this i think is QUITE a bit more interesting than a lot of what falls under the hard rock/metal banner now,lyrically and musically...i also like what i have heard of the later album with vai .
why the r u comparing alcatrazz who got a great singer and a great guitarist to a nerdy crapy band its everyone knows that graham bonnet was with rainbow b4 forming with alcatrazz youdon't have god taste in music sweet nlowe
yeah......this is nowhere near as good as Weezer's song Island In The Sun. This is pretty ridiculous, but then again almost all 80's metal is lol. These guys are a lot better than a lot of 80's metal bands though I'll give them that.
@dominic14061995 you possibly dont play guitar. this band mostly is popular to malmsteen fans as he is one of the most recognizable guitar players in history
Graham Bonnet's vocal prowess is legendary, he sang for Ritchie Blackmore and Michael Schenker two of the greatest guitar players of all time. I've had the privilege of seeing them jam in concert together. Yngwie is good also but sometimes it sounds like he's stuck in a rut (solo stuff).
When it comes to live, Bonnett sang flat 80% of the time. When he's on pitch it's fine, but just listen to "since u been gone" live and others...it hurts my ears!!!
When this came out, nobody had ever played the guitar like this. Most metal guitarists were Eddie Van Halen clones, but then Yngwie started a new revolution and the Yngwie clones started appearing. Some people said that Yngwie was a Blackmore clone but that was because they were not really listening. Yes, he looked & dressed like Blackmore, and even acted like him, but his playing was very different.
But sadly, Yngwie can't play this good anymore and probably never will again.
Graham Bonnet is a good singer despite the fact he dresses like my travel agent. The reason he never became a big star is his difficult attitude, not his voice. He has worked with talented guitar players like Yngwie Malmsteen, Steve Vai, Ritchie Blackmore, Michael Schenker, Bob Kulick and Chris Impellitteri. But he never recorded more than one album with any of them. You do the math.
@mickiew4 Maybe the band Alcatrazz was incarcerated for plagiarizing songs written by other musicians. And it wasn't just jail. It was a supermax prison. Maybe a lot of fans complained about Graham Bonnet struggling to hit the right notes in concert, but that isn't a crime. Neither is Yngwie's excessive wanking, but that didn't become an issue until after he went solo.
Graham Bonnet, is a sucky singer! You can hear him go flat in this song. Pretty pathetic, can't even stay in key on a freaking studio recording. His live shows were 100 times worse.
There's something very candid about this video. It's not like all the slick vid's of today and most times Bonnet looks quirky or they kept shots of his bad side. Lol, I'll tell ya'll the stuff that most think is cheesy is gold, as most follow what others think. This video is CLASSIC!!!! Kudos
@rotru68 Yeah, music will NEVER be he same. There are HUGE changes for the better coming for all, but it wont be classic, it'll be modern and yet still extremely powerful. I will be there, it's coming. apb
me too! lol i always laugh cuz i think of how much of a WTF moment it would be if you were in death row and you saw the priest being followed by a guitarist hahaha
Hey guys. You know what? I think if you click on that long box at the top of the page, you know next to the YOUTUBE logo, I think, you can actually type certain text in there, like say Weezer, and actually get Weezer videos. I know it's like magic. When you are done if you pull down real hard on your head by the back of your neck and open your mouth you might actually be able to . . .
@tmh1717 Here i am taking a massive Yngwie and Bonnett O.D. when a funny thing happened. I wanted to see what wikipedia had to say about this song just for shits and laughs. Got an entry for the weezer song instead. I couldn't help but reflect, reading your and the below comment, that there is one and only one that perfectly describes rivers cuomo- Twat. That said, this song always makes me think about quitting my job and moving to Thailand, which is what such righteousness ought to do.
I hear ya... MTV used to be cool when I was much younger haha.. In fact this particular vid was my first introduction to Yngwie. I still rmbr me and my bandmates hearing/watching this and going.. "Whoa! listen to this fuckin' guy play!"
funny, I had no clue this video even existed until the dudes from That Metal Show brought it into the Metal Mania rotation last night... the video....a "cheesy low-budget 80's metal video" sure, but that's what rocks most about it!...lol... and the song's just perfect... even kinda makes ya wanna hop on the next flight to somehwere sunny and tropical.. great vocals and, of course, GREAT guitarwork with Yngwie as part of the lineup for that short while... all in all, a VERY underrated classic!
id say him and eddie van halen are about neck - a - neck, think about it yngwie has the speed of 3 olympic swimmers but eddie makes up for it because of his long tapping solos and amazing sound
Also it's important to listen to the first VH albums to understand just how good ED was back then. It was a lot more than just "tapping" etc.. Live? They were just ok if not very good.. but those studio albums REALLY showed what an ambidextorous genius Ed was. No reason to really compare the 2 here.. Thanx to the poster of this vid.. this was my first hearing of Yngwie back in the early MTV days..
@ambariel i feel the same way about videos from the 80s i love how even with a low budget it can still be a great video thats not in the least bit boring :)
Hmmmmmm.. don't recall bringing up dick sizes...seems you have a bit of the big gay cock love on the brain. It's okay, Andy. Just step away from the keypad (tucked snug in the corner of your Mom's basement next to her unused sewing machine), take a look at your Ron Keel poster, have a prolonged closet-case wank to your hair metal poser icon while listening to Van Hagar's "Dreams", then sleep tight. U need 2 be fresh and alert when I place my b-fast order to you tomorrow at MickeyD's.
Not everyone who has a record deal deserves one. Keel was AMAZING. Tears Of Fire, Don't Say You Love Me, Because The Night, they had so many great songs. I'm sure your the one who blows big dicks. You started bringing up dicksucking and dick sizes when no one was talking about them FAGGOT!!!
Yngwie didn't exactly unleash the fury on this song. He just let it run around the back yard. He was very young at the time. This is an underrated song by a pretty much forgotten band. Graham Bonnet was a good singer, but had a reputation for being difficult. Maybe that is why he worked with a lot of great guitar players, but never for more than one album. I read an old interview with Yngwie. The only person he slammed was Graham Bonnet.
I will agree that Ron Keel WAS a fucking abomination. A talentless hack, and no big shock he ended up doing country music years later; the guy sold the property rights to his butthole in an attempt to become famous, jumping from band to band, lineup to lineup, and never made it. Fair enough, because he sucked. Best thing he ever did was front a band Yngwie used as a stepping stone to get HIS name out there instead of Ron's. The band was fucking named Keel, fer christs sakes!
Might just be my ears, but virtually everything I've heard Graham do...I dunno...it sounds like he's just constantly straining, and has to shout rather than sing at times because so many of the tunes seem out of his range. It was the case in Rainbow, and continued with Alcatrazz. There was that quality with the studio work, but even more so live, where he was continually struggling to sing in key. Not much of a lyricist, either. How in the hell DID he end up playing w/ high-caliber guitarists?
Catchy tune and one of my favorite by Alcatrazz. I didn't know about Yngwie until 85' when I was talking to a friend and said that I thought Rik Emmett was the most underrated guitarist and he said it was Yngwie Malmsteen. I got his debut record and I was blown away.
I just saw this video on vh1 Metal Mania and suddenly i heard a solo that sounded like Yngwie Malmsteen and a looked at the tv and couldn't believe that was Yngwie
you can recognize his playing anywhere, and thats the first time i saw him use a Flying V
haha dude that happened to me too..i was in the other room and was like, wait a minute, i only know one guy who shreds like that haha and sure enough it was him
sailll away in the island in the sun. i started listening to this song when i found the "live sentence" record in the parents closet, and loved it. great album too
Malmsteen reminded me of Ritchie Blackmore at the time. Of course, Yngwie played circles around him, but they both had a cool "gothic" feel to their playing. Every kid I knew that played guitar, including myself, locked ourself in the bedroom trying to play arpeggios and shred. I still suck at it!
You don't need to tell me about Blackmore. I own every album, my first concert, I own one of his guitars, and know damn near every Purple/Rainbow tune. Blackmore cannot play the stuff Yngwie can. Ritchie can shred, but not in the same league as Malmsteen.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Thers more 2 playing the guitar than the speed at which you can play arpegios etc blackmores an artist malmsteen just has fast fingers will never produce the music blackmore did
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Ok, so I'm the bass player for Alcatrazz. I think I'm gonna ride the A string for a while then let Graham lean on my shoulder for a minute, then try and look cool as Yngwie plays forty notes to my one. Who hired this Sweedish fucker anyway? I can see now that a long term record contract for us is not gonna happen. Ah, the joy of 15 minutes of fame.
I remember this video on the "real" MTV way back when. I was blown away by Malmsteen then, because no one had seen "that kind of guitar" before. Very cool song!

You should listen to Graham Bonnet with Chris Impelliteri. Impelliteri was amazing

I will agree that Ron Keel WAS a fucking abomination. A talentless hack, and no big shock he ended up doing country music years later; the guy sold the property rights to his butthole in an attempt to become famous, jumping from band to band, lineup to lineup, and never made it. Fair enough, because he sucked. Best thing he ever did was front a band Yngwie used as a stepping stone to get HIS name out there instead of Ron's. The band was fucking named Keel, fer christs sakes!

What does Ron Keel have to do with this band? He had his own band at the time. Yes, Yngwie and Ron Keel were in Exciter and that is it.

Might just be my ears, but virtually everything I've heard Graham do...I dunno...it sounds like he's just constantly straining, and has to shout rather than sing at times because so many of the tunes seem out of his range. It was the case in Rainbow, and continued with Alcatrazz. There was that quality with the studio work, but even more so live, where he was continually struggling to sing in key. Not much of a lyricist, either. How in the hell DID he end up playing w/ high-caliber guitarists?
terrywatt69 3 years ago
Catchy tune and one of my favorite by Alcatrazz. I didn't know about Yngwie until 85' when I was talking to a friend and said that I thought Rik Emmett was the most underrated guitarist and he said it was Yngwie Malmsteen. I got his debut record and I was blown away.

@zoastev Are you sure that VH! has a show called Metal Mania?
I haven't seen it... VH1 resembles MTV with all of the shitty programming that they broadcast day in And day out

Malmsteen reminded me of Ritchie Blackmore at the time. Of course, Yngwie played circles around him, but they both had a cool "gothic" feel to their playing. Every kid I knew that played guitar, including myself, locked ourself in the bedroom trying to play arpeggios and shred. I still suck at it!
fxe1200 3 years ago 3
NOBODY played circles around Blackmore... have you ever listened to stargazer ?
snowarrow04 3 years ago
You don't need to tell me about Blackmore. I own every album, my first concert, I own one of his guitars, and know damn near every Purple/Rainbow tune. Blackmore cannot play the stuff Yngwie can. Ritchie can shred, but not in the same league as Malmsteen.

Thers more 2 playing the guitar than the speed at which you can play arpegios etc blackmores an artist malmsteen just has fast fingers will never produce the music blackmore did

Ok, so I'm the bass player for Alcatrazz. I think I'm gonna ride the A string for a while then let Graham lean on my shoulder for a minute, then try and look cool as Yngwie plays forty notes to my one. Who hired this Sweedish fucker anyway? I can see now that a long term record contract for us is not gonna happen. Ah, the joy of 15 minutes of fame.
