MICHAEL SCHENKER’S TEMPLE OF ROCK - Bridge The Gap (02/12)

Pietro

Classic Rock today brings you a brand-new track from Michael Schenker’s Temple Of Rock – hear Where The Wild Winds Blow below.

It’s taken from upcoming album Bridge The Gap, which will be released on December 2, featuring his current band Temple Of Rock which includes vocalist Doogie White, guitarist/keyboardist Wayne Findlay, bassist Francis Buchholz and drummer Herman Rarebell. It’s the first time Schenker and fellow ex-Scorpions Buchholz and Rarebell have appeared on the same album since 1979′s Scorps release Lovedrive.

Bridge The Gap is described as “an album of 13 hard-hitting, adrenalin-fuelled melodic rock’n'roll songs that showcase Shenker’s distinctive and explosive guitar playing”.

Scots singer White, who co-wrote the record, says: “Michael and I had talked about recording an album after the tour of 2012. We never spoke about it again until January 2013, when he sent me seven ideas he’d been working on.

“I’d never really written with him before so I didn’t know how flexible he would be, writing-wise. So I recorded some vocal tracks as ideas, and when Michael heard them we were off and running. Within two weeks we were in the studio.”

Schenker himself adds: “I wanted to combine the old with the new; that’s why the album’s called Bridge The Gap. I always have some new, fresh sparks to share when I record a new album. I am inspired from within – it’s infinite like a kaleidoscope.”

But he says the title has an additional meaning: “Everything that’s currently going on in this world shows that people are desperate for change. We need to bridge the gap of poverty. There are too many innocent people getting killed in terrorist attacks. We need to leave all of this chaos behind us. We have to be strong. We have to continue moving forward, working together in a balanced way.”

Certain editions of Bridge The Gap will include bonus track Faith, with vocals by Don Dokken.

Le refrain est pas mal du tout, il va peut-être réussir à sortir un album assez correct.
Le line-up est largement plus bandant que celui de son dernier opus.

Bon par contre, c'est vraiment hallucinant comment ce mec continue d'aussi mal gérer sa carrière, tous ces changements de noms de groupe c'est ridicule.
