The Michael Schenker Story Live is a live album by the hard rock band Michael Schenker Group, released in May 1997 through Michael Schenker's own record company.

This is a double-CD live album recorded during the March 1997 Japan tour. The recorded show was the last one of a series of 5 concerts and were all performed at the Nakano Sun Plaza in Tokyo on 19 March 1997. The concert lasted three hours and the setlist contains 30 songs. As its title tells, it covers the entire history of Michael Schenker musical career - from the Scorpions in 1969 to 1997.

The whole concert was filmed and released on VHS in 1999 and in 2005 on DVD with the title Live in Tokyo 1997. The DVD contains also footage from the Unforgiven World Tour of 2000.
