Review
After last year's In The Midst Of Beauty, the Michael Schenker/Gary Barden pairing proved that the magic was still there.

So what does one do to follow up the solid release? Well, you do something completely the different.
Gipsy Lady is a completely acoustic album that is all original material, unlike the album that MSG issued during the

Robin McAuley era which consisted of mostly classic stuff from UFO and MSG. Don't mistake this album with the acoustic

instrumental Thank You series that Schenker launched in the early 90's, although Gipsy Lady does feature two solid

instrumentals in "El Grande" and "The Journey".
Gipsy Lady will take a number of spins to sink in, but once it does watch out, you'll be in trace. Gipsy Lady showcases

a different side of both Michael Schenker and Gary Barden who kick out some brilliant acoustic jams. Barden delivers a

loose, smooth performance throughout the CD and Schenker once proves again that despite some set backs he's back in tip

top form.
Some of the standouts on Gipsy Lady are the opening track "Lost" (this song sets up the album brilliantly), "Fight For

Freedom" which has an audacious folk chorus that will have you tapping and singing along from the first listen. "Can't

Live On Love Alone" and "Hungry" feature some fantastic hooks and they both could be hit singles even in today's fickle

music business. And by far the biggest surprise is "Night Of The Stare", which is a hard rock's take on the tango.
If you're looking to expand your musical pallet then look no further than Gipsy Lady. This album will even have appeal

outside of the rock realm as it covers various cultural subgenres.

  4. You can always count on Great Guitar work with MSG/Schenker. Btw, I corrected the password. It had double spaces between Barden and Acoustic and after the - and Gipsy Lady. Now works! ;)

  9. @ MS, All you do is grab the new password (re-edited and fixed on front page), as the first one had double spaces after the word "Barden" and after the Dash "-" before "Gipsy"

    Shouldn't be a problem now.

  11. "(...) It had double spaces between Barden and Acoustic and after the - and Gipsy Lady (...)"

    The password is working now! Thanks!

    I pasted the one offered here to a .txt document and added the 2 extra empty spaces as mentioned above, then copied/pasted the new resulting pwd to the winrar pwd-box.

    :-)

    Now listening.
