Info:
Coming off the rather bland MAGNUM OPUS, Yngwie returned the following year in 1996 with INSPIRATION, an album of cover songs showcasing his incredible command of the electric guitar as well as some of the songs that were important to his growth as an international rock guitar star. Backed by a host of former bandmates, Yngwie lays into classic works by Kansas, Rush, Scorpions, and of course Deep Purple and Rainbow, the bands of his idol Ritchie Blackmore. Lots of times in the rock world, cover songs never live up to the originals, but that isn't the case with INSPIRATION's 11 tracks where Yngwie puts his own spin on these tunes, and it usually works out for the better.
