Yngwie has always had great playing. Some of his solos have more fire in them then others though. Yngwie has more feeling and melody in his playing then any other shredder that I've ever heard. There is no one who does neoclassical better then Yngwie!
@streakerdude I agree. If you like shredders with emotion, I would also HIGHLY recommend Michael Angelo Batio (aka MAB). If you have time, look up "Rain Forest" or his most famous "Speed Kills, No Boundaries" and enjoy one of the best shredders ever, right up there with Malmsteen and Steve Vai!
I love this song. Despite the undeniable guitar performance in all Malmsteen´s songs, I have always appreciated the keyboards role in his songs too. Fantastic song!!
@qwerty123123ify Soto was the first, and without question, the best. Pretty rare to find a guy with such range and grit, and Yngwie just discarded him. You sometimes have to wonder what goes through his head.
This video unfortunately, wastes a LOT of space, tracking through the back of the audience during Yngwie's solo, when we should be seeing him and not the back of people's heads in the dark.
This cut was originally written while Yngwie was a member of STEELER. It was called 'Victim of the City' and recorded live at Perkins Palace, L.A.Ca. Producer Varney decided to leave it off the album in favor of Yngwie's 'Rising Force' instrumental. It's featured on the STEELER ANTHOLOGY CD. It was a band collaboration, and not by any one member. It marked a turning point in the band as everyone contributed to its composition. Check out the original for a comparison.
What a cool band. Jeff, Yngwie, Jens, Marcel and Anders really rocked the shit out of most bands by that time. Now they rock the shit out of everything that is new.
Say whatever you want. But in 1985, Yngwie's rising force was THE biggest metal band on the scene. They even opened for AC/DC and played arena's that would make you cream in your pants.
To those of you that, have anything vile to say about Rising Force........I want to ask one Question? could you sing better than them? or play the guitar better than them?................No, i don't think you could.
Yngwie was much better at that time than today. Actually he bagan to suck by the time of LIve at Leningrado... Lost acuraccy, got sloppy, whatever. In 1985 he was incredible.
No way. He had some bad times in the 90s but he's better today than he's ever been. Have you seen the G3 concert vid? Awesome stuff. And I saw him on the last tour, he was unstopable.
@xuxis2008 I agree. By the time he got his precision back he had lost his style. Yngwie was best when he was very young because he was still hungry to succeed.
This was for sure on of Rising Force's strongest line ups you can hear how tight they are, they're producing a lot of energy up there and Jeff Scott Soto is spot on sounds just like the record.
Ahhhh... back when rock was flashy, heavy, catchy, and with a healthy dose of flamboyance. Something modern rock severely lacks. Great song, brings back great memories!
Can't disagree with you about Joe Lynn. I think he has one of the best voices in rock. I love the record he was on with YJM. Both JSS & JLT were outstanding with Yngwie. I'd be happy if YJM would reunite with either for a record & tour.
Omg that final bend at 2:18 <3 Yngwie was a master a this time !
