Never was sure how they had all these guitar heroes and no Micheal Schenker though. He influenced most of them
He seemed to be floating around in the background in the 80's.

yea you really had to be fan to find his stuff in the 80's. Then in about 88 he was back on the radar. He completely changed the way I listened to music as a teen. Always wanted to be good at guitar but wasn't gonna happen. Thats why I stuck to drums

His brother was the one in the spotlight in the 80's.
I saw the Scorpions for the Blackout tour, great show.

Used to crank the sh** out of this tune!
They had such a great style and backed it up with tons of talent.

Micheal was and is my favorite guitarist. So many good ones. I have 2 different album covers of Scorpions Lonesome Crow which Mike was on. First Scorpions album I had was Lovedrive which he played on after leaving UFO.

Im a huge Kiss fan almost as bad as my VH obsession. I love playing there music on my Guitar rig “rigs” lol. This band called Klassic 78’ is a band consisting of rock band guitar techs and even The drummer of Anthrax. They love Kiss and the 70’s sound they made. Klassic’s music sounds strikingly the same but different lyrics and rhythms. I have all 3 EP’s and they all sound great. Played this for @trigger one cold winter day in the barn. He thought he was listing to Kiss 🤣

That's one band I never got to see that I wished I had. I was a huge Kiss fan growing up, which if you liked rock and roll, most of us were.
Glad you guys are posting, just something about standing on a chord in drop D tune that never gets old to me. I can handle country and southern rock too but it has to be really good or I'll get bored with it pretty quick. 🤘
