Simply one of the greatest axemen to strap-on the Flying V!!!  Yes....I know he plays a Dean V now.....sad!!!
Michael owns some the greatest classic rock riffs from his days with UFO.....Lights Out, Doctor Doctor, Rock Bottom!
His solo work is just as amazing....MSG with Gary Barden.
A European Metal SHREDMEISTER!!!  
Classic power chords, fast and precise solos....and his trademark tone is PERFECT!!!  Not the same without the Gibson V....
He is extremely versatile.....check out his acoustic work!
Michael is tempermental and parties very hard!!!  He has cancelled many tour dates over the years.  Some of his fans focus on these issues.....I focus on the amazing talent.  He is a prolific songwriter.....and collaborator with many great musicians.  I look for tour dates every year....and do not miss him when he comes to town!  One of the all time greats...MSG RULES!!!!!!

Great review Ace..Schenker is in my top 5 guitar players of all time..not to be missed..especially in intimate venues like this..
