Ive been listening to yngwie for almost 10 years and was so impressed by his live performances and albums i literally didnt know he has music videos besides ill see the light tonight........😅
@Impellitterii, in your praise for this fantastic track, you left out keyboardist extraordinaire, Jimmy Waldo. Let's not kid ourselves. Although this song has a great guitar solo and some very good vocals and lyrics, Jimmy Waldo contributes some great keyboard parts and he wrote all (or at least nearly all) of the music for this wonderful track.
A few minutes ago, I DISCOVERED SOMETHING NEW about this song that I never was aware of before!!!! The Songwriting credits for Island In The Sun lists Malmsteen, Waldo, & Bonnet. Earlier, I was checking out some rough, unreleased demos by the band New England, which happens to be the band that bassist Gary Shea & keyboardist Jimmy Waldo played in prior to joining Bonnet in Alcatrazz. Right before I played this video, I heard the New England demo "Take Another Ride" for the very first time. AS SOON AS I HEARD THE FIRST 3 or 4 CHORDS OF THE INTRO, I SAID TO MYSELF "THIS is 'ISLAND IN THE SUN'". Yes, the intro & chorus sections of "Island In The Sun" are lifted directly from the New England demo "Take Another Ride" with nearly identical sounding bass, keys, and drums although they were rather crudely recorded in the demo. There are some differences though and the changes that were made by Alcatrazz are definitely for the better. The verse section was reworked a bit (made heavier, less pop, and superior keys), the song's name and lyrics were completely changed, and to no one's surprise Yngwie's guitar solo was a definite improvement over the solo in the demo version. The Songwriting credits for 'Island In The Sun' lists Malmsteen, Waldo, & Bonnet as song writers. Unfortunately, I didn't have access to the New England CD box set that the demo came from so I was unable to see the songwriting credits for "Take Another Ride". (95% or more of New England's songs were written by their guitarist John Fannon, but it is apparent that Waldo either wrote "Take Another Ride" or he was the primary co-writer for the song.) As for the Alcatrazz credits, I'm sure Bonnet deserves much (if not all) the credit for the new lyrics (although Waldo could have contributed to the lyrics). Bonnet likely contributed to the changes made in the verse melody, also. Although most of the keyboard parts are the same as those in the New England demo, Jimmy Waldo definitely rewrote his keyboard parts for the verse (making them much more complex and layered). I am a bit puzzled as to why Yngwie was credited as a songwriter. I'm sure he wrote 100% of the guitar solo, but it would be very unusual and highly suspect to think Yngwie got a songwriting credit for his guitar solo despite the fact it is an incredible solo. Perhaps, he helped make changes to the verses, but I'm willing to bet that Waldo and Bonnet deserve most of the credit for changes to the verses. Although Waldo was a co-writer on about half of the songs on the Alcatraz debut album, I do believe he wrote all (or most all) of the music for this song.
Rumor is Richie Blackmore was angry that Graham cut his hair. I think it was brilliant. Stood apart from all the long haired singers of the day. And what a voice. My god. And Yngwie; he had star quality written all over him and was destined for big things; that live shot of him is bad ass. Ahhh...the memories

Bonnet has such a unique look. I love it. Its some kinda Miami Vice feel. Reminder that most rockers at the time grew out their blonde locks and wore denim, leather, and towards the mid to late 80s some dabbled with spandex.
Yes! I've been a devoted fan of Yngwie ever since a friend played Black Star way back in the late 80's, early 90;s and after years of viewing countless pictures this is the very first and only time I've seen him with a V!
My favorite song from that album was "Jet To Jet". That had the best Yngwie solo, fast but melodic with different parts, like little solos and melodies attached together to make one great part.
Somwhere in the 80s an music executive : " You know , in the car garage works this guy , he's not much like Plant or Coverdale , but the boy really can sing !! You should hear him ... "
Hey anyone at the Poplar Creek show with Ted Nugent back in 1983 and seen them outdoors??? What a Show. Had First row and have some amazing photos of Yngwie throwing his guitar in the air. Pro Canon camera.
lyrics They named it the rock, land of the living dead A repose for the rich and famous All the infamous would tell each other's lies Why did they want to tell the truth [Chorus] On an island in the sun Cool Pacific winds blow Most were poets and they wrote in basic prose On the walls of their sunset blvd. In their nine by five rooms, became inspired By the silence in sight of the city [Full chorus] On an island in the sun Cool Pacific winds blow Just across the bay Battered by the waves
How is Graham Bonnet clever enough to get hold of dynamite in prison but also dumb enough to shield himself from the blast at point blank with a flimsy mattress
i like the guitar riffs 💪🎼🎸 - very positive Happy sounding song - & of course with power lead vocal singer voice & the band & young Yngwie energetic articulate picking style 😎
Yes, it's no secret Yngwie was a huge Blackmore fan. All his poses are Blackmore too, like when he gets down on one knee with his other leg outstretched. (And remember, Graham Bonnet had just come from playing with the original - on Ritchie's Rainbow album "Down To Earth" 1979)
Island In The Sun Is An Absolutely Awesome Spectacular Great Straight Up KickAss Rock N Roll Song By Alcatraz And Total Rocks It Needs To Be Fully Cranked Up All The Way To Full Maximum Volume.🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎙️🎙️🎙️🎙️🎙️🎙️🎙️🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
hey guys... I met this band yesterday, watching a documentary about Steve Vai... and I found out that Yngwie was the previous guitarist.. Enjoying your sound too much.. Are you still active??? Hugs from Brazil!!!!!!
This is Malmsteens best solo in my opinion..Its short and full of his licks but its tasteful and has some feeling in it.. I think it was his best work . The rest is full on speed and accuracy but zero soul.. This was before my time , but i wonder what the general consensus was when they first heard This.. That solo and guitar playing is on another planet from anything at the time.
Yup one of his best. The first thing I did was take my tape to my guitar teacher so that he could teach me the solo! When the Alcatrazz album came out in 83 it was mind blowing. In my opinion I still think it’s his best his best work 🔥
Im almost 40 yaras old i found bands like Alcatrazz, UDO, WASP, Accept theougg a TH-camr calls himself Razorfist! I owe him alot because this shit rocks WAY more than anything since the 90s! NOT Grunge ALL Grunge blows! We literlaly went from "Girls, Girls, Girls", "I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day", "Pour some sugar on me" (even though i dont care for most of that music) to crap bands like Pearl Jam, Nirvana (overrated), Alice in Chains, Stone Temple Pilots, etc. Whiny, hate everything, undo yourself, crap music. But thats what the record labels pushed so thats what america started to consume. Even though Metal was still raging in the background to most! Metal will always be the Best!
Que pesado que esto jajaja lo digo en forma sarcastica , esto es rock/pop me hace acordar a Gloria de Laura Branigan pero con riffs guitarreros de Yngwie Malsteen y los otros temas son hard rock nose porque lo consideran metal pero es un tema buenisimo para escuchar en las radios de musica retro lastima que no tuvieron la fama que tuvo Van halen.
So frustrating that this band broke up. Graham Bonnet and Yngwvie were a great combination! This was an incredible album. To me it holds up against the best first albums (I.e. Van Halen 1, Led Zepplen I, etc.)
On top of being a frikken force of nature on vocals,Graham Bonnet looked super cool in his natty suits,shades and pompadour. Perfect frontman
The fact that he didn’t look metal at all is kind of the most metal thing ever.
super metal and if legend is correct he cut his hair after his audition to rainbow to piss ritchie off.
He is a fucking metal GOD !! ASSAULT ATTACK by MSG is one of the greatest metal albums ever
Graham just has another level. Most people don’t really know who he is 😂😂😂. Super cool vocalist.
Ive been listening to yngwie for almost 10 years and was so impressed by his live performances and albums i literally didnt know he has music videos besides ill see the light tonight........😅
He has a couple more music videos. Search it up
Wow! Almost 40 years have passed. Young Bonnet & Yngwie. It's still a fantastic and wonderful track.
I know Bonnet & Yngwie, but who's Young? Sounds like a great trio
I saw, Bonnet Sang in Dublin, in a chair after a back surgery, the same awesome as this
Malcolm Young was having a spat with Angus and was gonna play rhythm guitar in Alcatrazz.

No parole for rock and roll
この曲をたまたま聞いてからハードロックが好きになった
Bonnet has such a unique look. I love it. Its some kinda Miami Vice feel. Reminder that most rockers at the time grew out their blonde locks and wore denim, leather, and towards the mid to late 80s some dabbled with spandex.
In the long run, Bonnet's look held up better.
He has a unique voice , you know it's him when you hear it❤
@@hardluck8732 Indeed. Timeless for the most part.
I grew up on Yngwie and this is the first time I have ever seen him play a V.............
Yes! I've been a devoted fan of Yngwie ever since a friend played Black Star way back in the late 80's, early 90;s and after years of viewing countless pictures this is the very first and only time I've seen him with a V!
He also has a Gibson V, awesomely modified with Strat bridge and pickguard setup.
Wish they made more videos during their prime in the 80's, what an awesome era
My favorite song from that album was "Jet To Jet". That had the best Yngwie solo, fast but melodic with different parts, like little solos and melodies attached together to make one great part.
It is my second favorite . Suffer me is the n1 for me
Yeah, "Jet To Jet" has great playing, but the song itself is a terrible Rainbow rip off.
アルバムは「お気に入り❤」でした。
The Album is my favorite one. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖🌈🌈🌈🎸
解説読んで「イングヴェイ・マルムスティーン獲得合戦」そんなにすごかったんだな~。驚きますよね。
スウェーデンが生んだ天才。🦚
2022 and still rockin. A timeless song with a great voice by Bonnet and Guitar melody by Malmsteen \m/
This is the track that got me into Alcatrazz AND buy those Ray-Ban shades.
Excellent Alcatrazz👏🏻👏🏻 Graham's voice🎤🎸🥁
“No one can make a weirder Alcatraz Island music video than The Scorpions.”
Graham Bonnet: “Hold my beer.”
Fantastic song!
Haven't even born yet, and Yngwie was already playing songs i will love untill these days. What a band.
Absolutely 80s!And Hiroshima mon amour is the name of a gig venue based in Turin,Piedmont,Northwest Italy.
Master Album in ALL categories 🙏
My favorite of all Yngwie recordings, as well as Live Sentence. (Don't tell Yngwie....)
Graham is maddening. He should have anchored an all time great band. I would have loved him to have a few more years in rainbow.
The James Dean of Metal.
FINALLY! The official release of the classic MTV vid. The best, salud
I remember watching this on VH1 Classic's "Metal Mania"
What a great album, lyrics, guitar, music.
The Left handed Sunburst Start is an awesome instrument. I'd sell my soul to have one!
One of my favorite videos of a great band.
This album blew my mind, as someone who wanted to learn guitar
2:53 ザイクロンのガイコツ元社長が阿波踊りのポーズで正面を向いて両肩をガタンと落としながら踊っているシーンを想起してしまいます。
The MAGIC of 80 z !!!!
That magic is just cocaine, lots of cocaine
Just heard that song. What a voice. Don't know if he can still sing like that.
The video is definitely a weird concept but damn, the song is a masterpiece. Special props to Yngwie and Bonnet. Those two are brilliant.
Somwhere in the 80s an music executive : " You know , in the car garage works this guy , he's not much like Plant or Coverdale , but the boy really can sing !! You should hear him ... "
Hey anyone at the Poplar Creek show with Ted Nugent back in 1983 and seen them outdoors??? What a Show. Had First row and have some amazing photos of Yngwie throwing his guitar in the air. Pro Canon camera.
What a beautiful time it must have been to see all these guys in their prime❤. I'm nostalgic ajd I hadn't even been born yet!
2:55 3:50 おんなのこかわいい
いや〜懐かしい‼︎
Graham Bonnet is one fantastic singer, what a perfect match for Yngwie soaring guitar playing.
The 4:20 time length of this Alcatraz video didn't escape my watch
It's actually 4:20 day, too. Intentional?
Rare video of Yngwie using something other than a Strat.
lyrics
They named it the rock, land of the living dead
A repose for the rich and famous
All the infamous would tell each other's lies
Why did they want to tell the truth
[Chorus]
On an island in the sun
Cool Pacific winds blow
Most were poets and they wrote in basic prose
On the walls of their sunset blvd.
In their nine by five rooms, became inspired
By the silence in sight of the city
[Full chorus]
On an island in the sun
Cool Pacific winds blow
Just across the bay
Battered by the waves
M A S T E R P I E C E
He looks so cool with an upside down Strat 2:30
1:21 im wondering if the director was inspired by the escape of Corwin of amber (novel by Zelazny)
How is Graham Bonnet clever enough to get hold of dynamite in prison but also dumb enough to shield himself from the blast at point blank with a flimsy mattress
Damn it! You ruined my experience forever! :)
From the looks of things he was sleeping his way around getting hold of stuff.
Graham Bonnet's band, Alcatrazz personeel :
Graham Bonnet - vocals
Jimmy Waldo - keyboards
Gary Shea - bass
Yngwie Malmsteen - guitars
Jan Uvena - drums
i like the guitar riffs 💪🎼🎸 - very positive Happy sounding song - & of course with power lead vocal singer voice & the band & young Yngwie energetic articulate picking style 😎
Great song, great band, could've been huge but Yngwie went silly.
@@ThinPicks 🫨😁😎 Yngwie was young at that time very keen to explore 😬🎼🎶🎸
@@faizaledge Yes I agree, still we have one good album plus a live one (if you can find it) that sounds strong to this day.

グラハムファンになって40年近くたつけど何故かみたことなかった❗️若いね全員‼️😄😄😄♥️😡♥️
Probably Yngwie's best song solo ever. Cool melodies and blazing runs... When he just riffs off everything sounds the same...
I bet that mattress at @2:30 is going to provide much cover from a tnt blast 💥 😂
wow, Weezer should cover this classic
It's weird seeing Yngwie be a team player.
He never was. This whole chord progression is classic Yngwie. 😂
@@Acekorv your mom was though.
@@JohnSmith-cb4sb do your music theory homework and you’ll realize.
Got to admit, he was great on this track
この初期MTVの感じ、ダサいけど嫌いじゃない。インギーがV弾いてるのも時代を感じる。グラハムの最盛期、素晴らしいです。
AriaProIIのモデルやね〜日本に来たときに入手したのかな?アースシェイカーのアルバムジャケにも使われてるヤツ
多分ビデオ映えのためだけだろうけどなんか嬉しいわ
Рок 🎸 навсегда здорово 👍
Such a great song! And the video rocks as well! :)
I prefer this to Alcatrazz's current sound.
0:44 : you already know that you got to fear that man 😅
GBonnet, the perfect rock frontman....YMalmsteem, the perfect lead guitar.....both....monster of rock
The early days tone perfekt less is more this is the proof :-)
Yngwie not using a Strat feels like this video escaped from Earth-2 or something 😂
hey guys... I met this band yesterday, watching a documentary about Steve Vai... and I found out that Yngwie was the previous guitarist.. Enjoying your sound too much.. Are you still active??? Hugs from Brazil!!!!!!
The 80s trademark keyboard.
THIS IS COOL, BUT WHEN'S THE NEXT JOE'S DELI EPISODE????
🖤🤗🤗🤗 amazing song ever
Graham always looked like a used car salesman that can sing his ass off
Привет 80-е!❤
Yes so cool
Music sure has changed a lot since then..... I don't hear anything nice like that anymore..!
Evil bastards in charge makin evry1 ..shit4brains...!
急にアルカトラズが聞きたくなった。
コピーったなぁ、コレ。
最高。
ギターがかなり難しい!イングヴェイを初めてみた時はかなり驚いたよ!
Malmsteen was great on this album.
in a totally different light than as a band leader.
This is Malmsteens best solo in my opinion..Its short and full of his licks but its tasteful and has some feeling in it.. I think it was his best work . The rest is full on speed and accuracy but zero soul.. This was before my time , but i wonder what the general consensus was when they first heard This..

Never knew NPH fronted an 80’s band.
Did Alcatrazz film this video during their stop in Honolulu?
The TARDIS lagging again ! I am now in the 80's.
Graham bonnet was the strangest singer for a rock and roll band I can imagine, I'm glad yngwie didn't stay on for very long.
Brasil Paraná Ribeirão do Pinhal
Great song and a video but question is what crimes did they commit to make them get sent to jail
2:22
This video should just be titled YNGWIE PLAYS A FLYING V. Nothing else matters. haha
no
He looks pretty cool playing the upside down strat in the prison jumper. 2:30
Or "Yngwie plays while going to the Electric chair and does not give a f**k"
a Strating V😂😂
First time hearing them. Just heard the guitarist humbled Eddie Van Halen!

A surprisingly poppy song for Yngwie.
Yngwie & Bonnet so nice
This is the best album in the world you hear it from 1 to last and there is not a bad song no heavy metal bad has ever done this
Certo che l’avevo vista aA Rca trazZ !!

Alcatrazz is Graham Bonnet sorry but is the thruth.
I cannot believe the singer is from Skegness.
bro you should make a full cover
Yassan !
I can see why Yngwie didn’t last with Alcatrazz. The camera wasn’t on him nearly enough…
横山ヤッサン
This looks like the beginning to 40% of every porn film made in the 80s
Who would even care to notice you mustly only be like 27
Respect alcatrazz
Bonnet always reminded me a bit of Tom Hanks
Not even remotely similiar
Was this filmed in the Alcatraz jail
