Matthias Jabs & Michael Schenker PART II (live in Essen Germany 02.10.2009)

[fiveinslide6]

I'm fascinated by how both of them could easily slip into banality by falling back on things that are too close to traditional blues. They somehow keep it sounding wild/metal. Very cool!

micheal is more talented than matthias,but only PLAYS better than matthias when he has his head together{which is rarely} matthias ALWAYS has his shit together and has the best live sound ive ever heard{and ive heard them all...........twice}

[Hardrockjaeger]

...Matthias plays better than Michael....but Michael is also a very good guitar player....

[timjessa1]

two GIANTS of guitar.... it's like picking your favorite child from your kids....

[davidscriven17]

its called a duel guys an schenker lost

[fistofm3tal]

No use comparing. They both are legends and have their own style. I'm just glad I've had the pleasure of being alive to watch both of these great guitarist grace the stage before me. What incredible music BOTH have made for us to enjoy. Doesn't really matter who is better...they both ROCK! \ m / ( -  _ - ) \ m /

Matthias is really good, Schenker is one of the GREATS though.

[vikm41d]

Comparing them on basis of this video is stupidity.I dont think Matthias is cutting Schenker off besides both video and audio are crappy.

[FabioScorpions]

Look, Michael and Matthias are different guitarists, is not correct to compare them only with this video, it takes a lot more stuff to do this. But based on what I know and hear, Matthias is much better! I think Van Halen and Matthias Jabs are the best guitarists.

[TheArtemZ]

it was the scorpions show, not m. shenker's one!

[dirkworld]

Hold the phone kids.... Michael Schenker is a legend. He's one of the tastiest bluesy guitar players in the world. However, Matthias is technically a more proficient guitar player. He is also super tasty but also has an arsenal of diminished minor runs and arpeggios that michael couldnt be bothered with. To compare them is useless. BOTH are incredible at what THEY do.

[dirkworld]

@dirkworld amen. This is beyond correct.

[MGreenway6669]

Lol I really don't think Jabs has this evil masterplan to not let Michael show him up. Pretty sure this is just two guys playing. Probably better off just sitting back and enjoying it.

[EUguitarRULE]

Jabs is douchebag he doesnt even let Michael play and get in there. Jabs cuts him off!

[paddlefoot01]

i dont like the way matthias walks all over michael, not letting him shine bcuz hes afraid of michaels ability to improvize and create on the spot melodious solos that ultimately are better n more memorable. i do love matthias' work , i think he just disrespects mike too much....thats all

[FreeMTrider]

@paddlefoot01 These guys have played together for years...I think they both respect each other equally...yes, Michael is better, but I don't think they are doing what you feel is happening.

[jcmangan]

Off course Matthias is a very strong player, but nothing comparable to Michael. It`s a whole different league.

[redmanson121]

As a fast and somehow experienced guitar player in hard rock and heavy metal... no matter how many times I listen to a matthias jabs solos, I still get amazed by the speed, skill and enthusiasm his solos have. Matthias has the best stage performance of all guitarists and his solos are so creative and fast... he's gotta be the best!

[lalobarrera99]

that Space EXplorer is awesome!

[olivierpre]

they must play more solo like this !! matthias is so great... and michael too !!

[FenderStratShredder]

somewhere i heard those 2 were brothers i dont if thats true anyone know?

[lstevens35]

no michael the blonde is brothers to rudolf,who is the rythmn guitarist for the scorps.that is matthias jabs,lead guitar with michael.

[CaptainGrevious]

Listening to this with ear buds...Tone on Matthias' playing hurts my ears....however Michael's tone is sweet and full bodied.

[GiakGtA]

Grandissimi!!!! Io c'ero!!!!

[sampauttaja]

I want more !

[believer2005]
