First Time Hearing Yngwie Malmsteen - Black Star Reaction - WHAT?! PLAYING WITH HIS TEETH?! 🤯 

Yngwie is a pioneer, he influenced many guitarists.

Yngwie is the father of modern Neoclassical. He is one of the reasons I picked up a guitar some 40 years ago.

Be ready to have your minds blown

Certainly one of the greatest players in the past 50 years. Steve Vai calls Yngwie a "freak of nature", and he's not wrong. Heavily influenced by classical music, he pioneered the Neo-Classical style and certainly inspired many young guitarists in the 80s to improve their playing. He's still touring as well.....worth the effort to see the show....he always has one heck of a stack or Marshalls (old school!).

I love that he starts with Bach and flows into the next part so fluidly.

Yngwie (ing - vei) Malmsteen is a Swedish guitarist considered to be one of the innovators of neo-classical rock/metal guitar. In his early years he was influenced by classical composers such as Italian violinist Pagannini and Johann Sabastian Bach, as well as rock guitarist Richie Blackmore from Deep Purple/Rainbow. 😃🎸🎸🎸🎸

Pronounced ing vay, one of thE best guitarists in the world. He’s considered neoclassical 🔥 from Sweden 🇸🇪

First time I ever saw Yngwie Malmsteen was in the early 80s when he was the lead guitar player for a band named Steeler. It was at the Country Club, in Reseda California. I’ll never forget during his solo he used my Heineken bottle as a slide. I was a very young kid at that time. I had some great times at that place during the 80s. Great guitar player and fun to see live. Great reaction.👏👏👏👏🤙🤙🤙🤙

Every solo he plays is never the same because he thinks that only the greats can do that. Improvise the solo, put on a great show and never stop improving your studies. ❤

Malmsteen is a beast on the guitar and with Jens Johansson on keyboards who is phenomenal player, they've put on amazing shows!

Ingwie is a Legend has been for decades since like he marched out in 1985

Been listening to Yngwie since 1986. When it comes to his style of playing, he is second to none.

The way you pronounce Yngwie is - Ing Vay The songs Id recommend are Far Beyond the Sun and Icarus' Dream both studio. They are from the same album (Rising Force") as this song, Yngwie Malmsteen's first album.

YJM's greatest accomplishment was "Concerto Suite for Electric Guitar and Orchestra in E-flat minor, Op. 1", period.

I wondered when you would find Yngwie, he is an incredible player in the early 1980’s he came over to America and his style is called Neoclassical

Most people have no clue who Yngwie is. I think EVH and Yngwie are number 1 and 2 for best guitarist ever.

Guys this is EPIC ON ANOTHER LEVEL OF GUITAR PLAYING...MALMSTEEN IS THE BEST GUITARIST IN THE WORLD ...CHECKOUT ...FAR BEYOND THE SUN

So I know I'm late to the conversation. Malmsteen completely changed my entire view on metal and truly allowed me to see the classical influence in metal period. He truly is a legend!!! Watch live with the Japanese Philharmonic. Mind🤯

His guitar’s are specially scalloped,that’s how he gets those amazing reverbs. He’s a legend. Been listening to him since he was 16 in Steeler. Listen to Steeler intro to the track Hot on your Heels. Wow

11:48 looks at his wrist to see the time "oh shit! My watch must've fallen off while flicking my guitar around so much...oh well" ....& countinues playing like a boss

talented? serious? he is one of the two virtuoso has been leading the neo classical wave for rock and metal music from 80's. the second is Jason Becker. all symphonic rock and metal bands owe him a lot for founding this genre.

FYI. Yngwie malsteen was be a global master virtuoso guitar when he is 20 years old since his 1st album in 1984.

I've played guitar for twenty five years he is my inspiration and got me into playing guitar..

He carried his guitarr with him every where he went since he was 10. There is documentary about him

Level of talent that is hard to wrap the head around. Insanely skilled

It's pronounced "ing - vay m'am - steen" 😁Born in Sweden, (and u were right!) he grew up w/ European classical music and also on the music of Jimi Hendrix, Ritchie Blackmore of Deep Purple/ Rainbow, Uli Jon Roth of the Scorpions... Yngwie learned to play guitar as a kid and went pro in his teens when he came to America in the early 80's and joined L.A. rockers Steeler... He was soon picked by former Rainbow vocalist Graham Bonnet to play guitar for the rock band Alcatrazz... It made him a star in Japan and Yngwie was writing original music at age 19 for his debut solo album in 1984 - the mostly instrumental record was released under the banner Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Rising Force - 'Black Star' was the opening track ... w/ vocalist Jeff Scott Soto, he completed a 2nd album 'Marching out' (1986) and it solidified his 'guitar hero' status as he demonstrated blazing speeds on the fret that no guitar player could pull off back then... 3rd album 'Trilogy' featured vocalist Mark Boals in 1986... but he was injured in a near-fatal car accident and faced a difficult recovery, as well as losing his finances when a manager took off w/ his earnings. In 1988, Yngwie recovered his guitar skills and recorded his biggest album 'Odyssey' w/ another former Rainbow singer Joe Lynn Turner and marked the success w/ a live record 'Live in Leningrad' in 1989. Unfortunately, Yngwie's brand of rock w/ blazing leads became obsolete as the 90's began... Goran Edman (vocals) recorded 2 albums - 'Eclipse' (1990) and 'Fire and Ice' (1992)... but neither sold as well... However, Yngwie J. Malmsteen persisted in the 90's and beyond w/ various lead singers and released a string of remarkable records from 'The Seventh Sign' in 1994 to 'Parabellum' in 2021. Some Yngwie J. Malmsteen tracks (w/ vocals) - "I'll see the light tonight" ... 'Liar' ... 'Hold on' ... 'Rising Force' ... 'Judas' ... "Far beyond the Sun" (instrumental)... "You don't remember, I'll never forget"... 🔥🔥🤘🤘

I had the great fortune to see SATRIANI VAI AND MALMSTEEN (G3 2003) at the Beacon Theater in NY. What a show also as guests they had John Petrucci and Neil Schon. It’s like I died and went to guitar heaven. Unfreaking believable

Yngwie changed the game.🍻

BEST DAY EVER FOR THIS CHANNEL

Recomend this music of Yngwie Malmsteen Like An Angel

Yngwie is a fan of Italian classical violinist Antonio Vivaldi (1678 to 1741)-- so much so that he named his son Antonio in his honor. Yngwie is a neoclassical guitarist with major skills and a huge ego to match. No doubt a great guitarist.

Your new subscriber from India here. I am a huge fan of Yngwie Malmsteen.

I am in awe of his talent and his technical skill.. he’s almost perfect. And yet….and yet…..He does not reach my soul. Total intellectual appreciation. No emotional connection. I speak only for myself.

according to Steve Vai ... " Yngwie says he is the greatest of all time , and who are we to argue?" i believe they are actually great friends in real life :)

The one and only Yngwie Johan Malmsteen I, was lucky enough to see him live in Auckland . There was a joke in the 90s a guitarist is at the pearly gates and standing next to St Peter. All of a sudden he can hears the intro to Black Star being played. He turns to St Peter and asks is Yngwie here in heaven . St Peter looks at him with a grim face and reply's no we couldn't let him in. That is God practicing

One word….Legend.

Back when I was young I had a friend who was really good at playing guitar and he played a lot on Malmsteen songs. We used to have partys over his place, and he turned his amp to max and played Malmsteen songs. So fking cool!

Yngwie is one of the very best. Got introduced to him by my dad who is a huge fan when I was about 10yo. Been mesmerized by him ever since.

Guy is one of the best for the last 40years. Came from a band called Alcatraz. Steve Vai also came from Alcatraz. The lead singer was of Alcatraz was Graham Bonnet who sang for Rainbow. Rainbows guitarist was Ritchie Blackmore from Deep Purple, who Yngwie idolizes. One of Yngwie singers in his solo stuff was Joe Lynn Turner, who was also a singer in Rainbow, and one deep purple album in the 90's. Whew...trip down memory lane there lol!

Fantastic, he,s up there with Blackmore, Hendrix, Beck and Uli jon Roth

Bach, Beethoven , Paganini, Vivaldi...Swedish love classical music

I have a buddy who played with him on an album or 2 Said he’s very good and very busy with his fingers. Anyway very nice acoustic guitar playing

Need to hear Yngwie Malmsteen's "Dreamin (Tell Me)" Great song!

The best! Thanks guys! 🤘😎

We know but some dont- He doesn't even begin to touch Black Star until 5 minutes in. He's so underrated as a player

its not often that you get to watch a man play that createdd an entirely new genre of music. feel privileged folks

ブラックスターの武道館バージョンは最高です🎸

Yngwie is the Goat baby!!

Yngwie is a straight up stud

8:23 i love when Il Maestro do at the stage, the face of both

No one better on the guitar period!

I feel like playing the guitar with his tongue and his teeth is definitely something he would’ve picked up from Jimi Hendrix, even though he claimed the only thing he saw from Jimi Hendrix was him setting his guitar on fire so he used to do that on stage as well.

Also for you non-swedes, his real name is "Yngve Malmsten". Looks similar but pronounced very differently.

Amazing!

You need to react to Hear N' Aid - Stars. It was metal's contribution to the charity effort during the 80's when the pop world was doing things like the Band Aid concerts. They assembled most of the A-list stars of metal from some monumental bands, but were also not snobbish enough to throw the door open to individual talents like Malmsteen and even Spinal Tap. The amount of talent in the one room is mind blowing and is a window into a bygone era at its absolute peak. This was before the heavier stuff like Megadeath and Pantera etc., which is a genre in itself, so don't be challenged by the fact that it is "metal".

the legend !

Thank you sams legs and also talking heads for amazing reaction 😂😂😂! 😊😊

When he played live in poukeepsie at the chance he lit the guitar on fire. We went fuckin nutz as he played I am a viking

Malmsteen=Big boss

Been listening to malmsteen since 88 odyssey album 👌👌👌👌

Yngwie conveniently fits in the top 10 rock guitar players of all time.

One of the greatest

among the first to buy the vhs copy of live in budokan when it first came out

If you wanna hear something cool...check out his song Heaven Tonight.. It was a HUGE radio and MTV song back in the 80's. Its like his 'hair metal' song

Pronunciation: Ing vee Maahlmsteen. 1 of the great virtuoso guitarists of the 1980s. Strongly 💪 suggested video 📹: Joe Lynn Turner and Yngwie Malmsteen perform Heaven Tonight live.

Saw an instructional vid of his called "Arpeggios from Hell" and he invites you to "play along." Hilarious. Maybe with about 130 more years of practice

Please, check out Hear n Aid, song is called Stars... Yngwie, and a whole bunch of rock stars from the 80s got together for a benefit, guys from queensryche, dokken and a number of others were asked by Dio and his friends to record a song...its 🔥

One of the biggest guitar 🎸 playing music live music video for watching great music

Find a guy that looks at you and touches you the way Yngwie looks at and touches his guitars. Hehehe

He loved the sound of the late great Randy Rhoads.

Great reaction as always ❤ Icould go on and on with Yngwie requests lol, but you have to check out Far Beyond the Sun next

You guys should definitely do some classical reactions. There are tons of great pieces to choose from. Beethovens symphony #7 allegretto is great

When I was 18 some co-worker gave me live in Leningrad by malnsteen and I literally shit my pants.

If you like an overdose of guitar God’s, look for G3 with Yngwie, Joe Satriani and Peter Frampton. I had the please to hear that a their concerts in LA, London and Zürich.

Far beyond the sun is the top!

Go look at one of his signature guitars, the frets are scalloped so he gets a different note the harder he pushes

Pronounced (Ingvay)....Steeler, Alacatrazz, Rising Force.....he played a lefthanded Stratocaster righthanded in honor of Jimi Hendrix in Rising Force in the early to mid '80s. His guitar has scalloped frets. Some of the Rising Force live shows from '85 are very good. Many people have never heard of him but he has been around for 40+ years or more.

The speed god!

Lovebites-Hammer of wrath live in Tokyo 2023

yngwie rulezz!!!

This man can’t b human! What the f%ck!! Salute 🫡

Malmsteen is perhaps the most "Technically Proficient" guitarist in recent memory, even surpassing Eddie VanHalen in that regard. But there's more to guitar than technical ability. His music has never been especially moving. It's like eating a meal prepared by a 5-star chef, it's flawless, but it's still not Grandma's home cooking, if that makes sense... Part of it is how do you share a stage with a guitarist that good? It doesn't leave a lot of room for the other musicians. It's like Michael Jordan or Wayne Gretzky... when they were in their prime they were super-stars, but at the same time college sports got a lot more popular because the guys at the top can't surprise you anymore. You expect them to win every time, and you're usually right, and it becomes less amazing. But if they stopped winning, you'd lose interest entirely. People get trapped in success that way.

I saw yngwie with ACDC in the early to mid 80s.

I'm still waiting for reaction videos for the metal guitarist David T. Chastain. His albums, Instrumental Variation, The Heat Within, and Elegant Seduction are awesome. Does anybody in the You Tube world know about him??? .

Yngwie is the MAN! And that is all I have to say about that.

Yngwie is a GOD

His first name is pronounced Ing vay. His full name is always pronounced loudly with a heavy German accent, big smile, and a 'Ya!' at the end. Extra points for wearing lederhosen.

😂 yeah I'd say they got it going on over there in Sweden😅😅😅

I feel like you can tell the type of music people listen to by the way they move there head to music

Прикольно, чувак с чувихой сидят и впаривают как Ингви нужно слушать, в 88 году попалась мне пластинка от Полидорис, по сих пор оторваться не могу

Well that was intense

Check him out with a full orquestra. Now thats super unique. I can only give suggestions but ive never ever had one played, even when i know other request it also, just like river plate concert (AC DC). Just being ignored.

Great

Its actually supposed to mimic the violin. He is very paganini influenced as far as technique. He labels himself as Baroque n Roll

You definitely need to check out some more modern guitar wizardry in Polyphia- Ego Death. It features Steve Vai, which you have reacted to.

If you want to hear some mind blowing classical guitar check out Antoine Boyer playing Scarlatti Sonata K386.

Yngwie was my favourite musician for 30 years,, and it's great to see people discovering him all the time, and better still, appreciating him! Why is he no longer my favourite? Recently, I've been taken with the all-female Japanese heavy metal band, Lovebites. They're amazing, and to fit with your channel, one of the guitarists competes in bikini bodybuilding competitions in her spare time! Any song from their official channel would be great - maybe try the live version of The Hammer of Wrath for a high-octane intro: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pHrWRT0Jeac.html

I wanna try the guitar whip so bad bad but knowing me I'll probably end up eating the damn thing 😂

Best ever

Yngwie the beast de la tierra
