Michael Schenker released his new studio album called “My Years With UFO“, covering tracks he recorded with the legendary Hard Rock band. He invited many incredible artists to play with him and one of them was Axl Rose.
Now with the album released, you can hear the “Love to Love” version featuring the Guns N’ Roses vocalist Axl Rose. It’s really a unique thing because Axl rarely collaborated with other artists over the decades.
