Has anyone here been touched by the genius of UFO, the UK band who were totally on fire between 1974-1978...and were on the verge of making the big time in the US when Michael Schenker, their teenage prodigy guitarist, went mad...and it all went horribly wrong?
The three Ron Nevison-produced albums in particular - "Lights Out", "Obsession" and the live album "Strangers in the Night" - are three of the best albums of the 1970s, I reckon. Schenker was such a spectacular guitarist - and it's a tragedy that he didn't go on to become as rated or as successful as, say, Eddie Van Halen or any of the other inferior guitarists who went on to make it big in the 80s.
