malmsteen didnt really revolutionise music la... but he did stir up interest in neo classical rock ...he is still one of THE icons of that genre.

personally i feel the ONE person who revolutionised music was michael jackson. His music was really good.

 

[DoubleBlade]

or maybe i should say "popularise" cause i know that at that point in time , the guitar playing industry was somehow becoming stagnant and people were really getting sick and tired of hearing the same old style of playing all over again....
