Did Michael Schenker Just Release A Total Cash Grab? 2012
from Classic Metal Show · host The CMS Network
Is this really what happens to rock legends? We took a track-by-track listen to the brand new acoustic project from Michael Schenker and Gary Barden, and it raised a lot of painful questions. From tracks that sound like bad Renaissance Fair music to straight-up copying 80s pop hits note-for-note, fans are left wondering if this is a genuine creative shift or just a lazy studio cash grab. Something about this entire release feels incredibly off, and even Schenker’s most die-hard collectors are pushing back hard.CURIOUS FOR MORE?
