Agree with both here.....he was almost Malmsteen level on The New Order(maybe that's why the guy in the video ommitted songs from that album. He's awesome(Skolnick). Cool video, no doubt dude did a good job there. Thanks for posting.

BangerTv is a channel by Sam Dunn from documentaries Metal evolution and "Rush: beyond the lighted stage" and a Maiden doc.
Also Martin Popoff is involved. Writer of a zillion metal/hard rock biographies...

I watched that series, it was pretty cool. Interesting show.
Skolnick definitely a great player and the video above was great, thanks for sharing.
