what makes Michael Schenker so unique is his phrasing on the chords he emphasizes certain notes and then he throws in a crunchy rhythm then he blazes on a shredding lead. He is all over the place on the guitar yet he maintains a smooth fluid sound that's very precise. As far as I am concerned he is in a class by himself and really doesn't have anyone who can compare to his unique style of guitar playing.
I couldn’t have said it better myself. Phenomenal axeman!
The mad axeman!!!
SUPERBLY SAID MATE
I can´t say ....... when I was a teenager I bought the LP "UFO - strangers in the night ........" nothing more to say about his style ....
The BEST 💥
The magic combination - Michael Schenker and Cozy Powell. What a sound.
jeddak yes. Love Cozy
And Gary. He's in top form here too!
COZY WAS A BAD ASS
Magical combinations: Cozy with Jeff Beck and Ritchie Blackmore
@SabuPtolemy Yep totally over rated just like Ginger Baker , loads better drummers about at that time like Bill Ward , Ian Paice , Brian Downey , Neil Peart ........
RIP Cozy and Paul Raymond. What a band!!!
MSG at their best! Their first 2 albums with Gary Barden singing were absolute classic. Cozy Powell and his powerhouse drumming, and the great Michael Schenker, what a line up!!! A very overlooked band by rock radio. I love them!
Should've been huge … the personal in this band are incredible, should've been a huge success - I mean - they did well, but didn't get anywhere near as huge as you'd expect.
They just played zztop and wham, mike Jackson, GO GOS, dURAN DURAN? every day, radio sucked in N.Y back then, I just could not understand.
The playing was decent, particularly from Michael, but the songs are awful. I was never that impressed with Barden either to be honest, he sounds a bit bar band at times.
@@donharrold1375 your fucking high or just stupid
@@donharrold1375 so you are a WHAM fan?? Schenker plays a flying V like nobody else....and Barden's voice is what all rock bands want for a front man.....
Herzlichen Glückwunsch Wolf Schütter und viel Spaß mit dem Kassettenrecorder. Funktioniert der noch ?
I've been a Shenker fan since the UFO DAYS and COZY POWELL is one of my biggest influence as a drummer! what makes Michael so fuckin great and unique is his sense of melody! In my humble drum bashing opinion 😁✌️
Great show. Easily MSG’s best lineup featuring Cozy Powell, Michael Schenker, Paul Raymond, Chris Glen and Gary Barden🤘😎
Absolutely !!!!!!
Paul Raymond must have been the most underrated band member of any band
Too little appreciation/love for this guy
Played lefty without inverting the strings. Very noteworthy
@@robertwhitcomb6105 Really?
Is that a hammond organ he s
playig too. It s the biz.!
Takes me back to being a spotty 13 year old...So in love with the music I had discovered. Now 54...and this music still beats in my heart. No spots now...thankfully. 👍
Same age and yes.
I'm 58 and discovered him through his first solo album when I was around 16-17and then bought every album Schenker was on. He still is the biggest influence on me.
Yeah same. No spots but piles and a fat gut 😀
RIP Paul Raymond who died yesterday
that's sad..UFO was my favorite metal / hard rock band in the 70's and 80's. I got to see them several times and actually work very closely with them for an entire day on a professional level. It was an unforgettable day of my life in a theatre in Wheeling West Virginia.
R.I.P
@Oh! Mama! Glad he joined MSG tho
and since then we've added Pete Way and Paul Chapman sigh....
ua-cam.com/video/P_RX-VlmPnQ/v-deo.html Honestly when Paul Raymond came in the band. And they recorded lights out, and obsession. The band was in a completely different mindset, as well as the production which was done extremely well. I feel including the live album strangers in the night. Were some of their best albums hands-down. It’s a shame that Michael Shanker and Phil Moog!! Had such a falling out over a fight. Can you imagine if that never happened, and they went on to record the next album with that lineup? Tremendously Awesome
Always thought of these guys as a
Metal version of UFO.....and yes
Paul Raymond my vote for Rock n Roll most valuable player award lol
Those first four MSG albums had some insane guitar playing. Long Live Michael Schenker.
I didn't realize til recently that Cozy Powell played drums in so many different bands. Very versatile drummer for sure. 👍
It's almost unbelievable Schenker never used his pinkie on his right hand and still was able to be play those runs at lightening speed.
One thing about UA-cam giving you the chance to see so many amazing musicians playing live is...well, it lets you see them playing live, and I'm always amazed at how *effortless* Cozy Powell's playing was. He's always murdering his drum kit and making this big noise and he's just doing it effortlessly. In my personal lists of drummers, the only one who managed the same thing better was John Bonham.
that first MSG album is the best! I was in 11th grade when it came out and was hooked ever since.
This concert took place in Hamburg after they had toured America and opened for Molly Hatchet. The band is tight, Barden's voice is at it's peak, and Schenker at his best. This is one of MSG's and Schenker's best performances. An absolute must-see.
Facts.
For real no doubt on 🔥
What. Barden got worse?
...agree..
Molly Hatchet?
Now THAT....is a mismatch ! :/
Michael has one of the sweetest guitar tones...that midrange tone with the help of a wah-pedal set to a single spot about halfway through ''locked and cocked'' lol and of course the Gibson Flying V and Marshal amp just made Rock N' Roll magic together in the 80's. About to turn 65 years old and still Rockin' the fuck out! God bless ...
Don't forget the echo plex
@@badmonkey2222 Didn't forget anything. MS core sound came from a Gibson Flying V, a Marshall amp along with a simple delay, chorus and wah-wah pedal. That’s it. Now uses Dean custom guitars.
@@sunlion8866i know what his core sound came from is petty much what you said but you left out a very big part. I'm a professional guitarist been playing over 30 years I've met Michael and I actually held that Gibson V THE V the white one he showed me how he repaired the headstock multiple times with drumsticks but it was so good you could hardly tell, held It in my hands in 1991, but and you're right he used all that, and he did not use a simple delay, its called an Echoplex, its a tape delay they don't make them anymore and there hard to get parts for but he still uses it to this day, that's one of the keys to his sound. George Lynch and Eric Johnson use it also.
@@badmonkey2222 Will go with what Micheal says in his interviews. That's been his main guitar set-up for years. Going all the way back to the early eighties. Look it up.
@@sunlion8866 did fucking look it up I've talked to him my selfl and he says in just about every interview that he uses an Echoplex dumbass you can look it up ... And you can now stop talking to me because you do not know what you're talking about. And he's use the Echoplex since the 70s not the 80s and he still uses it today you look it up I don't have to i know what the fuck I'm talking about. I told that you had pretty much his whole setup correct and he does use a couple of types of boss delay pedals but that echoplex is his secret weapon, just believe what you want to believe.
Michael and Cozy were fantastic.
Yes they were 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
They were, but Michael and Simon were even better.
It looks like there are 54 people who apparently wouldn't know rock and roll if it slapped them in the face with a black and white flying v.
That number just increased to 74. Luckily Schenker immortlized the Flying V which will live on long past he's gone. That does not apply to those 74.
84 now 🤷♂️
Wow Cozy was one of the greatest drummers of that era, him and Schenker were a force of nature. Im so thankful I grew up to hard rock in its golden era
Listem to the master. Of the game. Its so easy for michael melodic. Metal icon. Tuetonic terror. Michael until next time. In. N y. C. Saw. U. Twice this year. U just get better n better. How is that pisdible. He is sober. N on a mission. People who dont know schenker im sorry. Thats like never gettin layed. What. Micheal. Is untouchable
Awesome stuff. One of the tightest bands in the early 80s. Easy to forget just how good Michael Schenker was (and is). Sadly not all these guys are with us anymore.
🎸🙋♀️💖Michael is still my fav guitarist! Great concert. Thx for posting.
RIP Cozy Powell.
Ich habe dieses Konzert 1981 gesehen und fand es gut.
Michael Schenker, war eine Band der 80er Jahre und eine der großen Hartrock Bands.
Ihr Sound und Stil, zeichnet sich dadurch aus, aus abwechslungsreichem melodischem Hartrock Stil, der 80er Jahre, der vom Synthesiser und Keyboard geprägt und bestimmt war.
Diese Band, war und ist eine Mischung aus UFO und Scorpions, die von Schenker, aber auch von musikalischen eigenen individuellen Komposition, entscheident mitgeprägt wurde.
Ihr abwechslungsreicher melodischer Hartrock, mit harten Gitarreneinlagen, ist genau das richtige für Fans, dieses Musikstils. Nicht zu hart und nicht zu melodisch. Genau ausgeglichen.
Auch bei Schenker, spielten einige bekannte Musiker, die vorher, bei großen Bands spielten. Cozy Powel, Gram Bonet, Doogie White, aus der jüngeren ehemaligen Besetzung von Rainbow, von 1995 bis 1997. Und Paul Raimond, von UFO.
Vor 5 Jahren, produzierte, Schenker, ein Album, wo all diese ehemaligen Musiker wieder zusammen kammen, außer Cozy Powel, der leider viel zu früh, bei einem Autounfall 1998,ums Leben kam.
Diese Band, gibt es immer
noch und Sie hat Ihren musikalischen Charakter und Sound und Stil bewahrt und behalten.
great performance, sorry for Paul loss, and Cozy, they were both great musicians
TOSS THE FLYING V. MY DEUCHLAND BRTHERS
Phenomenal guitar playing from Schenker. Pure class from the Rhinelands best.
By the way, did Michael ever look cooler than during this period?
ROD Rosi I saw that tour 1987 I believe just fucking incredible it will never happen again a moment in time for those who were there to remember
Agree : jeans,sneakers, black leather jacket and short hair, so different from just a couple of years earlier with Ufo or Scorpions with long permed hair tight spandex pants and high knee boots. Michael's hairlook and outfits have always been spot on until mid 90's.
Yeap. Back then: ua-cam.com/video/-16KJkJA5Bo/v-deo.html
Just stumbled across this and damn what a find. Seventies and Eighties had the best music and musicianship. No auto tune or protools or computerized shit, a guy plugged into some Marshall’s kicking ass.
I am almost fifty-eight years old and I have been listening to Michael Schenker since I was about 18 years old and I do not get tired of this music
Ditto, ditto and ditto.
ua-cam.com/video/P_RX-VlmPnQ/v-deo.html
55 here dude and exactly the same these years were incredible ...and these musicians here were just , for me, the best band
he ever had as the MSG band
Not only music has changed for worse since then. Being 58 as well, I was able to see many of the best groups live.
@@siegmarlange5470 yeah so happy being born these middle 60s cause we did and seen so many crazy things people wouldnt be able to believe or understand SO FAR !
Take care brother
The classic line-up. This is what I think of when I think of MSG. Had the pleasure of seeing them twice in this era. One of those was standing room only general admission in San Antonio, Tx. I was second row and we were packed in like sardines. Schenker played every single lead note for note just like the albums. It was beyond belief. I was floored forever. One of the greatest musical experiences I've ever had.
Yes sir, I was at that concert also. He was awesome...
Daddy’s Showcase of the Stars
on Fred Rd
GodsTruthMinistries - Schenker never plays a solo exactly the same. The main melodies are the same, but he has stated over his entire career that he makes most of it up on the fly, otherwise he’d die of boredom. I’ve seen him three nights in a row a few times and it’s his improvisational skills that make him such an exciting player on stage.
@@henrysanchez8937 awesome
Cozy Powell plays the drum in the traditional style. The way that Buddy Rich teaches so that you have more versatility.
LONG LIVE COZY POWELL! And the Michael Schenker band!
RIP Cozy Powell. RIP.
We were spoilt back then all this talent fresh new authentic energy of schenker Powell Raymond glen and barden music now just don't do it for me give me these guys everytime....
Schenker rules
Thanks a lot for sharing this early footage of one of the greatest guitar players of the 70's and 80's, when he was in his absolute prime, after releasing the seminal debut album!
Gary‘s great too!
The whole Band on their highs, great performance!
That good and doesn't even use his little finger!
Gary Moore did not use it often too
nowhere near Phil Mogg.......... never underestimate the value of a real legendary voice......
The classic MSG line up. It doesn't get any better than this.
Bob Nixon I wish Gary Barden sang on Assault Attack.
That rhythm section is something to behold!
Rip Cozy Powell [I'm a fan], Mr. Paul Martin Raymond [UFO, MSG] and the voice of Gary Barden in the band, incredible show! [Rodolfo Doddy - DRUMMER]
This gig fu**in' kicks ass - MSG really at it's best. Michael truly was and of course still is one of the world's most talented guitar heroes.
its best
I was there. During “Rock Bottom” I even see myself for a second in the video. That was an amazing concert
Finally saw Schenker for the first time last year. After listening to him for years. It just doesn't compare to seeing him live. Truly a master. Amazing!!!
OMG this video kicks ass! The band is amazing and the filming and sound for that era are great. The camera crew understands how to film a rock band and superstar guitarist. Cozy rules.
Totally. Unbelievable. Greatness. N. Cozy. N paul. Raymond. R both. Great. R i p. Cozy. Powell. Played. With. All top rate. Bands rainbow. Gary moore. Msg. Just for. Starters
Gary seems to be fighting to not blow out his vocal chords.
Missing a few of the higher range notes that are not screamed.
And Cozy Powell left a little bit of the whole funky aspect out of Feels Like a Good Thing that Simon Phillips included on the original studio version.
More stomp and swagger on the studio version.
This feels rushed in a few too many places.
He seems to be a Bad Singer
Fair points😆
After dealing with Phil Mogg, Schenker wanted an unknown pub singer he could lord it over.
Cozy was more of a basher and not a real groove-oriented drummer. Love Coze, but Simon is in a different league altogether.
Saw MSG on the North American leg of this tour. In Vancouver at the UBC Sub Ballroom. Local punk band DOA opened for them. They got booed off the stage by 500 aspiring guitar players who where there to see the MASTER! Amazing show!
sounds like a dick move to boo a small local punk band off the stage
@@LoneShot95 no.
Yeah, he is still the master!!!!, but 1981 in this Rockpalastnight........
Nobody will be better...... never!!
@@LoneShot95 LFC &. BVB
I dont know if they can get any more reverb on that guys Mic. Schenker is just awesome! Cozy Powell!
delay and some reverb. Delay is a very effective tool if it's times properly.
完成度の高さではsecond albumが最高傑作なんじゃないんでしょうか‼️
RIP Cozy. The most powerful and unique hard rock drummer!
Cozy Powell "R.i.p" 🎵🎼🎶😎👊
Paul Raymond "R.i.p"🎸🎹🎵🎼🎶😎👊
The Real "Michael Schenker Group"🎸😎👊
👍🤝👌🍷🍾🍷🍾🇺🇦 .
paul raymond ex UFO on guitar and keys and backing vocals
RIP!! ;-(
THE MASTER MUSICIAN
Rip Paul
Yep. So strong!
Ex -UFO and then returned. Just glad I caught him in Belfast on the last orders tour before he passed , very tragic news as it had only been a week or two following the concert. Very sad and a massively underrated talent.
"Lost Horizons"...🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
Michael is o
Michael is one of the best, but Cozy is the best! Barden I always felt was weak.
Saw this line up Birmingham odeon in 81 or 82 . I was front row and managed to shake hands with both Gary and Chris that night. Michael seemed a bit out of it that night but still a great gig. Classic line up. Great memories. 🤘🎸
Hey, I was at that gig, loved it. I think it wasn't too long after John Bonham died, I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure it was around that time.
Haha🤣🤣 wtf! The Mischa Schenker Group!!
Chris Glenn🥃🥃🥃
I seriously don’t know what I did on Jan 24 1981 - I was in Hamburg, but I wasn’t at this amazing concert... WHY ? ? ? ?
I should ask my teenage self.... :-)
Big Miss !!
😩🤷🏽♂️
This is my favorite line up for MSG. The Barden era has better songs, and Michael never looked or sounded better than he did with this line up!
Schenker is outstanding! But Barden is out of tune a little to much.
Gary Barden in his prime here!
Cozy has to be one of the most underrated drummers ever! As Robert said, a "powerhouse", but also so precise with incredible cymbal work.
Michael Schenker & Cozy Powell !
Anybody else get the feeling that Schenker was just pleased to be out of UFO, and playing these innovative creations, and just loving every minute of it?
Hang on UFO were brilliant too I wouldn’t knock them ok moog et al fell out with Michael but everyone fell out with Michael even his brother 😂
@@michaelblythe6525 That's because he realized Rudolph had been using him for decades .. If Michael was really that bad .. he wouldn't still be friends with Gary Barden , and Chris Glenn , from this lineup . 30 plus years later
Recently I read an article where Michael Schenker was saying that when he had joined Scorpions for The Lonesome Crow album he had saved the band from extinction because they had no lead guitar player and he stayed until Ulrich Roth aka Uli Jon Roth joined. When he joined UFO they weren't going anywhere and again he saved another band and they became one of the biggest bands in the world until he left them. Judas Priest soon after that asked him if he would consider joining them. He turned the offer down. He didn't want to be a member of somebody else's band one more time. His goal was to have a band of his own with his name, hence MSG
Michael Schenker the god of Guitar Rock!!!!!!! EXCELLENT !!!!!!!!!
Fucking great man
C0ZY WAS BEST WITH. RITCHIE
Gary Barden fantastic
これは初めて見ました。
これは当時発売されていたんでしょうかね。貴重なビデオありがとうございます。サンキューサンキュー‼️
Imagine if Michael used his pinky? Well actually then he just might not sound like the unique player he is, but it just amazes me when players don't use all their fingers.
Tight, tight, tight! Gary’s even hitting the high notes!! 🤘🏻
Thanks for sharing.,
Sehr gute Performance von allen. Barden war schon großartig.
Gary's voice is great, for Gary. Can't hold a candle to Phil's.
I still remember listening to the first schenker album thinking what a killer sound and cry for the nations is timeless!
the outro solo in that song is still one of my all time favorites.
I saw this exact line up opening for Cheap Trick here in Seattle, '81.
Did they blow Cheap Trick off the stage?
I met Gary once, nice guy.
Thanks sooo much for sharing this!!! Been a fan since he was in Scorpions!

I remember buying this MSG album when it came out and lovin' it , and it's still cool.with Gary Barden vocals,Simon Philips drums,Mo Foster bass,Don Airey keyboard, & Micheal Schenker guitar on the album , what a great lineup.then had Cozy,& Paul live on drums,& bass respectivly. And the 2nd album Assult Attack was also fantastic , with Graham Bonnet's great vocals, & fantastic drummer Ted McKenna, Chris Glenn bass, Tommy Eyre keyboard ,& of course Schenker on guitar, to me these two albums rank up with the best music of that early 80's hard rock-metal era ,along with JudasPreist, Rainbow, Scorpions, IronMaiden, BlackSabbath, & all the others that made REAL music (not noise) with heavy riffs and great melodies. I feel sorry for kids now,all they have to listen to is repititious lame Hip Hop ,and boring Pop with no feeling. it's a lot of over hyped,pre procsessed,,assembly line,weak crap not played by real musicians (only a bunch of button pressers & DJ's...good lord !) as people get dumber so does the arts. So i say let's salute the real artists & keep rockin' to this killer music forever!!! Sincerely Bob Gourley
@@tonygourley4896 Assault Attack was the third album mate .
I love the 1981 MSG. Gary Barden, Chris Glenn, Paul Raymond, and Cozy Powell all play their best to worship Michael Schenker as a god and stand out as an individual presence in the group.
I highly doubt any of them worshipped Schenker. What an asinine thing to say.
Worship isn't the right word, they were all talented musicians in their own right, but they definitely respected Michael's musicianship.
Rockpakast legendary shows down the years all the top acts played live Bowie Big Country Simple Minds U2 REM The Who Bob Marley Thin Lizzy The Smiths The Police Van Morrison Dire Straits Linda Ronstadt ELO INXS etc etc
I saw them in 1984 (I think ?) opening for Iron Maiden in Paris (Powerslave tour) MSG + Maiden=concert of the century.
Moi j'ai ete voir Renaud pour l'inauguration du Zenith au tout debut de 84' avant de partir pour les USA. J'aurrais bien voulu voir MSG+Maiden ca c'est sure !
@@cybrunel1016 J'avais vu Renaud au Zénith aussi. L'année de la tournée mistral gagnant
I saw Maiden in Germany in 1984 for Powerslave and Motley Crue opened for them. Must have done opening bands by committee that year.
November 1983, saw the show in Lyon!
It was in 1983 and it was the world piece tour of IM
Excluding musicians , Michael Schenker, Ronnie Montrose and Frank Marino are the top 3 most underappreciated guitarist in Rock n Roll.
Is there a video of this line up....Doing ROCK BOTTOM...!?! Would Love to see it especially w/ COZY POWELL on Drums...!!! Please let me know...!!! Thanks...USA...2020...Saw whats left of UFO in February in Florida...(No Micheal) but brought back alot of Good memories...!!! (RIP) COZY...!!!
Of course there is, this is not the complete concert, some songs are missing including a blistering performance of Rock bottom! Check this link, the same gig, a lower video quality but the complete setlist 👍
ua-cam.com/video/9jPL6XGBRc8/v-deo.html
Barden almost reminds me of a more-talented Kevin DuBrow. Michael deserved better.
Must have been a bass player who mixed this...
Good but MS best w UFO. So close to being a super group
Did they cut some music out for this show? The keyboards at the end of Lost Horizons sounded like they were segueing into Doctor Doctor. 🤔
Cozy Powell
The Great Cozy Powell !!
what about colin flooks
Almost as good as "One night at Budokan" :)
Michael、Gothand🎸✴🇩🇪
EVERY BONHNHOFF. PLASTERD WITH SCORPIONS. ANIMAL MAGNITISM 78 ROCK ON SCHIENKER. BROS
i cant believe it was 40 years ago, time fly so fast OMG
Cozy Powell Cry For The Nations🤟
Remember seeing MSG few time in Paris during the 80's they were great gigs !
Schenker is still magnificent ✌
In a band with ms Powell and Raymond who can tell the bass player? But I really love Chris Glenn's playing.
There a great band MS put great people together and made something special
