[Yngwie] Malmsteen was cursed by three things: a tremendous amount of technical musical prowess, the complete absence of any musical soul, and a horrific unwillingness to pick a stage name.

True, true. But his album with Joe Lynn Turner is still good.

Also, Yngwie had an unhealthy obsession with Ritchie Blackmore.
