Yngwie Malmsteen: The Complete 1984 Alcatrazz Interview (Audio)

JasOJasO Frets: 93

One of the perks of being an editor for Guitar Player magazine in the 1970s and '80s is that up-and-coming players were anxious to do interviews with us. This was clearly the case in January 1984, when 20-year-old Yngwie Malmsteen, who'd recently moved to the U.S. and had just begun touring with Alcatrazz, gave me a remarkably insightful 85-minute interview. (This one pre-dates the interview featured in our 1985 cover story, his first in a nationally published music magazine, by about a year.) As you'll hear, Yngwie was bright, articulate, passionate about his music, and anxious to share his views with other guitarists. Here's the link to both parts of our conversation:
