In 2001, Yngwie Malmsteen joined the new Japan Philharmonic Orchestra to play a Concerto Suite for Electric Guitar. Malmsteen wrote the concerto in e flat minor and the results are astounding. His playing is lightning-quick throughout this unique presentation of rock meets classical. Although the blend of rock music with classical is well documented over the years in many progressive and art rock albums, this is an exception to what you may have heard before. I have to say that this is not your ordinary recording and to see it happen before your eyes is a real treat.

Sometimes a reunion can be an embarrassing thing. But X acquit themselves most admirably on the appropriately-titled Live In Los Angeles, taped November 26 and 27, 2004 in the city where the punk legends first burst into raucous life. With no more set decoration than a curtain with a large
