Burch I put my comment on this ‘pinned’ comment from you guys in hopes that you would be more apt to see it ….Sir I cannot believe you guys are doing a clip on this …I still have the ‘cassingle’ of this song in my old collection….I heard it one time on the radio and said I’ve got to get that song. None of my friends knew this group, but this song was the coolest song I had ever heard in a long time…. when your video on this popped up on my recommended and I saw CSG Anytime, my mouth dropped. I will admit this came out from left-field when I saw it on your channel….. so psyched you guys did this
McAuley Schenker Group did have a couple of successful singles - "Gimme your love" ... "Love is not a game" ... 'Follow the night'... 🤘🤘 Michael Schenker (guitar) is still actively recording and touring.
Oddly enough, as an 80's guy, I have no idea why I never got into MSG back in the day. However, now I love Robin McAuley's voice. His last couple albums and the Black Swan album he did were amazing. How he still sounds just as good today is unreal.
Ahhh, MSG with McAuley .... the first band i ever saw live. I was 12 years old and we went on december 1987 to see Whitesnake at the Wembley Arena, and the opening act was MSG. What great memories.
One of my favorite bands, the guitar virtuosity of Michael Schenker and Robin McAuley's powerful voice. I still play their first two albums. Gimme Your Love, I Don't Wanna Lose, Time, Love Is Not A Game, Save Yourself, I could go on. Can't wait to see y'all do more MSG (with Robin) and hope you do get him to come on!
Hey Alexis your a beauty lucky for your husband keep letting burtch introduce u too good music. Btw burtch had most your pics that u took for RIP or metal edge magazines on wall when I was teenager now I'm 47🤘🤘🤘
The other guitarist in this is Steve Mann, touring with and playing with him again. The drummer Bodo S is playing and touring again too with him since Ted McKenna passed. The bass player is Rocky Newton. Newton and Mann are in Lionheart now too.
Excellent song, Burch. Alexis, you could not look any lovelier. This song triggered an earworm, reminded me of a song I could barely grasp at in my subconscious, and it just hit me . . . Hinder - Get Stoned, a dedication to the one for me. Maybe what is nagging at Alexis?
Saw Schenker just this past fall, great show! Saw him back in 2019 at Berklee in Boston doing Schemer Fest. He had Graham Bonnet, Dougie White, Gary Barden and Robin McCauley singing. Covered all different eras of his career. Show was amazing!!
Love this song! Love MSG! Also one of my favorites is Love Is Not A Game!!! Sometime when I listen to this tape I think “am I the only one in the world listening to these guys…” well now I know it’s a least me and you Burch😊😊
Regarding Burch's comment, I am always fascinated with people who say the "fought with their spouses" a lot during their first years together, or half their lives. It says a lot about the parties involved if they stuck it out. I generally feel if a relationship is that toxic (my opinion only) I would be gone! But obviously the people involved saw something more, or something past that initial aggression. Respect.
I'm with you 💯 percent. MSG with Robin McCauley put out an album in 1987 called, "Perfect Timing." The album is a masterpiece. Every song is killer. Unfortunately, that was the same year the eponymous Whitesnake album came out. So this album and band didn't get the recognition it might have otherwise gotten. We'll never know. For me, the song on that album that still resonatrs with me today is, "I Don't Wanna Lose." But I can still play that whole album through and sing along with it. Amazing songs. Also, yeah he's still killing it today with Black Swan. Reb Beach from Winger and Jeff Pilson from Dokken/Foreigner/End Machine is on there too. Killer band with killer songs and his singing is exactly as it haa always been. Raspy and melodic.
It's interesting, MSG used to stand for Michael Schenker Group as Michael founded it when he left UFO. Then when McCauley joined the group the M became McCauley.
I remember the Michael Schenker Group with Robin McCauley on vocals, but I had never heard of the McCauley Schenker Group until now. Great song. The dude with the acoustic guitar that left the girl looked a little like Kurt Cobain at first look. Hope your vertigo is better. 🙏🙌✌️
FYI Michael Schenker Group was founded in 1979 and disbanded at the end of 1983. Michael Schenker formed McCauley Schenker Group in 1986 when Robin McCauley joined him for the first time. Both groups are known as MSG which can be confusing considering that currently Michael Schenker Group has Robin McCauley as the lead singer 😂
Michael Schenker (guitar) bailed on U.F.O. and formed Michael Schenker Group (M.S.G.) which debuted in 1981... However, Michael Schenker struggled to keep a line-up together and had issues w/ alcohol as well... In 1986, Michael Schenker and vocalist Robin McAuley joined forces to form a new M.S.G. as McAuley Schenker Group and they debuted in 1987 w/ 'Perfect timing'... followed by 'Save yourself' in 1989 and a self-titled album in 1991... Unfortunately, 90's grunge decimated their career. After a 1992 'Unplugged' album, Robin McAuley left the band to get married and quit the music business for a while... effectively ending the band. Michael Schenker reunited w/ U.F.O. for the album 'Walk on water'... in 1995, but the same old issues broke them apart. Michael Schenker came back to record 2 more U.F.O. albums before leaving for good in 2003 and was replaced by guitarist Vinnie Moore. Michael Schenker has been actively touring and Robin McAuley has been performing again w/ him on part-time basis.
Michael did two albums of covers with Davey Pattison called Schenker Pattison Summit The Endless Jam and The Endless Jam Continues. “A Whiter Shade Of Pale” is AWESOME! Many other great covers also.
That must be Rocky Newton there, and he wrote 'Bad Boys' on the 'Save Yourself' album (1989). Great to see this again, used to have the album on cassette back in the day. I thought it was the greatest thing I'd heard since Gary Moore and G-Force. Every track a winner. Robin has great pipes, and Michael of course is a god, nobody like him. One time in Grantham, England, must have been 1998/1999, Rocky sat in the Wetherspoons pub and nobody bothered him. He used to coach bands in the town.
MSG!!?? Well you got my attention! Big fan of early UFO and early SCORPIONS. Never heard of this tune. Was too stuck on the first album. CRY FOR THE NATION, VICTIM OF ILLUSION, LOST HORIZONS and so forth. Seen the Barden reunion and The Unforgiven Tour and a McAuley your as well. Oops nevermind, I have heard this 😊 NICE! Can't keep all his singers straight. Graham Bonnet was one! Biggest radio hit???? Not in Oregon. ON AND ON and most of the first album even INTO THE ARENA! Thanks Boxes! Great Channel!! Peace 🕊️☮️♾️😎
You guys are great and it's weird how you pick practically evert song, that I would have chosen, including the same exact wedding song, by Stryper..."I believe in you"...that really blew my mind...it's like we have the same musical mind...it's crazy.
I try to never go to sleep angry or fighting with a loved one. Michael is my favorite guitarist. Robin always complimented his guitar melodies. Robin his the best singer he had even though the songs were more commercial than his usual songs. I had the pleasure of meeting Michael when he was on the UFO Walk on Water tour. He was a really nice guy to me. He signed my Thank You cd. Now you need to have her listen to Love to Love.
Robin isn't in the band these days, but it's still called MSG, the Michael Schenker Group. Loved them when Robin was still in the band!!! Also, my ex and mine's song was Bad English's When I see you smile. Since we split I ain't been able to listen to it.
It’ll be 38 years this year for my wife and I. We didn’t pick “our song” until long after we married. For us it was a song called When I’m With You by a Canadian band named Sheriff. Interestingly that song never hit it big until long after the band had broken up.
I noticed a bit of strain in Burch's voice when he mentioned 35 years, lol I never knew McAuley Schenker Group as MSG, Just know MSG as Monosodium Glutamate With the music and clothing and hair, it has 1980's written all over it.
Burch, Regarding Casey Kasim of AT40 fame .... Just an interesting nugget of information, his son Mike is now a radio DJ of my home country Singapore. He's pretty funny DJ. Cheers, KC Lee/Singapore
Michael says that he has not listened to music in 50+ years. Any music that he has heard from other artists he has only heard in passing on the radio in a cab or in a store or something of that nature. Pretty crazy but that’s what he’s said for years. He’s one of rock music/guitarists earliest influences. EVH among many others is known for “borrowing” a few of Michael’s riffs (well documented).
Schenker will always be my favorite axe man (the mad axe man). I’ve seen him several times over the years and got to meet him. I saw Robin Mcauley with msg when they opened for Rush in late 80s. The rush fans were jerks and BOOED MSG. Blah Robin is my favorite vocalist for him followed by Graham Bonnet. I got to see Robin and all of his other vocalists on the Schenkerfest tour. Robins solo stuff is great too! You are right on the money in that he sounds the same now.
Sent this song to my GF in 90 after we broke up, For all the times I screwed up. I did not do anything bad, just did not know how to show emotions. We did not end up together.
Never saw this Video, but it's so similar to Bon Jovi's Living In Sin with the black&white. Musically though, there's a big difference between Schenker's more European style of writing to a lot of the Power Ballads in the US at the time. Cool.

That's a great song but I would say that "Gimme your love" was their biggest song. I believe "Gimme your love" charted to #40 and "Anytime" charted to #69. Very underrated band. Should have been bigger.
I liie this song very much, though I do prefer the early stuff and some of the later stuff. But they had some truly fine songs together. But perhaps she is talking bout the song "Time" or the Far Corporation "Stairway to Heaven" cover, which was somewhat of a hit.
When me and my ex-wife were married years ago, I should’ve got the picture when our wedding song and reception she was any man of mine. I should Shania Twain for the first song that we danced to. Lol that should’ve set up 1 million red flag right there.
I don't know if you'll get this but, I'd like to see you guys do Queensryche, Take Hold of the Flame,live Japan, 84 video, please. And perhaps Lynch Mob's 21st Century Man, or AON WITH TERRY ILIOUS AND LYNCH, DEAD OR ALIVE. MSG WAS KILLER,,,Loved Michael when he was in the original Scorpions line up,,,,,before Uli John Roth, right before he Michael, went to UFO with Phil Mogg,,, Have a great day and I hope they can help you with that crap vertigo,,,my mom had it, and a friend has it as well,,,hope you feel better. Thanks 😊
Now not knocking what Your song selection was but I would have choosen something like Eric Clapton - Hello Old Friend (1976). I did give thumbs up good vid !
Great song!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 One of those songs back when it was new(er), that lots of people liked, but had no idea who did it. Thanks for reacting to a song that doesn't get enough attention.🤘😎 "Nightmare " is another good one from M.S.G. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fUDX4-lk74s.htmlsi=5RI2qE4Sp2vFTZvu
