Yngwie Malmsteen - Little Savage

[diazluisdiaz]

So raw and virtuoso.... this is why yngwie has a place in the history of the electric guitar as one of the best

[JimiBax68]

Oh boy oh boy how i miss the early Yngwie.....

Young,Just becoming famous riding the wave at barely 22 and exploding like a rocket....

Completely destoying every renouned famous established rock guitarist with this neo classical sweeppicking deadly precision and accuracy and speed and emotion ...fire coming out of the fretboard almost...and little old me only 4.5 years younger front row witnessing all this with my mouth open and jaw dropping to the floor every single fucking time i saw him live.

[ShaneLawn]

This show is currently available on Dimeadozen in its entirety. I suggest that even casual Yngwie fans pick this one up, it's totally worth it.

[sirotahaggen]

This is the YJM that I still consider to be the best EVER!!

[robinelfstrom]

05/24/85 Stockholm, Sweden Gota Lejon, imagine he was not even 22 at the time... Just before his 22nd birthday, how sick is that!?

[dzzzt69]

OMG, I had forgotten why I used to love Yngwie. Holy Shit this is great! Yngwie hasn't done anything good (in my mind) in years. This is amazing!!!

[seba987xdc]

damn, now im picking my jaw from the floor. Ubeliveble performance.

[StanleyKu]

His sound is so saturated and filtered today that you can't here the dynamics of the notes anymore. He so much style and variety back then.

[tritonobionico]

excellent

[devtimers]

One of the greatest guitar players ever. This live little savage has it all... beautiful lyrical emotional guitar playing and insane virtuoso chops. Thank god for Yngwie.

[RobertoArceCorretjer]

That last solo... mind fucking blown

[sk1972]

Very spooky...

[willweagraff]

ahh the real thing and not a yngwie clone want a be a breath of fresh air

[Yngsatchvai]

Well his 1st 7 under Rising Force to be exact I really love all 7. Took me a while to warm up to Fire & Ice but its still great. Think the solo on Soldier Without Faith is his best!

[himoJ]

@Yngsatchvai agree! :D

[IkerSenna]

this is so fantastic, epic

[infectionsman]

1:23 holy shit, on a stratocaster

[RobertoArceCorretjer]

@infectionsman the starts are made for screaming and squealing :D

[RobertoArceCorretjer]

@RobertoArceCorretjer strats*

[infectionsman]

@RobertoArceCorretjer i know, dont ever play a different gtr!

[StanleyKu]

Im surprised he played this live. He had so much more style back then.

[perpetual61]

Yngwie was either 21 or 22 here depending on whether this was before or after June 30. I Love that He's Playing the Swedish Anthem.

[CrossTheLine1000]

what keys and modes are in this song??

[ordepcbmt]

@CrossTheLine1000 F# phrygian and B minor...

[guitarpaolo]

rare tape !!! great !!!

[playloud1622]

man i just love hes old sound just amazing he should go back to this soung and with the original rising force line up cheers from chile

check out some awesome yngwie covers on my channel studio quality

Abstract Symphony neoclassical metal from the end of the world

[SergioWW1WW2]

@playloud1622 opino lo mismo compadre, antes el tenia un sonido mucho mas oscuro y con mas clase, no tan powermetal como ahora.

[roguenation]

Some unintentional open string noise was perceptible on a few of those blindingly fast runs.

Nevertheless, a dazzlingly impressive performance.

[EgoShredder]

@roguenation

He was probably throwing the guitar around at the time as he often does!

[infectionsman]

@EgoShredder true, he did guitar spins over his back and was jumping all over the place at this time aswell

[jaktmark]

He is the best guitar player in the world...

[cammus]

Demon tapping at 4:40... sweet!

[kagatobi]

where is next Yngwie?

[encguitarist]

@kagatobi jason becker was...... in my opinion. virtuosity with lots of passion and with classical elements in his playing

[cavlovc1]

thank you for sharing this special performance treat!

[Shreddah]

I kinda miss this Yngwie, his playing and tone was much better in the 80's IMO. :(

[Yngsatchvai]

@Shreddah Kinda? I miss it so much! Glad we will forever have his 1st 3 albums  not including Steeler and Alcatraz..

[TheShredfester]

This is WICKED playing for sure!!!! Yngwie is a MONSTER!!!! My favorite Shredder and Neo-Classical Guitarist... Remember exactly where I was when I heard him for the first time,we all remember our first time!! Powerful Breathtaking Fantastic Orgasmic Ear Candy!!!!! Thanx for the post,never heard this live version before..

[mbolduc]

Just the way I remember it from his show the next year in Austin. Best Yngwie song hands down

[aphasia1972]

awesome

[aphasia1972]

yes thats him i have seen him live twice awesome guitar player out of this world buddys but surely he is going to be older and he needs to pay tribute too to mother nature when he was in his primetime he was totally awesome he is a mix of jimi Hendrix,Richie Blackmore and Paganini or Vivaldi and someJ.S.Bach and Beethoven and Mozart tooall inclusive in the more heavier way of course

[PALAZZIOOO]

В 22 года и в зените славы! Гений! Выдающийся музыкант своего времени. Не знаю, войдёт ли он в века, как его кумиры из классиков, но для гитары конца 20 века он сделал очень много. Остальные - только клоны. Ингви, ты гений!

[NisseEricsson]

God, the one and only, Mr Malmsteen. I want to be him, he is so mighty. Great recording of a great song. I wish I was like 20 years older so I could have seen him live in his prime.

[perpetual61]

Oh My ! The Neo-Classical King Playing the Swedish National Anthem. It just goes to show that you can take Yngwie Out of Sweden but You can't Take Sweden out of Yngwie!!

[thomasthor]

could this be from the Göta Lejon gig in 85?

[astrofizzi12]

really cool!!!

[moose11vt]

Wow! Love this rare Yngwie stuff. The ending from 6:19 on was awesome.

[caiodorn]

[spawnofwheezedog]

1:52 to 2:07 is probably how you say "FUCK YOU stupid guitar noobs" in Swedish.

[DobBylan]

Very nice find. He was so über awesome back then and he had so much better tone too.

[SeanPierceJohnson]

agreed...his tone isn't so f'n thin.
