Episode cover: Yngwie Malmsteen Biography. English language

00:00:00 - In Placic Rocks All Time, Rock Biographies

00:00:15 - Ingve Malmsteen was born in Sweden on June 30, 1963, being the youngest son of a family made up of his mother, more, his sister Anne-Louise, and his brother Bjorn.

00:00:29 - Ingve initially had no interest or attraction to music, but this situation changed when, on September 18, 1970, he watched a television special about the death of guitarist Jimmy

00:00:41 - Hendrix. At seven years old, Ingve watched in awe as Hendrix gifted and attacked the audience with highly aggressive music, and set his guitar on fire.

00:00:53 - Applying his intense curiosity and tenacity to his first guitar, an old mozright, and then a cheap second-hand Stratocaster, soon paid off.

00:01:02 - Ingwe immersed himself in the music of bands like Deep Purple, and Cream, spent long hours of his teens practicing and struggling to learn his songs.

00:01:13 - Thus, he memorized the guitar parts of the Deep Purple album made in Japan, one of best live albums of all time.

00:01:29 - His admiration for Richie Blackmore, and his neoclassical and chromatic style led him to listen to classical music, Bach, Vivaldi, Beethoven and Mozart.

00:01:39 - As Ingve absorbs the classical structures of the masters, it enhances him as a musician, enriching his ears, and his prodigious style begins to take shape.

00:02:15 - Too fake, too young to take, too strong to heal

00:02:20 - As they follow in the path of believing before them

00:02:29 - Too young to die, but there won't be too long to live

00:02:38 - That is Princess, it's just her hair

00:02:52 - And how does her nose run the end?

00:02:55 - Time smokes in the car, drinks her last beer

00:02:59 - Soon she'll be ready for one more day

00:03:03 - And for the classroom and the hell

00:03:07 - But the crack upon the wall holds her mind based on freedom

00:03:16 - There's time to die, but she just needs more time to live

00:03:37 - I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry

00:04:37 - Years from now, look how they changed

00:04:56 - Lesson mature and respected, they used to laugh

00:05:00 - They were such fools, unaware of the real life world

00:05:06 - Honey, your home makes me your drink

00:05:10 - Cos it's still a lot of gang

00:05:13 - And the buzz don't be crazy

00:05:19 - Watch in the dark

00:05:22 - I'm the one for the happy hour

00:05:36 - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah songs all time.

00:06:19 - At the age of 10, he began to focus all his energies on music, leaving aside his studies, in which he excelled, especially in English.

00:06:29 - His mother and his sister, a talented flutist, recognized his unique musical gifts, and gave him support and encouragement. In that way, his mastery of his instrument progressed rapidly.

00:06:41 - He worked for a time as a luthier in a guitar repair shop, where he first came across a scalloped neck when a 17th century lute entered the shop. Intrigued, Ingve worked on the neck of an old guitar, similar to how he had seen it on the lute, and was so impressed with the musical results that he decided to test it on his own guitars. This type of neck is a little more difficult to play than a normal neck, because the frets force a firmer and more precise touch, but his control over the strings improved a lot, so he acquired it forever in his guitars.

00:07:14 - Around the age of 18, Ingve and several friends recorded a demo of the three-song game for

00:07:19 - Swedish CBS, but the cuts were never released. Frustrated and angry, Ingve began sending demos to music record companies and overseas contacts. One tape was found by contributing guitar player and shrapnel music. As a result, Ingve was invited to record with a

00:07:37 - Steeler band, with whom he recorded only one album, and the rest, as they say, is history.

00:08:32 - I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't know what I'm talking about, I don't

00:12:26 - From Steeler, Ingve moved to Alcatraz, with former Rainbow Grahan Bonnet, but it became clear that in order to fully develop his talents, Ingve chose the option of starting a solo career.

00:13:00 - Ingwe's first solo album, Rising Force now considered the Bible of neoclassical rock, peaked of number 60 on the Billboard charts, an impressive feat for a mostly non-commercial guitar instrumental album.

00:13:13 - The album also garnered a Ingwe Grammy nomination for Best Instrumental Rock Performance.

00:13:19 - He was voted best new talent in several reader polls, best rock guitarist of the year, and

00:13:24 - Rising Force became album of the year.

00:13:27 - Rising Force broke ground on the concert circuit, establishing Ingve as one of the Gita's brightest new rock stars, and adding a new genre to the musical lexicon, neoclassical rock.

00:13:43 - With his place infirmly established, neo-classical guitar history, Ingve recorded extraordinary compositions, recording classic albums, such as Marching Out, Trilogy, Odyssey, Livin'

00:13:55 - Leningrad, Trial by Fire, Fire and Ice The Seventh Sign, Magnum Opus, among many others.

00:14:13 - In 1997, Ingve proved that he was a great musician by transcending the boundaries of rock.

00:14:21 - After months of intense work, Ingve produced his first fully classical work, Concerto Suite for Electric Guitar and Orchestra in E-flap Minor, Opus No. 1.

00:14:32 - This groundbreaking album was recorded in Prague, with the prestigious Czech Philharmonic

00:14:37 - Orchestra and the famous symphony conductor Joel Levi.

00:14:41 - Following in the footsteps of classical music in 2001 he performed a concert with the new

00:14:46 - Japan Philharmonic Orchestra in Tokyo, which was released in 2002 on CD and DVD.

00:14:53 - In 2003, Ingve joined the famous G3 tour, on a wheel many guitar fans saw as the ultimate dream combination, Satriani, by Malmsteen.

00:15:05 - The tour's CD and DVD became instant and hot classics throughout the year.

and until today, he released several albums showing his skills as a guitarist.

00:15:16 - Ingwe's recognition and popularity continues at this time, based in Miami, USA.

00:15:22 - Recall that time magazine, Ingwe was listed as one of the 10 best electric guitarists.

00:15:27 - In classic rocks all time, rock biographies.

00:15:31 - I never practiced, ever.

00:15:34 - You know, I know it sounds funny, but I never did because practicing entails repetition,

00:15:39 - I never did that. But I did play a lot. I played, I mean, I'm talking hours and hours and hours. I would play on the train, I would play on the bus, I would play in the studio,

00:15:53 - I would play in the house, fall asleep with the guitar, wake up with the guitar for years, many years. But it wasn't practicing, it was just playing and improvising and come up with new stuff. And I did that for many years. And it really doesn't go a day without me playing. I do play all the time, you know. But I constantly am on composition and recording. No, I never did anything like that. I never did any exercises or anything like that, you know, as far as the speed, that's a really funny thing that will happen.

00:16:35 - For a long time, I was still staying with my mom, but I would go into the city every day to record in a studio that my uncle had built, and the cassette recorder in the studio would run a little bit slower than the one at home.

00:16:54 - I'm talking just a little bit slower.

00:16:57 - So I would record every day, and I had this philosophy that whatever I do today has to be better than I did yesterday.

00:17:06 - I had every day, it's not like, oh, maybe tomorrow, no, no, today I've got to be better than

00:17:11 - I was yesterday, and by better, that means faster and cleaner and more difficult stuff.

00:17:18 - You know, I had this crazy idea that, you know, there was no limit to all that.

00:17:24 - So what happened was that I would listen to, before I went back to sitting on the tube,

00:17:29 - I would listen to what I did the day before and I would go, hmm, that's pretty fast.

00:17:34 - That's pretty good.

00:17:35 - Well, you gotta top that.

00:17:37 - So every day, little small increments, like it was faster and faster and faster, you know.

00:17:41 - And I thought maybe we could talk about our tune because it was cold outside, you know, because it was carrying on a train or whatever.

00:17:46 - So crazy.

00:17:47 - Funnily enough, that's one of the reasons, you know, and also that I would always have this philosophy that you know if you can't play it perfectly clean and with accuracy don't play it so so it was a combination of playing it very you know articulate and slightly faster slightly faster slightly faster it was pretty nuts the only thing I would criticize is his lack of adaptation to a band project such as Alcatraz where he developed as a guitarist part of a group, with great songs like Jet to Jet, Hiroshima Mourna Mour or Suffer Me.

00:18:22 - He never put his ego aside to work with other rock stars.

his footprint in rock will last over time.

00:18:56 - It was new but it can't be told But they called it a little war

00:19:24 - And she's seven, it's five, oh, six, and three

00:19:28 - They got this D&D

00:19:32 - I'll fly up high, one, two, three, four, five

00:19:40 - Promise is dead, and it's cool, it's fine

00:19:45 - Here I'm cheaper on a whole As we beg to be forgiven

00:20:00 - To your spirit I face a curse of sin By a fallen shaper son

00:20:10 - Burn in the shadows of the clouds

00:20:20 - As the wind blows through time and land

00:20:28 - Leaving the desert from the past behind

00:20:40 - Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

00:21:10 - They are setting forth in the war

00:21:39 - And we thank Christ for the bomb

00:21:43 - And the priests and witches are the queen

00:21:47 - They should die to keep them free

00:21:51 - But why a woman shaves her son?

00:21:59 - Burning the shadows of the crowd

00:22:05 - As the wind pours through the jungle, I am

00:22:14 - The end of time and for the first time

00:22:22 - You don't see me
