UFO - Live At Rockpalast - Mystery Train (Live Video)

[@wendellburkhart8297]

The best version of this song that's ever been done !

[@blanketjackson8075]

Yes, I use this one for the playlist!

[@NatureGirl62]

Phil was the most underrated songwriter and frontman ever. I am so blessed to have finally met the band in 2008 (with Vinnie Moore on lead guitar) and to have had the opportunity to thank them for everything they brought to me. RIP Tonka, Pete Way, and Paul Raymond. What a legacy.

[@FranciscoXavier7]

Yes🤘🏻🧡

[@rafaelayres9530]

Really, Phil is the best, my favorite band since 1976.

[@FranciscoXavier7]

Nature girl , let’s go Europe for last concerts

[@glenkepic3208]

Nice. Extended saw them around the same time as you. Just a little club date, Modesto, Ca. They said Phil said he had a cold. They wouldn't have known. Still rok'd it!

[@SupertzarMetal]

Yes, good songwriter, but he did not write Mystery Train. It was first recorded by Junior Paker in 1953. He took some of the lyrics from a folk song called Worried Mans Blues that was recorded in 1930 by the Carter Family. Elvis recorded Mystery Train in 1955. Many others have also recorded or performed it. Stray Cats, Eric Clapton, Jerry Lee Lewis (playing guitar).

Fantastic. Chapman was a tremendous talent.

[@nonrevnosnibormetalbeerrev6251]

The best band on the planet ever, so underrated with tonka, R. I. P. Tonka, paul Raymond and Pete way

[@saxonsteve]

First Off, Paul Tonka Chapman was a phenomenal guitarist (R.I.P.) And the No Place To Run cd was awesome. Train Train happens to be my one of my favorites on this cd. UFO is one of the greatest bands to grace the earth.

[@peterkabrna]

Thanks for this. Bloody brilliant. First time for me was 78. Tonka was a brilliant guitarist unfortunately some people disagree

[@alancrosby8123]

There some who worship so hard at the temple of Schenker that they are blinded to the wonderful Mr Tonka Chapman!

[@peterkabrna]

Prefer Chapman over Schenker......everybody jumps on the Schenker bandwagon... No Place To Run is a brilliant album. As is TWTWATI. RIP Paul.

When schenker left ufo in 78 they couldn't have got a better replacement Paul chapman was so underated God bless you Tonka R.I.P I will miss you my friend

[@1Phepsi]

They could have gotten a lot better replacement, but as Phil Mogg said, they rushed into it, and hired chapman because they knew him, and better the devil you know than the devil you don't know.

[@1Phepsi]

@@jerrywoods4066, Some people did, but the albums he played on , sold less, and fell steadily down the Billboard charts in America NPTR was the highest at #51, then TWTW&TI #77 , Mechanix #82 and Making Contact #159

[@jerrywoods4066]

@@1Phepsi interesting though their highest chart album in UK and part of Europe was Mechanix and the wild willing and innocent different from the American market believe obsession was their biggest in america

[@1Phepsi]

@@jerrywoods4066 Actually Lights Out was their most successful album, reaching #23 in the States. The thing people forget about the U.K. is that it's a much smaller market, and a band would get a Silver Record for selling 60,000 records, whereas in America you have to sell 500,000 for Gold. Phil Mogg said that UFO had 3 successful eras, the Bolton era in Japan and Germany, the Schenker era in the States, which was their most financially successful, and the Chapman era in England.

Man, Paul Chapman was good. He was every bit as good as Michael, maybe better. There, I said it! And I love Michael. It comes down to tone and style. Michael has a world of that. But Paul had a ton of it too.

[@rockdinosaur666]

Tonka was never going to win when he took over from Schenker. I remember the bad press he received back in the very early 80's after the NPTR tour. A great guitarist in his own right and they had some excellent albums during his tenure but Schenker had/has the most amazing tone, technique and phrasing when he plays. A true virtuoso.

[@jerrywoods4066]

He's no Micheal period

[@kenm.3512]

@@jerrywoods4066 Yeah, I know. Michael Schenker is one of my all time favorites. I can't say that about Paul Chapman. I wrote the post after hearing that Tonka had died.

I liked Schenker but preferred what Chapman brought to the band more. There's more to great music than how fast your riffs are. Always a great show when they'd come to town. RIP Tonka, Way and Raymond.

[@1Phepsi]

If you think Schenker was nothing but fast riffs, you are very sadly mistaken. Schenker changed the musical direction of UFO, and created the UFO guitar sound , which all other UFO guitarists have tried to replicate since his departure.

[@КымбатТегешова]

Спасибо Фил за прекрасную композицию! Россия не любят тебя! Не пропадай!

[@НатальяДмитрук-у8д]

Россия любит UFO, и её лидера, рок-вокалиста и поэта всех времён! В России достаточно поклонников этой великой группы, жаль, что они больше никогда не будут гастролировать... Здоровья Филу, и наилучшие пожелания!!! Благодаря его неутомимости и стараниям в самые трудные времена группа не распалась, и просуществовала почти 56 лет, подарив нам плеяду потрясающих рок-музыкантов, прекрасную живую музыку и отличное настроение!!!✨✨✨🎸

[@cocktailhotel]

Paul brought some grit and style in his playing that fit well with UFO, especially following in where Michael left off. And then there's the band that Chapman came out of - Lone Star - that totally kicked ass in their, sadly, only two albums,. But both were great and unique nonetheless. Firing On All Six !

[@snowdevil7727]

How about his playing on some of the Waysted albums like TGTBTW? Awesome.

What’s up with Tonka. He sure could slide those licks around. A lot like? They did play together in the beginning. I never knew that till I found a recording on here! Never heard that one before. Anyway the first tour after Michael was to me the best post Mike. There first headline tout in Philly. Tower theater. Rocked it. In his sweater. I like people who rock. Without gimmick

[@glenkepic3208]

Pretty great. Saw UFO for Force It in '75 < Winterland. Huge Schenker fan,,,,two V's here. Later, like '82, go to see them, SF Civic (later the BG Civic) Never knew a show could get too loud. I mean, LZ, Kezar, 10 or 12 shows at Winterland and alll... This was. The only thing that made any sense was the intro to this song. The rest was a garbled mess (First row balcony seats, straight out from the stage).

The Chapman era produced three decent albums, but they had lost their momentum and would never reach the heights they were destined to with Schenker on board.
