Yngwie Malmsteen has been known to have an ego, but it would seem it's a fragile one at that. 16 year old @sixstringtv 's video has been removed via manual copyright claim when it shouldn't have been. My video received the same treatment.
This is the video Yngwie Malmsteen doesn't want you to see.

The story I always think of when Yngwie Malmsteen comes up. Quite a long time ago Malmsteen came to Australia for the first time (1990) and only played on the East Coast (Melbourne/Sydney). There was a guy in Perth who was one of the biggest Malmsteen collectors in the world. He had every pressing of every record, a replica of Malsteen's guitar custom built and the local record co guy made sure he got anything Malmsteen related, all the posters, stickers, media kits etc. We'll hook you up in Melbourne. So he flew the 3,500 miles yo Melbourne and headed off to the press conference that he had been invited to. 'Lets wait to the end and then we'll take you up and introduce you'. Press conference went well and he seemed in a good mood. At the end they took the guy up and started to introduce him and Malmsteen turned his back on him and said 'Oh just fuck off'. The record co guy was super shocked. 'It was all arranged, let me find out what happened'. Record co guy rings Perth guy and says 'so sorry apparently he's been having a bad day, but tonight after the show you have backstage passes and he'll sign some stuff for you and we'll get a photo'. Perth guy - 'No. I'll be back in Perth'. Record co guy 'What? But you have tickets for all the shows'. Perth guy - 'Nobody treats me like that. So he can go fuck himself' and he went home and sold off his entire collection and never listened to Malmsteen again. That is the story that sums Yngwie Malmsteen for me.
That's devastating. I am glad I didn't bother seeing him in Brisbane last time.
He really is an arrogant obnoxious prick that deserves to be a pariah in the Metal community. He hurt a gell of a lot of people over the years & deserves nothing less that utter contempt for his skeezy attitude.
I'm glad I won't waste my money seeing him. I only like the first record anyway
And John Lennon (you know, someone almost universally beloved) invited a crazed fan into his home for dinner who was convinced the songs were being written for him.
John Lennon had an ego like a skyscraper. How the hell does a guy who is only admired by his fellow musicians get a head this big?
Kind of bums me out.
I have never heard a person who wasn’t a guitarist say his name. Even then they usually call him Ying-way.
Bro aussies are like that , you only have to let an Aussie person down once !
Just imagine Yngwie's surprise when, one day, he opens up his RUclips and finds that Johann S. Bach filed a copyright claim against him. From a strange Gmail account.
My mate in Perth, Australia (who's disabled and in a wheelchair) went to see Malmsteen and even got a VIP meet-and-greet ticket... after waiting in the designated area for two hours with the other dozen or so meet-and-greet ticketholders, Malmsteen's agent came out and introduced him and encouraged the crowd to cheer and applaud as he emerged from the dressing room. They did, but he never came through the door. The agent went back there and checked, only to return and say "Guys, I have to tell you... that wasn't good enough. He's not going to come out unless you REALLY cheer and applaud. Louder! Louder!!!" and then after a few minutes of the people clapping and cheering as loud as they could, he emerged and sat down for fifteen minutes and signed autographs without speaking or making eye contact with anyone. Then he abruptly got up and went back to his dressing room. And that was the VIP meet-and-greet tickets they that paid extra for. It was apparently the most pathetic thing my mate has ever seen.
A year later, however, Joe Satriani played at the same venue and was a total pro, came running over to my disabled wheelchair mate as soon as he saw him, talked with him and signed autographs and got photos. For free!!
Moral of the story: Yngwie is a loser, Satch is a legend.
Wow, I am not as close you all the the YM’s music but have always been fascinated by his technicality. Recently saw (first ever) interview of him with Rick Beato, and I could see that Y is a difficult guy, but is being described here is shocking, shame on him for behaving that way, regardless of how good he is. Disappointed!
Satch is down to earth! I have seen him two times and talked to him once. He is very humble. Someone who has paved the way for so many instrumental guitarists since he entered the instrumental rock scene.
same here, Satriani is one of a kind! @@alirezaroshannahad
Reminds me of a Suzi Quatro concert I attended in New Zealand back in the 1970s. She threatened to walk off stage unless the concertgoers all got to their feet (and tangled themselves among the chairs).
Yngwe is shy.
Sounds like Yngwie is the Steven Seagal of the music industry.
He really is. I wouldn't be surprised if he went full Seagal and pretended he was a secret agent or something lol
Only more tedious.
The most accurate take on this idiot I've seen so far.
Just waiting on that space ice video to drop now
Yngwie is really a great guitar player. Seagal isnt really a great anything.
I was banned from Yngwie's official page for making a joke about Yngwie not liking donuts. One of the proudest moments of my life.
🤣
I highly doubt Yngwie has time for that.
🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩
Many doughnuts 🍩 and blessings to you 🙏
Your comments have made the doughnut gods extremely happy!
Well the security guard liked doughnuts
He is like the dolly lama he will not break a circle because it is enternal. You have to cut it for him.
Long story: Years ago my best friend loved Yngwie and his playing. My friend played mostly Stratocasters. After an Yngwie show my friend had like a minute to grab one his guitars to have it signed by Yngwie. My friend happened to grab his only ESP guitar. The guitar was taken inside Yngwie's tour bus to be signed. When the guitar came back out of the bus, Yngwie had written in large black letters across the front of the guitar with a permanent maker "PLAY FENDER". This really ruined the guitar's looks, plus very much disappointed my friend. About a year later, my same friend and his band opened for Yngwie in a club in Greensboro, NC. My friend was given the ok to video the Yngwie sound check and his show. During the show Yngwie motioned to my friend to hand Yngwie the camera. Yngwie filmed the crowd, band, and himself for several minutes. He hand off the camera to his tech. After the show my friend asked for his camera. It was returned without the tape. My friend told Yngwie's manager to simply erase Yngwie from the tape, then return it because the tape contained my friend's daughter's first birthday celebration with their family. Yngwie refused. The bass player for Yngwie promised to get the tape back asap and took my friend's info. Several weeks later the bass player called my friend from New York to say he dropped the tape in the mail and he apologized for Yngwie's behavior. When the tape arrived all the concert footage had been erased.
Everyone knows what an egotistical asshat Yngwie has always been.
The ”PLAY FENDER” thing was hilarious 😅🤘🏼 I would be proud to own that guitar, what a signature😅😎🎸 The ”tape thing”.. not so much…
What is special about this. ROck guitarist are given guitars all the time to sign that are often sold for profit by the owners. The rockers know the scam. Your friend is a moron thinking Yngwie would sign an ESP. Keith Richards almost never signed his actual name to a guitar.
What city was it? sounds familiar to me
The creep is really trying to be as strange and mean as Ritchie in every way he can think of, it seems. Pay money to see this freak 'play' you're a sucker. :/
Guitar must have gained value!
A few years ago I went to see Yngwie live. They were offering a $400 meet and greet with the man.
I had the money, and there was a donut shop down the street. It took EVERYTHING I had not to go get some donuts, hide them in my hoodie, buy the meet and greet, and somehow discreetly film myself offering him a donut, just to see what would happen.
There are people who’d pay you to do that…
He would probably kick you out then eat the donuts in secrecy.
His first 3 solo albums: the Grammy nominated "Rising Force", Marching Out and Trilogy were incredible and like nothing anyone else was doing when they were released. At that point in his career he had the talent and potential to go on to become one of the greatest guitarists of all time. However, at some point after Trilogy he suffered a very serious car accident and had to learn to play again. His relearned playing, whilst still technically impressive, appeared to be based very heavily on straight scale and arpeggio runs and lacked much of the unique character and invention of his former style. This was accompanied by a change in sound from the cleaner, cranked non-master volume amps to a much more forgiving pre-amp based, more distorted sound. The old NMV amps were incredibly unforgiving to play but allowed (and encouraged) a lot more expression, dynamics and character that has been lacking since.
After the innovation and accomplishments of his early albums he could have taken his incredible talent and gone in the direction of players like Beck and continued to improve, innovate, explore and challenge himself. Instead, he has appeared to dissolve into a steadily declining cliche of himself with an ever-narrowing range of ideas.
>with an ever-narrowing range of ideas.
Happens to every man over 30. Can't teach an old dog new tricks.
If you think otherwise you're just another white person.
@tested211 I agree. The 1959 series were the best amps Marshall put out.
An accident doesn't excuse a bad attitude
Excellent analysis, I totally agree with you! The before Yngwie was a force of nature, we will never know where it would have taken him.
@@CrazyHenkie777Exact!
man, if only Yngwie J. Malmsteen stopped that atrocious imposter Yngwie Malmsteen
Maybe his Rising Force weakened over time
LoL
@@rahulmenon4357 maybe he needs Viagra to make his force rise again haha
J is for jag off!
Accolades must be given to Yngwie in the 80's and 90's for supporting the idea that "It is okay to dress like a gay pirate" 😄
A friend of mine knows a guy who did some work for Yngwie at one point and before being introduced, he was given a list of instructions on how to behave towards him. Now that's already weird enough but one of the things on this list was "Don't look Yngwie in the eyes.". Seriously, what is wrong with this man?
Is he a Narcissist?
@@heartquaker427 Sounds like malignant narcissism for sure
He's a narcissistic asshole
If you look him in the eyes, you can actually see what he's thinking about. DONUTS!
He sounds like a bigger Karen than Mariah. I'd have to go stare him straight in the face to see what his fat body was gonna do about it
Yngwie is a great technical guitarist that I can listen to for about 10 minutes.
You can last 10 minutes?
If that lol
Yup being that technical doesn't matter because he's a terrible composer.... He doesn't have any good songs or albums.
@@joshuafult84 Agreed. Great new speed player back in the 1980's.. It was something new at that time. But since then?.... Saw him live a couple of time between late 1990's and 2000's and nothing had changed. You hear one album or seen one show you've heard the rest. And his lyrics?.... Spare me.
His Richard-ness ruins everything
I haven't seen Yngwie in a long, long time. However, I used to write for a certain magazine and do a radio show. Album reviews, music satire, stuff like that.
As such, through the 90's until about 2007 I went to a lot of shows in this capacity and I would do interviews, have a +1, backstage passes and all those sexy things.
So, being a fellow Swede, I was excited to meet Yngwie. I was supposed to interview him and was waiting in his tour bus talking to members of his road crew. They all hated him and told stories about him getting blackout drunk, saying the most repugnant shit to people when not being wholly apathetic.
How much did his own road crew hate him? They pissed in his drinks, and he was too drunk to notice it. I wouldn't have believed it had I not seen this happen personally. I attempted to do the interview, after waiting for nearly two hours, but his rambling was incoherent, and when he wasn't speaking nonsense he was just a recalcitrant prick. Total waste of time on my end.
He may have consumed gallons of actual piss in his life, but he's still a fuckin' brilliant guitarist.
Now that's a story!
Haha, he's not a brilliant guitarist just because he can shred. Any teenager locked in a room with a guitar for long enough could accomplish what he has in his pathetic career. If even half of what you say is true, he needs to take a serious fall off stage and not get up again.
@@honeypotusername are you such a teenager? Have you spent sufficient time locked in a room to have developed such a talent? I'd love to write about it.
It's like the Mary's Room of guitarists: having never seen or done shit, has learned everything in a vacuum yet also emerged a critic as well.
@@jasonedward6993 why are you defending him?
@@jasonedward6993if you genuinely believe that he's "brilliant" because he sat down and learned scales, whoever had you on their payroll for years was being robbed by a hack. I wouldn't pay you to write about the sonic profile of my most recent fart. He has some of the most unoriginal, stilted, artificial-sounding guitar playing I've ever heard in my life. I'd rather listen to Post Malone play guitar; at least then I might be entertained.
yngwie becomes more and more the steven seagal of guitarplaying 🙈
Why are you so mean....to Steven Seagal?
@@Siloguy 😂
Perfect 🤣
Genial comparison 😂😂😂
While you losers sit around whining
I saw Yngwie in the early 2000's. He was fantastic, but you could tell that the person in the building that loved him the most was Yngwie Malmsteen.
yeah yngwies great just ask him😂
😅
Well I heard Yngwie J. Malmsteen is a great interviewer and shows his personal side whenever he hears or shares a common area with his best friend Yngwie Malmsteen. I reckon both have had their differences over the years but they have gotten back on friendly terms.
I'm glad I saw his best iteration that was with Joe Lynn Turner.
I went to see him live some time around 2008. The main thing I remember from that gig is that he did about ten mins of random shredding, not part of a song or with the band, just playing as fast as he could at the front of the stage. I say ten mins, felt like an eternity. The whole crowd was noticeably bored by the end of it (this was a gig with no support act or anything else going on BTW, these were people who paid to go see Yngwie and they were bored of his noodling). Looked around and most people were stood, eyes glazed over, not really paying that much attention any more. Think he noticed because he seemed to be getting angrier as he went on. They got back in to the songs and everybody perked up. After 3/4 songs he did the same thing again...
Also the gig was already mad loud to start with and he was there angrily gesturing to the sound people to turn it up several times,. My ears were ringing after even though I had plugs in.
Was a great show otherwise. He and the band performed really well and he was very entertaining to watch on stage but man those long noodling solos really dragged the show down.
I’ll never forget a story from one of my old Guitar Center bosses. He and his band was touring with Yngwie and his band. On the last day of the tour, my bosses band mate got so pissed at Yngwie that he went into his trailer and pissed in his cowboy boots. Wish I could of been a fly on the wall for Yngwies reaction.
Your username reminded me:
Yngwie has 1954 Strats...that he scalloped the fucking fretboard on.
There's an awful lot of musicians who really dislike Yingyang & they're exceptionally good musician's to say the least.
I don't care how well he can play, he's
lord douché.
judging a musician on shit other than music is fucking retarded.......that being said,after odyssey yngwie kind of pressed repeat
He can only shred. That's literally it.
@honeypot username : I really don't understand why anyone would be the least bit enamored with Yingyang.
He's arrogant, obnoxious, narcissistic & treats fans like trash.
He's doing the same shit as Kevin DuBrow was in 1983 & 1984 & that killed that band. So, I don't understand why he hasn't been pilloried for his idiotic antics ?
The greatest reason for the demise of Quiet Riot was Kevin DuBrow dumping on all the other bands at the time. His band members were after him constantly to cool it with trashing other bands. They knew he was becoming a liability & his mouth was going to ruin everything. That's exactly what happened, after the Condition Critical tour wound down, they were finished.
The sad part was that he could sing & he had one hell of a band backing him. If he just played it cool & stuck to what they were doing instead of what everyone else was doing, things could have been very different for them beyond 1984/1985.
@honeypot username : Do you remember Quiet Riot ? I'm dating myself, a first gen Banger. You do come across as someone who knows what they're talking about. Shredding isn't everything, it's a piece of the songs structure, not the song itself. Some wouldn't understand what you meant by your statement. A fairly typical Banger will break down the song's they really like.
Even those that don't play an instrument will break it down into it's composition.
As a side note there was a mini-documentary on Heavy Metal.
Multiple clinical studies came to the same conclusion. All the stereotypes were wrong & they were surprised how Bangers interact amongst their own people. It took over forty years & multiple studies to figure out what we knew all along. Go figure ?
Cheers from 🇨🇦🤘
@@honeypotusername Exactly. The guy is a fast Shredder that is it. Maybe that was a big thing back in the early 1980's but it got old very fast. It says why he has been performing to crowds less than 1000 ppl since. But whatever stroke his ego.
Yngwie Malmsteen should be turned into the Karen term for guitarists
Hasnt it been that way since the 1980s?
Calm down there Yngwie
hilarious!,
You couldn't hold his coffee. Keep typing lady
@@davidaston5773 Keep typing lady. Lol grow that
This isn't just about Yngwie. This is also very much about RUclips copyright claims. It hits on more than one level. Great work!
Hopefully bungie is successful in their claim against youtube and is able to force youtube to enforce better and easier to understand copyright rules.
It's about Yngwie. Thats why it only seems to happen with certain artists. Yngwie, Eagles, and a few others push things way beyond youtube policy
yeah they just down right refuse to enforce anything with any logic or common sense on this website. too many people abusing copyright strikes and nothing happening.
Good thoughtful comment. Well said.👍🏼
Not everyone exploits RUclips's copyright policies. Malmstein does. It's on him and all about him.
There's no denying that he's an incredible guitar player and had some great albums early on. I really just lost all respect for him after finally seeing him in concert for the first and last time. He didn't play any of the classics. Just non stop boring shredding arpeggios in your face. Just him and a bass player and drummer. With the bass player doubling on vocals and keyboard. Never seen a more public display of complete narcissism.
Yngwie calls it "improvising all the time" when he plays the same 5 riffs over and over again for an hour.
I got to see him perform at the old New England Patriots stadium in 85'. Keel opened (Steeler) and then he played ahead of Aerosmith on their Done With Mirrors tour. It was a great show, and my 15 year old self had a great time! Too bad you were born too late to see it, but I enjoyed watching your video. 🤘
Side note: He was a diva even back then, and apparently nothing has changed.
i think i read in an interview it was Jimmy Page was who he modeled his "diva" antics after ?
In 2013 I got a letter sent to my actual mailbox 📫 from Malmsteen & his legal team threatening to sue me if I didn't take my 8 guitar lessons down I worked on for my subscribers. He's an arrogant unlikeable guy for sure. I grew up playing as a kid in the 80s and he was INCREDIBLE then. But after getting threatened by him and team I gladly took my lessons down and never told any of my students about him(not that he needs me but he really hurt himself more than me. Great video man.
Why? Did you use some of his songs in your lessons? Because if it was just licks or parts of solos, that can't be copywritten as far as I know.
Saw Yngwie a week ago. Better now than ever. More intense. I love him.
@@dowens3781 it was just me teaching parts of his songs. I didn't have any of his actual music playing in the background at all.
Yngwie has become a " Caricature "...............of himself !!!!! Listen to his solos, how he puts in more and more notes, it`s fucking unbearable, and proof, that he`s one of the biggest egos around, since he can`t even stay true, to his own god damn solos !!!!!!
@@onkelmarvin8360 Always been this way. He's great and you will always be nothing. Just saw him last week. Fucking nuts!
Thank you for all the exposure and for lending your platform to me like this. I'm glad so many people agree with my take and that you won't take shit from Yngwies management
Buy some donuts on me.
😆 Great video, man.
So it's you then .I'll be goin your way next 😁👍
@@Rapture-Farms its a great little channel. He has his head screwed on. Reckon you'll like it!
don't give KDH money, he will only go blow it all on whimsy!
@@blacktoothfox677 🤣I'll keep that in mind lol 😆
Long ago the Devil said to Yngwie: "I'll give you all the speed and technique that you desire, in exchange for your soul." and Yngwie sealed the deal, but he thought that he would have to give up his soul when he dead, but the Devil took it right away.
that's why his playing has no soul or feeling to it. and that's why he's jelly of Gary.
he's so sterile he should be a surgeon. "nurse...100cc of donits, stat"
Hi, watched some of your videos and you won a subscriber! You're doing a useful and great job! Keep up the good work.
I like to imagine what would happen if Yngwie was a leader of a country. Absolutely Terrifying.
Literally 1984
I mean, that's basically what happened in the USA 2017-21...
The county you're looking for is canada.
@@richardharrold9736 here we go 🍿
Free donuts for all!
The fact you can copyright claim something without actually proving you are the copyright holder shows what a joke the RUclips system is
I visited this one music shop where I used to order stuff from and I asked why they include Yngwies pictures in the orders. They replied that he once had guitar clinic/fan meetup there and just brought them big ass box of his pictures and they didn't know what else to do with them all. The box was so big that they have been handing the pictures out for over 10 years.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the vid. Watching it makes me realize how lucky I was to see him live in the 80s. Twice, no less. Rising Force and Marching Out tours. Sunken Garden Theater in San Antonio. That kid was actually being nice, it was really all downhill after Trilogy. But you can’t take away the fact that he was an absolute god on guitar. And one of the very few who is recognizable from the very first note. Sadly though, it is true that he let his ego get the better of him, and is now a parody of a parody of himself.
I like Yngwie just like the next guy, but this is necessary on principle. Good on you KDH for having a spine and sticking up for a small creator.
You like him just as much as the next guy, so, not at all?
In '92 YJM played a bar in Montreal, Que. CANADA for the Fire and Ice tour. The opening act was a Montreal band called Sinister Fiend. The guitar player was an ambidextrous monster. The band mysteriously had their plug pulled half way through their set.
Seems like Yngwie shit his pants
Sounds like someone didn't want to be upstaged
I'm one of the two women who actually was an Yngwie fan (but I never bought the leggings, lol). I saw Yngwie live in the 80s, bought his music, and was a guitarist who was very influenced by him, and even had a bit of a crush on him. I met him at a supposed guitar clinic at Robbie's Music in Nanuet, NY, and he decided to not play and just give autographs, instead. I asked him why he wasn't going to be playing and he said "That wasn't part of the deal." Even though that's what everyone was there to see. It was at that moment, my respect for him started to sour. I since just see him as an obnoxious, vapid, douchebag whose music I can't even tolerate for 5 seconds. Thank you for this video. I'm sorry he's too big of a baby to handle honest criticism.
That wasn't part of the deal, what is the problem ? l
Not my problem. He lost fans by reneging on his agreement to do a guitar clinic which WAS part of the deal as it stated on my ticket purchase.
Might I perchance put you on to Jake Pitts, Eric Gales, Kingfish Ingram, and Jackie Venson? Potential new guitar heros and crushes. Lol. 😉
Also, I'm sorry for what you had to experience. Having someone you look up to and like just being the worst thing since taxes must've been the mood whiplash of the CENTURY. 😔
@@ClochardCeleste It was supposed to have been a *guitar clinic* ... that's the problem! You must be a vapid douchebag like Yngwie if you think that only signing autographs while at a *guitar clinic* is okay.
My friend has a "Steeler" album... signed first by Yngwie... who put "Moo" next to Ron Keel... Ron Keel signed it with an arrow pointing to Yngwie saying "Dick". Appears somethings will never change. April is at it again..... (sigh)
4:36 Michael McKeon is the BEST! I did a show with him in 2016 at the Wilshire Ebell Theater in LA for a fundraiser called "The Peter Boyle Multiple Myeloma Foundation." I was the drummer for the late Fred Willard.
He played an INCREDIBLE acoustic solo set. As a guitarist, songwriter, and performer, he's by far more than the joke they sell that is Spinal Tap.
I told him that I was suddenly afraid to go out because, as a drummer, I might spontaneously combust. He looks me in the eye and says, "You don't have a contract. You'll be fine."
On top of that, McKean's an incredible dramatic actor. He's amazing as Chuck McGill on Better Call Saul.
Fred Willard too ! Amazing and well done !
I nearly always think of him for being in Short Circuit 2.
Oh Dude ... This resonates - I lost my VIRGINITY to Spinal Tap!!
I had the misfortune of meeting Yng on a G303 tour stop in Seattle. During the event, just before the show started, I actually ran into his keyboard player and that guy was actually cool AF! We chatted for a brief sec and he was just as real as could be. After the gig, admittedly I wasn't exactly sober, myself and a friend and I are waiting outside the back of the venue (Paramount, I do believe) between the back doors and the tour busses. Now, mind you, I have no idea about this guy's reputation or personality or even a whole lot of his music. I can tell you that his show was actually quite good and his band were pretty freaking on fire that night and he actually did play his ass off and it was definitely a, both, LOUD and impressive performance. So, out walks Yng - he's got a babe in one arm, holding a glass of champagne in his other hand and he's got those Texas-cop sunglasses on. I'm right in front of him and everyone behind me was yelling, cheering, and screaming for his autograph. He seems like he's in a good mood and he was very much a 'trapped in the 80's rockstar', no doubt. Now I'm not gonna sit here and fat-shame the guy 'cause that's not cool but yeah - he's sweaty all over and he could probably benefit from a cardio regimen - but to his credit, he's wearing leather pants and boots and was recently underneath hot incandescent lights during a live show - anyone's gonna be sweaty. Nevertheless, here he comes - he's got the half-cocked smile and he's about ready to sign autographs. Well... everyone's yelling "ING-VEY, ING-VEY.." but I see the programs with the name "YNGWIE". So, I ask quite casually, "Hey." He looks right at me. And I go, "is it ING-VEY or ING-WEEE?" with that sour lip look of disgust he looks at everyone and then looks to me and says "it's ING-VEY!!" and he storms off! My bro starts laughing his ass off... I got about a hundred people absolutely pissed off at me that I (inadvertently) clowned a legend. And honestly, that was not my goal. I just didn't know. Oh, well. F it if he can't take a joke! Nevertheless, I did get to meet Steve Vai and (my absolutely favorite) Joe Satriani and both those guys were super cool and about as real as it gets!
Steve Vai is such a cool dude. Yngwie wishes he had half the talent Vai has and a fraction of his cool.
Learn to use paragraphs.
@@tdang9528 At least he used punctuation, so it's still easy to read.
Ing vey or ing wee
don't worry i won't get mad
so you just assumed everyone chanting was wrong?
Yngwie sat in with my rock band in Hallandale Fl. Right before we we all walked out together, he stops and says " hold on, I've got to give my 20 thousand dollar watch to my valet before we play" we hit the stage and he says "what do you want to play" we knew none of his stuff, I said " how about Stormy Monday Blues" we did it and he killed it.
You got to love Yngwie but he has seriously kind of become the Steven Seagal of guitar heroes.
Yngwie is not only blocking the criticism, also the GOOD covers of his songs, for example, the Brazilian guitarist Cesario Filho who plays excellent and BETTER like a Young Yngwie has had many of his cover videos taken down by him and his management
Which is so stupid - it's like free advertising for their product, but their ignorance and ego sabotage it.
yes, it is a shame, far beyond the sun by Cesario was just divine
@@GuitarONtatami Exactly!, it was even BETTER than the original, that's why Yngwie got jealous and took it down
Great player indeed this Cesario, i didn't know he had his covers down... thanks for the info ... Btw, if you haven't done it yet, please check the Greek guitarist Panos Arvanitis on youtube, he's on the same "level" than Cesario, Yngwie style but no covers... and now i know why....
@@christosalexiou8979 Thanks, I'll check the greek guy too
I love how you are standing up for six string t.v. I love that channel, I am also glad other youtubers stood up and with you when a certain guitar company owner tried to come at you. Rock on both of you!!!!
Im a music teacher. A co worker of mine said him and his friend went up to Yngwie to ask for an autograph at a guitar convention. Apparently he ended up talking to them about his rolex watches and how expensive they are, then told him he didin't have anymore time to give them an autograph.
As a casio watch wearer, I don’t get expensive watches. I am 53, I have a nice mechanical watch. They r pretty. They r a rip off. They r theft targets, and in some places of the world will get u killed
been watching a lot of your videos lately... keep up the great work KDH
That’s like the world’s greatest roast. He should feel honored like any other famous person who gets a roast.
I'm one of the lucky ones to have seen him play in his prime. I went to his first ever UK gig at the Marquee Club in London in 1985. His playing was absolutely jaw dropping. Never seen anything like it. It was also unbelievably loud, louder than any other gig I've been to.
Because you suppose to not want hear anything afterwards anyway
I always said 1984-85 Malmsteen was the greatest "lead" guitarist, single note to note player I've ever heard
I saw him in the 80s too and he was fantastic, that's the sad part WAS!
you obviously never went to any Motorhead or Saxon concerts 79 onwards till maybe 81, they were both outdoing each other to be the loudest band in the world and you couldn't hear properly for 3 days after. best days of my life, you could could still see major bands in smaller venues.
@@paulmorgan8254 I did see Motorhead play, as well as hundreds of other gigs. As I said, nothing was anywhere near as loud as this was.
I started listening to YM when the first Alcatrazz album came out. Yeah, I am that old. And a guitar player. And a musicologist. So, him going solo, doing the classical music / heavy rock / guitar virtuoso thing, that was unbelievable at the time. Then. Though i got a first idea about his ego, when I bought the album - it says all songs by YM. Nope. He takes an original baroque piece by Albinoni and claims he has written it? Wow. Moving on. I got my first crisis (ahem) when JSSoto left the band. Ok, Trilogy is good. And I really, really dig the JLTurner (also cringe-worthy, I know) album Odyssey. I thought him saved. But no, Turner left. In comes Goran Edman, whos voice I knew from MADISON (check out the track 'Oh, Rendezvous* from 'Best In Show'). So, I loved these albums with Edman, too. Afterwards... I lost interest, tbh. I happened to see him live, once, at a German Festival. 2 songs in I left for the press tent. Sorry, but that was just pure ego, showing off, and showing his worst side. A pity. What a gifted, talented, inspiring guitar player he once was.
I have a question: if you cover a yingway song (or eagles and others lmao), but don't say who you're covering in the title/disc/comments, how long would it take legalbots to find the video? What if it was quieted and put as a background for a video?
These questions drive me to practice guitar - without a metronome (to make sure my tempo is undetectable, y'know)
My buddy lived around the corner from YJM and as we drove by his house he came driving up in his Ferrari. We pulled up had a few words dude seemed cool. Later my buddy went by his house and he signed some old guitar magazines with YJM articles. This was early 2000s. Not a fan of his music or the attitude towards other musicians but the guy has his place in guitar history.
True. I live in North Miami Beach. He’s pretty cool for somebody who is approached by complete strangers all the time.
Not really. If everything else about him didn't happen then yeah. But who you are matters. Plus when you play like 💩 for many years, ppl forget how good you once were.
I'm so glad I've never been a fan of the turd 💩
Yngwie is arguably my favorite guitarist and has been a huge inspiration for my playing since I was a kid, so it really sucks to here about his attitude throughout the years and see his current actions.
But good on everyone for calling him out on it. As much as I love a lot of the music he's made, it's no justification for being the complete ass he's made of himself
The music is not the man. Otherwise no one would listen to Michael Jackson.
@@sqlb3rn MJ is innocent though
He’s “arguably your favorite”??? Who tf are you arguing with over your own opinion…
@@dusty3913 Myself obviously. He's tied up with Michael Romeo and Christian Muenzner for favorite.

@@BorkBorkDoggo well said!
Bro I'm literally ADDICTED to your content rn. Great stuff, keep it up. Proud of you.
Almost every musician, especially one whose career has spanned 40 years, and drank a lot of booze, is going to have unflattering stories. For every negative story I’ve heard great stories describing a warm and grateful man. It’s all part of the legend. Love him or hate him, he is who he is.
He came here, achieved every immigrants dream, and changed the electric guitar forever. I’m sure if our lives were put under the microscope, a RUclipsr could make an unflattering video about us.
The important thing about criticism is not who is doing it, but how you react to it. By censoring criticism, even ones which remotely are about you, you are opening a whole uphill battle you can't win. A good example of how you deal with criticism is MAB. He just laughs at himself and recognizes some of the ridiculous stuff he did in the 90s was necessary because otherwise he wouldn't stand out. On another end you have guys like Yngwie and Don Healey, the latte is so litigious that he will eventually start a lawsuit against himself.
My favorite Malmsteen song is 'Ship of Fools'... I just never imagined he was at the front of the ship, arms outstretched like Rose on the Titanic, lol.
IMO - The trip about this is if they (team Malmsteen) whould have just chilled with letting opinion be just that and not jam-up channels with strikes, the negative posting would most likely fade in time. But now the RUclips push-back kraken has been released and it's probably is going to lead to a major brand-reputation crisis management test for Malmsteen's management.
Love your videos dude! \m/
He's released the fucking fury!
Agreed! BTW "Still here \m/"
a legend appears in the comments
Hope so.
YJM's first 3 to me were Epic. I was a teenager when Yngwie hit the scene and he kicked ass back then.
I saw him live a few times and I have to concur with this video
Hey what was the video called where you were talking about this guy who butchers guitars and puts them back together and sells them on his website?
just imagine a parrallel worlds where he would just says "yeah, sry guys, I'm getting old, not always on the top anymore", I'm sure 100% people would totally understand and get over it considering the amazing career he got behind him.
I don't understand how you can have that carreer, yet, end your life like you've been the drunk solo guitarist dad of a cover band for the last 25 years.
Even saying/doing nothing in response to criticism would suffice.
Frantically trying to watch this before it gets taken down again😂
Whatever he is as a person, he does deserve credit for being one of the guitarists that raised the bar. Much like Van Halen and Randy Roads had done years before. He wasn't the first nor necessarily the best to play in a neoclassical style. But he did bring it to the forefront. Would we really have had all the Shrapnel artists if Yngwie had not burst onto the scene? He is probably a great example of "Never meet your heros. They tend to disappoint you in person."
First time I heard of Yngwie he was playing for Alcatraz. I was a young bass player, Iron Maiden and Rush were my teachers but I played with a guitar player who LOVED Yngwie and went to one of the States, (I'm Canadian), to see them somewhere. Seatle I think, could be wrong, probably wrong.. lol. Eventually saw him in his early solo career in Montreal around 1990-'91, (yes, I'm old dammit.... lol) 🤘😎🤘
Nothing like RUSH...RIP Neil.
The PROGFATHERS.
Learning bass from RUSH AND MAIDEN ....NICE!
Yngwie has released the same album 22 times. It takes a very, very small person to insult Gary Moore.
Exactly. Show me the last time Yngwie performed in front of more than a 100 ppl.
Right on the money. He’s mierda
Once you've listened to his first three albums there's really no need to listen to any other yngwie. And Steeler was just him pretending to be Ritchie Blackmore.
@@JaidezillaThree?
You're being VERY kind.
Malmsteen released one MASTERPIECE & a good 2nd Álbum.All the resto os rubish.
Is not really like that, same thing you can say for Satriani if you feel music like that no? Let's be reasonable, all songs is different with a single point, SOUL...those solos all of them almost is from soul really, is sad, is broken soul, if you don't feel that, I'm sorry for you, and let's see music no man ..man, can be sometimes sick off,but his music have very big emotional sensivity
Yngwie has been pretending to be Ritchie Blackmore and Uli Jon Roth for his whole career.
Blackmore is a renowned piece of work himself, however, Uli always comes across as a decent human being. I'm lucky to have seen them all, Yngwie in 1985 and 1988 and he was amazing, saw Blackmore with Rainbow in 1983 and Deep Purple in 1985 and he was dreadful and Uli with Electric Sun in 1983 and he was different gravy. Funny similarities between them, I think both Blackmore and malmsteen have been in decline as players for many many years, I think in Yngwie's case it was first noticeable after his car crash. Then if you look at Blackmore and Uli, they are both very avant garde. Neither Malmsteen or Uli can sing at all (one can assume that Blackmore can't either) but at least he was clued up enough to employ a singer. All great as players.
@@davidyates8880 I wouldn’t really compare Malmsteen to Blackmore, unless your barometer for musicianship is arpeggio playing. Blackmore was a musical innovator and one of the founding fathers of modern hard rock heavy metal. He also blew 95% of his contemporaries out of the water as a player.
To come from a childhood of listening to 50s bands and eventually write “Gates Of Babylon” is unbelievable and his impact on rock guitar is incalculable.
Yngwie grew up listening to Blackmore and would eventually parlay that into being a stagnant, self-important blowhard who was a punchline before the year 2000 and nearly forgotten by 2022.
@@davidyates8880 Blackmore wrote and co-wrote memorable, life long hits.
Yngwie hasn't written one note that sold albums beyond his fan boys.
Incomparable guitarists.
@@funnydick8939 far different backgrounds, although they both vibe with classical music, yngwie s influences are Ritchie and Uli Jon Roth, mainly, both players he got to meet personally in the future, but not while he was crafting his style, on the other hand, Ritchie learned from the mighty Big Jim Sullivan, a superb-lative teacher and a jack of all trades on guitar. Theres no way in hell yngwie could learn how to make a decent song like Ritchie. And i worship Yngwie, but there s a reason why Ritchie s music is so revered by zillions of ppl to this day. Even that monster talent Uli Jon Roth is, hasnt come yet with such massive tunes, and he was part of fucking Scorpions (i love them too), a hell of a band with a fairly great ability to make hits. I can live with that, and the fact Uli s music and yngwie s, while great, it's just something else when it comes to making songs that stand the test of time, their music do it for me, but what Ritchie got from Big Jim was hitting the jackpot. Thing is, those three cats are their own thing in their own league by their own right. like em or not.
@@mansquatch7433 oh, bro. Even Uli Jon Roth couldnt hold a candle to prime Ritchie (69-72), rainbow Ritchie s a better composer, but his playing suffered for it. And i don't mind. Rainbows music, any song,any album, any era, never fails print a smile in my face, automatically. The man in black s a genius.
I was deeply inspired and moved by that track...and his song far beyond the sun helped me grow as a musician with the harmonic minor scale.
New to you, but I love your stuff, man 👍
I was able to see yngwie live in the 80's.
He was opening for somebody. I think it was iron maiden.
He played a lot of notes.
And that was just the first 5 seconds....
(with Oven Wilson voice) Wow, that's a lot of notes. Wow...
Love this as a past yngwie fan . It's honest it's critical and it's reality. It all.ends with eclipse. Sad he cares nothing about his fans and his past legacy so he deserves every bit of this stuff. This is what he has done to his past band members. I wish there was more people speaking the truth. Great job guys.
A good friend of mine sat in front of Yngwie Malmsteen, on a plane circa 2003. My friend Patrick told Yngwie that he was a fan and admired his style. Yngwie responded thank you, then started speaking Nordic in front of Patrick, but being a man with photographic memory (true story) Patrick responded back in Swedish, to which Yngwie started speaking Italian, another of the 8 languages my friend speaks. Not saying anything against Yngwie Malmsteen, but the way Patrick explained Yngwie's annoyance gave me a hearty laugh, whilst sipping on single-malt, Speyside Scotch with Patrick. The man rewrote the book on rock guitar, whilst everyone else was still trying to be Van Halen - also brilliant. Peace
You cannot expect the same fire from any musician 40 years past their prime. The same can be said of TV shows like The Simpsons & SNL. Enjoy what they gave you, not what they're giving you now.
Even if you don't the same fire, you could at least have some creativity and do something different. Even if it's not up to the same standard as the old stuff, at least there would be something new to hear.
Yngwie's harsh words towards Phil Anselmo's vocals are fucking hilarious since his own lead vocals on his last few solo albums are legitimately some of the worst I have EVER heard. Yoko Ono is unironically a much better singer than Yngwie.
Yngwie Malmstein, you've been served...
Can't argue with you about Malmsteen's vocals but hey he wasn't lying about Phil Anselmo's terrible pipes.
Bro, that Yoko Ono comparison was gold. Well done. 👍 👏
I will take cemetery gates over yngwei dog shit any day. Don't get me started on his tonka toys drum samples
@@sqlb3rn I 2nd that bro,
Every metal guitarist goes through an "Yngwie" phase. When he was good, he was really good and every soloist wishes they could shred like that. However, they usually reach a point where they realize he's just REALLY good at arpeggio runs and his songs all sound the same. He can only do what he can do. He's awesome at it, but it's a small tool box to draw from.
He's definitely the biggest tool in that box xD
he's the mike-tyson, the cassius clay-of-modern-frickin'-music, okay?
What a stupid fcking comment. Yngwie was an innovator. If thats all you hear you are seriously musically retarded.
@@tinfoilhatter hardly
who's the m-v-p, if not the malmsteen then, jeeves? hahaha~
WOHOW! This is new to me. Just came from Rick Beato interview and found to me strange comments about Yngwie "being more friendly than ever"? What? Followed him since mid 80ies and enjoyed his stuff, moreover his solo presentations leaving a crystal clear impression of a very humble man.
It is only with these comments, first observed less than 3 hours ago, and now this video, that YT has now again taught me insightful details between black and white, about masters regardless of music, sports, politics or anything else that I now feel like I've been totally blue-eyed before.
Thanks for indeed insightful presentation - also the copy-right thing, of which I myself hit a strange wall about a decade ago, like outta nowhere, coudn't find the reason.
Goes to show you that the true character of a person comes forward in tough times, under stress (for a rock star, this means after a bad gig, or after too many drinks, etc), and not when in front of a camera doing an interview where he gets to talk about the 2 things he cares most about in this world; the guitar and himself.
what's the pedal that's been discontinued since 2005? might be a great pedal
I once was in a big music shop in Vienna - they wree showing G3 Video with Vai, Satriani and Malmsteen on a big screen and playing the music over big speakers. Vai was soloing and I was surprised at how many people and what kind of people were staring at the screen. Then Malmsteen played his part and within 30 seconds I was the only one left standing there. I thought that really summed up the man I once adored.
WARNING: This Swedish man hates donuts! Do NOT, and I repeat - do NOT bring donuts!!!
If only I had half his guitar skills, I would dress up and make a comedy tribute act 'Yngwie KrispyKreme' 🍩🧑🎤🎸 Then expect getting sued by both Malmsteen Management and KrispyKreme donuts. 😂
Malmsteen saying someone else isn't tasteful is peak richness
Yngwie is the Steven Seagal of the music world.
Holy 💩 you nailed it, 🤣😂👍
So true.
Though admittedly Malmsteen once upon a time was actually a virtuoso player.
Seagal on the other hand has never been more than a worthless piece of garbage.
Yngwie J. Dio. He hates when u post that, and bans you immediately 🤣
I`m offering one dollar to anyone who can bring me Yngwie`s fingers. My cat is hungry.
@@tfs203 Hahahaha
Bravo! Well articulated presentation. I'm 65 and have enjoyed great guitar work for decades...and play every day for my own enjoyment. I'm also a violinist. So, when I first hear Malmsteen, I'd already heard the top 50 greatest virtuoso violinists ever recorded. THAT puts his music into context. I would encourage the neo-classical guitarists out there to start digging into the stunning recordings of the all time great violinists. When you do, you'll realize that Malmsteen has only scratched the surface of how the electric guitar can be used in a classical format. Check out Heifetz playing the Tchaikovsky Concerto with Fritz Reiner conducting. Then, Itzhak Perlman playing Brahms violin concerto live in Berlin version.
lol to be fair you violinists have better instruments for that music...and I never liked it when he did solos with an orchestra, bad sound.
The violin is not a guitar, and it is unfair to compare Malmsteen to classical violinists. You are comparing apples to oranges. Malmsteen plays rock music and not classical music. You have a point, the violin is much harder to play than guitar because there are no frets. Proficiency in playing violin outweighs the proficiency of playing guitar. So, a great violinist is a much better musician than lesser-than-great guitarist.
My point is that Malmsteen needs to be judged as a rock guitarist, and NOT a classical guitarist. So, it makes no sense to compare Malmsteen to classical violinists.
Yngwie really only plays a few scales outside of the blues. His Fenders have scalloped frets so his vibrato requires minimal effort. Not to diminish his stamina for 32nd & 64th note runs which is impressive i suppose. I think in terms of technical mastery on par with the greats of violin, you have to look to the giants of gypsy jazz - Angelo DeBarre, Stochelo and Jimmy Rosenberg, Bireli Lagrene .. these players are capable of really astounding performances on instruments without electronic amplification.
@@brownholecharles Thanks for the great post. And, yes when I remember all of Yngwie's albums I remember hearing the occasional major scale, the lydian mode and maybe a few other modes but mostly I hear minor and harmonic minor scales. My point is that I cannot ever remember him modulating to other keys.
That was a fantastic video brother. Well done and I agree with everything you said he is a fantastic extremely talented player but ever since the one album that I heard yours and years ago it's so boring after a few minutes it's the same stuff over and over again where's the feeling? 🤘
I got a copyright strike for an instructional video on how to play Yngwie's song "Dreaming" - couldn't figure out why I was stricked for just a how to play video - do you think Yngwie had something to do with it?
Gotta love the donut intro. The best is that I didn’t even see it coming when you took a bite out of your donut. Also wanted to say I really like the fact that, contrary to a lot of smaller RUclipsr that use big RUclipsr names to try and make a name for themselves, you always seem to feature people with less visibility than you to none at all. I enjoy that cyber Robin Hood-ish attitude of yours. Keep up the good stuff. Cheers.
It was after listening to Yngwie's album "Fire and Ice" that got me inspired into guitar playing, into the world of music and ultimately into audio engineering, I love his music, I love his techniques he came up with,

What video is that? Every one he's made?
Yngwie's repetitive guitar playing hasn't a leg to stand on against Gary Moore. He's a poor man's Ritchie Blackmore.
It's been a life long goal of mine to be personally insulted by Yngwie. Sounds like there are ways to do it and not have to pay a Cameo fee!
Long before the albums you listed he came out with Blackstar, which you got as a plastic 45 inside of Guitar Player magazine. I can remember pulling that out, putting it on a turntable, and falling absolutely in love with guitar. With that said, by trilogy I lost all interest, but you are missing more than a few of his early albums, like No Parole for Rock and Roll by Alcatraz.
I liked Alcatrazz more than any of Yngwie’s solo stuff
Your arguments are always very well researched/balanced
"Yngwie Malmsteen leggings for all the two women that listen to his music." 😆
I was fortunate enough to see Yngwie Malmsteen and Rising Force on their debut album, in 1984. Met them after the show at the hotel parking lot. Got their autographs and chatted with Marcel Jacob(R.I.P.)and the Johansson brothers. Yngwie and Jeff Scott Soto went straight inside the hotel. Marcel and the bros were hungry, so we drove them to a Whataburger near by. True Story.
that's an awesome story! lucky!
Marcel, what a loss. Thanks for your story. Congrats for your luck.
SixStringTV nailed it. Thank you for Amplifying it!
Hamburg, Große Freiheit 36, 1998, habe Yngwie nach dem Konzert im Tourbus besucht. Er war nett und freundlich, nahm damals sogar ein Videotape von mir an. Im Prinzip ein guter Mann, mit Ecken und Kanten..

The only parody here is you.
I met him at a Generation Axe Meet and Greet in 2018. He was the only one in the band who was a total douchebag. Every one who tried to interact with him somehow was blown off by him.
He's an egotistical fat prick, and that's a fact, It really is a tragic shame! that he still tries to squeeze in them tiny silly leather pants that have always been to small for him, It's time he gave he's nan her frilly shirt back.

As Guitar Center’s Ntl Promotions Mgr. I had him play at the 1997 East Brunswick store opening. He had a case of Heineken on his rider and before he went on to play to about 80-100 people at a time, he warmed up in a back office and did his best to plow thru said case of beer in front of his wife and young son. By the time he went on, he was a sweaty mess. But he did play his ass off - for the first two 20 min sets . We circulated people in and out of the store w/ giveaways outside to let new customers in and he played subsequent sets…getting and little more bloated, sweaty, and slightly sloppy. All that said, it was an interestingly fun experience. 🤘🔥🎸
Yngwie calling someone else's playing "un tasteful" is hilarious
I thought it was very rich of him to say that Eddie Van Halen made the Strat “uncool” and that Hendrix “had no musical impact on him whatsoever” and “did not contribute to his style”, especially when there are pictures of Yngwie holding left-handed strats upside down, exactly like Hendrix.
