AWESOME VIDEO CLIPS ! U.F.O. w/t Uli & Michael

Re: AWESOME VIDEO CLIPS ! U.F.O. w/t Uli & Michael

All rudeness aside, sorry if I offended anyone, I have the Strangers in the Night CD also. Just the Lights Out solo is worth it. But I have to say that I like the studio version of Rock Bottom much better than the live one. I was a big fan of UFO in my teen years-remember 8 tracks-had a few of theirs.

Or the other way around! :)

Pierre...try UFO "Strangers in the Night" and Scorpions' "Tokyo Tapes." Both are live. I only have one of the Scorp's studio albums with Uli so someone else might be able to help there.

Pierre...you can only play a guitar like that if you dress like that. :)

Edit...you beat me to it, Jeff!
80s by spirit, 60s by clothes?

Wait...not even 60s. More like a mix of the 20th century 60s and the 13th century 60s. And with some 25th century 60s.

I'll show to you I can play it AND be myself! :O
Thanks for the tips guys. Bed time now, tomorrow = soundclips day (custom vs miracle man vs fullshred) so I shall keep busy :) C ya'all!

And he bears a striking resemblance to Jeff Pilson! Especially in dimly lit hallways! :laugh2: :laugh2:

Well, what can I say? I'm sure he appreciated being thanked for all the music over the years. I'm not sure what music that was, but whatever it was I am most grateful for it.

Michael Schenker's rhytm playing is dead on but I think he has forgotten how to solo. He choked on Rock Bottom!!!! His signature song! If you listen to Strangers In The Night paul raymond did a better job then on keyboards, than Michael does now! It was a trip to hear Uli play that song! Kind of funny Uli replaces Michael in the scorpions, Michael Replaces Uli, and Mathias Replaces Michael. Maybe they should have just replaced Rudoplh instead?

Pete Way was a great bassist. He played a unique lead bass style and the band followed him. That clip doesn't do him justice.

Rock Bottom! Not exactly a fashion statement but who cares? Actually Mogg still looks pretty good. That was some serious guitar jamming/dualing.. Schenker is one of my main influences.. love the sound of those cranked Marshalls on the stage.

Stranger in the Night!

After I first heard strangers, I went back and bought some of the studio albums. Strangers sounds much better!

As for that video, Michael's solo was kinda sad. Uli owned him for most of that night. Michael seemed like he wasn't warmed up until the end of the solo, and then he started blazing. But Michael's first half was meh.

Speaking of UFO, I just managed to find a copy of the "Too Hot to Handle" DVD...it's got clips of them from various points in their career. There's some incredible Schenker footage, and the Chapman stuff is good, too. There's even a goofy "Kajuko" video, they look hilarious.

I couldn't resist a sale and picked up the new live CD "Showtime" too. It sounds pretty darn good. Vinnie would be my third choice after Schenker and Chapman but it's still worth the thirteen bucks. I might have to spring for the DVD as well.

Ping, I think I read somewhere that it was cancelled due to some legal issue with his ex-wife or something.

He's lost his friggin mind..

I thought the previous batch of emails he posted was bad...these take the cake.

Dean most likely will dump him in the near future...

I'll stick to the guy I knew from 1984 and previous...the alcohol addicted and pill to cure his addiction-addicted virtuoso guitar player.

Pete Way is no polesmoker, he is far to screwy for that, I think he is only into aliens and chihuahuas these days.

Re: AWESOME VIDEO CLIPS ! U.F.O. w/t Uli & Michael

Man oh man read the postings on his site...how sad. When his daughter (coherced or not) says "daddy are we going to lose our house again" (or something very similar) I almost laughted then I almost cried. I would not be suprised to find Schenker....well I don't even want to voice such thoughts. Just sad and really reading this its almost like who cares bout his guitar he needs serious help possibly from the German government...
 
Re: AWESOME VIDEO CLIPS ! U.F.O. w/t Uli & Michael

Uli plays so good and his tone is great!! Michael´s playing was kinda boring imho.
 
Re: AWESOME VIDEO CLIPS ! U.F.O. w/t Uli & Michael

welcome to Michael Schenker post 1986....:yell:

He just simply lost it playing-wise...first McCauley Schenker Group album (1987) had a few moments of brilliance...but....he just lost it.

its so sad...cos in his prime...he was the EVH/RR/SRV whatever of everywhere else in the world but North America.....
