Malmsteen is not the greatest guitarist, in fact his music can be downright difficult to sit through. He has talent, no doubt, and his best work is when he is playing classical, which he does better than anyone. Refer to satriani for the best guitarist, whose music has meaning and is not just loud noise.

Yngwie Malmsteen, the extremely fast virtuoso, listened to hendrix, one of his inspiration. He got into 100 best solos....but only one song
Hes not very creative at writing tabs but the solo in "black star" got into 100
