Description
This newly remastered 6CD, 66 track collection brings together a collection of Michael Schenker material, recorded from 1979 - 1983. A turbulent time for Michael, following his exit from UFO via Scorpions. Featuring the studio albums Michael Schenker Group, MSG, Assault Attack, Built to Destroy (both UK and US versions) as well as a disc of Demos & Alternative Versions featuring the entire 1979 demo tape, rare monitor mixes and single versions and a disc of completely unreleased material, with early studio takes and rough monitor mixes. At the centre of this package is a 52-page booklet which includes newly conducted interviews with Michael Schenker, Gary Barden and Graham Bonnet, with extensive liner notes by Jerry Ewing of Classic Rock, neatly annotated with rare photographs and imagery. This stylish set comes housed in a two-piece slipcase box with all original album art reproduced as mini-LP sleeves with inner sleeves. All music has been remastered from original tape transfers at AIR Mastering.
Following Schenker's departure from UFO and Scorpions and having gained a reputation as one of the most exciting guitarists in hard rock, anticipation was high for Michael's own band - MSG did not disappoint. Leading the burgeoning heavy metal scene, this string of albums solidified their position as one of the most important figures on the scene.
Format:
6-CD case-bound box set with all material newly remastered at AIR Studios.
52-page booklet with liner notes from Jerry Ewing and interviews with Michael Schenker, Gary Barden and Graham Bonnet.
Featuring two bonus discs of previously unreleased and rare music.
