I think this album is great! I fell in love with Yngwie listening to this album. I pray to be able to play guitar like him in this album!

I have not really listened to that album in a while. While it does have its unique qualities, particularly when he performs the material from his first two albums live, the albums I listen to most are the ones from after this one. Trilogy, Oddyssey, & Eclipse are the albums I listen to the most.

The last thing I bought was an instrumental album, where he worked with an orchestra. I cannot find the CD right now, as I played it, & then I thought I placed it wit my other Yngwie CD's, but apparently, it's like it sprung legs & walked out on me.

It's a great album, I think it's Yngwie's best one. My favorite songs are Far Beyond the Sun, Now Your Ships Are Burned, and As Above So Below.

Is that the album with the song Black Star? I've listened to that album in the past but I only remember Black Star. My favorite Rising Star album is Odyssey. Black Star is amazing. It's a classic.

I don't know Odissey, I'll give it a listen but I can tell you Rising Force contains a lot of other beautiful songs, not only Black Star.

Rising force show us how malmsteen is a genius. When i hear evil eye, black star, far beyond the sun, the ships are burned, the whole musics in this album, i don´t understand why people says " malmsteen = don´t have any feeling". These guys are totally insane! Maybe its because his style sounds repetitive, obviously, anyone guy wanna be like him! This makes him a true legend, like jimi hendrix or steve vai
