... Has with "Hermann Rarebell", "Francis Buchholz" and ex-Rainbow frontman "Doogie White" an illustrious group of "old-timers" to gathered naturally vouch for a lot of quality and experience. The "Rock Temple" is completed by guitarist and keyboardist "Wayne Findlay" who was already with the likes of "Uli Jon Roth", "Gary Barden" or "Thin Lizzy" on stage. These "sensed" 200 years of rock history can be felt in each of the 12 songs. As where "Michael Schenker" has been instrumental in all albums, impresses "Spirit on a Mission" by delicate guitar work knows how to impress with their precision and dynamics. It "listens" to the album to which the protagonists play their instruments inside out, musically no weaknesses are there to recognize the songs are almost perfectly presented. Friends of guitar-oriented songs and licentious melodies come, as "Michael Schenker" usual on "Spirit on a Mission" their money's worth. To my highlights include the fast and rapid "Live and let live", "Vigilante Man", "Rock City", "Something of the Night" and "Restless Heart". Especially with the fast and rocking numbers can "Michael Schenker" and his boys from the "Rock Temple" fully convincing and provide an impressive way their class to the test.
My conclusion: "Spirit on a Mission" is the strongest output of "Rock Temple" and friends filigree guitar music should necessarily here get their money. Great musicians and skilful songwriting - to "Spirit of a mission" there is a purely technical fault it! But I forgive only 4 stars because I just do not have so fallen a few songs, but that's just due to my personal taste, and has nothing to do with the quality of the music!
