Review Score:

(6/10)
The closing days of UFO's musical genius.
Let me say this, THIS band rocks and has been a big part of my life since listening to LIGHTS OUT back in about 77 0r 78.
I've listened to just about everything they done through-out the years, and have had and still do have a lot of pleasure doing so.
I remember seeing them back with Ozzy in the old Boston Garden as the opening act when this album came out.
As a big fan this is far from there best.
lets start with track by track.

1. Kicks ass sounds good to my ears, even has a taste of the old days mixed in there (i've always liked brass in rock n roll, gives it an extra punch)i give it an A

2. A cover of an oldies song, pretty cool but in my mind they didnt need to rework this number or any other for that matter.I'll give it a C

3. A big time ballad which UFO does beautifully as always.
Phil has a way of putting ballads across that i haven't found in
an other rock singer.An A in my book.

4.A cool rocker thats O.K. there for i'll give it a rateing of a C.

5.Same as the one above C.

6.Same as the one above C.

7. This song somehow makes me want to sing a long every time i hear it, there for i'll at lest throw it a B.

8. Another one of Phils great ballads always reminds me of my girlfrinds back in the teenage years / A, thats the rateing on this number.

9. Same as the above tracks # 4,5,6, another C

10. Yet another C on this CD.

11. Now this song sounds like it should've never even been recorded.
What a mess, never play this track if you want to show off some UFO.

So do you see what i mean folks, it's basically just filler tracks... to many C's.

UFO is a great band and there's a lot more to go buy then this.
But if you love the band the way i do, you'd own it.

LONG LIVE REAL ROCK n ROLL!!!
