MSG/UFO [ SCHENKER RANDOM SOLOS COMPILATION, PART V ] LIVE

[@emgex]

Love these damn melodic solos. Its so catchy. He is for sure the embodiment of the Arena / Melodic Rock

[@petemcelhaney9205]

I've said it once and I'll say until cold and still, the man doesn't waste a single note...the progressive power that he wields is is enormous and he can transition like nobody I've ever seen...genius

[@megclifton6692]

All with 3 fingers lol

[@martinmueller5328]

He’s das besten fur immer..Nobody will ever share his Virtuoso

[@doulos737]

​​@@megclifton6692Yes, good observation, I also have been noticing that. In my teens, when first learning how to play guitar, I remember distinctly thinking to myself that I better start using my pinky if I ever wanted to be a good lead player, yet he doesn't seem to use his, and yet he plays so much better than me. Was I hoodwinked? Bamboozled? Honky tonked?...🤔😯😄

[@vultureculture4677]

Born raised and brought up on UFO and Michael Schenker!! By far one of the most tasteful, creative, entertaining and badass gunslingers of our time.

[@The67flyingV]

Schenker had the licks, he had the right flying V's, the tone was perfect and he had the hair to go along with all of that, today he doesn't have all the hair, but he is playing better then he ever has before and is showing some road scars and it just adds more character to the best guitarist to ever exist. Long live the Legend, can't wait to see this wizard again.

[@robertkelsoe6772]

He is one of the best players that has ever been.

[@MrMalambing]

I second that my man

[@briantroxel3322]

My favorite guitar player

[@beornthebear.8220]

I love Schenker's riffs and melody.

[@S.A.L.Z.D]

UFO is one of the most influential rock bands ..

[@davidbellamy3643]

Schenker makes his guitar sing; it's that simple [or complex]. Many guitarists are as skillful but with Schenker it is a lot like when you listen to great vocalists; you sort of join in, hum along and got lost in the song but without any real understanding of how incredibly difficult what they are doing really is.

[@reducecotwo]

Wasn't there a Scorpions/UFO concert where one band opened for the other and Michael Schenker played lead guitar in both bands at the same concert because one of the leads couldn't make it? 😎 (Ring any bells anyone) 💬😎

[@user-kt5jf1st3x]

Как же прекрасно он звучит! ! Не устаю слушать его соло! ❤

[@michaeldean7220]

That unmistakable tone is just a thing of beauty!

[@50000metalwatts]

I'm listening to every subgenre of rock and metal music. Yet, I believe that Ritchie Blackmore and Michael Schenker will be the 2 best guitarists forever

[@danzemacabre8899]

Wow, Randy Rhoads, Dave Murray, Denner and Sherman , these are my faves, they owe a lot to this guy, people really seem to forget his name when speaking of most influential, he is certainly in that list.

[@leomessi7058]

Rhoads*

[@grazyhorse2636]

Michael Schenker is a Guitar-God ???Yes !!!!!!

[@barroncrist5779]

Nice compilation of Michael Schenker's solos. Amazing technique.

[@morganash88]

That UFO tone is great! and so unmistakably Michael Schenker. There are many amazing guitarists, but only a handful who stand above the crowd as a Genius or legend - MS is both

[@ronaldp4]

I totally agree!

[@capitaokirk111]

You are crazy, man.

[@allandnothing5987]

Stfu amateur..he's very average and boring

[@morganash88]

@@allandnothing5987 Well of course he's not in your league as a guitarist - but who is?

[@danzemacabre8899]

You can see where Steve Harris got his influence as far as wardrobe (and playing of course) goes with a look at Pete Way in the 2nd clip.

[@bobpugliese4428]

I was fortunate and actually took 2 guitar lessons from him in sf valley. Unfortunately he was in financial trouble at the time from his divorce. Didnt learn a lot but watching him play was amazing. The difficult thing for me was that he didnt use his pinky and the language barrier. I think i paid 100 bucks for half hour lessons. It was a long drive and well beyond my budget. The ironic thing is i ended up taking lessons in my home town at a place called best records from george lynch. Pretty memorable experience. Everyone talks about eddies brown tone. Ill take shenkers strangers in the night all day long

[@saralespaul]

Lol where did host the lessons?

[@bobpugliese4428]

@@saralespaul Rumours abounded that Schenker was now letting a German astrological guru dictate his career as the guitarist underwent rehabilitation to counter his alcohol problem. The guitarist was also earning money by giving celebrity guitar lessons for a whopping $200 an hour fee! It was at one of these lessons that Schenker met his manager to be Bella Piper. I also took a few lessons from George lynch at best records in cerritos ca. It was a money grab for both of them and a huge waste of money

[@antoniozuquete5068]

​@@bobpugliese4428 What year was that? And did you learn more from lynch, since there was no language barrier?

[@2112Tix]

Fast licks and great sound but full of soul which many others don’t have.

[@DirkjeA]

Just love listening to this man, never get tired of it. Thanks again...

[@TomPark1986]

He's like the hard rock/metal version of gilmour.....christ......

[@kathykelly862]

Great love for Michael Schenker grew up listening to his leads everyday Ray Zavoral you were the greatest at playing his music

[@dunemetal67]

He scorches both solos on the "Lights Out" (I think at London's Roundhouse??) here. The audio kind of blows on that recording but Schenker was a on fire back then. One of my all time favs.

[@petemcelhaney9205]

The one segment and I know you know what I'm talking about, Michael is jamming and Phil doesn't know when to break in with vocals, I love it!

[@doulos737]

Yep! And that's a lil' reminder of why he instantly became one of my favorite lead guitarists from the first song that I heard him play, Let it Roll, many years ago. He's fast, clean and melodic, and I love it...🤔😯👍👌🎶👏👏👏

[@gusstsatsakis6479]

Marshal amp, check. Flying V, check. Killer tone, check. Pinky, nope!

[@RMGCBG]

Criminally underrated but not by musicians

[@peteyoung7665]

And people that knows anything about music and great guitar playing)It's about melody and heart&soul which a lot of people don't have or understand."oh look at that guy!His so fast he must be really good"No..that's not what it's about..he.

[@armandochavez3365]

Michael Shenker and KK Downing inspired me to pick up my first guitar and I have never put it down ever. My greatest wish in life is to see both Mr Downing and Mr Shenker putting something together.

[@daveybuckyou5883]

I wish 🤞

[@tedcathey9553]

My favorite Schenker solo/composition

[@southbaylearningacademy3236]

He deserves to be in the top 50 or 100 best guitarists. Simply brilliant

[@nonrevnosnibormetalbeerrev6251]

The top 1 you mean

[@larrythomas7512]

Saw Him at the Ritz ...fired the bass player right B4 the show... Played Remarkable anyway...He has" PEDAL,S" in his "FINGERS"👑 BLUE'S POWER ⚠️😭

[@thesunriseband81]

Saw him at THe Morris Stage circa '78 and he kicked butt, It was like being smitten with the older cool kid in the neighborhood when you were 10 or so. You looked up to him and you just wanted him to acknowledge you.

[@leomessi7058]

Germany's finest. ❤️🔥

[@lekirh7416]

THAT SOLO JUST KILLS DEATH!!!!!!🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹MR MELODIC❤❤🌹✌🤘

[@Sebastian_Mroczek]

That solo from 6:50 sounds what Adrian Smith (Iron Maiden) would typically do in his playing. Clearly understandable why he chose Michael with his Inpirations😄

[@cammontreuil7509]

Schenker. His secret ? Right hand movement. I've been studying for 40 years. To hot to handle. No one can play that song like him.

[@petemcelhaney9205]

His left ain't bad either!

[@michaelkinsey570]

Exactly..I looked to..it's definitely his right hand..I've never seen anyone do up pics like that

[@nonrevnosnibormetalbeerrev6251]

Who is better, that's right not one other guitarist, Michael schenker =genius

[@CharlesGriffith1965]

Schenker had an ego? Well, gee... I wonder why????

No doubt!!!¡!!

Kirk hammet is the only guitarist who has really gave micheal his do... and would just tear it up on his own if e were permitted to do so. with the band that he is in .....shencker has had apart in every band that had a rock blues guitar thang going you can hear it in Randy roads with is accents and decants and any one else who is a fast picker of rock..... and just metal tweaks and hey this was 1975 and before....Try force it or No Heavy Petting...and hey i got to see him with george lynch opening in a 600 seat bar.. holy hell look it up on utube Studio 7 seattle washington around 2011 guys gals what an incredible nite

[@rorycunningham5457]

srrings Please dont mention the worst guitar player of all time Kirk Hammet in the same sentence as Michael Schenker who is one of the best guitarists on the planet period!There no similarities between those two guys except maybe wha pedal and thats it.

[@kevinleonard2368]

@@rorycunningham5457 srrings did not compare KH to MS. Read it again. Don't even go there. srrings is right though, KH praises MS in interviews all the time. Gives props where props are due. And KH is not the worst guitarist of all time...he does stupid shit on the wah pedal too much but he and this little old band he's in called METALLICA, are highly influential!

[@peteyoung7665]

@@rorycunningham5457Yes.And Kirk played with Schenker and played the hole solo in the wrong key and didn't even notice it..ha.He just said"that was great!"and Michael just looked at him like he was crazy😂

[@emgex]

Bro Randy Rhoads , Kirk Hammet and Dave Mustaine said multiple times their main influence was Michael Schenker, they even bought Flying Vs because he played them... Alex Skolnicks main influence is schenker aswell.. He is / was the Ultimative Melodic Rock master in the late 70s and trough the 80s...

[@Smudgie]

That flying V sings! So much better than the Deans he plays.

[@briankehew579]

Possibly in person, he gets a better bigger sound where he stands and hears it. But that doesn't always translate to a recording. I've seen this a lot - bigger drum and gtr sounds don't translate well.
