Description

Guitar God Yngwie J. Malmsteen adds the title of "Guitar Maestro" to his resume in the magnificent "Concerto Suite for Electric Guitar and Orchestra". Filmed in 2001 with The New Japan Philharmonic Orchestra, Malmsteen melds his guitar prowess with some of the finest classical music composed in this concerto written by Yngwie.

This DVD has been a sought-after program by Yngwie's American faithful for years, and is available for the first time in North America.

If musical notes were gold nuggets, then King Midas would look like a pauper next to Joe Satriani, Steve Vai, and Yngwie Malmsteen. Performing both individually and together in this 112-minute concert, the three hard rock guitarists prove their virtuosity beyond a doubt; despite the obvious antecedents, including Jimi Hendrix (they play both "Little Wing" and "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)" during the "G3 Jam" session that comes at the end) and Eddie Van Halen, all three play with the kind of swiftness, precision, and overall technical proficiency that very few others can match. Yet the non-stop, high-volume speed riffing (Malmsteen is the most egregious when it comes to playing notes for notes' sake, but all three are culpable) eventually proves to be a whole lot of sound and fury, signifying almost nothing. There's little to speak of in terms of songs or melodies (and no vocals, other than during the jam section), and, notwithstanding Malmsteen's pseudo-classical bent, not much to distinguish the three, either. The chops are awesome, dude--but in the end, even die-hards could be forgiven for thinking, "Thanks, fellas, that was really, really impressive. But do you think you could play some music now?" --Sam Graham

Featurettes from the decade-old Hard and Heavy program are collected on Rockthology, volume 2 of which stars metal giants Ozzy Osbourne, Lita Ford, Scorpions, Yngwie Malmsteen, Judas Priest, Ronnie James Dio, German goddess Doro, and progressive-metallers Queensryche. The 5- to 15-minute episodes showcase band member interviews, snippets from video clips, and occasional in-studio or at-home footage. Highlights are Ozzy discussing his partnership with late guitarist Randy Rhoads, Priest's Rob Halford admitting his anger over the infamous trial accusing their music of causing a teenager's death, and Queensryche's members hoping their music will make listeners aware of political and environmental concerns. Otherwise, this ragtag, 80-minute collection isn't thorough enough to satisfy longtime fans and is too "inside" to attract new ones. Cutting between interviews and video clips kills the chance to enjoy either, and the shortest segments (on Malmsteen and Doro) are so superficial they'll disappoint everyone. --Kevin Filipski

Baffled by these reviews.......2006-11-14

By the standards of most music DVDs made 2000 and before, this one's audio wasn't that bad at all. & picking on his weight? Odd that it would be such an issue for some, esp. of the male persuasion. If you like Yngwie for his guitar playing and you don't expect the flawless 5.1 surround mixes of the last two years, this DVD is what an Yngwie fan is looking for.

Tasteless trash.......2006-09-07

Yngwie Malnsteen can play blistering arpeggios, but this DVD could at some time in the future, be held up as a shining example of 20th Century rock'n'roll extravagance, egotism and tastlesness.
First, there's the cheap and very nasty audio mix - the bass and keybords are almost non-existent, and Malmsteen's ego ensured that the very irritating braying from the audience is a constant feature of the mix. And then there's Yngwie himself; sweating and posturing in a very tight leather outfit, replete with open shirt and gold crucifix.
The horror. The horror....

How long before amazing gets boring.......2005-08-18

malmsteen is physically an amazing player, and to watch him... he makes my jaw drop to the floor, but there's only some many times, you can sit and watch him play. even in the length of this dvd i was wondering...... had he played this song already. alot of people are complaining about the sound quality, it aint amazing, but i could live with it. what i love about malmsteen is when he goes into a slow classical piece, like on the G3 dvd, thats the dvd that inspired to buy this one, if i'd seen this before i bought it, i probably wouldnt have bought it.

a little tid bit for a reviewer called MARTIN!!!!!.......2005-08-14

Hey dude....you have it ALL WRONG!!! The scalloped frets DO make it easier to finger the frets. I know because I have a one...idiot!!
Anyway, I have an instructional video of the guitar wizard himself saying that it DOES make it easier to finger the strings!!!
Sounds like YOU"RE the one who doesn't know what he's talking about...JUST SHUT UP ALREADY....DUMB A$$!!! LOL

Yngfair.......2005-04-30

There's no question that Yngwie is a phenominal guitarist but if you're going to release a DVD then there are 3 things he might want to reconsider. 1) Hire a personal chef. There's no excuse for a guy of his wealth to come out looking like Porky the Pig on guitar. I love Yngwie but it was hard to watch this video beacause of his weight. Rock & Roll has a definite image factor to it. If I was just listening to his CDs then fine, go ahead and suck down the ice cream and pizza but if you're a shredder selling me a video, dressed in leather, LOSE SOME WEIGHT!!
2) Hire a decent sound man. Maybe you might want to talk to Steve Harris in Iron Maiden. Everything that guy does is first class.
3) Consider working with a lyricist. You're a great guitarist, great song writer (musically) but your words could use a LOT of work. After all that - did I enjoy this DVD? Yes, I did but he could do a LOT better, I just KNOW he could. PLEASE talk to Steve Harris....
