Eternal Bliss from Yngwie Malmsteen's new studio album Parabellum.
PARABELLUM
In a new interview with Robert Cavuoto for MyGlobalMind.com, Yngwie Malmsteen discusses the creation of his upcoming new album Parabellum, what inspires him to write such masterful songs, why he is the most grateful person on the planet, and his constant desire to grow as a musician. In the following excerpt, Malmsteen talks about the late, great Ronnie James Dio.
Robert Cavuoto: The first time I saw you perform was opening for Dio. I know that you are a big fan of his and even covered Aerosmith’s 'Dream On' together. Did you ever try and connect on creating original music?
Yngwie Malmsteen: "Ronnie and I had many late-night talks about that! We knew that we were both too hard-headed and born leaders. I think we would have complimented each other well. We had such mutual respect for each other. The first time I ever saw him perform was with Rainbow when I was a little kid in 1976. I go way back with him. When I played with Steeler, he used to come and check me out all the time. I don’t know what he was thinking at the time. We played on stage together and in the studio more than once. It was always great, but as far as a long-term thing, it would have been like two bulls in the china shop [laughing]. He was a great guy and truly missed."
