5.0 out of 5 stars these two albums together make one almost perfect cd, October 8, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Michael Schenker Group / MSG (Audio CD)

after michael schenker left ufo i was extremely excited to here that he was putting together another group. when the first album came out it was everything i expected from him and more. the songs were moodier than what i was used to hearing him play but the guitar was wicked as always!the band was great as were the songs although i thought roger glover's production was a little weak but that wasn't stopping me from enjoying songs like "looking out from nowhere", "lost horizons",and "feels like a good thing" and then when MSG came out about a year later that was every bit as good song wise and the addition of cozy powell on drums and paul raymond on keyboards and guitar just made it a supergroup. the songs aresome of the most powerful hard rock ever played, just listen to "but i want more" or "looking for love". the dynamics are seldom matched on any other record. putting these two albums together on one cd is a dream come true for me or any schenker fan!

5.0 out of 5 stars msg's breakout album, January 5, 2003

This review is from: Mcauley/Schenker (Audio CD)

the enigmatic, but profoundly talented michael schenker puts it all out on the line for his faithful following on this masterpiece. Previous releases always seemed to lack that one little ingredient that makes an interesting meal outstanding.
Having followed michaels career from 1972 through today, and purchasing everything our sorry record outlets carry, i found this nugget tucked away ,and hurried home brushing it off and finding the gold pressed into this plastic.
Michaels patient testing of various rock throats ,and co-writing talents kept his success on a virtual roller coaster.
He and Robin McAuley hit the mark by giving us one of those rare albums where every song is a great song.From the opening riffs of 'EVE', you are transported back to the great power playing and melodic stylings that makes him one of the greatest guitar players in metal history,and the misunderstanding as to why he hasn't become a household name.
this is the record that spawned the great radio hit "when i'm gone",this is one of those "1" time listen and love songs,with its melodic hooks,and searing vocals which sing out success.
"we believe in love " is another fabulously hooky "1" time listen song.whatever Michael chooses to do in his private life is his business,we don't need to completely understand the man,we know what he can do ,and how well he does it.
i'm afraid of running short on words,but as a music audiophile, or a rock guitarist who is on the fence about michael,run tommorow to your fave record store and pick up a copy of this album,you will be happy with what blasts from your speakers.

THANX FOR THE LISTEN

5.0 out of 5 stars Schenker defines rock guitar!, January 11, 2000

This review is from: The Michael Schenker Group / MSG (Audio CD)

The Michael Schenker Group and the follow up MSG are classic Schenker. These two discs' worth of music contain solo's that are so unique, so inventive, it boggles the mind. Every guitarist should own these recordings. Guitarist after guitarist will site Michael as being a major influence. Tracks like "on and on" and "attack of the mad axeman" have such authority, passion, and blistering speed, it is hard to imagine that someone is that familiar with their instrument. If you've never heard Michael before, he is not like Yngvie Malmstein where he's one measure into the solo and you've heard every trick he has got! Michael crafts his solo's like mini compositions. Simply awesome. On these recordings, he had great players, the songs are fairly standard rock compositions (a la Rainbow, UFO), but the guitar work will leave you shaking your head in wonder. If you need new inspiration for your playing, or you've just accepted the line that Eddie Van Halen is the end-all, be-all inguitar playing, pick up this collection from Amazon and listen to a guy that was blowing minds while Van Halen was still in junior high school!
