CD Description
Hard rock pioneers UFO are one of the UK’s most prolific and influential rock bands - their musical influence can be seen across a host of modern metal groups and during the course of nearly four decades they have built up an extremely loyal and dedicated fan base.

The latest stage of their album reissue campaign continues with Making Contact and Misdemeanour. The original albums have all been digitally remastered, now contain previously unreleased bonus material and are accompanied by 16-page booklets housing extensive liner notes, rare photos, press clippings and much more.


Customer Reviews

The Forgotten UFO4
I truly believe this UFO album deserves a lot more credit then it ever got. Unfortunately it is the forgotten UFO album . Sure , it is not Obsession or Lights Out but it is a very good album. If you are a UFO fan and never owned this cd , now is the time to get it .There is some great rock n' roll here . "When it's time to rock" , "Blinded by a lie" , "Diesel in the dust" (one of my all time favorite songs) are just a few . EMI did a great job with the remastering , the sound is outstanding and the packaging is top notch. Buy it , open it , crank it !

The end of an era4
While it may not be the first album that comes to mind when you think classic UFO albums, Making Contact is not as bad as some would have you believe.
There is some filler material, but tracks like Diesel In The Dust or The Way The Wild Wind Blows can proudly sit beside any UFO song.
UFO never revolved around Schenker, but was always about the sum of the parts. Chapman has amply demonstrated he fit in the band over the course of the four albums he did with them.
This album did spell the end of the first run UFO, the band later returning with a revamped line up and the underrated Misdemeanor album.
This series of remasters sounds great, the remastering actually adds to the original production. Some bonus live tracks round out this interesting package.
