  • Both great guitar players. One is a great songwriter to boot with a vast a canon of work crossing rock and jazz fusion. YM is a great player but RK wins for me in terms of all round ability.

  • Richie has much stronger fingers. he's actually got some of the strongest out here. a lot of his acoustic stuff is legato

  • Yngwie 'picks better'. When that is all that can be said then this face-off was about as anti-climactic as the first recorded battle between a Great White and an Orca. Yngwie with his great picking spells is the Great White. Who by the way lasted a total of about 5 seconds before being dispatched and eaten. How about this one - Better singer - Lemmy Kilmister or Freddie Mercury? I'm guessing Ol' Fred's gonna do pretty well on this one. But that's just me. lol. Fuckin' Kotzen is BRILLIANT

  • People why is this even a discussion. Sure technically the big Y is impressive. Big fuckin' deal. The only decent songs he ever wrote were because he had Joe Lynn Turner holding his hand. Kotzen is the Hendrix of this generation. The man could never touch a guitar again and still be great by virtue of his incredible vocal and songwriting skills. The only one of the late '80's shredders (Paul Gilbert at times) who developed into a COMPLETE musician and not just a lead guitarist.

  • @pochifer1 Don't forget Richie can sing like a mother f*cker as well and is a much better songwriter. Yngwie picks better...

  • Good example, both excellents players, think ,Richie Kotzen can do, more interesting things than Yngwie , Richie more versatile , Richie wins in this, but both amazing.

  • @nextbestguitarist No, the first bit is definitely slapping.

  • @williamindragunawan Sounds like a sweep technique with hammer ons.

  • 1:06 how'd he do that? slapping?

  • @scheidtl u know the name of these songs?
