{"id":599,"count":44,"description":"Yngwie Johan Malmsteen (born Lars Johan Yngve Lannerb\u00e4ck; 30 June 1963) is a Swedish guitarist, songwriter, composer, and bandleader. Malmsteen first became known in the 1980s for his neoclassical metal playing style in heavy metal, and has released 20 studio albums in a career spanning over 40 years. In 2009, Time magazine rated Malmsteen as number 9 among the 11 greatest electric guitar players of all time.\r\n\r\nMalmsteen was born Lars Johan Yngve Lannerb\u00e4ck in Stockholm, Sweden, the third child of a musical family. At the age of ten Malmsteen created his first band, Track on Earth, consisting of himself and a friend from school playing the drums. At the age of twelve he took his mother's maiden name Malmsten as his surname, then slightly changed it to Malmsteen and altered his third given name Yngve to \"Yngwie\". As a teenager he was heavily influenced by classical music, particularly 19th century Italian virtuoso violinist and composer Niccol\u00f2 Paganini, as well as Johann Sebastian Bach, a German multi-instrumentalist and composer of the 18th century. During this time, he also discovered his most important guitar influence, Ritchie Blackmore. Malmsteen has stated that Jimi Hendrix had no musical impact on him and did not contribute to his style, but watching on 18 September 1970 TV news reporting on his death, where footage was shown of Hendrix smashing and burning his guitar At the Monterey Pop Festival of 1967, made Malmsteen think, \"This is really cool.\"","link":"https:\/\/www.rockdownload.org\/en\/download\/yngwie-malmsteen","name":"Yngwie Malmsteen","slug":"yngwie-malmsteen","taxonomy":"category","parent":0,"meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Yngwie Malmsteen Discography Download - Rock Download (EN)<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Yngwie Malmsteen discography download.
