Michael Schenker's Tales of Rock N' Roll

Michael Schenker is one of the most influencial hard rock guitarists. The Hanover, Germany guitarist was playing for the Scorpions in High School. He and his brother, Rudolph Schenker, can be heard playing together on a favorite Scorpions' song Lovedrive. Scorpions is not Michael Schenker's only merit. He was U.F.O./M.S.G. guitarist!
Both Michael and Rudolph Schenker are well distinguished by their Flying Vs. How do two brother's share such passion for one guitar? Michael Schenker says, "Simply put, a 50 watt Marshall and my brother's V!"
Together with M.S.G., Michael Schenker released the 2006 album 25 Years M.S.G. Celebration: Tales of Rock N' Roll. Michael Schekner on the differences in M.S.G.,
"Keep on rocking. I love Pete Holmes. Unfortunately, I had a problem with Rev. They are both excellent musucians and I wish them well. Pete is Rev's buddy. and so I don't think that Pete will be in M.S.G. without Rev. I have excellent replacements and hope to see all you fans soon."

Since it's their fourth(?) or fifth (?) album I imagine Michael saying, "Ah fuck the title, just put M.S.G. on the cover." lol.
