He played his 1st live gig and went back next night for another show and asked the owner " whos here" thinking some big name was in the house. Owner said they came to see you!! Thats all it took. Word of mouth worked!
I bought this album back in the day, me and my friend, who were into guitars were like 'who is this guy he is amazing?' We listened to this album all day and night. The next day we went to see a Ted Nugent Concert and the opening act was Alcatrazz.
I saw that tour as well. I went up to the stage to talk to the kid who was doing soundcheck for the guitarist. I told him he had an amazing job being a roadie for the band. He said " Well I'm actually in the band man". It was Yngwie himself. Lol.
Back in the day when I bought the album, I wore out the paper circle in the middle because I used to place my finger right on it to slow down the record so I could try to hear the individual notes of the solos, especially the first Rising Force album. Man, I miss the 80s.
Looking back, you can really hear how yngwie influenced alot of the mid 80s LA guitarists with just this. I'm sure alot of the guys on the scene with Steeler grabbed a copy of this and wore it out.
It's really good but I like I am a viking solo bit better what about I'll see the light tonight and krakatau are awesome and then there is Trilogy suite solo

I wish Yngwie would be more humble about his time in Steeler. Yes, he was the star of the band, but it was still his ticket to glory. Not to mention the album is just damn good.
Steeler is medicore. The singing is bad. The rhythm guitar (Keel himself) is bad. The drumming is weak and stiff. Yngwie is like a Ferrari with its engine running while the rest of Steeler sound like rusty old Ford pick ups with holes in their mufflers.
@@johnp.johnson1541 seriously dude...Ron Keel is one of the most underrated vocalists of his time. Listen to the song No Pain No Gain and shit your pants.
I still have the vinyl. The pure ascending and then pure descending 3 note per string scale drills in the Hot on Your Heals solo were brutal at the time. Probably only DiMeola had done anything on that level, although he wouldn't have put THAT into a piece of music lol! Great alternate picking skill builder that i still do every day. I think they left that solo out of this video.
i try to get the run and after of years trying i do it now clearly he does upward on the ascending plus downward on descending! and you know we are in the 2021 this is from 1983...
Steeler (with Yngwie) played at a tiny club in Anaheim, CA on a week night when I was in High School. I remember being bummed cuz one of my buddies that doesn't even play guitar went to that gig..
@@z1g or maybe someone who doesn't like one million notes per second. Gets a bit monotonous really. Personally I think Vinnie Moore plays this neoclassical shit better although I realize Yngwie started that craze.
in the 80s when I had this on a cassette(anybody remember trading tapes?) Id fast forward to the solos lol,Yngwie was full of fire and grace back then,he really didnt fit into this band but at the same time he made this band,not even a blip on the radar without Yngwie,
Best work right here IMO..you can remember these..they're GREAT..can't stand that endless same thing over and over again now...melody vs shredding on and on..this isn't one trick pony here...
This would of been a perfect album if the vocalist only had some vibrato in his singing. This is probably Yngwie's best guitar tone sound if not Alcatraz.
After watching hundreds of down-tuned metal bands live, I’ve come to the conclusion that tuning down has little correlation with heaviness. Bands tune down to B and even A , and I don’t get the sense that they’re so much heavier than when I was young, in which tuning down even half a step was unusual. Heaviness is a totality that includes playing style, musical material, band dynamics, and, in the case of recordings, production. I still play in standard tuning myself. I like the string tension and sonic definition. If standard tuning was good enough for these bad-asses, it’s good enough for me.
@@roguenation I tune down to make the music meet my vocal range. I had thyroid cancer... this one I did in e flat though .... th-cam.com/video/FARDxnuPaYQ/w-d-xo.html I like Ron Keels acoustic version where he no longer sings like a kid in puberty. And dont expect Yngwie solos outta me. I had my neck fused c3-c7 front and back and I am lucky to even play slow stuff anymore.
40 years ago....it's astonishing. It still feels new to me in a way, to come out with such groundbreaking soloing. I'm sure he was already using sweeps back then, I wonder if he was also already using economy picking generally even then?
@@interestingthings8598 Yes he was obviously doing sweeps! Amusing how in recent years he denies doing them, I do think he's changed some of his note selections so he's going across strings less and using picking more, like the one at the end of FBTS. Maybe to try to be different or due to chubbier fingers now! I don't recall the guitar magazines right back in the old days identifying that he was using economy picking all the time for general purposes, i.e. when fast picking and changing strings. The tabs indicated the sweeps but did they note he was 'sweeping' just for general movement across strings back then? Maybe they did and I didn't realise it back then, but whenever they did big takes on economy picking, it was about Frank Gambale.
@@interestingthings8598 I think the guitar mags might have missed that he’s using same direction pick stroke when playing any line which crosses a string, that’s my point. They might have thought he was playing in a more traditional way, like John McLaughlin or some of the shredders of the time who might have used sweeps for arpeggios but not for the above scenarios. As I said, they always made a big point of Gambale’s ‘economy picking’ but for Malmsteen, his ‘sweep’ picking. If he was already using economy picking in the ‘general’ way (in addition to sweeps) then I think, as crazy as it sounds, he was actually underrated in that respect back then. Certainly none of me and my mates thought he was doing that. I’m curious, and will find out.
He says he does not sweep because is silly to give a name to pick strings one after another when doing an arpegio (like Schenker or everybody would do).
@@forelectricstring8833 I didn't see that one but I did hear him say he doesn't use sweeps at all. What he meant was, where some people would for example play an A-minor shape sweep all in that one position, he goes vertically and horizontally, so different note selection and with some cross-picking. I sense he might have changed some of his sweeps over the years to this method. Either way, he obviously uses sweeps and it's a logical word, he's just Yngwie being Yngwie there.
I actually like his Pre-solo career albums (solos) more because they didn't sound too repetitive, it's just raw in your face Rock arpeggios...His early 2000's and onwards effort sounded excruciatingly repetitive I actually stopped caring for his music for awhile
People make much of his speed and picking technique at the time, and understandably so... but his vibrato and bending are second to none. Absolutely the best in modern rock guitar
Bigdaddiosa His playing and composition improved over his first 3 solo albums. This sounds pretty basic compared to his solo material from Rising Force, Marching Out, and Trilogy. It’s still jaw dropping and beautiful but a bit more refined and complex in later albums.
Groundbreaking in its day but very repetative patterns, nowdays 8 yr old kids can be seen playing it all over social media ..the bar has been raised & Shred has diversified to include many more styles & techniques ..the old phrygian mode & Diminished scale all day lost its lure..Matteo Mancuso is the Man right now.
hahahaha, you dont mean Keel "the right to rock"?(1989) They tried do copy Twisted Sister kind of i reckon. Marvelous video hahaha th-cam.com/video/GWJg5P4s5Yw/w-d-xo.html
Define a great tapper from 1983 EVH excluded. Not a lot of them back then, you had people like Jeff Watson from Night Ranger who released their first album one year earlier. Personally i felt his 8 finger stuff gimmicky and unmusical, more visually impressive than anything and his alternate picking was far more interesting. Then you had Steve Lynch from Autograph, not a favorite but his tapping was pretty cool. YJM used it sparingly, octave taps here and there with occasional EVH esque parts thrown in. Not great as you say but it was never more than a minor part of his playing.
@@pleasepermitmetospeakohgre1504 Reb Beach didn't record his first album until 3 years later in 86, Vito Bratta's White Lion 2 years later in 85, Vai's flex-able in january 84. "the guy from Loudness" Akira Takasaki was primarily an alternate picker, while his early Loudness work plus his first solo album Tusk of jaguar from 82 had some tapping it's not enough to call him a great tapper. And what the hell are you smoking, Buckethead ? He was 14 in 83 and didn't record his first album until NINE years later. Jake E Lee just no, maybe later but not in 83.

@@pleasepermitmetospeakohgre1504 There's no video of Buckethead from 83. We are talking about GREAT tappers as you stated in your original post, not people who tapped on a few songs here and there because there was plenty of people who did that.

Jesus...no wonder Yngwie thought this band was beneath him ..singer sucks, and, you can tell his solo were too repetitive and going nowhere where he envisioned himself at. But nevertheless it as a way to get his foot in the door and the rest is history as they say.
Downright god awful music no doubt, but the playing is fucking sensational. I remember a quote from Yngwie where he said the band backstage would practice their stage moves lo. What a laugh. They are terrible.
Lots of good bands had really cheesy coordinated moves: MSG, Kiss, Helix, Scorpions and so forth. While cheesy, it's not a measure for how good/bad a band is.

And still blows my mind like it did when i first heard it when it came out!
epic. The vibrato is just so nasty!
isn't this the reason anyone would buy this cd, for the solos.
Yea i would rather push toothpicks under my fingernails than listen to Ron Keel "sing" , Jesus h fucking christ.
Si y no, las voz del gran Ronie Keel le da mucha fuerza a este disco y también los demás instrumentistas. Las composiciones en sí son geniales.
the entire time yngwie was in that band he was asking himself; "WTF am i doing here?"
Steeler (with Yngwie) played at a tiny club in Anaheim, CA on a week night when I was in High School. I remember being bummed cuz one of my buddies that doesn't even play guitar went to that gig..
Sounds like he's practicing his speed playing while there just happens to be a song playing behind him.
It hás a lot of melodies, awesome bending and insane vibrato
They forgot "the" solo, at the end of No Way Out. That's what blew my mind back in the day..
How the hell can 5 ppl dislike his ground breaking solos?! Morons!
Probably a jaded guitar player who used all 5 thumbs they have on one hand to hit the disslike.

yngwie was way more precise before he had his accident. hes just burning on this disc!
No doubt,.His accident DEFINITELY had an affect on his later playing career
Paul Grady what accident? car crash or something i think i heard of before, was that it?
Yeah. He wrecked his Ferrari I think. Fucked up his right hand and wrist
Paul Grady I think It was a jaguar..
An expensive car no doubt. ; )
Way waay ahead of his time..this was 1983 For fux sakes! when everyone was still playing Jimmy Page generic Pentatonics
He always spoke bad of this band. But I love those flowy free-timey Yngwie solos over the meat-and-potato rock riffs
