Michael Schenker Group - Live At Rockpalast 1981 (Full Concert Video)

[@dezertfox3130]

Every note is beautiful, penetrating and meaningful. He doesn't just wail away meaninglessly like others. The tone and choice of notes is beyond brilliant. There is nobody like him, he separates himself from the others.

[@Trapa73]

I think Bryan May is the same case. Each note with a purpose and meaning. I thank God for living at the same time as these excellent musicians.

[@arthurmurfitt7698]

@@Trapa73 agreed 👍🏻

[@AudiophileTubes]

Indeed! Well said.

[@A1Authority]

All that, huh?

[@Love.IsTheAnswer]

I feel the same exact way. He's the best. No one comes close for me. He's the essential metal/hard rock guitarist. Who wants to go up against his riffs and progressions? Michael Schenker. No competition.

Couldn't agree more, a really great team. Chris Glen never gets mentioned enough. That SAHB stuff was next level. Also, forgotten about Gary Barden, a proper frontman. Cozy, what more can you say and Paul Raymond was such an asset to any band.

I was lucky enough to see the guys on this tour . I was about 5 ft from Mr Schenker, awesome show . No gimmicks, no crap just a damn good band . Miss those days , glad I was there .

[@michaelehrhart9670]

I was front row...seated on the floor with the stage about 3 feet off the ground, in front of the blonde bomber at the Agora Ballroom in Atlanta, Georgia, on October 10, 1978...to see UFO (Raymond, Mogg, Parker, Way, Schenker) two weeks before SITN was recorded...so you know what form Schenker was in. A magical night. Ate tickets to see Neil Young's Rust Never Sleeps tour the same night at the Omni. I think I chose the more important show...!

I saw them a few years later at a small club in Oakland. I was also a few feet away. I saw Robin Trower atvthe same club around the same time. I think it was around 85. Mcauley Schenker Group.

Актриса с зелёными радужинами . Она представляется сутью святынь. Мне кажется то, что она всех прекрасней, за кожицей губ сладость дюжины дынь, под платьем места, что пока неподвластны. В догадках парю, изучая сюжет, портретное сходство с какой-то богиней, развес украшений, кольцо и браслет, и всё полотно утончённой картины. Впервые увиденный стан удивил, а точный синоним богини телесной в себя потихоньку, по нотке влюбил, дополнив меня и создав полновесье. Я полулюбимой нарёк идеал, хотя только час вижу в виде подарка. Осталось вдохнуть ещё, и я пропал! И тотчас парфюм опьянил своим маком...

My first guitar hero was Ace Frehley b/c to my then-6 year old noggin he looked more like a member of the X-Men than anything. Once I got into guitar, however, ten years later, Schenker was THE benchmark of awesomeness! Glad I got to see him twice in the late-80s when there was an MSG as opposed to his "Temple of Rock" schtick he's doing now (tho I did see him once w/ ToR). I was always baffled as to why he never broke big here in guitar-crazy America.
