Most underrated guitarist to ever play a guitar 🎸 this guy singlehanded put U.F.O. On the map !! The first time I saw him play was in 1978 then again in 1979 just before he left UFO !! Michael is a phenomenal player his licks are always fantastic !!
This has got to be one of the most exciting solos ever! I can kind of see what he is doing, lots of legato, hammer-ons, and pull-offs - but so, so damn fluid! Lots of fast 16th notes that just blow you away.
Michael Schenker Group 1981. Saw them perform at the Aragon "BrawlRoom", Chicago , Illinois!!! One of the best shows ever! Forever Rest in Peace Cozy Powell!!!!
This line up for MSG, no doubt the best line up and this song, one of the best songs, even though UFO had many great songs. This solo is really something else. It´s a shame he did not continue in UFO.
Fuck me , it is 2017 and we still do not have a guitarist that even comes close to this . maybe Uli . the next rap star that gets inducted to the rock and roll hall of fame im gonna throw a flying V at them.
You got that right. Last time I saw UFO was in 1996 at The Palace in Hollywood. Every member was just as good if not better then they were in the 70's.
michael schenker is so great, everytime he plays it's exciting to watch cause he's into it and cuts loose and plays how he feels and the musicians interact, so much better than guys that just come out and play it the same way all the time cause they aint got chops and aren't into it
AXEFLYERFV, brother, thanx a lot 4 posting such a gem. Im a great fan of Cozy as well as of the Schenker brothers. thanx once again from the bottom of my heart.
Schenker is in aleague on his own just like Hendrix. One reason why Schenker uses 3 fingers is that along with Hendrix he has one of the longest fingers for guitar player...for Gods sake it's in the bone structure guys...he is gifted and a genius.
Nobody really knows what is real & what is gossip , it starts one way & by the time you hear it on the end of town people have added more to it! only him & his closed people really could say or not ! I just stick to my thing which is his music & his private life is his life, but he's been playing none stop for the past years now all over the world, thnx for tuning in!
I bought 3 LP's(not at once). played them so much( that's how good it was). I literally wore them out while shaking the nails out of the wood siding on the house.
That's what I call a fookin proper Marshall Stack! Brilliant video. We have just enoyed another aural Attack of the Mad AXEMAN. Thank you uploading my friend!
The axe man schenker is the best and he is getting old now but the day he ROCKED an is idol in the metal sky of sound,loud,.....just kick ass...party people,even though I'm personally in recovery...
beatnik is funny and it is about the Lead Guitar "Schenker", the great MSG is in this video a Kraut Rock Metal excellent Jam...if you understand Kraut rock, boy...???
Right on,I started posting some live audio tracks from last year's tour,is what they were gonna sound this time,there's still hope for june/july make up dates but in the meantime like you said,a Schenker weekend anyways(here's plenty,;)!,thnx again for your positive comment!

Best solo ever
Most under rated band of all time. Keep the msg and ufo going. Horns up!!!
The guy was 16yrs old when he wrote this. What a player...
Every Michael schenker performance is note worthy but idk, his 1997 performance of this song in tokyo is still my favorite
Astounding performance! The greatest rock guitarist of his generation.
This is probably the best version of Rock Bottom i've ever listened(along with Strangers in the Night).Michael's playing is divine!
This has got to be one of the most exciting solos ever! I can kind of see what he is doing, lots of legato, hammer-ons, and pull-offs - but so, so damn fluid! Lots of fast 16th notes that just blow you away.
Michaelシェンカー is great
The best Version of Rock Bottom ever. Absolute Great
Greatest guitar solo of all time
Yup
@@lastwhtknight3002 very good
Top 10
Michael Schenker Group 1981. Saw them perform at the Aragon "BrawlRoom", Chicago , Illinois!!! One of the best shows ever! Forever Rest in Peace Cozy Powell!!!!
one of the greatest songs ever written
This line up for MSG, no doubt the best line up and this song, one of the best songs, even though UFO had many great songs. This solo is really something else. It´s a shame he did not continue in UFO.
I don't know how many times I've watched this...In my opinion this is a masterpiece!
"Strangers In The Night" finest live Hard Rock album ever recorded!!!
Agree, played many hours back in my youth with this album, knew every note.
I saw this video for the first time❗️
Michael シェンカーis great❣️
Fuck me , it is 2017 and we still do not have a guitarist that even comes close to this . maybe Uli . the next rap star that gets inducted to the rock and roll hall of fame im gonna throw a flying V at them.
I agree 100% !
You got that right. Last time I saw UFO was in 1996 at The Palace in Hollywood. Every member was just as good if not better then they were in the 70's.
MrWifeaggro you forgot Robin Grower and Stevie Ray Vaughn different style guitar players
on the same great level.
The late great Cozy Powell on drums....
No one plays Rock Bottom like Michael Schenker........Impossible!
@Vee Sexton why?
"You'll never be a famous guitarist without using your pinky" michael schenker 😏😁
Great version! I couldn't tell you how many times I had the police called on me for playing the version from strangers in the night when I was a kid.
Just monumentally fucking awesome, old school rock lesson, I loved those days.
I Saw MSG in Southern California during this tour 81 it was great
saw him in 82 at city hall newcastle , going to see him at sage in gateshead next january 2016 , cant wait , love michael ,
Has to be one of MS best performances, great camera work on his guitar too. Shows just how great the guy is.
after 4 ninutes you get in trance , what a great band and guitarist !
This line up should have been huge. Fantastic. Saw them at Hammersmith Odeon on this tour.
Instantly recognizable style, a true master, and I also saw this tour at Glasgow Apollo.
Have to say that this is a great version, and that the Cozy Powell Powermachine is giving the song even more uhm... power than ever before :-)
I saw this tour....and again in 83. This band had some talent! Cozy played the big bass drum like no other.
Cozy is great but no one plays the drums on this better than Andy!
R.ip to thE Legend of Drums cozy powell!
you're welcome,yeah even thou he's still playing great today,I believe those were the very best years for him & his fans!
The greatest guitar player in the world in in 1981. They(the record companies) didn't know what to do with him.
Michael makes that Flying V howl! Favorite of mine
michael schenker is so great, everytime he plays it's exciting to watch cause he's into it and cuts loose and plays how he feels and the musicians interact, so much better than guys that just come out and play it the same way all the time cause they aint got chops and aren't into it
One of Dave mustaines biggest inspirations
R.I.P. PAUL RAYMOND
woow! I cant believe he is using only 3 fingers ... sooo great, all time favorite solo ever :-)
Big hands and long fingers!
wildflyer1de why he does not use the pinky?
Frank Marino is largely but not completely, a three-finger player too.
You get more strength and thus more control on bends & vibrato when playing with 3 fingers.
Cozy Powel era fantástico! R.I.P
Unreal articulation ... He was playing at a higher level back then... Thx Axe!
This is real Rock Music I can't respect todays Music with out guitar heroes 😭
AXEFLYERFV, brother, thanx a lot 4 posting such a gem. Im a great fan of Cozy as well as of the Schenker brothers. thanx once again from the bottom of my heart.
The Germany guitar god explodes the hell out on this awesome solo! Schenker is the man!
My favorite solo
Love this line up Cozy and Gary💯❤️💯☺️😊😜
Schenker is in aleague on his own just like Hendrix. One reason why Schenker uses 3 fingers is that along with Hendrix he has one of the longest fingers for guitar player...for Gods sake it's in the bone structure guys...he is gifted and a genius.
closest live version of this to Strangers I have seen. Excellent
Михаэль! Браво! Ты лучший!
remember folks onlyv19 years old when he wrote this :-)
Nobody really knows what is real & what is gossip , it starts one way & by the time you hear it on the end of town people have added more to it!
only him & his closed people really could say or not !
I just stick to my thing which is his music & his private life is his life, but he's been playing none stop for the past years now all over the world, thnx for tuning in!
love this sped-up coke-fueled rendition
Schenker; Cozy; FUCK! (and is that Paul Raymond?! why yes. yes it is.)
I second that notion, thank you for all the vids you post of MSG -< espescially with Cozy.
Peace
Mike
I miss the Gibsons! And Cozy too.
Thanks for the flashback!
JR~
always loved the opening riff especially at 0:31 pure adrenaline rush
最高
strangers in the night. best rock bottom solo ever!
Stranger In The Night is the best live rock album ever!!!
I bought 3 LP's(not at once). played them so much( that's how good it was). I literally wore them out while shaking the nails out of the wood siding on the house.
best version
That solo is like a song in itself
I spent years cocking my wah before I found out that Schenker did that!
Killer ! The Schenk rules
Amazing guitar solo !
about 2 months ago!
He's done with the USA tour,Now from April 1/13 through July 21/13 in Europe then June 12/13 through July 12/13 South America!

6:49 - 7:36 of pure destruction
@rhgrafix Retirement?
Are you kidding me? ,he has never retired,maybe by 3 months,in 2007 but by 2008 he's been touring all over the place!!
6:04 to 7:34 is as good as it gets , pure schenker zone
as good as strangers
still prefer the 1975 version this is quite good though
FN Fantastic thats definately the best since strangers man you tube is the bomb damn 5 hours just past me by ----again----
you're welcome Mike & 'sorry for the late thank you on your comment,somehow I missed it!
wow!!
永遠不朽の ギターです
ROCK BOTTOM เป็นเพลงที่สร้างชื่อเสียงให้ UFO และ MICHAEL SCHENKER ควรเล่นให้มีคุณภาพ ใกล้เคียงแผ่น ORIGINAL ให้มากที่สุด..!
มีคนไทยด้วย
insane
this is a god!
He is Bach of rock.
