MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP [LIGHTS OUT] 1981

[mistymagicrich]

長年ロニーやグラハムの後ろで叩いてたコージーにしてみれば

ゲイリー・バーデンのVo.は、さぞキツかったろうなw

でもスーパーロック84で、レイ・ケネディのVo.を聴いた時は

ゲイリー戻ってくれとか、不覚にも思っちまったよ！！

にしてもゲイリー・バーデンは人柄良さそうだwww

[SnakeRambo]

How the hell did you get this so loud?

[MrsMogg]

Compared to PHIL " ROCK GOD " MOGG -

anyone sounds bad singing this ....

PHIL MOGG RULES !!

[fastfoodclowns]

I think he sings like that b/c his pants are too tight.

[Fudgecave]

it' live kiddies...YES.!!!!!..musicians ACTUALLY PLAYED INSTRUMENTS AT ONE TIME,,,,,L I V e !!!

[groomercab]

Michael rocks as always,cozy's the dogs bollocks but Gary? Oh dear lol.fuckin awful.how to murder a classic.

[Upperhand77]

One of the best Metal tunes ever!

[TheNeonlouie]

RIP cozy 

[mschenker2]

All always a lot of comment thank you

[peazlove247]

dear me, i realized my mouth was stuck open during that solo...

[jonnyworx]

first time i have heard UFO, only have MSG, but now I know why its arguably one of his best, fukin killer solos!!!

[capitalcrime]

Fucking Killer Solo

[Monkeyspankerelite]

Damned! This is HEAVY ROCK!!!

What ever happened ti Gary Barden?

Greatest heavy singer ever....

[diadane85]

God help that pitiful singer- I'm surprised Michael put up with that crap back then....

[bonscott55]

agreed singer sucks !!!!

[lambeau36leaper]

The singer blows ... Michael is the BEST....EVER!

[activ8now]

Holy shiite! Schenker rips- makes me wanna put on a winged suit and contour fly some mountain or some other safe sport! ;)

[phrygian3rd]

GOD DAMNIT! THIS IS IT! THIS IS THE SHIT! Michael never fails to disappoint and here's the proof... 1:54 It's just Michael fucking shit up, supremely GOOD!!!

[blindmellonchittlen]

Sounds like UFO meets Iron Maiden with that singer

[legacyofpop]

@couch63

Gary Barden.... I agree.. Saw 'em live years ago.. Gary sucked.

[ryurik28]

am I the only one who thinks cozy powell still kicks ass in this song??

[couch63]

@ryurik28 Cozy killed !

[Mixnsplit]

This version has such a great vibe!!!

[manny45629]

rip gary!

[disabledmind]

michael, gary and cozy are fucking amazing.

[Wag2112]

Great vid - I collected several MSG albums back about '85. This is the very first time I've ever seen them play ... . ..  I always considered MSG as a bit more um raw ? than UFO - both fantastic in their own right - but a bit different

[MrDugnuts]

playing it way to fast

[SabuPtolemy]

@MrDugnuts That's Cozy Powell syndrome for you. Almost every live video on YT with Cozy in it, he rushes the song and kills the groove. It's even worse with Whitesnake than with MSG. I mean, Cozy is an amazing drummer and a total legend but he really should've played with a click live to reign himself in a little.

[vamborooolz]

@SabuPtolemy Yep, have to agree with you there. And whilst MSG were touring with an overly fast rendition of Lights Out, UFO and Paul Chapman were applying the brakes to the song and ruining the solos. Wonder why Andy Parker slowed down the tempo on those tours?

[JimmyLeeVanDePutte]

Not bad!!! But not Chicago.

[UKRelic]

I saw UFO in the early 80's in Chelmsford Odeon England small venue and loud music......happy times

[WarWolves828]

This song just doesn't sound right without the rhythm guitar...

[rw5791]

lights out in london?....1940?..........blit­zkrieg by air?

Shit,this band is tight,man.The glory days before all the grunge posers arrived on the scene.

[generaljed]

Young fellows !! ROCK LIVES !! late 70ś and early 80ś the best years i ever had !!

[Danuet]

Despite Barden and Powell doing their best to ruin it, Schenker absolutely rips with the solos - holy shit!

[CoolStrat62]

Gawwy Barden is annoying in this , I got a feeling they may have been indulging in a few "refreshments" before the gig , or as Gawwy would say " a few wefweshments" LOL

[TheRisingforce2000]

the drummer cozy powell was using the cymbals way too much in this video he totaly ruined the song this is a rock band not a jazz group

[juneausucks]

FUCKING OLD SCHOOL METAL KICKS ASS

[simgorm]

Dreadful vocal.

[gsisola]

Why does it say 'MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP"... it's friggin' UFO.... is "Doctor, Doctor"... MICHAEL SCHENKER GROUP.... NO, it's UFO.

[TheRisingforce2000]

@gsisola its the micheal schenker group doing a ufo song

[gfaris13]

@gsisola I think if you write the song, you can play it anytime you want, whether you are in UFO or your own band. Its all Schenker's music.

[sdsuback]

That was the year for MSG and Michael. To bad the video goes black when Michael is at the core of his solo. Dig Cozy's shirt! I wore that shirt out in high school. The audience is epic, especially the hession next to the bored chick. GREAT VIDEO, thanks to whoever posted this. Magic.

[Renegade46CB]

haha, the exceptionally bored looking woman at 1:49

[BlackmoreRules]

Wow.Talk about a high energy version!!!! Excellent!

[ChicagoStyleMusic]

Phenomenal. Does it EVER get old?

[TartanBear]

Hey I agree this was not Gary Barden's finest moment and I really loved UFO, but I do like his vocals in quite a few MSG tracks from that time. Not one for the purest, but I especially like some of the live tracks he did on One night at the Budakan, really good live album if you have not checked it out.

[njbee64]

@TartanBear saw them in nyc at the fillmore, july 31st, schenker was awesome, but he needs 2 get rid of barden, barden was never a singer, i posted some comments about him on july 31st and all these people r mad at me, i dint understand, nothing against barden, he cant sing and mike should get a real good singer, not fair 2 the fans or the band.

[Sk8Nature]

DUDE!!!!

SCHENKER OWNS THE PENTATONIC SCALES

[arlanoll]

METALLICIOUS!

[PastryPieTerrorist]

I'm sure Phil Moog is good ;)

Phil Mogg executed every song brilliantly, kept it simple and melodic.

Can't blame this guy for wanting to emulate him

[MarcosEsquandolas]

Seems like no matter who it is, anyone trying to sing a UFO song sounds like an idiot.... In retrospect I guess Phil Moog was THAT good

[pay6915]

MS tone is bad ass

[ftsmoo]

COZY.



[EUguitarRULE]

@ftsmoo to much cymbals he fucks up the song.

[shrineme]

Schenker was the X factor for UFO. They took hard rock to its peak !

Those 1970's albums UFO made with Schenker are great,

absolute classics.

[blakdimon]

Michael Shenker is it and that that.. We can all learn from him. He is God guitar sent.

My wife and I saw him at the H.O.B. in New Orleans and he signed our autographs.

He was a real fan pleaser. I saw UFO there and the lead singer did not even care to sign my my FORCE IT album. M. S. G. was Kewl. to mingle. sorry UFO. excuse me.

[PistolPackingPatriot]

God damn that krazy fukkin German can JAM! Proof we ARE the MASTER RACE! Suck it rap and hip hop fans!

[PistolPackingPatriot]

God damn that krazy fukkin German can JAM!

[LBjim]

When MSG was MSG!!! Their best line-up bar none!!

[SteveSparx]

Phil Moog Blows this clown away

[MetalBassist71]

@SteveSparx I agree. This guy certainly isn't Phil Mogg.

[borntobewildpascal]

ouais !!! dans l'temp qui avais des solo débile ...

[theultimateknowledge]

This is MSG

[maxxwell1958]

Damn Kraut can play lol say UFO in 78 fucking great saw MSG too.

[SwordsInTheWind]

how is this band called?

Michael Schenker Group or UFO?

[miyataro1966]

Maybe MSG.The best play of LIGHTS OUT is UFO LIVE album,I think!

Mecha saikoooooooooooo.

[6Stargazer]

@SwordsInTheWind This band called Michael Schenker Group. but this song "Lights Out" is by UFO. Michael schenker was in UFO before MSG. so ya.

[izzinami]

maybe theres not enough room on stage for the egos of both a really good singer AND schenker?

[theneil100]

I like bardens chanting,he was on one of my all time favourite albums,MSG all the tracks on that album are classics,my favourites are on and on,and mad axeman.

[kajuku67]

Gary Barden is absolutely shit - I don't know what ever schenker saw in him, he is a complete twat. He looks shit, he sings shit and he can't hold a candle to Phil Mogg.

[mistertomasP]

GO U.F.O. So much better than this.

[believer06]

Not even close to as good as the original. Schenker should have never left UFO. I lost interest in Schenker after his 1st solo LP. Great guitarist, but his song writing lacks the power amd emotion it had with UFO. Schenker/Way/Mogg =Awsome song writing

[kingofthedeep]

MSG's second release is awesome as well.

[pussyhunter1961]

The ashes of ufo gary barden was a great msg  singer not much cover ufo tunes but you gotta sing them if you sing for micheal schenker

[whitethronebooks]

Gary Barden on vocals? God, he was so freakin' awful.

[123winnie123]

you know what i agree he is not the best..........but do you really think there is 1 person there who cares if the guy is singing good or not...20 some add yrs later we can sit here and say he is awful but back then he was the man i am sure

[flyingv19671]

this guy needs some throat coat so he don't crack and he better not look at me

[videogamer714]

OMG,That singer ruined a great song,Michael still rocked it but still the singer is lame.

[davidscriven17]

hey prick do you rnr is about singing ..... ?  schenker god you all wait...

[JustACrazyGoatLady]

Schenker plays his ass off no doubt but in my mind only Moog can sing this song...it was weak about viewable cuz of Schenker.

[TheRisingforce2000]

i have this on video also and it is awesome..he never trims his strings,,just one of his trademarks

[davidscriven17]

GOd

[davidscriven17]

god ....

[tomakiakls]

you forget adrian smith and davve murray from iron maiden,hendrix,chet atkins,brian may and many more....

[camposi]

The guitar heroes for me: Schenker, Blackmore, Moore, Latimer, Morse, Petrucci. They performed their own style.

[HighZombiesRule]

Hey guys I'm trying to find some other guitar players who have this similar blues rock/hard rock sound, who else is out there?

[publykanimal9]

GARY MOORE!!!!! he has kinda left rock for pure blues but he is a MUTHER FUCKER of guitar...hope you like it

[HighZombiesRule]

I've already heard and like his stuff. Any more? :D

[EUguitarRULE]

Thats kind of hard thats like asking God for a miracle....I mean you have to have tone, melody, timing, phrasing, rock, blues, neo-classical, compose etc...very hard to mention but Schenker sits at top with Gary Moore looking up at him.

[davyaelmans]

no one, Schenker's unique!

[Brucev7]

Some of y'all must not like "Rainbow." How bout Blackmoore?

[bloobear1]

Blackmore's not a bad player but I think Michael gets a better sound/tone and is a moer accurate player. Too many times I've heard Ritchie fluff solos. That said I'm a big fan of the Dio Rainbow songs but prefer Schenker but both are different.

[Jacobrester]

Terrible

[jelsma]

Are you on drugs? The guitarplaying of master Schenker is amazing and outstanding.

[tsvetanstoychev]

Vocals have never been the strongest part of the MSG. Graham Bonnet was the biggest star. Others were amateurs. But Schkenker is GOD

[stewielad]

It's a good version apart from that prick "singing". He mullers it really badly.

[KukaJoe]

Yeah....the vocals could be better. Hard to believe Michael couldn't find better.

[bloobear1]

Yeah I thought Barden was weak and they could have found a better vocalist. Funny but I find that Schenker was better with UFO and UFO were better with Michael. The same with Dio and Blackmore.

[Brucev7]

I think so about Mike and UFO, then Ronnie J. and Rainbow.

[stuforty2]

i think hes quite a good singer ! imho :)

[ddecrsito19]

No comparision between the live UFO version and this take. Moog's vocals are far superior and the playing is so much tight with UFO. MS sounds pretty good, that's about it. Barden's vocals are terrible, pretension and uses special effects way to much and it sounds like crap. Great song though!

[TheRisingforce2000]

you hear all that static in the background thats cozy over doing it hittin the cymballs too much

[Schon2112]

AWESOME!! Brings back alot of great Memories!! UFO!!!!!!!!!!!!

[evelskunny]

his voice always sucked,Msg bands are a lot better,

[ddecrsito19]

I agree with others, the UFO version of this song is superior with Moog singing and overall the playing is better as well IMHO.

[MrPopliphaha]

@ddecrsito19 his name is mogg

[archieferrarini]

(((MSG))) = (((UFO))) =  #1

[TheEarnold]

gary barden's vocs are, as others have pointed out, the weak point of this cut. he looks like he's doing karaoke, while michael just shreds his solos.

[mike59225923]

Michael schenker is amazing great playing.

[TomKatRecords]

You just can't have anyone sing these songs better than Phil moog. sorry, not even close.

[lstevens35]

I don't get why Michael thinks Gary is such a great vocalist???Robin Mcauley is a 100000 times better,as well as stage presence beats Gary out anyday.I think maybe Mikey is hard of hearing lol.

[igluver15]

This Singer Blows goats!!!

[suburbangal]

I was told to see this video. He is awesome 5/5

PLEASE go to my favs and click on SUBURBAN GUY ROCKIN OUT

he doesnt read music, really feels what he plays and improvises his songs as he goes along. the other 2 favs are him also ARIEL (awesome shredding) and ARIEL SIMANTOV (awesome sweeping) pls view comment and rate them s we think he deserves recognition. thanks everyone!

[wolfstyle68]

How 'bout showing Michael during the solo,brainchild?

[kenzerh65]

I just seen MSG in seattle on july 8th at studio seven. Best performance of his career. truly incredible. Glad they got the energetic bass player back.

[zr24X4ROCKS]

it always looks like schenker is better than the band he's in.

[XvDarkArcanavX]

He is ^_^

[zeppearl]

Just saw MSG in Chicago on 6-29-2009...Michael is still amazing!!! ....but Bass player jumps around to much and needs to calm down with the hellicopter thing he does....otherwise great gig!!

[classicrockrockz]

I'm seeing MSG this Tuesday. I can't wait!!!

[150rents]

msg was the first band i saw live around 1981 at wolverhampton civic hall

[tonnybrookhuis]

what happened between michael and graham bonnet ? think he was the best singer he had...

[evelskunny]

i know the singing is awful,michael needed a dio or geoff tate in his bands in the early days,

[lubecktube]

Guitar God = Michael Schenker

[montyburns2000]

Hab das damals auf WDR gesehen, weiss jemand obs das nun auf DVD gibt oder wo man es herkriegen kann?

Beste Schenker-Ära.....

[metalmarkholland]

Amazing band !

Song nearly 30 years old, stand up and blow this song and solo's away...

Uhm, good luck ! :-) Featured on my page,

Sharkie

[pakanasielu]

Who is this little punk-ass motherfucker that can't sing?

[LordGandor3]

Yah since Michel left UFO he has had some shall we say vocally challenged singers especially live

[kingofthedeep]

Gary Barden

[bleem1]

Love Schenker, LOVE Cozy.......I have way too many MSG albums - I really love the UFO live version (I think I wore that album out as a kid), but I actually have seen MSG 3 times playing this live, which was amazing as well

[aphasia1972]

powell and schenker are great musicians

[sww200]

By eck, that singer fellow's got breasts!

[Vstrat0]

Mogg is so underrated and comparing somebody to him singing this stuff is a joke... who cares? IT THUMPS

[zygo666]

Yes That Hystory!

[DanneDonut]

Haha i laughed my ass off at 2:26! xD

[blacksabfan]

Well Barden mumbling 75% of the song here is sort of shitty, but I didn't watch this because he was in it. Schenker and Powell really shine here.

[OFR]

Listen to Bardens around 1:15, it';s like he doesn't know the words, doesn't speak English, is drunk AND is way too excited to pay attention. Ouch.

Cozy Powell is amazing.

[kingofthedeep]

You guys are high

[progress67]

We always knew Gary Barden was the worst vocalist but, he actually made MSG - he was so passionate it didnt matter to be honest. The songs are awesome......

[DKH1103]

I totally agree...the passion shone through! The MSG shows I saw with Barden were some of the most exciting rock I ever saw.

[koryichards]

who cares about the singer? This is MSG, it is all about Michael Schenker.

[candyapplechris]

The singer is a total douche bag.

[SpikerSpiegel]

live performance never be compared with the record album......

if u say that for the voice

[kamaboko1]

God, was Gary Barton off or what? His performance wasn't even worthy of an American Idol audition.

[Blueagle8u]

Ha! Donominator! I am in a heavy metal copy band,I do Dio,Ozzy,Klaus,Dave Mustaine! Now fall to your kness and pay homage to the heavy metal Gods! (oh and like that vocalist SUPER SUX!! The guy EVEN has a LISP! OMG!!!LMFAO!!!

[shunyotube]

It's because he was nearly always extremely drunk.

[rufusfurburger]

Great song, great guitarist and a singer who even sounded dire on their studio stuff let alone live.

[Blueagle8u]

hahaha ignorant fool!

[Blueagle8u]

I'm a vocalist and I have to say,this singer SUX!!

[kingofthedeep]

u suck

[WorldDominator666]

you probably like the jonas brothers
