Biography
It is characterized by modern-sounding hard rock with many extended solo periods in songs allowing Schenker to exhibit his talent. Schenker is a German guitarist, famous for his half-black, half-white Gibson Flying V guitar.
1980 to 1981
The MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP is centred around the extreme guitar talents of ex-UFO and SCORPIONS guitarist MICHAEL SCHENKER, born in Sarstedt on January 10th 1955. The German axeman is renowned for his fluid, melodic and distinctive of playing as well as his trademark black and white Gibson flying V guitar. Unfortunately, this musical genius is tempered with a reputation for disappearing acts mid tour (this having happened during spells with UFO on numerous occasions) and various mood swings attributed to substance abuse and the wayward character of genius.
Having walked out on UFO where, unarguably, Schenker had made his name, an abortive attempt at a band with the MONTROSE rhythm section of drummer Denny Carmassi and bassist Bill Church led to nothing. Schenker was also invited to audition for AEROSMITH to fill Joe Perry’s shoes but one studio meeting between the two parties was as far as that proposed union got.

Anytime on top? youve got to be kidding. Good song, but not even close to what Michael can really do. Into the Arena or Captain Nemo should be 1.

Hm, most of the time it seem to be like that indeed. Haven't heard the album yet, bit curious though... so I will will give the album a shot for sure. Just hoping myself that he will find a suitable singer even more, one who has got a bit more power and control over his voice.

The new compilation album "By Invitation Only" >> It's the end when an artist starts to play covers. (The whole album contains cover songs.) It means he run out of self ideas. I'm very sorry for it.
