    Micheal Schenker is back...

    Video footage of MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP (MSG) performing the song "Lost Horizons" on June 9, 2009 at the Key Club in West Hollywood, California can be viewed below.

    MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP's current touring lineup is as follows:

    Michael Schenker (Guitar)
    Gary Barden (Vocals)
    Wayne Findlay (Guitar, Keyboards)
    Pete Holmes (Drums)
    Rev Jones (Bass)

    MSG's North American trek was originally scheduled to take place in March/April but was postponed due to a delay in receiving the necessary paperwork required for Schenker to enter the U.S.

    Audio samples of all 12 tracks that appear on SCHENKER BARDEN ACOUSTIC PROJECT's first album, "Gypsy Lady", are available for streaming on Play.com.

    "Gipsy Lady" was released on May 19 via Inakustik.

    Almost one year after his phenomenal comeback album "In The Midst Of Beauty" and follow-up tour, guitarist Michael Schenker has collaborated with singer Gary Barden to give the cleverly arranged songs just the touch of soul they need for full impact. And with Michael Voss, Schenker has an experienced producer, a second guitarist as well as a background vocalist on board, who delivers an outstanding performance. Kai Luennemann on percussion completes the team. Using a flamenco guitar with castanets in "Dance Lady Gipsy" conjures up a hot-blooded gypsy dancing before your eyes, while the fiddle and flutes in "Fight For Freedom" transport you to beautiful Ireland.

    I thought the same thing when I saw Barden's name.

    Nice.

    Hopefully he beat his demons.

          I was there last night, right behind the person who videotaped this. Schenker shined and Barden was good too. Set consisted of 8 songs from 1st 2 MSG albums, 1 from 4th, 3 new songs. Encore was Doctor Doctor w/ Robin McAuley and Rock Bottom. Great show!

            Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

                  McAuley is a great singer who I've (over the years) grown to really appreciate. Hell of a nice guy as well. Schenker is as well (when he's in his sober phase)

                  I hope he does too. He seems poised for a US comeback...

                    Must be the dude's hero as he was playing a Dean guitar that said Dime on it.
                    Quick check of Dean website found Dimebag Darrell USA - Dime Razorback Series - Dimebag Darrell Guitars

                            Nice to see Michael ditched the Pseudo dirtbag/homeless guy look.

                            Now he needs to get his ass up to Canada, pronto!

                              Remasters of 1st 2 Schenker group albums have bonus cuts of unreleased tracks with Sheehan and live tracks with Barden.

                              In case you haven't heard.
