And only you Chris could refer to Jimi Hendrix as a guitar n00b lmao - I sincerely hope youre joking xDSGxHe was comparing Malmsteen to Hendrix. Hendrix is not the BEST guitarist in the world, imo he's quite overrated, that's not the point though.Malmsteen is great, and saying he lacks the "raw emotion" is very juvenile, how can you tell how much emotion someone puts into their work? How do you think he got so good? He had no feeling toward guitar? Oh yeah, that totally makes sense, maybe you're right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moreblack Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Malmsteen is great, and saying he lacks the "raw emotion" is very juvenile, how can you tell how much emotion someone puts into their work? How do you think he got so good? He had no feeling toward guitar? Oh yeah, that totally makes sense, maybe you're right.Put it this way, once you've heard one Yngwie album you've heard them all, and I've heard them all one by one. It all starts sounding the same, and it tends to detach the listener from any kind of artistic merit or statement that the music might have, because we've heard it all before, be it on Rising Force, Attack, War To End All Wars, Odyssey, Trilogy, Fire And Ice, etc... same shit different pile.

But still, it must take some emotion to get as good as he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, that totally makes sense, maybe you're right.I agree.I mean, just because he is a wizard on the guitar doesn't mean he lacks emotion. I mean, does emotion mean you must make mistakes and not be able to play fast? How can anyone say shredding has no emotion. So if someone is technically far superior it means he is a cold robot? It's about playing guitar and expressing yourself and if that's what Malmsteen feels, than it's his interpretation of the word "emotion", because he feels what he plays.

Makes hendrix look like a guitar n00bIs it him who sing on the albums to? if so he got a pretty good sining voice toyou cant really say that because they both have different styles of playing.if you want to see a good technical guitarist check out some paul gilbert or him in his band years in racer x.
