Good Compilation of Early MSG

"Michael Schenker is a great guitarist - one of the best in hard rock/metal. That being said, MSG albums have always been somewhat hit or miss. This collection does good job of taking the best from the first four MSG albums. The only glaring omissions are Never Trust A Stranger(from MSG) and Samurai(from Assault Attack). For an introduction to MSG, this is an excellent choice. Also check out McAuley Schenker Group - excellent albums with some of the strongest songwriting of any albums with Schenker."

Definately a Master of Rock

"This is a good cross section of Michael Schenker's early solo work. Like everyone else I can argue the pro's and cons of which songs should be included and which should be omitted from any compilation. Personal taste I know but pop "Desert Song" in for "Dancer" and you've just about got the best of the first four albums in one hit. Great place then to start an MSG collection if you've just discovered the best heavy rock guitarist of them all."

A fine compilation of the work of a great guitarist

"I have been a big fan of Michael Schenker after hearing his work with the legendary UFO.I got this album a week back and since then have listened to it a number of times.This compilation features some of his best work with the MSG like Armed and ready,Cry for the nation,Assault attack and Into the arena.Highly recommended."
