The UFO Thread-Pete Way RIP

Martian Landscape might just edge out I'm A Loser for my favorite song on No Heavy Petting.

I absolutely love Martian Landscape. And Belladonna for that matter. It's my favorite album by them. I love Schenker on NHP. It's weird because it's the one album that doesn't have his distinctive tone, but his playing is ferocious.

That tone you hear in spades on Force It? Easily my favorite UFO album. I love the clean, stripped down, aggressive sound and production on that album. Not to mention the killer songs.

Exactly. His tone is a bit sinister on NHP, and it's really an outlier for him for the most part.

It's probably because we've been using it as a general UFO thread since the Listening Party ended. We were in the thread a little over a month ago.

Mate, there's certainly no harm in having 2 main UFO threads! 

[ProfessorPeart]

There's even a UFO thread over in the General forum but I was disappointed to find out it was not about the band.

We can change that!

Slew of live releases coming.

Many of these have already been released in one form or another.

[DTwwbwMP]

Absolutely LOVE the '74-'79 period of the band . I lost interest in UFO after that.

TAC will probably say he's already seen this, but a 1980 performance on Rockpalast was posted to YouTube 9 days ago.

If I want to watch some live UFO I go for this concert, I love it.  I purchased the CD/DVD.  Really like Chapman on this one.

I can't go there, but Lawrence Archer does a sick version of it on the Lights Out In Tokyo '92 release.

It's my favorite live performance from Chapman's era and it's in video! It has that looser and punchier feel from his era, but also some precision as in the Schenker's era. I just wish that the drums were higher in the mix. As audio recording quality goes, ironically, since the band was a falling apart at the time, I think Headstone is the better one and also has great performances, it just lacks that "one complete show" feel.

I would love to get the actual full show. Even the so-called full cd is not that show.

Another show that's in video is the 12/8/78 show in New Jersey. It's Paul Chapman's 5th show after Schenker left mid tour. Still has Paul Raymond in the band. Opening for Cheap Trick on this leg.

Cool, Tim, that one I didn't know!
This one I think it's really cool with Schenker, although also lasting around 30 minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNvtPYSejVc
There's any pro footage from the reunion shows?

Yeah, both of those contain some great footage for sure.
I posted this in the UFO Listening Party, but here's some Holy Grail footage..Fresno 8/9/78 right around the time they recorded the shows to be used for Strangers. Unfortunately the Rock Bottom instrumental section is missing. Watching Phil fuck up Hot n Ready and Paul Raymond just looking at him going WTF is hilarious.

The Chicago 95 show is a pretty good boot.
