Yngwie Malmsteen ORIG OZ LP Odyssey EX ’88 Polydor 8354511 Heavy Metal Original OZ LP released in 1988 on Polydor Records. Cat: 835451-1. Comes with printed lyric insert which has a few small tears around edges and is in VG+ condition.
Rising Force was a revelation upon its release in 1984; Eddie Van Halen had introduced dazzling speed to the realm of rock guitar technique, and the compositions of Randy Rhoads had begun to fuse heavy metal with neo-classical influences, but no one before Yngwie Malmsteen was able to combine those elements with such blinding virtuosity. Malmsteen's innovative guitar style made Rising Force a mandatory primer for '80s metal guitarists, with its classical chord progressions and Malmsteen's use of harmonic minor scales, a wide vibrato imitative of classical violinists, and impossibly fast picking techniques, including the sweep-picked arpeggio (sort of a cross between strumming a chord and picking each note individually).
