    I think Hendrix, Van Halen, and this cat Malmsteen are the true game changers in the world of electric guitar players.

    I immediately knew Yngwie was on another level when I first heard him in 84'. I grew up with Blackmore, Schon, Gilmour, Page, Rhoads, Eddie Van Halen, et al. Yngwie totally took me to another dimension. I've been to his soundchecks, the man can play anything under the sun. Will listen to the Maestro till my last breath.

    I've been listening to Yngwie since the Steeler album. I literally called my best friend at 1:15 in the morning and said, "turn on WHJY! You've got to hear this guy!" My life has not been the same since. Met Yngwie in Providence on the Eclipse tour, and Yngwie is one of the nicest, most down to earth guys I've ever met!

    Every single person I've met who knocks Yngwie, either can't play guitar, or they suck at it. Real musicians know what they're listening to. And despite all of his unique and soaring talent; it's his compositions that make him immortal. People seem to forget that it takes so much more than mechanical skill to be able to write original music, and specifically, original melody. I'll never forget my first guitar teacher at 16 (which lasted one month). I told him I wanted to play Malmsteen and he said with a straight face, "You'll never be able to play like that." I was absolutely furious. After that I practiced like hell. And eventually, with much hard work, I taught myself (by watching and listening to Yngwie) how to shred and sweep pick (I can play four different instruments, now). So now, when people assume I'm good at guitar because they hear me messing around with phrases from Arpeggios From Hell, Trilogy Suite, Paganini, Bach, and Mozart, I say, "If you think I'm good, you ain't heard nothin'."

    Yngwie is such an authentic, great, self made guy! People neglect how musical he is, other than being virtuoso beyond this world. His tone is such a beautiful thing in itself - people hold dear SRV for strat tone, I'm willing to argue Yngwie's tone is just as unique and good. The phrasing, the composition. I've seen him live a couple of times and he gave 100%. Nothing but live for Yngwie, a living God.

  • @johnstitt2615

    YJM loves blues and jazz and can play them well but the core of his playing is rooted in classical and violin as he says.

    Maestro I am so happy,impressed of your progress way beyond the music. Having met you when you were still a teen and our chat of your experiences. Without going into detail i have carried that moment and defense of cruel things said through the years about you. But I knew the truth and as most could never handle the great pressure you were placed within outside of your guitar...Proud to say "No circus bear" love you man and keep it coming.💔🐉🎸

    As a lifelong guitar lover/player I have followed your career since it's inception.
    In that phenomenal and storied time, there has been SOOO much gossip,speculation, and media manipulation about you and your influence...and influences.
    Thank you for sharing this side of you that is so seldom seen.🙏 In my VERY humble opinion, You are easily the Segovia of metal/rock electric guitar.

    Like him or not, agree with him or not, the man stuck to his guns. In this day and age, that's a sure way to be inspired.
    With all of the distractions we all have to deal with, by sticking with what you TRULY want with an unwavering PASSION, Yngwie has shown it IS possible to achieve greatness.
    Good for him. Great musician!

    When I heard far beyond the sun (first time I heard YJM) I was blown away completely . It sounded scary to even imagine to play. At that time I had already heard 70s 80s bands. Yngwie Johann Malmsteen is a trademark in the musical world.

    Just a Beautiful Movie Y....Heard the rhythmic tone of Blackstar through the walls of Army Barracks...back in 85?... and just started whipping out blues scaled licks to that tone....and didn't even know...for sure if it was YOU or the Name of the tune...until last year....36 years later... Seen a few Live Performances on UA-cam.... Just Beautiful Y
