Malmsteen - which one next ?

I do have 2 of Malmsteen CD's -
Joe Lynn Turner, crystal ball CD
and the black star song, CD
( STEELER also )

What is his next best release ?
Thx -

PS - Savatage: Sirens/Dungeons CD is great listening !

You already have my two favorites (debut and Odyssey)

I think Trilogy should be your next purchase.

Either Trilogy or Marching Out.

Trilogy

I like Fire & Ice.

I like Marching Out more than Trilogy, but you can't go wrong with either album.

Trilogy

Marching Out and then Trilogy. MO is a contender with Odyssey as my favourite Malmsteen record. You can't beat songs like "I Am A Viking" and "Don't Let It End".

Wow - I'm surprised - I thought maybe he released something -
lets say - in the last 15 years - that was - well - better than his early material -
NOT Alcatraz

I thought that Facing The Animal was pretty good, but that is from 1997. I do have Unleash The Fury(2005). I just haven't listened to it that much.

I love odyssey. JLT is one of my favourite singers.

I also love the one he did with ripper owens. Damnation game is such a memorable track.

Facing the Animal is the only Yngwie album I've ever heard. It was an old Columbia House pickup in high school. I thought it was an amazing album.

Bought this release - it's all instrumental -
that's his wife - on the cover - says she's executive producer too - lol
It's an okay release - if you listen closely -
you can hear all his previous riffs from decades ago -
for a snowy night - or very late at night.

Facing the animal is awesome. I fully agree.

Same here, brothers, I grabbed that one back in the day and loved it. As for your next pick up, Glower, I would go either Animal, Trilogy, or Eclipse. If you want a latter day offering, then try Unleash the Fury or Perpetual Flame with Ripper Owens on vox.

Spinning Marching Out right now. Forgot how good this album is.

The only two Yngwie CD's I own are these:





I've thought of picking up Unleash the Fury with Ripper, but always found something more interesting instead.

Ripper wasn't singing on Unleash the Fury.

I only have one Yngwie album with Ripper behind the mic. It's Perpetual Flame and it's one hell of an album. Here's a great song:

Then I meant Perpetual Flame. Whatever he was on.

I kind of gave up on Malmsteen and Perpetual Flame was the last album i bought by him.

But i still like to revisit those old albums from time to time.

This thread just reminded me that I haven't bought the last 2 Malmsteen albums. The previous one, "World On Fire" was only available as an import and was super pricey; while the new Blues based album, "Blue Lightning" didn't really impress me too much. I saw it week of release but didn't want to pay $20 for a single disc that I wasn't gonna give much spin time to.

Listened to this song on the way in to work.
Reminds me a little of Christmas season - winter.
Thought it was interesting enough to share.
