Ha! Caught your attention didn't I?!? :)
So Yngwie Malmsteen is a great (and that's an understatement) guitar player. Too bad he knows it. :) Hailing from Sweden, Yngwie probably entered this world with a guitar in his hand. To get as good as he is he would have had to start playing from birth. Unless he's a prodigy...there's always that option!
Yngwie has been, in the past, labeled the world's fastest guitar picker. He really IS amazing. Looking at him playing guitar you almost think there's no way he's actually playing because his fingers become with the neck and the frets and he looks like he's gliding his hand up and down the notes. But he is, in fact, moving his fingers and hitting every note perfectly. Yngwie has never been the radio hit type but Lanny tells me he did have one radio hit back in the 90's. But I loved the title of this piece so I choose it! Plus this piece is only about 2 and a half minutes whereas I'm sure the radio hit is longer. And really for most of us 2.5 minutes is just about enough!
