay Wisconsin. Ive never seen a guy beat those guitars and not one note was off all night. Im still in awe so I ordered one of his custom guitars a month ago, its coming soon and Im stoked for the Candy Apple Red and Rosewood fret board to arrive. Man what a show, cant wait to see him again !!
2 of my guitar heroes. Long live the Maestros. Looking forward for more
This was an amazing conversation! Thank you so much for sharing & the great Coffee Talk idea! Two fantastic musicians. Looking forward to more !
You're spoiling us Yngwie. It's great to see Steve too. Looking forward to seeing more. 🎸👍🏼
This is Gold! Can't get enough of this channel. Thank you.
Wow !!! 2 legends together....so much respect for both of them. Thank you Yngwie really from the bottom of our hearts for this special episode
Awesomeness thank you Yngwie and Steve huge fan of both of you and thank you
Two great guitarists I admired in the 80s before I could even played guitar.
I have met you both and, i gotta say this is awesome! is good to see Yngwei doing a bit more youtube, but i gotta say Steve Vai is just such a humble and amazing soul.
Yess my 2 childhood guitar heroes on coffee talk
I wonder how many guitarists were born because of these 2 legends!!!
Yngwie come on tour in France!!
We love your music!!!❤️
(We love Steve too😉)
2 Real Legends
This is awesome!
Yngwei is a mad man, and I love it.
2 of my very favourite guitar players!!! Amazing!
Thanks so much yngwie...your music is my sountrack of life.
Thank you for a coffee ☕️ talk. I love both yngwie and Steve Vai because I listen your many songs now and then 🎸💕🎼. From japan.
Love you Yngwie!!!!!
Wish I’d was longer!!! Was enjoying that
My god it is so interesting listening two legends' stories. I just love you both.
I just started playing base guitar when I heard Rising Force. It changed my life, I sold my bass and got an electric guitar, went on to suffered for years trying to figure out how to play like you. Great interview between total legends.
Love this. Two of my idols. So nice to hear them talk about these amazing years when they gave us such amazing music. God bless them both.
