Media: Audio CD

Tracks:

excellent live recording from a classic band
So this version adds five more live tracks from the 1983 show which sound great. I have the original "headstone" and it has more studio tracks from ufo related bands and half of the live show featured on this version. Thankfully the band reformed a few years later; which is why the "headstone" album cover hand is not carving a date into the headstone on the cover. Ufo lives on and that is a great thing, and no there's tons of great live shows from their career; and this is a good one to own. The songs are mainly from their 'making contact' era with a few songs from earlier albums. 'electric phase" and 'no place to run" (recorded 1979 released 1980) and 'mystery train" are all from the seventies era and sound great when played by the then current 1983 lineup. If you enjoy hard rock live then this is a good one to get however I would start with the universally critically acclaimed 1978 release 'strangers in the night" first and then grab this one. .


A lost gem !!
It was originally released in vinyl in 1983 as a swan song for the band containing best of as well as family, friends tracks (Scorpions , Whitesnake Etc. definitly a great cd to add to your UFO collection , contains live recording from the making contact tour. . . . ) on sides 1-3 , with side four containing 5 live tracks from this recording. Now this is only the live show with 6 more songs added, very good recording and great performance from the band we grew to love.
