I am now over 60, and I see Michael Schenker as the greatest guitarist I have ever heard. So clear and perfect.

I agree bud. I am 65 now and disabled. Pretty much homebound. But at 46 I bought a ticket after writing Uli Jon Roth who was coming to the states for the first time in 19 YEARS. I was there then. He opened for Michael and Holy....Spirit man he was phenomenal. No other guys but a drummer and a keyboard player and programs so there was nothing to lay back on. And Michael and band were great. But Uli and Michael?!? It was a toss up. But I saw Michael with UFO in 75 and 95 on their reunion. Pshaw! I saw Michael in different incarnations of MSG 4 other times before 2004 my last gig ever. What a way to go out. Uli Jon Roth and Michael Schenker closing. But Michael has produced continually where Uli, regrettably not so much. Michael has adjusted with his R-arm in a sling. You'd be shocked, (I was) by how big Uli's wrists are. Both could care less about modern music and have been plugged into their muse(s) from the beginning and I think that's what makes them so great. But, I think there must've been something radioactive in the water left over in Germany from the war as they were born 30 miles away from each other and less than one month too. What a privilege to have been alive during their reigns. Rock on.

Saw UFO in July 78… Schenker and the whole band were phenomenal. Still got it today. Bands of today cant hold a candle to this!

Ronnie's voice is incredible again.

Sometimes i am often disappointed with poor performance of old bands but MSG maintains his amazing performance ability regardless of his age!! Still loving you Mike! From your old big fan ! Here in Korea!

Michael still has it going. What a great guitar player!

"Ranks up there with Eddie..." You must really not be too awfully aware of Michael's history. And the amount of original music he's been making for over fifty years. Over fifty-five years; he was seventeen when he joined UFO. Lights Out, Force It, Lovedrive, Strangers In The Night, Phenomenon, the acoustic Thank You series... Before the Stones got Ronnie Wood; Andrew Loog-Oldham called Michael's manager to see if he wanted the job, not an audition, but would he please consider joining when Mick Taylor left(?) Michael's manager told Andrew not to even waste his time or money. Before Eddie, Yngwie, Lynch, di Martini, McCalpine, Becker, and the dozens of other sweep-dopes & sweep- demons ..... Michael Schenker was filling the sheds and stadiums of America and Europe along with Jimmy Page, Brian May, Tony Iommi, Mick Ralphs, Ritchie Blackmore (Oh yes, Deep Purple wanted Michael as well.) Pete Townsend, Mick Ronson, Phil Lynott/ Scott Gorham/ Brian Robertson, Billy Gibbons, Angus & Malcom Young, Rick Neilson, Alex Lifeson, Buck Dharma, etc... Michael hasn't an ounce of fat on him. He looks exactly like he did in 1975. When you hear about Michael Schenker, you don't have to hear about his Lamborghini's and how Claudio gave him Sammy fckng Haggard's phone number. Or his Weight Loss Diet Corporation wife... (Michael did kind of lose it a few years back about his rift with Rudolph.) You don't have to read about Schlitz Malt Liquor, Heineken, or cocaine... PURE MUSIC. He's just pure music.

I love the old school wall of Marshalls on the backline.

Since 1979 I really like Michael Schenker until now. His guitar sound is unique. Very memorable Don't have to be the fastest, doesn't have to be the most complicated or difficult, but it's the crisp, heartfelt and beautiful guitar sound that represents The Michael Schenker guitar.

One of my original guitar hero's. UFO live strangers in the night was 4 sides of inspiration for a young guitarist. I would lay down on my bed with my head between my stereo speakers and visualize the concerts and how to play like Mike. It works. Try it.
