No doubt about it. Hands down period full Stop. Personally ...there are contenders, Made in Japan, Live and Dangerous, Unleashed in the East, But 'Strangers is absolutely my favorite.
I was there!! Friday the 13th of October, 1978! I got the band to sign my jean jacket at Flipside Records in Downers Grove that afternoon. I've seen Michael almost 100 times since. My favorite guitar player EVER!
It's great that Slash is giving some props to Michael Schenker by playing on this track. Back in '87/'88 while giving his earliest interviews, Slash would mention Schenker and UFO, especially the "Strangers In The Night" album, but soon there after, Slash omitted Michael from his list of influences ( possibly he was trying to hide it). Truth is that Slash sounds very much like 1970's UFO era Michael Schenker......the tone ( a specific Marshall/ Gibson flavor) and the notes (fast pentatonics mixed with aeolean, Dorian, mixolydian, etc along with strong melodic themes). So, although Slash is obviously unique ( in some ways) it was actually Schenker who pretty much had that overall style first (any solo off of 'Force It' or 'No Heavy Petting' for example).
Also, Joel Hoekstra, featured on Natural Thing from this album, is channeling Schenker like......well like it's his last meal !!!! I mean wow!!!!!!!Hoekstra does it mega justice !!!obviously, Schenker influenced him
Slash Plays a Lot o lead Guitar..You can hear 2 Different Sounds of Solos... They Have bTW a Total Different way to play!!!! Schenker still a Legend and one of Slash's Favourites Guitar Players...😉😉😉😉
Erik hat beim Gesang einen Killerjob gemacht! Und Erik ist mir bei YT schon aufgefallen! Sehr Geiler Sänger! Michael ja was soll man schon über den Weltbesten Rocker schreiben! Ich liebe seine Musik!
Think that's the best cover of a Phil Mogg vocal I've heard - just the right tone. Jon Bon Jovi has a similar timbre too. Very good version. Slash/Michael duetting sounds fine too. Great idea for an album!
@@StreetTruckinTitan: Yes, but hear Without Love from Slippery When Wet. Could be a UFO song from the Tonka era. And Jon Bon Jovi just helped save someone's life. Let your prejudice have a holiday!🙂
This is the best song I have heard this entire year! I Know its from 1975 but still kick ass! Schenker is guilty for a 20-year-old boy buying a Flying V and Slash is a master. Plus the singer kick ass
1 of the best Lead Guitarist ever to play Mr. Michael Schenker !! I like this version sounds great.So glad 1 got to see him twice while he was in U.F.O. they were freaking awesome !!
Drums are loud, I’ve become a MSG fan over these recent years, it’s opened up like a whole new arena of refined & clever music for me : I will get every album now, love temple of rock too : superb stuff indeed
I had my doubts about re-recording UFO songs with guest artists 50 yrs on, but this first single is dynamite! Micheal Schenker consistently comes up with the musical goods. I hope we can buy physical copies in the near future.
I could of heard them trading off solos back and forth for another 5 minutes. It's crazy how Schenker can take his old solos and add a dash of something to keep it fresh
Pre ordering this album ! I saw UFO throughout the 70s and early 80s in the San Francisco Bay Area . They were fantastic. This is a Great song and I can’t wait for the full album . 🙌🏼
Erik did a killer job on vocals! 🎤🤘
THIS is what music is supposed to sound like……killer guitar, great vocals…Hell Yes !!!
I miss UFO ….
U F O/Rush. Winterland/San Francisco/1977
Schenker and Slash have such distinctive sounds that come out on this one! And Erik, dude’s a fantastic singer.
I really really wish that Erik didn't leave Skid Row
@@brianpatrickreddington1750 or H.E.A.T.
Slash is great but SCHENKER,,,,,,,
Strangers In The Night… THE Gold Standard of Live Albums!!!
Yep, I agree but right along with KISS ALIVE.
@@MarkDrumzEntertainment Kiss Alive…you’re joking right?
Err....Hawkwind Space Ritual.
Iam 65 and my old idols UFO/Schenker,,, and Erik is a kick ass singer !
Erik did justice to Phil. He sounds great here. Slash did a great job as well.
close to the same tone as phil.
Erik is a kick ass singer.
My favorite guitar player, Michael Schenker. Master of the flying V!!!!!
Strangers in the night , arguably the greatest live album ever , absolutely a damn classic still as powerful today as its release in 1979
No doubt about it. Hands down period full Stop. Personally ...there are contenders, Made in Japan, Live and Dangerous, Unleashed in the East, But 'Strangers is absolutely my favorite.
" Hello Chicago .. Won't You Please Welcome From England ..... U .F .O !! "
Wie Recht du hast,Bestes Livealbum ever.
Strangers in the night will be I'm my top spot to but Tokyo tapes feom scorpions is there too
I was there!! Friday the 13th of October, 1978! I got the band to sign my jean jacket at Flipside Records in Downers Grove that afternoon. I've seen Michael almost 100 times since. My favorite guitar player EVER!
Killer version. Erik Gronwall is awesome, as always.
Followed schenker for over 50 years legendary axe man
Thee Axeman
Michael Schenker plays always the best solos
Completely Melodic !!
Absolutely
Fucking Awesome! Love hearing new versions of a classic sound.
Michael and Slash have such different, distinctive sounds, but they really compliment each other.
Well said. Cheers
Sounds great. The singer is killer!
UFO/Schenker fan for life
2 distinct styles…
Jamming together
Blowing the doors off the studio!
Great vocals…
I would pay good money to see this in person.
They all sound great and Erik killing it here. Love Erik's vocals anyway, but he sounds great here.
UFO is and always will be one of my very favorite bands as Michael Schenker is one of my very favorite guitarists!
Oh my, love the sounf of it, didn't remember how amazing this guys were, Schenker fan for life 2 !!!
The Incredible Michael Schenker. Welcome this new album to celebrate old years with UFO.
It's great that Slash is giving some props to Michael Schenker by playing on this track.

So, although Slash is obviously unique ( in some ways) it was actually Schenker who pretty much had that overall style first (any solo off of 'Force It' or 'No Heavy Petting' for example).
Agree, you can tell by Slashes pentatonic leads with GNR that Schenker was/is a major influence. A good influence to have.
Exactly, Slash's style is too close to M,cheal's that era..
'Force It' and 'No Heavy Petting' ! Both in my eternal Top Ten.
Who is slash.
Lights out . One of my top records.
Also, Joel Hoekstra, featured on Natural Thing from this album, is channeling Schenker like......well like it's his last meal !!!! I mean wow!!!!!!!Hoekstra does it mega justice !!!obviously, Schenker influenced him
Schenker! Over four decades of personal inspiration! Vielen, vielen dank Herr Schenker!
Good Mix ane Erik Grönwall’s Amazing voice!!⚡️❤️🔥🎶❤️🔥🎶🎸👏🏼
Great vocals!|
awesome UFO the best rock band ever especially with young Mr Schenker if you know you know🤘
Walk on Water and Covenant were dynamite too. Check them out.
Erik is the man, i've saw him with Skid row i hope he can go back, great vocals
Eric is an amacing Singer.🎉
You know your a legend when you have Slash as your rhythm player!
Slash is trading off leads with Schenker...
Knopfler still beats him with Clapton on rytm guitar 😂
I know right, this sounds pretty rad!
Right 🎉
Slash Plays a Lot o lead Guitar..You can hear 2 Different Sounds of Solos...
They Have bTW a Total Different way to play!!!! Schenker still a Legend and one of Slash's Favourites Guitar Players...😉😉😉😉
Obsession still my favorite UFO album. This tune brings back memories of when I first heard them though
Erik hat beim Gesang einen Killerjob gemacht! Und Erik ist mir bei YT schon aufgefallen! Sehr Geiler Sänger! Michael ja was soll man schon über den Weltbesten Rocker schreiben! Ich liebe seine Musik!
Amazing Version !!!! Erik nailed The Vocal in this Song in pure Awesomeness ♥️.
Michael and Slash did an Amazing Job .
🤟😎
Brutal! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
WOW! Awesome remake of a classic UFO song! I consider “Force It” to be one of their greatest albums ever. 👍🏻😎
yeah force it is tops
Amazing ❤Erik did a killer job 🤘
They all did 😊
@@themadbassist yes of course 🤘
Erik is such an amazing singer and he seems like such a down to Earth dude.
Suena espectacular
Awesome. Brings me back to the early 70's. Loved UFO.
❤ UFO
Sounds great! Love Eriks voice!❤
I agree. He sounds enough like Phil Mogg to pull this off.
Mk. a G.O.A.T. this is the sound. Thank you, Slash for taking the ride. Much respect.
Sounds amazing!! Erik is the best!!!
Ok, have not said this in a long long time.......I cant wait for this album!!
Imagine if Erik will sing an entire album of Michael Schenker, this would a superb new MSG effort. 🤘🏻
Great idea! Eddie was asked to fill in after MS left UFO, his response? “Those shoes are too big to fill!”
Never saw this coming. Will be a flashback when this comes out. Moog also still going. Awesome
Strangers in the Night. Some of the best guitar ever recorded.
I still say the best live album ever. The latest release with the original album and all 6 shows it was taken from makes for some damn fine listening.
Obsession is another all-timer
Greatest live album ever recorded
Erik is a fantastic singer
Erik you always rock 🤘🏻🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Love it!! Erik, you Rock 🎤🎶🤘
Two of the three GoaT Guitar Gods together and Eric at his Peak - Wonderful! 😉
Take This On The Road!
Better every time I listen to it.
Great singing. Great guitar playing. Yes, indeed. Approved. What about the fantastic drum sound and playing? Awesome work Brian Tichy.🤘🤘🥁🥁
Ready for the whole album!!!!! SCHENKER RULZZZZ!!!!!!
Think that's the best cover of a Phil Mogg vocal I've heard - just the right tone. Jon Bon Jovi has a similar timbre too. Very good version. Slash/Michael duetting sounds fine too. Great idea for an album!
Youre right about the Erik Gronwall / Phil Mogg comparison. But I puked a little thinking about Bon Jovi singing a UFO song.
@@StreetTruckinTitan: Yes, but hear Without Love from Slippery When Wet. Could be a UFO song from the Tonka era. And Jon Bon Jovi just helped save someone's life. Let your prejudice have a holiday!🙂
Whooa.... this is a great combination of singer and band... Hot solid sound....
Amazing!!!!! Erik is spectacular!!!!! ❤❤❤
Schenker just lays down the most beautifully badass cascading lines. Both are great.
I love this song. Erik as great as usual!
Schenker & Grönwall, that Rock's 👍
Great track strangers in the night one of the greatest live albums ever
Love Schenker and slash and Eric puts the icing on the cake . ps. MS = Living Legend
Obviously love the original, but this FANTASTIC,
MS is on point, and AR has killed it!! 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Amazing Erik! 🤟💥🔥
Good job Mr. Grönwall 🤘🤘🤘
Great rocksong. ...timeless 🤘🤘🤘
I know that song nearly 50 years! !
I'll be buying it when it comes out, I own all the UFO albums been a fan since 1975
Ditto
Ok. That was way better than I was expecting.
This is the best song I have heard this entire year! I Know its from 1975 but still kick ass! Schenker is guilty for a 20-year-old boy buying a Flying V and Slash is a master. Plus the singer kick ass
Songs from the 70s are timeless. They will always “kick ass”.
Killer album. Still rocking it today
1 of the best Lead Guitarist ever to play Mr. Michael Schenker !! I like this version sounds great.So glad 1 got to see him twice while he was in U.F.O. they were freaking awesome !!

Saw UFO in 77, amazing show, saw them with AC/DC
I had my doubts about re-recording UFO songs with guest artists 50 yrs on, but this first single is dynamite! Micheal Schenker consistently comes up with the musical goods. I hope we can buy physical copies in the near future.
Awesome! Erik rocks!
