Michael Schenker - Temple Of Rock: Live In Europe Limited Deluxe Edition
First let me say I was blown away by old good the old boys sounded.
Ex-Scorpions (if you can call them "ex" since the band has not been the same since they left, but I digress as usual) Herman Rarebell on drums and Francis
Buchholz on bass lay down a phenomenal rhythm and bottom end allowing Schenker
to perform his magic. Michael's playing has been extremely inconsistent
over the years, but not here. The sound, performance and track list
are all worthy of 5 stars. The last thing I wanted to mention is the
video/dvd. When Michael plays his solos, you actually see Michael play the
solos....no ADHD, one second view, over-editing.
Yeah a short review,
but if you are a Schenker, UFO, and/or Scorpions fan, this is one of
the biggest no brainers I have ever reviewed. A hard rock must have (at least get the 2 CD Set!). I gotta get one of those Bitchin' Flying V's too!!!
Rating? 9/10
