Heard of, yes. Heard, I don't think so, though if memory serves, Malmsteen used to fancy himself Paganini's musical descendant.
Yup, that's pretty much the gist of it. Yngwie patterns his playing after the violin, and good ole Niccolo is his favorite player.
I saw him open for Maiden at the Philadelphia Spectrum back in...late '86 or early '87. Pretty good stuff, though his ego was *enormous*.
I can imagine, seeing as how one can all but see him strutting around whilst listening to one of his albums.
What was Maiden like?
>"how about Vivaldi"
One of my favorite Foxtrot strips ever had a Vivaldi joke. :)
