Don't care what anyone says, but Yngwie was ON FIRE on those first two albums with his lead playing. Some of the most inspired leads of the period, that's for sure

Agreed about Slayer, I can think of only 2 solos that sound like they were thought out before recording...Crionics and Divine Intervention

Agreed! I mean, come on...I Am A Viking?
I just figured Yngwie was automatically implied as one of THE 80's shredders.

Oh if we're doing honorable mentions for the "technically not" shredders then by all means let me end the thread:

Dudes, let's not forget his Odyssey album. That album killed, the songs were catchy, and the singer is probably my favourite of all the other yngwie vocalists.

Dopefish lives!
Even up to Alchemy, there were always at least a few really good songs on Yngwie's records IMHO. People are missing out when they think there's only mindless neoclassical wank on these records. Odyssey is probably the most coherent though and yeah, great performance by Joe Lynn Turner. The records he did with Jeff Scott Soto ruled pretty much too.

Wow. I was expecting a lot more Yngwie bashing...

Wow, that's awesome
Not really noone knows who he is ... hahahhahahaha
We planned on doing a few Apocrypha songs but couldn't get Fredianelli to say ok, well we actually never got a reply, but I wouldn't want to be out there playing his stuff without his permission.

Shame. That band is so underrated.
Can't believe I almost forgot Tommy Vitterli aka Tommy T. Baron.

I forgot that I used to own this on cassette tape! Part of my vast Shrapnel collection. Well...since the Yngwie song 'Crystal Ball' has been mentioned, I guess I'd next have to go with...

Sexy Shawn Lane with the Willy's, shreddy AOR greatest guitar solo ever (starting at 3:30):
Obvious choice (startin around 3:13):
Another great free solo from Jarzombek on this very Rushy part (from 3:20):
