The Michael Schenker Group (1980)

 Following his split with UFO, Michael Schenker seemingly had no trouble showing the world that he was the driving force behind his former band’s songwriting chops, in addition to his otherworldly playing. I cannot objectively write about this album as this is core to my entire musical identity. Heard this when I was ten years old (in 1980) and it is the foundation of what I consider heavy rock and metal. Absolutely perfect in every way! 

1980 US pressing on Chrysalis. I’ve had this forever and it’s clean AF.
