UFO - Obsession (2024 Remaster)

2024 remaster on triple vinyl set in gatefold sleeve 

The 2024 Obsession (Deluxe Edition) by UFO revitalizes the band's 1978 hard rock classic with a remastered sound and a beavy of bonus material. Released by Chrysalis UK, this edition features the original album remastered from the production tapes and includes a previously unreleased live mix of their 1978 Agora Ballroom performance. This live set, newly mixed by Brian Kehew, captures UFO's peak, showcasing Phil Mogg's powerful vocals and Michael Schenker's electrifying guitar work. The album, noted for its darker and atmospheric tone, features signature tracks like 'Only You Can Rock Me' and 'Cherry'. Schenker's playing shines, especially on tracks like 'Ain't No Baby' and 'Lookin' Out for No. 1', while Mogg's vocals are in top form. The chemistry within the band is palpable, and the songwriting is solid, flowing seamlessly throughout the album. Four bonus tracks, including an alternate version of 'Cherry' and two studio recordings from Strangers In The Night sessions, enrich this edition.
