Very nice - my brother got me into MSG ages ago. That video rules, but all I want to do right now is reach through the screen and flip his pickup selector to the neck position when he starts shredding.

I remember when he was with UFO and the Scorpions.

I saw him with MSG a bunch of times in the '80s, but I've never enjoyed seeing his as much as for the UFO "reunion" ("Walk on Water", which is actually a really good album) tour - they were just awesome...

I just can't believe how clean his chops are...he was really ahead of his time.

Man, that tone! That guy had the magic touch.

His tone is always awesome. It's definitely in his hands. Too bad he's a head case...

what happened to him anyways, never really got into him but this sounds nice indeed

He looks like a young Gary Busey. I've never listened to him before. Pretty cool.
