As the name "Michael Schenker Group" suggests, this team is a project of Michael Schenker. This guitarist started his career in the ranks of "Scorpions" and "UFO", but by the end of the 70s, due to his uncooperative character, he parted ways with both bands and began to assemble his own brigade. Experiments with the former rhythm section of "Montrose" led to nothing, and Schenker went to London, where he entered into a collaboration with vocalist Gary Barden (ex-"Fraser Nash").In 1980, under the direction of Roger Glover, known for Deep Purple and Rainbow, the band's debut album was recorded, in the sessions of which Moe Foster (bass), Simon Phillips (drums) and Don Airey (keyboards) also took part. who during his musical career had the opportunity to play with many leading hard rock and metal bands. However, on the subsequent world tour, the trio was replaced by Chris Glen, Cozy Powell (a friend of Don Airey) and Paul Raymond, respectively. The debut album "The Michael Schenker Group", charged with straightforward but melodic hard rock with gorgeous solos by Schenker, entered the British top ten and clung to the end of the first hundred of "Billboard", and the band in the meantime went to gain concert fame. In the same company, MSG met for the 1981 sessions, which were presided over by Ron Nevison. And although this producer helped the band create a decent commercial product, he significantly exceeded the budget, which drove the band into serious debts.Meanwhile, in order to improve the financial situation, the idea arose to invite a more famous vocalist, and although the band's manager proposed the candidacy of David Coverdale, Schenker decided to take Graham Bonnet as frontman. Along the way, there were a couple of other replacements, and of the previous shots, only Glen remained in place. With the participation of Graham, the album "Assault Attack" was recorded, which looked heavier and rougher against the background of its predecessors. For Bonnet, this work as part of the "Michael Schenker Group" turned out to be the only one, because when the vocalist appeared on stage drunk, Schenker was furious and immediately dismissed him.
Bringing Gary Barden back to the microphone. Michael and his team returned to a more melodic style, but after the release of the studio album "Built To Destroy" and the live album "Rock Will Never Die", the project was disbanded. The band played a farewell concert in December 1983, and after a while the guitarist put together an American version of it with a similar name "McAuley Schenker Group". But that's another story…
