Then why in the world would you say something so stupid as "No one besides guitarists gives a damn how fast you can play"? There's plenty of evidence that these artists' main goals do not include playing fast.

Nice vid, FaSho .. I enjoyed it. :)

Malmsteen has gotten a bit more chubby on his later days, I see. He certainly is an extremely accomplished guitarist, but I'm not so fond of his albums .. Or what I've heard of them anyways. I'll give'em another shot, though.

I know. He played it better then any other version I've heard though.

That was honestly ridiculously boring. So what, he can play really fast. Let's hear him compose a song that actually sounds good.

Really the only Malmsteen song I still listen to is Black Star. It's in my journal if you want to listen to it, but I doubt you'd like it.

eric johnson is the freaking man. it doesn't get much better than cliffs of dover.

I always liked Alive in an Ultra World so I'll take Vai

Do you even like Eric Johnson? He's more on the melodic side then the others.

I agree! I think that Satriani is the best Guitarist in the world.

Cliffs Of Dover beats everything Malmsteen's done, sadly none of Johnson's other songs compare.
