The legendary guitarist is finally back.
Calling him a master or a virtuoso is stating the obvious for anyone with even a slight interest in guitar. However, these terms do not fully do justice to his talent and importance. Countless guitarists have copied a small part of the vast musical spectrum that characterizes him, but no one has ever managed to equal Yngwie over the last four decades!
With 'Blue Lightning,' our man once again demonstrates his incredible dexterity and versatility, but above all pays brilliant homage to the world of blues that has nourished his artistic fiber for so long. Those who expect Malmsteen to cover these tracks as the originals sound will undoubtedly be in for a big shock! Because that's not at all what he did. He masterfully transformed classics like "Smoke On The Water" or "Purple Haze" in his own style. He also wrote four new tracks for this magnificent album.
