Bio:

UFO are an English Hard rock band that was formed in 1969.UFO became a transitional group between early hard rock and heavy metal and the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. UFO were ranked No. 84 on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock"Singer Phil Mogg, guitarist Mick Bolton, bassist Pete Way, and drummer Andy Parker formed the band in August 1969. Originally taking the name Hocus Pocus, the group changed their name in October 1969 to UFO in honour of the London club where they were spotted by Noel Moore, who signed them to Beacon Records label, which was headed by Antiguan-born Milton Samuel. Their eponymously titled first album debuted in 1970 and was a typical example of early hard rock including a heavy version of the Eddie Cochran's classic "C'mon Everybody". Both UFO 1 and its follow-up UFO 2: Flying, were successful in Japan (especially the single "C'mon Everybody" which became a huge hit there) and Germany (the song "Boogie For George," also from the first album, reached No. 30 in German singles charts as well as "Prince Kajuku" from Flying reached No. 26), but generated poor interest in Britain and America. Consequently, their third effort, Live (later re-issued as UFO Lands In Tokyo), was originally only released in Japan in 1971.Part of UFO's early work was strongly influenced by space rock (their second album, including a 26-minute title track and a 19-minute-long opus "Star Storm", was subtitled One Hour Space Rock) that was modestly popular at the time, but the band soon realised the style was somewhat limited. In January 1972, Mick Bolton left the group, and UFO set out to find a guitarist who could provide the band with a more standard rock sound.

Album:

Lights Out is the sixth studio album by the British rock band UFO, released in May and also on 11 October 1977 (see 1977 in music). All songs are band originals except for "Alone Again Or" which is a cover of a song by the band Love. Reaching #23 on the Billboard Hot 100, it remains the band's highest charting album in the United States.The album was UFO's first to feature lush string arrangements alongside more complex song structures than their previous albums. Producer Ron Nevison brought in Alan McMillan to handle the string and horn arrangements. The most notable song to feature the orchestral coloring was "Love to Love".In 1994, a CD comprising this album and No Heavy Petting was released by BGO Records. 2008 EMI's remastered edition includes 4 live bonus tracks, recorded at The Roundhouse, London. The album cover erroneously states that these tracks were recorded in 1976, but the correct year is 1977. EMI did correct the writing credits, with Paul Raymond finally being credited for his contributions.The title track and "Love to Love" were featured in the 1999 movie Detroit Rock City. "Love to Love" was also covered by Djali Zwan for the 2002 movie Spun and by Europe for their 2008 live album Almost Unplugged.Kerrang! magazine listed the album at No. 28 among the "100 Greatest Heavy Metal Albums of All Time".Steve Harris - primary songwriter, founder, leader and bassist of British heavy metal band Iron Maiden - calls "Love to Love" his favourite song.

Album:

Phenomenon is the third studio album by the British rock band UFO, released in May 1974.This was their third studio album and their debut on Chrysalis. UFO largely left their blues-based "space rock" sound behind, in part due to the presence of their new guitarist, German 19-year-old Michael Schenker. The album was produced by Leo Lyons, bass guitarist of British rock group Ten Years After. All tracks were recorded at Morgan Studios in London. The original cover design and photos were produced by Hipgnosis.It was remastered at Sound Recording Technology, Cambridge, in 1994.The British heavy metal band Iron Maiden performed a cover of "Doctor Doctor" when Blaze Bayley was with the band as their vocalist. Iron Maiden's cover version is included in "Lord of the Flies" single and also in the Eddie's Archive boxed set on the "Best of the B-Sides" collection.All tracks written by Michael Schenker and Phil Mogg, except where noted.

Album:

Force It is the fourth studio album by the British rock band UFO, released in 1975. It became their first album to chart in the United States.The album was produced by Ten Years After bass player Leo Lyons. Another Ten Years After member, Chick Churchill, played keyboards, the first use of that instrument on a UFO record.The CD reissue was remastered at Sound Recording Technology, Cambridge in 1994. The somewhat controversial original cover was designed by Hipgnosis, as were almost all other UFO albums of the 1970s. The nudity on the cover verged on breaching decency standards and the genders of the couple in the bathtub were not known for several years. The models were later revealed to be Genesis P-Orridge and his girlfriend Cosey Fanni Tutti, both later of the influential industrial band Throbbing Gristle.The artwork was softened for the initial US release, making the couple in the bathtub transparent. The cover is a pun - there are multiple taps (British English) or "faucets" (US English) in the picture, which is a play on the album's title.

UFO were ranked No. 84 on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock"Singer Phil Mogg, guitarist Mick Bolton, bassist Pete Way, and drummer Andy Parker formed the band in August 1969.

In January 1972, Mick Bolton left the group, and UFO set out to find a guitarist who could provide the band with a more standard rock sound.

Album:

Originally formed in 1969, British rock legends have been rocking for nearly 50 years. With a brief hiatus or two, UFO have released 21 studio albums and some classic live sets along the way. This album is a much touted covers set sees many classic tracks given their take.Founder bassist Pete Way left the band a few years ago, and the band are famous for featuring guitar legend Michael Schenker on more than one occasion, as well as for a long string of wonderful and essential albums. The live album Strangers In The Night is pretty bloody good too.Alongside mainstay and vocalist Phil Mogg are long time drummer Andy Parker and keyboard player/guitarist Paul Raymond, guitarist Vinnie Moore (who joined in 2003) and bassist Rob De Luca (since 2012). This album also gives a good nod to some of the band’s roots.The album opens up with the Yardbirds’ ‘Heartful Of Soul’; Mogg’s vocals are still slick, solid, powerful, more than making up any (minor) loss of range. This song sounds just wonderful by UFO.‘Break On Through (To The Other Side)’ is a solid cover, but I was never a Doors fan. The rich keyboards are appropriately turned up in the mix here, adding to the authenticity. Like the song or not, Mogg has the swagger.The Mad Seasons’ ‘River Of Deceit’ is a slower number and a nice change of pace, although it really isn’t in keeping with the UFO vibe.A move in the West Coast and Blues directions sees UFO tackle Steppenwolf’s ‘The Pusher’. Again not in keeping with what you associate with UFO but it is a better choice, and an excellent (and true) version of a great song.John Mellencamp’s ‘Paper In Fire’ is real UFO and it rocks. Some nice guitar touches rather than shred reliance make for a solid listen. ‘Rock Candy’, a track most will (or should) know, is a chunkier number given some great edges here. This one would fit in the live set smoothly. Another song right up the UFO street is Mountain’s ‘Mississippi Queen’, an earthy and honest rocker with blues tinges.A much covered song, Bill Withers’ ‘Ain’t No Sunshine’, suits UFO’s bluesier side well, and it’s smooth, but I’m not sure about Mogg’s vocals here; not that the range is an issue (it isn’t), he’s trying to something with his voice to suit the song that doesn’t come over so well.‘Honey-Bee’ is a good solid deep number that has a dark edge, Mogg and crew do a fine job here. ‘Too Rolling Stoned’ – now we’re talking! A classic Robin Trower track that totally rocks and UFO do total justice too. The funky edge to Moore’s guitar fits perfectly. Likewise with the blues of ZZ Top’s ‘Just Got Paid’. Love it beginning to end.The album closes with ‘It’s My Life’, which sees the whole band shine.Some tracks work so much better than others, yes there are some strange choices but you’ll get that with any such album. It does sound like they had fun doing it.Part of me hopes this is just a stop-gap until the next studio album, as new UFO albums do tend to be rather good (with or without Pete Way), but it’s a damn fine listen that will be enjoyed.

Bio:

UFO are an English Hard rock band that was formed in 1969.UFO became a transitional group between early hard rock and heavy metal and the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. UFO were ranked No. 84 on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock"Singer Phil Mogg, guitarist Mick Bolton, bassist Pete Way, and drummer Andy Parker formed the band in August 1969. Originally taking the name Hocus Pocus, the group changed their name in October 1969 to UFO in honour of the London club where they were spotted by Noel Moore, who signed them to Beacon Records label, which was headed by Antiguan-born Milton Samuel. Their eponymously titled first album debuted in 1970 and was a typical example of early hard rock including a heavy version of the Eddie Cochran's classic "C'mon Everybody". Both UFO 1 and its follow-up UFO 2: Flying, were successful in Japan (especially the single "C'mon Everybody" which became a huge hit there) and Germany (the song "Boogie For George," also from the first album, reached No. 30 in German singles charts as well as "Prince Kajuku" from Flying reached No. 26), but generated poor interest in Britain and America. Consequently, their third effort, Live (later re-issued as UFO Lands In Tokyo), was originally only released in Japan in 1971.Part of UFO's early work was strongly influenced by space rock (their second album, including a 26-minute title track and a 19-minute-long opus "Star Storm", was subtitled One Hour Space Rock) that was modestly popular at the time, but the band soon realised the style was somewhat limited. In January 1972, Mick Bolton left the group, and UFO set out to find a guitarist who could provide the band with a more standard rock sound.

Album:

Cherry Red / Hear No Evil are releasing tomorrow a digitally remastered 2-CD set featuring UFO albums ‘High Stakes & Dangerous Men‘ and ‘Lights Out In Tokyo‘. UFO’s 13th studio album, 1992’s ‘High Stakes & Dangerous Men’, was their first record in ten years to feature bassist and founder member Pete Way. Fronted by Phil Mogg, the only band member to feature in every line-up of UFO’s 50 plus year career, the line-up was completed by excellent guitarist Laurence Archer (Grand Slam, Wild Horses) and drummer Clive Edwards (Uli Jon Roth, Bernie Marsden). Although this was the sole UFO album that the guitarist and drummer would appear on, Archer and Edwards had the musical chops and rock pedigree.Disc 2 here is ‘Lights Out In Tokyo’, recorded on 20th June 1992 at Club Citta in Tokyo, and airing a healthy selection from their latest opus plus a host of classics ‘High Stakes & Dangerous Men’ is one of UFO’s best and one of the most overlooked. So, why has it been forgotten? It’s simply that it spent so long out of print. Luckily Cherry Red saw fit to champion this “lost classic” in 2022 with a long overdue reissue, and by coupling it with the brilliant ‘Lights Out In Tokyo’ live set – another release long AWOL – sought to shine a light on this brilliant but short phase in UFO’s long history.The body of work released by UFO’s second incarnation – featuring the now legendary Michael Schenker on guitar – has inevitably overshadowed the rest of their catalogue. The run of releases between 1974’s ‘Phenomena’ and 1979’s career-defining live album ‘Strangers In The Night’ represents a musical CV that would make any rock band proud, but there is so much more to UFO than those “glory years”.They released enjoyable albums throughout the ’80s, and you’ll even find some particularly solid stuff into the twenty first century featuring guitarist Vinnie Moore, but in terms of “buried treasure”, it’s their ‘High Stakes &Dangerous Men’ that most deserves a re-appraisal.It’s unique in UFO’s history in that its the only studio album to feature ex-Wild Horses men Laurence Archer (guitar) and Clive Edwards (drums), and on the bulk of the release, these classic rock veterans really add a genuine energy to the band’s sound.Most importantly though, it contains more than its share of solid songwriting, and a few vocals from Phil Mogg that – although sounding a little more mature – could rival his best.Originally released in February ’92, ‘High Stakes & Dangerous Men’ received positive reviews from some corners of the rock press, but it’s timing couldn’t have been more unfortunate. The alternative/grunge tidal wave had started to roll with a huge momentum at the end of the previous year, and throughout 1992 it would continue to change everything.At the point that UFO should’ve been shifting units, their solid, dependable hard rock was the sound of yesterday’s men, and even a last minute piece of advice to re-title the album from ‘High Stakes & Desperate Men’ wouldn’t make it seem any edgier or vital in the eyes of many casual record buyers.There’s always time to catch up with forgotten gems, though; good music has no genuine sell by date, and there are at least six tracks on the album that stand up with the very best UFO fare.In terms of instant highlights, the moody and semi-bluesy ‘Back Door Man’ is a killer track. Opening with a grubby riff that could challenge Tangier, Great White or any of the era’s more blues influenced, big haired rockers, UFO show how they were never just a straight up, simple band and with Archer dropping in some massive riffs, they certainly weren’t keen to give the new boy a back seat. Mogg takes an angst ridden lyric and runs with it, almost as if it’s something he’s been singing for decades, and there’s plenty within his velvety tones that calls back to the band’s formative years, which is enough for even the most casual fan to find a musical affinity.Similarly, ‘Ain’t Life Sweet’ latches onto a bluesy core – a tone that’s a perfect fit for Archer – but cranks the gears to create a hard rock/blues rock hybrid that sounds like UFO tackling Pat Travers. Its descending riffs during a taut but brief chorus create a simple hook; Clive’s drums rattle out a solid rhythm and Mogg sounds like he’s in his element, grabbing the opportunity to perform a little more aggressively with a real relish.‘Borderline’ captures a far more sophisticated UFO. A side step from some of their boogie laden hard rock, it boasts an intro where atmospheric slide guitar and soulful vocals owe more to bits of Richie Sambora’s ‘Stranger In This Town’ solo release, before branching off into some punchy hard rock where Archer dominates, but the whole band appear to be pulling their weight. Mogg’s vocals are among his finest this time out, and there are a few great moments where Pete Way’s bass punches through the main riff, showing how the much-missed musician was able to have a huge presence without relying on anything too flashy.Way leads the charge into ‘Burnin’ Fire’ with a pumping bass rhythm that sounds like a combination of peak Foghat and early Saxon, before the rest of the number settles into a stodgy but enjoyable rocker that sounds like the ultimate throwback to the ‘Force It’ days. A few female backing vocals lift everything in a way that was fashionable in classic rock circles at the time (not a million miles away from those on the Quireboys debut and The Black Crowes’ ‘Southern Harmony’), but the core of the track is pure UFO, with Mogg latching onto a rootsy vocal, and Archer eventually springing into life via a string-bent lead and busy closing salvo. In terms of the band really rocking out, it’s a sure fire winner.Another standout, ‘Primed For Time’ features a huge stomp from the rhythm section, very much tapping into some of the pre-grunge, big haired rock of the not too distant past, augmented by Archer, clearly seizing the opportunity to throw out some semi-bluesy fills against a solid riff. A great riff and even better chorus would be enough to secure this as a forgotten classic, but Archer’s featured solo is staggering. It may well be a little more metal oriented than some UFO fans would expect, but during the number’s second half, he launches into a couple of lead breaks that straddle edginess and melody, much in the way that John Sykes had given Thin Lizzy a much needed kick back in ’83.Looking between the slight bombast, though, there’s plenty that calls back to 70s UFO too, especially in the way Mogg latches onto a natural vocal that could easily sit alongside ‘Only You Can Rock Me’ or ‘Rock Bottom’. He sounds a little older in places, but still retains those stately and confident tones long associated with his best recordings.The opening of ‘Revolution’ features a cheeky nod to ‘Cherry’ in its intro via a flurry of muted notes and subtle melodicism, but quickly blossoms into something more of its own, when Clive throws out some massive drum sounds and kicks the band into a mid tempo groove. As the verse unfolds, there are traces of solid rockers like and ‘Shoot Shoot’ and ‘Only You Can Rock Me’ but thanks to a harder guitar sound and more natural production it sounds more 90s, and a few busier moments definitely hint at a line-up that’s keen to put their own stamp on the UFO sound. With another busy solo and some effective grinding effects during the fade, it’s often Archer who dominates again, but since his playing somewhere near a career best here, it’s certainly not a complaint.Slowing down a little, ‘Don’t Want To Lose You’ works around a really cheesy, almost calypso-like rhythm. Initially, it doesn’t sound like it’ll be very good. Luckily, these slightly misjusdged sounds are balanced out by chunky riff on the chorus – far more in keeping with classic UFO – allowing Mogg to hit upon a much more confident vocal. With its bright sound and female backing vocals, though, it sounds far too much like an 80s throwback, though – certainly not in keeping with what a lot of other rock bands were doing at the time. There’s some nice guitar playing from Archer and a solid bass sound.Utilising the brighter guitar sound and a few AOR elements again, ‘Love Deadly Love’ is great. Via an intro borrowed from Bob Seger, Mogg quickly latches onto a great, slightly bluesy vocal before everything explodes into a classic rocker where jagged guitars reign. The hard, muted sound very much calls back to the 70s glory years, even if a sharp piano gives away the slightly more modern recording. It doesn’t pretend to be smart; the main aim here is to whip the audience into excitement – a job it does very effectively – and via an old school “sha-la-la” hook and effortless guitar solo, it updates the core of the ‘Obsession’ era with ease.The extremely hard edged ‘Running Up The Highway’ pushes new drummer Clive further into the spotlight on a verse that almost drops into something that sounds like an early AC/DC pastiche. A few more classic sounding, distinctly UFO-centric riffs fill the pre-chorus and main hook, and in lots of ways, the stodgy groove and hard sound captures the band on auto-pilot, but it doesn’t matter – it sounds brilliant with the volume cranked, and as soon would be evident, it would sound even better live.At the tail end of an (almost) filler free album, ‘Let The Good Times Roll’ cuts loose with a mid tempo workout that flaunts a punchy bass against a hard ringing guitar, eventually blossoming into a tune that wouldn’t sound entirely out of place on ‘Force It’ or ‘No Heavy Petting’. Naturally, that means it doesn’t yield any big surprises for even the most casual UFO fan, but with Mogg in great shape the song rocks.Released a couple of years earlier – or perhaps a few years later in an internet filled world, where the word of mouth between classic rock fans really helped to keep things moving – ‘High Stakes & Dangerous Men’ is the kind of long player that could have been massive.As it is, it’s place in history as one of the “lesser” UFO albums seems a little unfair. If you’ve never heard it, or perhaps haven’t heard it in a long time, it’s certainly worth seeking out. In terms of offering listeners a solid set of hard rock songs, it’s terrific.Recorded on the ‘High Stakes’ tour, ‘Lights Out In Tokyo’ is an excellent live document. Not so much in that the set list is brilliant, but moreover that it presents UFO with a proper “live” tone. ‘Strangers In The Night’ is undoubtedly a classic, but much like Thin Lizzy’s ‘Live & Dangerous’ it sometimes has too much of a perfect and almost sanitised feel. There’s no such bother here.Right from the opening bars of the then new ‘Running Up The Highway’, the band’s sense of punch is further augmented by a little echo – most notably on the drums, but also giving Archer’s guitar work an extra gritty feel.It’s here, too, that Archer’s slightly more metallic tendencies get to present themselves, in a way that makes this line up of UFO sound more energised than any of their predecessors. Mogg, of course, sounds as you’d expect, filling spaces with a blues tinged hard rock tone that’s almost indistinguishable from a decade previously.The also new ‘Borderline’ and ‘Back Door Man’ already sound like set fixtures, and the latter especially really allows the band to exercise some particularly chunky grooves throughout, on a performance that runs rings around its studio counterpart.And if these can be seen to present the early ’90s UFO with all guns blazing, a well curated run of genuine classics are on hand to thrill fans even more. ‘Lights Out’ comes across particularly aggressively, with Archer really putting his stamp on the band via a more shrill guitar tone and a couple of especially edgy solos; ‘Cherry’ mostly retains its older melodic charm, but again, there’s enough here to differentiate the performance from any 70s live recordings – most notable in a harder drum sound, but Mogg, too, seems to be a little more upfront performance-wise, and the evergreen ‘Love To Love’ is afforded an eight minute extended workout where some particularly 80s keys do battle with a few howling guitars, all of which are respectful to UFO’s past while sounding a little more contemporary for the time, thanks to a tougher approach.The evergreen ‘Only You Can Rock Me’ features an intro that sounds as if its been beamed in from the end of a corridor, but the arrival of an especially loud drum sets everything straight, and Mogg performs as if he still believes in the material and its great to hear the Japanese fans singing with enthusiasm.Set regular ‘Rock Bottom’ is put through its paces across a gruelling ten minutes, and even with a slightly faster tempo and heavier sound, still sounds like a genuine classic, and hits ‘Doctor Doctor’ and ‘Shoot Shoot’ flesh out everything with reliable material which, at this stage, still packs a massive punch.There are a vast number of UFO live recordings out there, official, semi-official or otherwise, and ‘Strangers’ will always be the definitive, but ‘Lights Out In Tokyo’ is a superb document. It doesn’t matter where you drop the metaphorical needle before the encore; you’re guaranteed a great performance, and the energy within the brief union between Mogg / Way / Archer is amazing.Chances are, if you’re a massive UFO fan, you either bought these albums upon release (even with ‘Lights Out In Tokyo’ being notoriously hard to find) or tracked them down on the second hand market.However, if they still represent a gap in your collection, even if you’re the kind of casual fan who never made it much past their ’80s work, this reissue is essential. It’s worth picking up for the live disc alone. In supplying a superb snapshot of a classic band more than holding their own in both the studio and live environs, this double disc set supplies a vital look back.In terms of introducing people to a lesser remembered of UFO’s long history, it’s just as important. Whichever way you approach it, this two disc set belongs in any self-respecting fan’s collection.It’s a most welcome remastered reissue indeed.

In January 1972, Mick Bolton left the group, and UFO set out to find a guitarist who could provide the band with a more standard rock sound.

Album:

Legendary English hard rock band UFO finally gets its fifth studio album, No Heavy Petting, remastered and expanded for reissue in 2023. The 2-CD deluxe digipak edition features the remastered album and five bonus tracks on disc 1, plus the 1976 Roundhouse live set on disc 2.Stepping up from the rawer sound of Force It, the album was their first to feature a permanent keyboard player in the band and gave a nod to what was to come. The album includes a number of tracks that were to become staples of their live set for many years, including “Natural Thing” and “I’m A Loser”.”No Heavy Petting” is part of the UFO Michael Schenker years. The band also added a keyboardist Danny Peyronel providing a more melodious background. Yes, this album clearly is a precursor to more glamorous things to come like ‘Lights Out’ or ‘Obsession’ a few years later. The album also sets cornerstones as to how Hard Rock and early Heavy Metal ought to sound.You need to give Schenker a lot of credit here. The very precise riffs and solos on ”No Heavy Petting” are absolutely stellar, no doubt about it. Just listen to the one on ‘Can You Roll Her’. He even pulled songs not so strong like like ‘Reasons Love’ and ‘Highway Lady’ into the arena, simply because he adds these friggin’ solos that are just amazing.And his influence shows in all of the tracks on ”No Heavy Petting”. This combined with the excellent, high soaring vocals of Phil Mogg gets you a combination that you just cannot ignore.On this album there’s also the welcomed installment of keyboard player Danny Peyronel (formerly of the Heavy Metal Kids), whose talents made an immediate impact via the flourishes heard on album highlight ‘I’m a Loser,’the high-velocity, Deep Purple-inspired attack on ‘Can You Roll Her’, and the boogie-woogie-piano driven on the aforementioned ‘Highway Lady’, a song for which Peyronel received full songwriting credit.On top, they wrote one of the most amazing hard rock ballads of their career called ‘Belladonna’. Holy – Metal – Cow! Yes, you guessed right, ‘Belladonna’ is probably one that is never gonna be topped. Subtle references between the beautiful woman excelling in intrigues of the murderous kind and the poisonous plant of the same Italian name. Soft melody, powerful lyrics, just great.But, actually, powerful does not describe it. This one is hitting home, like too near to reality to be comfortable. The track was great back then, and still is the same today. A classic.Beyond these, all that was left was a pair of relative filler tracks, the first being bassist Pete Way’s nearly comatose plod-fest, ‘On With the Action’ and the second a throwaway cover of Frankie Miller’s “A Fool in Love” that suggested everyone involved had an urgent appointment at the local pub.But then you have the bonus tracks, all tracked at the same session and there’s a lot to enjoy.With its now classic artwork, once again crafted by those masters of abstract album covers, Hipgnosis, ”No Heavy Petting” is just another terrific UFO album. This new remaster is fantastic.

Bio:

UFO are an English Hard rock band that was formed in 1969.UFO became a transitional group between early hard rock and heavy metal and the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. UFO were ranked No. 84 on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock"Singer Phil Mogg, guitarist Mick Bolton, bassist Pete Way, and drummer Andy Parker formed the band in August 1969. Originally taking the name Hocus Pocus, the group changed their name in October 1969 to UFO in honour of the London club where they were spotted by Noel Moore, who signed them to Beacon Records label, which was headed by Antiguan-born Milton Samuel. Their eponymously titled first album debuted in 1970 and was a typical example of early hard rock including a heavy version of the Eddie Cochran's classic "C'mon Everybody". Both UFO 1 and its follow-up UFO 2: Flying, were successful in Japan (especially the single "C'mon Everybody" which became a huge hit there) and Germany (the song "Boogie For George," also from the first album, reached No. 30 in German singles charts as well as "Prince Kajuku" from Flying reached No. 26), but generated poor interest in Britain and America. Consequently, their third effort, Live (later re-issued as UFO Lands In Tokyo), was originally only released in Japan in 1971.Part of UFO's early work was strongly influenced by space rock (their second album, including a 26-minute title track and a 19-minute-long opus "Star Storm", was subtitled One Hour Space Rock) that was modestly popular at the time, but the band soon realised the style was somewhat limited. In January 1972, Mick Bolton left the group, and UFO set out to find a guitarist who could provide the band with a more standard rock sound.

Album:

Cleopatra Records will release the UFO album titled ”Walk On Water".Gorgeous, out-of-this-world reissue of the spectacular 1995 album from British classic rock masters, UFO!This, the 14th album from the band, marked the return of German guitar extraordinaire Michael Schenker as well as founding drummer Andy Parker and classic member Paul Raymond!Reissue features digitally remastered audio plus all new artwork!UFO are back! Phil Mogg (v) and Michael Schenker (g) actually got together again in 1995 and drummed up the "Lights Out" line-up with Pete Way (b), Andy Parker (d) and Paul Raymond (k,g) to record a comeback album. To represent what a miracle it is, they appropriately titled the product "Walk on Water".The listening impression is good, even if Mogg's characteristic voice has suffered somewhat over the years. Schenker riffs and solos in top form, the songs are great, the lyrics down-to-earth, the overall sound a bit too compressed, but powerful and transparent. My highlights are the opener "Self made Man" and the acoustic rocker "Dreaming of Summer". Except for Way's contribution "Knock", all new tracks are penned by Schenker / Mogg. After eight new songs and 42 minutes the glory is unfortunately already over... but not the CD: After that, there are two UFO classics in new recordings and three songs from the UFO environment (Mogg/Way, MSG, Paul Raymond Project), which should probably whet the appetite for the solo works of the band members.Walk on Water is the fourteenth album from the British hard rock band UFO, marking the return of German guitarist Michael Schenker to the band, as well as the returns of keyboardist Paul Raymond and founding drummer Andy Parker. The album did not chart. It was recorded at Rumbo Recorders in Canoga Park, California. It was released first and only in Japan on 14 April 1995 with 11 tracks and in 1997 in other countries with only 10 tracks. It has since been re-released on numerous occasions, with a variety of covers.

In January 1972, Mick Bolton left the group, and UFO set out to find a guitarist who could provide the band with a more standard rock sound.

Album:

Sharks is the sixteenth album by the British hard rock band UFO. It is the last album to feature longtime German lead guitarist Michael Schenker.This album sure was a surprise. It seemed like the band had finally self-destructed a couple of years ago onstage in Manchester, England when a drunken Michael Schenker stumbled around and made a fool of himself. He was barely able to play and eventually stormed offstage leaving the other members of the band dumbfounded. The rest of the tour was cancelled and it seemed that it was finally over. I had no idea that they were recording a new album until just a few months ago. They have always been one of my all-time favorite bands ever since I picked up their No Heavy Petting album back in 1976 just because I thought the cover was cool. That album and their subsequent classics, Lights Out, Obsession and one of the best live albums ever, Strangers In The Night, changed my attitude towards hard rock and heavy music and changed my life. Music could be rich and heavy with lots of guitar power chords but still be melodic, bluesy and have lots of feeling at the same time.There's a certain chemistry between the three remaining members of the classic line-up, Phil Mogg, Michael Schenker and Pete Way. Original drummer, Andy Parker, is no longer with the band and their current drummer is the veteran. Aynsley Dunbar. MSG (Michael Schenker Group) and even the Mogg-Way collaboration between Phil and Pete have never been able to quite capture the magic that happens when all three get together.This new album, Sharks, continues the legacy of U.F.O. very effectively with it's Michael Schenker trademark of chunky, riff driven songs and the classic, almost soulful singing style of Phil Mogg. No-one sounds like this band and they have a very unique, clever way of turning a somewhat simple rhythmic structure into a great song. Like every other U.F.O. album, every track on this album has a very distinct character and feel to it. The opening track, Outlaw Man features some slide guitar by Michael and then turns into a full blown U.F.O. rocker. Phil belts out vocal lines which are defiant in character and draws parallels between the aging outlaws of the wild west and the aging rock stars that they themselves are becoming. A typical, very charismatic and classic vocal delivery as only Phil Mogg can. Serenity features a slower trudging pace again with big fat power chord riffs and another classic U.F.O. chorus. Michael provides some great lead fills over the chorus which adds lots of warmth and melody. Shadow Dancer and Sea Of Faith are both uptempo songs with good catchy melodies and choruses.The track Someone's Gonna Have To Pay is certainly a highlight of this album. It has a slow pounding heavy beat that really reminds me of The Zoo by Michael's brother Rudolph's band, The Scorpions. It features a blusey style with lots of thick, hypnotic power chording to drive the song. Phil sings about the world's infatuation with nostalgia, especially the 60's, but only in the styles and fashions, not of the rebellious attitudes and even states that "The revolution's gone, there's no revolution song". Michael adds to the theme with some cool Wah-Wah soloing.I wish these guys would use Ron Nevison again to produce their albums. His touch of adding a little polish and energy to their sound is really missing. I'm not too thrilled with Michael's lead playing on this release either. On most tracks, he uses mainly the front pick-up on his guitar, giving a much weaker sound and his solos sound like he was just winging it. It's like he just went in and played something off the top of his head with very little thought or rehearsal. His playing is also very sloppy and more abstract with little of the preciseness and technical flair he usually known for. There's very little of the emotional and thematic lead style that has made this band's sound so unique.Other than a few minor complaints about production and some of the lead playing, this album has a classic U.F.O. sound to it and really takes me back to the No Heavy Petting and Force It albums. It's great to hear from these guys again and I hope another tour will follow. I saw them in 1985 when it was only Phil and Pete left from the original band. I'm still anxiously awaiting the chance to see them with Michael Schenker. We'll see what happens on the road this time!!!

Album:

We never have enough UFO, one of the most influential metal / hard rock bands of all time. CleoRecs is releasing this “One Night Lights Out ’77“, a vintage UFO concert recording captured at the legendary Agora Ballroom in Cleveland OH.There’s a lot of UFO live recordings, and all enjoyable. However, and while the sound quality isn’t perfect, the magic on “One Night Lights Out ’77” is that the set feels ‘really live’, showcasing a raw, rocking band at their peak, with line up of Phil Mogg / Michael Schenker / Pete Way / Andy Parker, and Paul Raymond.This is the tour in support of the band’s briliant album Lights Out, which not only featured the blockbuster title track but also “Too Hot To Handle,” “Gettin’ Ready,” “Love To Love”, and of course classics such as “Doctor Doctor”.
Only 10 tracks and 50+ minutes, the perfect running to enjoy this very good performance with an inspired Schenker that night.

Album:

Lights Out will be reissued on 2 February 2024 via Chrysalis Records.Iconic hard rockers UFO 1977’s album, “Lights Out“, is being reissued in a 2-disc Deluxe Edition, freshly remastered 2024. The recording is seen as UFO’s breakthrough record and was the group’s highest-charting album in the US, reaching number 23 on the Billboard 200. It was released in May 1977.”Lights Out” featured orchestral arrangements and a new line-up – Paul Raymond (keyboards and guitar) replaced keyboard player, Danny Peyronel – and was the first UFO album to be produced by Ron Nevison, who worked with Thin Lizzy and Led Zeppelin.The title track of the album was inspired by the Notting Hill riots of 1976 and the record closes with ‘Love to Love’, which Iron Maiden’s Steve Harris has said is his favorite song of all time.This 2024 remastered reissue sounds fabulous, and comes with three bonus tracks on CD 1, including a previously unreleased rough acoustic take of the song by Love, ‘Alone Again Or’, as well as an edit of ‘Too Hot To Handle’ and the seven-inch version of ‘Try Me.’CD 2 feature a newly-mixed recording of the first show on the Lights Out Tour at The Roundhouse, London, on 2 April 1977. The new mix of the concert is by Richard Whittaker and the album has been remastered from the original tape transfers by Rock Candy’s resident engineer Andy Pearce.
