Well musically Joe Satriani is fantastic but sorry guys he can't pick like Yngwie. To play fast Joe Satriani uses legato and he uses it too much. And Yngwie's picking is like knitting which is really amazing. Yngwie mixes picking with legato and other techniques. So technically Yngwie is the best and nobody could play like Yngwie in the 80s and 90s.

Does Satriani do too many legatos? By that criterion, Allan Holdsworth is worse than Malmsteen? If it's a question of muscle, then the best is James Hetfield. In any case, you forget about others as fast as Malmsteen, such as Paul Gilbert or Michael Angelo Batio.

@@DeborahHammond When Allan Holdsworth was a kid, he wanted to play jazz on saxophone but his father bought him an electric guitar because saxophone is an expensive instrument. So what Allan did he listened to saxophone jazz players and played that music on guitar. And to imitate saxophone soloing on guitar he used the legato technique. So in the early 80s, it was new and nobody could play like Holdsworth. And Joe Satriani uses legato technique to play fast and he can't pick like Yngwie. Even Steve Vai admires Yngwie's picking. Steve Vai says that even when he watches Yngwie play very closely, he can't figure out how Yngwie does it.

Yngwie I can listen to occasionally. For all his mouth, Yngwie is a character. Joe strikes me as a fairly enlightened person. To each his own but be cool about it.

Being "world's fastest guitarist" is the equivalent of being the novelist that types the fastest of them all. It's what's created that counts. The space between the notes is every bit as important as the notes themselves. At a certain point, sheer speed takes away the musicality. Speed can be exciting and it can cause other emotions, but it's only an aspect guitar playing. 100% rather listen to Eddie or Nuno than Yngwie even if Yngwie arguably has better technique than all the rest.

Yeah these "guitar virtuoso" dudes never amount to much as far as touching people with their music.

Art is about touching one's soul, and there's so many ways to do it. I get annoyed with anyone who tries to rank music as if it's a competition. It's not, leave that for sports.

You know what, fuck these shredders, Iommi had the best picking. He may not pick a thousand notes per second but when he picks the whole damn world rumbles, cracks and caves in. Or take Sykes for example, when he picks you feel it in your balls. Those are the kinds of picking sounds that stay with you throughout your life above all else, however jaw dropping they may otherwise be.

Listen to Kirk's solos and you'll realise Yngwie was not wrong. There are some from the early catalogue that are great, well constructed solos (Blackened stands out). However, those moments of melodic genius are rare and you have to question whether he has a very musical ear at all. He really hasn't evolved his style either, and has instead just doubled down on the boring, non-melodic and stale pentatonic stuff. There are other notes on the fretboard Kirk! Maybe ignoring colour and tension notes is his way of not screwing up melodically.

I like Kirk. He's got a real quirky style and memorable melodies that make you want to whistle along, but sometimes falls a little flat live, especially in the St Anger period. But that's just how he plays. He doesn't do the solos the same every time. He has a bit of an improvisational approach, which is why his solos sound the way they do. Yngwie is very precise and his solos are beautiful, but I rarely listen to him. It just goes to show that music is not some gymnastic sport. It's for enjoyment. How does it make you feel?

Playing fast and slow are both equally important in guitar music both have their own dynamics to create a great music composition. Malmsteen reminds me of Alan Holdsworth's type of guitar music, it's just continual fast picking with no verses or choruses, or even a main melody line, it sounds like they're musically lost or something, that's my opinion anyway

I purchased Malmsteen's album, Rising Force, in the 80s; I wasn't blown away by the songwriting or that Neo Classical thing he was doing. I chuck it up to the fact that Van Halen was my #1 band at the time, so I was already listening to out of this world guitar playing, and I had been listening to Zep and Hendrix even before VH--plus I lived in a neighborhood where guys were blasting Funk along with Judas Priest and Zeppelin. I also shared a house with a fantastic Classical pianist, but he was also experimental--something I didn't hear Malmsteem doing to my 18 year old ears. Also, I saw Metallica around that time opening for Ozzy, Cliff Burton on bass. It was luke warm for me at the time; though, I was already playing Metallica and Motorhead for a year, it really didn't hit me as to what they were doing until much later. I love Metallica now as a band, I think they are fantastic and still writing great music; though, I think Megadeath is much better--better overall musicians and songwriting. I still can't stand Malmsteen's music, in fact I bailed on it first album. But I study his videos on KZitem, not for style or flash, but because I've come to appreciate his exceptional fretboard awareness.

I don't buy the idea that Kirk's sole reason for not wanting to dig into Yngwie's style was related to not wanting to sound like Yngwie. There were many players who were influenced by Yngwie, such as Paul Gilbert, who have gone on to develop something different in their own right. I also don't see Yngwie's comments about Kirk, as having to be driven by bank account jealousy, because there are many players (such as Brian May) who have a lot more money than Yngwie, for which Yngwie has high regard. I have read through many of the comments that imply that Yngwie is boring to listen to. Personally, I will not disagree as I have grown bored with his playing. He has not broadened his musical palette in 40 years. While he has arguably more technical prowess than he did when he was 18, I believe that he has lost feel, which I find to be a shame. Frankly, I would liked to have seen Yngwie expand in a way that a player such as Greg Howe did, but I believe that when players become very successful, they often develop a level of complacency. In context, there are many great players out there, who don't have a fraction of the money that Yngwie has amassed. Sadly, Allan Holdsworth's family had a gofundme to cover funeral expenses. Thus, any arguments equating net worth to influence or skill don't hold any weight in my book and while music is subjective, I largely agree with his assessment of Kirk. I like Metallica, but with few exceptions I am not a fan of Kirk's solos. I think that somebody like Marty Friedman would add so much more.

Shawn Lane wipes the floor with both of them when it comes to technical ability 😁 When it comes to album sales and net worth, Kirk is king 🤑

Yes sure, it's just interesting that Kirk had Yngwie's demo tape in 81 and went to Joe Satriani to ask to teach him to play like Yngwie and Joe had no idea what techniques Yngwie used, so Kirk had to give up and play like he could.

It's hard enough playing in tune & on time, lead guitar is supposed to accentuate the song, not show off, I'm a fan of music, love it, dedication & determination will always shine through, music is what feelings sound like 😊

We should thank them all for bringing new things and inspiration to a new breed of guitar players around the world. Malmsteen is a virtuoso...Satriani is a genious and Kirk is a millionaire......

Yngwie Malmsteen is just on another level with guitar. He is a once in a century artist.

And after 15 minutes you've heard everything he plays. Nobody just plays malmsteen when driving. Hell after 2 songs you're burned out with the same noise over and over.

If you walk into any guitar store, you can recognize a Metallica song within the first 6 notes. You might hear someone play some Yngwie, but it’s not going to stick in your mind like a Metallica riff.
