Jeff Scott doing a good impersonation of Freddie
 
"then I joined Alcatraz and the same thing happened with Graham Bonnet...........................What the fuck this guy doing....trying to steal my show!!!"


 
Jeff scott soto is awesome. I really like the talisman stuff.
 
Was just listening to Facing the Animal! Damn how good album it is and Mats Leven sounds good on the album! Too bad that it's Yngwie's 2nd last great album... Alchemy's the last great one.

Graham Bonnet is terrible. I don't understand how he ever got to work with anyone. :confused:
 
I'm a big fan of Mike Vescera. I don't think he gets enough credit out of all the Yngwie singers.
 
Jeff Scott Soto was my favorite vocalist Yngwie had.

Bonnet I used to hate until I saw him live, the dude does have a voice and puts a lot of emotion and passion in it. I guess it was an acquired taste but the guy really hits the notes!
 
I've always like Graham Bonnett, but I don't know why.

Joe Lynn Turner is probably my favorite of all Yngwie singers. I haven't really got into the newer Mark Boals stuff, and I can't stand the Ripper stuff.

Couldnt agree more...I always feel like he's yelling at me!

Vescera kicks ass. I remember the first time I heard Soldier of fortune with Loudness. Great voice on that guy!
 
Mats Leven is by far my favorite singer that he's had and Facing The Animal is easily my favorite album of his. :thumbsup:

Mark jammed with us on Sunday at a superbowl party, great singer. He sang backup vox on the band I'm playing with's record.

the only reason why Graham was even selected to join with Rainbow is because DIO split and left Rainbow hanging on a contract they needed to fulfill to put a record ASAP ( which most of the music was already recorded during the Long Live Rock Roll sessions in a Haunted Chateau in France ) and Ritchie was aiming for a candidate that had big range for the songs, i think Glover had a lot to do with the decision too since he was hired back as the producer and bassist. I was never a big fan of Graham myself either because he didn't really contribute to anything but cheesy lyrics and a gay look. The Alcatrazz record with YNGWIE, Grahamm didn't write a single melody or note...but managed to write dumb lyrics IMO. Yngwie wrote that entire score within 2 weeks of his hiring and they had the balls to slam him at that time.

I have to sing all his parts while playing lead, lol. The myspace is still under construction as we're doing a photoshoot tomorrow, but you can check some tunes out here https://www.myspace.com/deltanaut (though I joined after they made this so I'm not on these recordings).

Ritchie must have been going for a singer that can't sing and frontman that's not good to look at... :lol: :LOL: He always sounds like he's just out of his range.....the songs on the Alcatrazz album are really cool....
