UFO - the band

Surely one of the most underrated bands of all time. All the 70's Schenker albums are classics. Discuss.
Spooky...I've just been playing UFO for the first time in years and thinking exactly the same thing, how bloody good they were. I always see them referred to as a metal band and while there's nothing wrong with that label it is far too limiting for UFO who play a pretty broad spectrum of rock'n'roll from the hard rock of "Lights Out" through to some more bluesy tracks that always remind me of The Faces. The singer (Phil Mogg?) is fucking great! I love that track, "Love To Love" in particular.
Another really cool thing about UFO is that they were big mates with Rush!
