The Yngwie Malmsteen Interview

"I'll play something of Bach...., ah sorry, that's mine". Genius

Rick’s phone book must be incredible 😅

Dude, Rick Beato is awesome. His interviews of these legends are legendary themselves. Easily the best Yngwie interview I’ve seen.

this video is historical archive for later generations to watch..thank RIck ...

I’ve never seen him nicer and more polite than with you. You bring the best out of your guests - and make me proud as a Swedish music teacher.

Had the pleasure to hang with Yngwie numerous times when I worked for Fender & this is exactly how he is. Always present, sharp as a tack, extremely intelligent, well read & knowledgeable on many subjects outside of music, gracious & polite. Plus he’s freaking hilarious & great company. Gotta love him.

I've interviewed him four times for guitar magazines and he's always been super friendly and open.

I saw Yngwie when he opened for AC/DC at the Forum in Inglewood CA back in the 1980's! It was my first concert ever and he literally blew my mind! What an amazing musician!

We have toured with Yngwie twice, and you brought out the man that we knew. Just a guy obsessed with guitar and writing/playing music. No rockstar BS. Best Yngwie interview ever. 👏

The thing about Yngwie is that nobody can ever say that he isn’t 100% passionate about what he does.

I met Yngwie outside his tour bus in Atlanta after the Dio Magica Tour in 2000 which he was a co headliner. Nicest guy, truly genuine and down to earth. Good memories.

What a talent. I remember seeing him in the late 80’s amazing live. To hear him talk as to his life and his talent amazing.

Everyone talks about Rick's knowledge and talent but he's also a superb interviewer. He lets the subject answer and elaborate and he asks questions that fans want to know. Excellent!

By the time Rick is done he’ll have had more famous musicians in his studio than Abbey Road, it’ll have to be registered as a historic site.

I was grateful to experience Yngwie with ACDC in 1985 (Fly on the wall tour) at the Spectrum in Philly. That bro threw his guitar up in the air, it looked to me like 50ft in the air, and it came down into his hands like he was dancing with a partner, it flowed so easily like water in a river. This man caught his guitar so perfectly in time, not a note was missed. I knew that myself as a young guitar player that this is the next revoution of guitar playing. And I wanted to absorb evrey note that penetrated my brain. I am so elated to to have experienced this masterful interview. Thank you

I'm so lucky i had the oportunity to see him in concert, in Paris, for his new album "magnum opus". I was at the front row and i had such a blast!

These interviews are actually much more significant than people realize. Rick is really creating a chronicle of music history with these. Absolutely great stuff

Turns out a successful interview with Yngwie simply requires expertise in the subject matter, and an interviewer that parks his ego at the door and asks sincere questions. Rick you bring out the best in people. Please keep them coming. Bless you.

Mr. Beato, you have outdone yourself. You and Yngwie should do more videos. The chemistry between you two is off the charts. You have brought the best interview out of the Swedish Maestro. My favorite guitarist of all time. The almost hour seemed like only ten minutes. You ask the right questions. Major kudos to you sir.

Let’s not forget that this man to this day is doing things few have or can replicate. Great video, 10/10.
