1967/ 1976
Built to Destroy is the fourth album by the Michael Schenker Group (MSG). Gary Barden returned to the group on vocals following the departure of Graham Bonnet amidst tensions with Michael Schenker.

I've the US mix that is a worldwide version except for U.K. and Japan with diverse order of songs (and "Walk the Stage" is renamed "Rock Will Never Die") and "Still Love That Little Devil" is sung by Derek St. Holmes. The style is a typical 80's Hard Rock with relaxing feelings and sounds, also because the guitar is supported by keyboards. The songs are technicals for the style and the magic is all present due to the fact, also, that the songs are aged very well.

Probably "built To Destroy" is not a masterpiece but the magic, the feelings and other factors tell me that "Built To Destroy" is still one of the best examples of 80's Hard Rock.
