I was a big fan back in the day. And I still listen to my UFO LPs occasionally today. They were a great rock band in their time.
Any other Agon Love for UFO?
Was listening to UFO- (Phenomenon) today. Got me thinkin’
Obviously, musical taste is very personal but I am surprised this band is not more well know and appreciated. I’ve had a pretty extensive listening and music network for many decades and I’ve NEVER met anyone else that knows this band more than casually...let alone owns their music.
Yes, I know they have sold millions of albums and mine is an admittedly limited sample... I get that...but they are strangely missing from many’s list.
They have all of the elements of what make their genre successful ...starting with Phil Moog, an incredible lead/ voice...good songwriting (Spirited at times, but, not many lurid references just for the sake of it ; ), the occasional presence of Michael Schenker, they were a great live show, etc. etc.
Look, I don’t start a lot of threads like this..... But, it is shocking to me that this band is not more well known/popular. I feel that they are some of the very very best at what they did/do.
What are your thoughts/experience?
P.S. I truly feel that Strangers in the Night is one of the best live rock albums ever created. OMG Rock Bottom will burn the house down if you are not careful ; )
