John is the reason why in 1988 l picked up a guitar and begun to play...in 1986 l was 13teen and The final countdown was a big hit also in my country(Italy),from than on l bought all the Europe albums and when Norum left the band l followed him in his solo career(from Total Control on and on)...then l discover other guitarists,more blues oriented(Hendrix,Page,Gilmour and Paul Kossoff),as l play blues-rock,but John Norum remains my first Guitar Hero and one of my greatest and deepest influence🎸🎸🎸❤❤❤
I think many have heard him but they just dont know it. ( dokken aso). Of course here In skandik( im from finland) hes been In media a lot More. At least from early 80s.
Michael shenker. Uli Roth. Mathias jabs John Norum. Yngvie malmstein. Hank Sherman Andy Laroque. Pete Black. Huge influences on most European and Scandinavian guitarist
His feelings and emotions come out when he plays his guitar, John is a great guitarist who plays with his soul, I love listening especially to his solos, it's great to hear him live at shows, interesting interview, thanks!! 🎸💕🎶🙌
Its first time i watching one interview so cool and calm words one awesome guitarist and looks one humble charismatic human being i like know the other side more human of rock stars tnx for share with us this great talk to talk of friends in a bar or home happy hour
Мне очень нравится, когда Норум и поёт, у него необычный тембр голоса, но гитарист - он великолепен. Повезло группе Европе, что они до сих пор вместе, верны своей группе. Я очень рада за них. ❤❤❤❤
Super cool he name checks Frank Marino !!! Frank was such an influence on guys our age in our mid/late 50’s, Frank was the original pentatonic blues shredder of the 70’s !!
Please John, you are an amazing singer and always was! Just like Richie Sambora, you matches your lead singer perfectly. Anyone can hear it on the song you and Joey made in your absence from Europe (sorry, I dont recall rhe title right now. 🙈)
Outside of your doing the speed metal part of "Stay With Me" by Frank Marino you did great on the Second Hand Smoke album. Bravo. Sometimes , there's enough speed and feel is enough. And you've got feel or you do melody quite well. It's your soul. The burning on that song? Not necessary but great job John. Frank is a master for the ages. and Schenker/ You've got the right influences for sure.
John Norum loves his playing, great guitarist live , the best and comes across as a really down to earth and humble guy, in this interview.
I love John Norum he's a great musician and a great guitarist 👍🎸🎤🎸🎤🥁🎸

One of the few interview for Norum sadly. Its Shame for rock world because Norum is the one of the best ever guitar, but media ignore that.
Actually he doesn't like interviews and meet and greets since the 80s
Cant get enough of John's guitar playing. A shame he just is not heard in the US

we will be strong
Great relaxed, thoughtful interview. John seems like soulful, calm, thoughtful guy. Great player. Enjoyed this a lot.
❤
Playing an instrument or singing definitely is therapy
Nice guy
У Джона красивый голос, он хорошо поет, и гитарист он отличный,, в молодости выдавал очень красивые соло на гитаре.

Har du färgat håret . Glöm inte ögonbrynen annars ser det konstigt ut . Jag gjorde det för jag ville ha ett jobb . Ride on 😅
It can be a beautiful place, but I would never go there to play for those psychopats.
