Impellitteri Phantom of the Operah

[Kapo_Polenton]

I know he is a bit cheesy and cringe worthy at times but boy do I enjoy Impellitteri's rippin' and Rob Rock's vocals. They are a great duo. I honestly like Impellitteri more now than I do Malmsteen. He pinball machine rips a lot but he always has these cool pedal tone riffs and melodic arpeggios that suck me in.

I'm honestly surprised as cool as the melody of that song is that there haven't been more rock / metal cover versions

I've always likes Impellitteri, but that's too over the top for its own good.

Thanks for posting, I enjoyed that. He was ripping just about that whole song, did he play a power chord at all? Haha. I lost track of him for a lot of years, but a couple of months ago I went back through a lot of his newer albums I missed.

LOVE this. I have been watching/listening to Rob/Chris since I was a kid when they were in a local band called Vice. This is killer.
