MICHAEL SCHENKER SHARES “ONLY YOU CAN ROCK ME” — LISTEN SONG IS TAKEN FROM UPCOMING ALBUM MY YEARS WITH UFO Following the success of his first two singles “Mother Mary” featuring Slash and Erik Grönwall, and “Rock Bottom” featuring Kai Hansen, legendary guitarist Michael Schenker is set to release the third single “Only You Can Rock Me” from his highly anticipated new album My Years with UFO. LISTEN TO “ONLY YOU CAN ROCK ME.” This new single once again showcases an incredible lineup featuring Joey Tempest (Europe) on vocals, Roger Glover (Deep Purple) on bass, Derek Sherinian on keys, and Brian Tichy on drums. As we approach the album’s release, the anticipation builds for what’s set to be one of 2024’s most exciting rock records! Schenker’s new album My Years with UFO is a tribute to the golden years that saw British hard rock band UFO rise from an underground phenomenon to rock legends. Produced by Michael Schenker and Michael Voss, the new album marks the 50th anniversary of Schenker’s era with UFO, spanning from 1972 to 1978. The “German Wunderkind” was asked to join UFO at just 17 years old. In the following years, Michael Schenker secured his place as one of rock’s most influential creators by composing UFO’s most beloved tracks, including “Doctor Doctor,” “Rock Bottom,” “Lights Out,” “Love to Love” and many more. Although Michael Schenker’s era with UFO spanned only six years, his influence as a young songwriter and exceptional guitarist had already left a lasting mark on rock. During these meteoric years, the UFO albums Phenomenon, Force It, No Heavy Petting, Lights Out, Obsession, and the seminal live album Strangers in the Night were recorded, each contributing significantly to the genre. Strangers in the Night particularly stands out as one of the most influential live rock albums of all time and is still regarded as a cornerstone in any rock enthusiast’s collection. In this celebratory album, Michael Schenker presents 11 of UFO’s greatest hits from this magical era with an impressive lineup of guest stars. Joining Schenker on this journey are Derek Sherinian on keys; Brian Tichy on drums; and Barry Sparks on bass. The stellar roster of guest artists includes Axl Rose, Slash, Kai Hansen, Roger Glover, Joey Tempest, Biff Byford, Jeff Scott Soto, John Norum, Dee Snider, Joel Hoekstra, Joe Lynn Turner, Carmine Appice, Adrian Vandenberg, Michael Voss, Stephen Pearcy, and Erik Grönwall. This album is the introduction to an upcoming trilogy, as Michael Schenker has signed an exclusive three-album deal with earMUSIC, with additional albums to follow in 2025 and 2026. My Years with UFO will be released worldwide on September 20 via earMUSIC and is available for pre-order here. MY YEARS WITH UFO TRACK LISTING:
