Graham Bonnet, Yngwie Malmsteen - Since You Been Gone

[rockonederboii]

The people who think yngwie is a showboat are the same people that think Justin Beiber is the next Elvis.

[IsaTehGothicMando]

whoever was mixing the sound on this did an AWFUL job

[ponchorp]

FLYING V???????? Malmsteen playing a Flying V??????

[jettablak]

Bonnet sings this song like he's mad at it.

[1ChillRebel]

Check out the Brian May version of this song with Cozy Powell on Drums here on YouTube....

[ArpeggioBear]

when the fat dude was still skinny

[N0tsaved]

@tatemalmsteen

I agree. Sure he loves (almost said "loved") showing off what he clearly practices every single day. Same with the speed, he was influenced by the baroque period in orchestral music which featured complex melodies like Vivaldi's winter.

Those songs aren't toe-tappers, yet they're are still amazing pieces, like Malmsteen.

[TheWitchOvAgnesi]

LOL, I bet the FOH soundman had Graham on 2 or 3 at most.

What power...

[1robbie55382]

malmsteen's just a fat ass drunk and repetitive as all hell. should let the 80's go.

[tatemalmsteen]

@1robbie55382 Malmsteen hasn't had a drink in years.He also has legions of fans all over the world and makes a great living at what he does.I'm sure he will take your advice under consideration.LOL

[shoofercat]

Sorry its BACK TO SHALLABAL

[shoofercat]

Great vocals from Mr bonnet a much underrated vocalist 10/10 but

after ten mins listening to malmsteen I am bored, talented as he is, he lacks soul and depth for me. playing modes scales arpeggios at light speed is not what its about. Stevie ray vaughn Gary more Mark knopfler Satriani can all play fast but I would say that they are way better as they empart there fellings into the music that they play at what ever speed. Check out BACK TO SHALLABALL.. malmsteen gets a shoofercat 5 /10

[TheRickc67]

i love grahambonnet's

theatrics to this song .

[bigmoney4635]

if ace ventura and rick astley had a butt-baby it would be graham bonnet

[Oxpost]

I really can't see what the big fuss is about when it comes to Malmsteen. I find his guitar playing repetetive, boring and just too flashy. In my opinion, guys like Knopfler, Clapton, Gary Moore etc. are way better.

[exitplan2]

boy can that jim carey sing

[kmarcar]

Graham shouldn't have to yell out the song over Yngwie's playing. He is extremely arrogant, but I have to agree, he's one of the best guitarists in the world.

[01mogart]

@kmarcar Since Graham Bonnet taught himself to sing well above his actual octave he has to put a lot of power into it to force his voice that high. I like his singing but you NEED a loud band to go with it.

[dataghost196]

The ego makes for a guy that's impossible to work with...why do you think Yngwie hasn't been a constant guitarist in ANY band? His ego has harmed his career more that anything else...

[3irishreds]

I think I was at this concert... if it was in Hartford, CT, Malmsteen did a solo that was so loud, Graham actually said to the audience, "I keep telling him he's too f''ing loud, but he doesn't listen!" And Graham dedicated this song to my first husband, Ian Broad.

[thenicedudejay]

i love the story about the "unleash my fu***ng fury " in an plane to tokyo , when he thought he owned the plane & all passengers in it. lol , an ego & self confidence bigger than the universe !! he is a great guitar player though :-D

[kranen1]

@empipemp Malmsteen is way better guitarist than Blackmore ^^

[badgerman2010]

Brilliant singer - DTE is a classic lp.

YM is a great guitarist, but Ritchie just had a magic in his playing that few have & YM would agree probably

[cast390]

Pause @0:41 looks like Jim Carey

[NTC335]

名曲だぁね☆

[Gookbuster1]

Truly awful.Malmsteen just cant stop wanking over everything.Has to said Graham bonnet needs wanking over.

[turockandar]

No-one can hold a candle to Richie Blackmoore!!!!!

[diagreen]

LOVE G BONNET.malmsteens ok but few payers on earth are at blackmores level as far as talent goes.I read once that after y malmsteen left bonnet he said."iv come to the conclusion that G BONNET IS not a very good singer"

[Quilbo]

Bonnet is awesome

[mastershake2879]

Yngwie doing his best Michael Schenker* impression...no, not the leather jacket and "V", i mean he's playing like he's drunk...ZING

[GameJourney]

Yngwie sounds like Randy Rhoads' spiritual successor here.

[Flankersquirrels]

As usual a bloody murder of Blackmore’s classic work by Malmsteen. At least he could have played the Stratocaster in place of that horrible sounding imitation of the Flying V.

[moleman1996]

@Flankersquirrels it really is awful isn't it! It doesn't even sound like the same song :/

[bertman668]

@Flankersquirrels This shit blows cock, anything would be better than this asshole play "music"

BTW: Go fuck yourself asshole

[philosopher2king]

Graham Bonnet my ass - that's friggin' Bill Pullman!

I'm joking of course, this song kicks ass but this isn't the best version.

[BobCubTAC]

@philosopher2king It sure is better than the Donnington version heard on Finyl Vinyl, though.

[fulhambob]

Extraordinary hair.

[LucasEletricGuitar]

anyone knows what guitar is he playing??

[gonlaz]

Well, Graham shoulda left his shades on - he fuckin looks like Jim Carrey

"LET ME ASS YOU A QUESTION AHHH AHAHAHAHHAHAHA'

[arkangel7j]

yup, that was a lil pansified & goofy lookin 

[CameronWasmund]

Only Malmsteen can make 3 powerchords a 15 second tapping solo.

[infectionsman]

Ego? Its called playing it to the crowd!

[tericson100]

Not Impellitteri. Yngwie all the way on this one. Although Alcatraz has had it's share of great guitarists. Yngwie and Steve Vai.

[RealityChickRCRU]

Fuck all Yngwie haters. Yngwie is the king of everything

[Auricknoble]

I'll never forgot how great Yngwie is and what an inspiring guitarist. Graham Bonnet was also very good and underappreciated as a vocalist. I always thought it was because he didn't like looking like looking like a freak or a cliche of the aging long haired hippy type that some people just didn't like him because he waasn't on drugs and so by their definition he was somehow not cool. I don't think he cares about 24 idiots.

[mrbuster1964]

Is that Jimmy Waldo former New England'r on the keyboard?

[kp365]

@mrbuster1964 Good eye. ;)

[kirkwanglers32]

Fantastic Guitarist.

[CarpaDiem]

Thats Chris Impellitteri, not Malmsteen

[CarpaDiem]

or is it?

[TheMrJamu]

@CarpaDiem - Alcatrazz = Bonnet, Malmsteen & co.

[stevemaster247]

yngwie with a flying V...nothing else to say

[beroth77]

Bowie attempting on Metal...lol

[CuriosityRoads]

@beroth77 Graham is so much better than Dio, though.

[kirkwanglers32]

Yngwie Malmsteen.

The Dogs Bolo.

[dvschsa]

is this alcatraz?

[RICK3040]

excelente

[psykosel]

jim carey? he looks more like bill pullman mixed with clint eastwood

[psykosel]

jim carey? he looks more like bill pullman

[coltsuperocean10]

....I almost forgot what an ego fucktard malmsteen is!! Great, great guitar player but ego bigger than the fucking sun!! Total cunt!

[007MrMagoo]

@coltsuperocean10 Shit yeh, I made the mistake of buying on of his instructional (hot lix) vids once. What a fucken tool he is. I don't know how he got his big ego in there to do the thing in the first place? and it ain't because he's talented. Take MAB for example: one hell of a nice guy and can smoke malmsteen half drunk I'll wager.

[Zukatsr125]

@coltsuperocean10 haha, im from Sweden,, but I think you have a point!

[jeans3]

@coltsuperocean10  nothing wrong with a big ego

[arkangel7j]

@coltsuperocean10 unchecked egos have hurt & held back WAY more bands then theyve helped , if ur truly talented , do ur thing with a lil humility and ur abilities will shine thru loud & clear

[vmi3301]

@arkangel7j L.A. Guns is a prime example!! Axl Rose + Traci Guns = Two egos too big for one stage.

[arkangel7j]

@vmi3301 yup

[Volmy122]

@coltsuperocean10 true !

[1965CAPTKIRK]

@coltsuperocean10 He might have an ego but at least hes not afraid to share his licks with other guitar players, not like a lot of other players I can mention who are scared people will steal their secrets, ever see a vanhalen or richie blackmoore instructional video with the players themselves teaching?

[metalmanky306]

@coltsuperocean10 doesn't seem much worse than any other 80's heavy metal guitarist of any merit XD... or me for that matter... jk

[Gday2u]

@coltsuperocean10 Look who he role modelled himself on and also ripped off, Ritchie Blackmore!!! Wait for Malmsteen to become a minstrel!!!

[Volmy122]

@coltsuperocean10 true story man :/

[deanironmaidenrule]

@coltsuperocean10 to be fair, thts what the whole guitar hero image is built on, and as much as i think blackmore is literally a guitar god, i think malmsteen's earned his ego, he's awesome! :D but yea, blackmore is much better!

[JohnnyGuitarded]

@coltsuperocean10

I almost forgot how many assholes out there call Malmsteen a cunt for daring to know what he is!

[199474hjanundm]

@coltsuperocean10 what do you mean`?

[hansele666]

lol @ 1:28 .... that is so Jim Carrey

[andy33333]

What video is this from? Is it on DVD?

[andy33333]

What video is this from?

[kirkwanglers32]

Yngwie a Fantastic,Awsome

[TMUSICIAN]

@kirkwanglers32 FATastic, nowadays.. lol

[swampthing94]

is this vid from the alcatrazz days?

[bibana06]

OMG Yngwie is not playing on a strat!!

[mkultra138]

Yngwie is unleashing the fckin' fury here!

[RRtradestar]

ok I play guitar and I've played this song many times. I know it pretty well but watching the videos. this is the first vi where i've seen yngwie play on a V(or anything other than a strat)

I have to ask if anyone knows. what brand is that guitar? because I can't recognize the headstock, kinda looks like an ibanez but that's not possible and i doubt its a dean... im so confused. if anyone can reply to this then thank you so so much.

[DieselChief]

@RRtradestar

The guitar is an Aria Pro II. Yngwie was their poster boy in the early 80's.

[m1i9k7e6]

got anymore of that gum ace? lmao

[kirkwanglers32]

Amazing guitarist, yngwie

[jroach96]

He sings flat most of the time...Blah!!!

[antic07]

Malmsteen shouldn't have left Alcatrazz. Bonnet and Malmsteen were made for each other. They were like Blackmore and Gillan. Too sad they recorded only 1 album. This is Malmsteens best album. Bonnet made a lot unknown great albums!

Most underrated rock singer ever!

[Jefgg]

The reason Graham Bonnet 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. Bonnet must have been green with envy when he realized how talented the teenage Swedish guitar virtuoso was.

[nrlova]

in the first like minute he looks strangely like Mel Gibson :S, anyone agree?

[NightmareSnake]

Great singer.

[phillygirl5968]

ygwayay is awesome and this is so rare..

[jamesmaro]

o dam this fuken rare dude i wish i wouldnt seen this shit last year haha

[diegoevil]

Amazing!!!

[meatfuckers]

First time i see Malmsteen playing with an Aria Pro II Flying V! amazing!!!!

[N0tsaved]

Jeez, Bonnet was NOT going to let Yngwie steal the show tonight!

[Ravensweet64]

I love how Graham takes a huge piss on this ,Johnny Rotten would be proud lol

[NoQuattro]

Malmsteen on a V...not something you see every day.

[macgaby2007]

@NoQuattro you are 100% right, to be honest I think that Yngwie had on his hand a V only one time in his life and was in this video :)

[phillygirl5968]

whatever happened to yingway?

[redhead5150]

Bonnet can belt out the vocals though!!!

[TheMichaelseymour]

I love the fact bonnet messed with YOUR stereotype of what a hard rock singer SHOULD look like. Short hair , No denim or leather , and his "hi ho hi ho - off to work we go " at 1:29 ...its brilliant and a breath of fresh air .

[Bloodline616]

1:29 The gayest move on stage ever caught on stage.

[momojojo75]

@Bloodline616 I was gonna take issue with ur comment and ask if u have seen Garry Cherone with Van Halen is singing "Jump" but man this takes the cake!!!!

[raindance74]

@Bloodline616 Ha! Thats too funny!

[weslake898]

@Bloodline616 LMARO

[arkangel7j]

@Bloodline616 yup, that was kinda pansified & goofy lookin

[vmi3301]

@Bloodline616 2:49 is a close second!!!

[vintyson]

@Bloodline616  hahaha your right!

[webnut808]

@Bloodline616 I have agree with you on that, or that's Jim Carrey!!!

[alnjgove8uifjbkelbfg]

@Bloodline616 have you ever seen Morrissey onstage?

[HakaProductions1]

Yngwie's guitar should be louder...

[kirkwanglers32]

Amazing Guitarist.

Wangler

[MrVandegarde]

Jim Carey?....nah, it's Mel Gibson in his younger years.

You can tell by his voice, it's the same as his latest leaked telephone tapes with his ex-wife.

[momojojo75]

@MrVandegarde WTF?!!!HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!­!!!

[Greysockmadman]

Christ! how old is this!?!?!

[nahkmong]

not a fan of song but to see malmsteen play flying v is great..wonder if it's scalloped

[thegenie144]

Slash vs Yngwie Malmsteen who wins place on my channel for whos better?

[raggballe]

sämsta jag sett allvarligt på länge,å då har setat å lyssnat på massor av music hela kvällen..wwwaazzzuppppp

[kc1921]

EXCELLENT !

[salozmen29]

Wow Bonnet looks gay

[qwertysyuraw]

Graham nothing has changed after 1979 - crazy guy in pink (or orange? in these lights I can't see true colour) trouses with the awesome voice

In live at Donington, with Rainbow he was wear all in pink so that's nothing special

[englishsandy]

malmsteen is just the best guitar player he is truly amazing.He makes it talk and has a stage presence that is electric.He makes the others rock guitarist's look like amatuers.He is wonderful.

[ronnieanand]

What a beautiful start to the solo... then ruined it with his usual flurry of notes...

[Peelick]

@ronnieanand Bullshit!!!!!!!!!!

[TheWeirdy93]

i think that's alcatrazz

[HEPFG]

Luv this song

[alanmorri]

Funny how the band playing the most heard version of a song can be thought of as THE origin. Russ Ballard who was in Argent actually wrote this song...it's on his solo LP Winning. Rainbow and Headeast among many others COVERED this song.It's like trying to tell people Eric Clapton did not write I shot The Sheriff (Bob Marley ) or Cocaine ( J J Cale ) or David Gilmour not being the writer of No Way Out of Here ( Ken Baker from Unicorn ) Cover songs can be amazing but get your facts straight!

[fugazi060606]

He looks like an Oasis reject.

[diagreen]

NOBODY SOUNDS LIKE GB

[ronnieanand]

Graham Bonnet looks like he's born to Jim Carrey and Bryan Adams..

[ritter89]

@ronnieanand lol, you nailed it with Bryan Adams. He looks like Carrey a bit with the pompadour hair but he's all Bryan Adams in the face. I never noticed that before

[ronnieanand]

@ritter89 .. Not to forget the T Shirt... Summer '69 was shot when Bryan Adams borrowed this T Shirt...

[badmattam]

boy! . . .he made hard work of that! . . .loved rainbow though.takes me back to care free times ;-))

[lorihen01]

ALCATRAZZ!!!!

[striketalos]

0:36 how you doing!!

[striketalos]

bonnet die after show!! spitting blood jajaaj :P

[35rocker]

Thats an Aria Pro Yngwie is using.

[Leonardoo69]

What the brand of this V????????

[AgressivePerfector]

yngwie sucks. those same old fucking shred licks year after year. why does he have to put that fuckin neo classical stuff to everything he plays?

[Zukatsr125]

@DANizDAN Its bonnet, but I think he has taking something :P

[einaroneeye]

Looks like an Alcatrazz performance from way back. Yngwie with a Flying V (not a Gibby from the looks of it)? Wow, pretty cool!

[maxx3442]

Graham sings from his toes up. Strong ass powerful voice!

[theundertakerjr6]

How rare it it to see him without a strat

[oOoKhaledoOo]

I respect Yngwie Malmsteen but even tho i dont know much about him at all , BUT WooW its first time to see him not ''FAT'' , he looks cool here .. and also in the solo he got a killer tone , 5 stars for the vid!

[Lar24man]

I think malmsteens got it on blackmore

[whitbyjet65]

@Lar24man You must be joking. Malmsteen is just a shredder. No soul or texture to his playing at all. Blackmore wins hands down.

[thebirishman]

Stellar!

[PeeceSells]

his vocals are amazing hard to believe he isnt a very famous vocalist....

[thorba69]

Tienes razón jlpain, no recordaba que el que sucedio a Malmsteen en Alcatrazz fue un novel steve vai además de su proyecto con chris impelleteri honor a quien honor merece, gracias por traer esas memorias al presente.

[webnut808]

Is that...Jim Carey...doing a Graham Bonnet impersonation???

[fugazi060606]

@webnut808 Haha that made me laugh.. that and his unibrow.

[missingorb]

@webnut808 i had to look twice to make sure it wan't jim carrey...lol...

[plantguy666]

@webnut808 no, I think it's Scott Weiland after a few cheeseburgers.

[vidstar7]

@webnut808

Dude!! That's funny as hell. I can't stop laughing.

The tears are going to ruin my laptop

first of all the guy sounds like he is gearing up to take a shit- and he looks like he could use a Zanax

[drage1862]

@webnut808 Good observation, He does kinda look like Ace Ventura Pet Detective. Great voice though,

[wowimonnoobtube]

@webnut808 nah thats rick astley

[wheezer283]

@wowimonnoobtube LMAO!!! Yngwie Malmsteen GOT rick rolled!!!!!

[MicrotekMybisi]

@webnut808 He's pretty damn good... LOL

[thorba69]

No cualquiera puede decir que a tocado con 2 de los más grandes guitarristas del planeta: MR. BLACKMORE y MR. MICHAEL SCHENKER aunque al final ambos le dieron una patada en el trasero a Bonnet por boquiflojo y borracho.

[jlpain]

@thorba69 y con Mr Vai y Mr Malmsteen y con un tal Impelliteri

[LleviathanzZ]

Yngwie is my Guitar God, But I love the Chris Impellitteri's version of "since you've been gone" more.

Anyway, , Yngwie still rules after all :D

Thanks for posting this rare video.

[kirkwanglers32]

Yngwie awsome,Guitar player. Bonnet Awsome singer.

[royrhodes]

That great voice can only take so much punishment!!...all those gigs !!! Its fine for Blackmore / Malmsteen etc with only the occasional blister on a "pinkie" to contend with!!

Graham's voice is finding those high notes harder to hit even on this early video!!.

[Jon26462]

royrhodes

Probably pissed

[pcstudios1]

rainbow for ever
