Customer Reviews Schenker is the Best Schenker's ability to display such strong emotion in his playing is just phenomenal. This is a great compilation of Schenker's early MSG work. This album gets 5 stars for the 5 star (guitar) tracks on it: Lost Horizons, Attack of A Mad Axeman, Let Sleeping Dogs Lie, Capt. Nemo and Desert Song. Even though I don't particularly like a couple of tracks (In to the Arena & Armed and Ready) and the sound to me is a little dated, this is worth buying simply to have Schenker's solos on the 5 tracks above. Early Schenker at his Best Fortunately the tracks included here shwcase his heavier side and his stellar guitar playing, unlike many best of albums that are only concerned with radio and video hits. This CD represents the best of Michael's work with MSG in the mid early to mid 1980's. Fans of European style guitar playing will love this album and come to realize how influential Michael Schenker's playing is to many of today's guitar heroes, even though he may be as well known. .
