UFO - Too hot to handle

Clips taken from UFO at the BBC 1979-1982

[@greatunz67]

The best hard rock band ever, no matter what lineup they put out there, these guys were just pure, talented rock musicians who brought it each and every time and with such amazing songs, They should have been big as Zeppelin, it's a sin that they never were.

[@woodyjagla328]

,,,, one of the best !!!!!!

[@timothygrayson]

Agreed. The cream of the proverbial crop.

[@miguelcebrianalvarez498]

Yo la primera vez que los conocí fue en 1980 ,cuando un amigo me dejó el LP en directo de ; "Strangers In The Night". Quedé impresionado .Y los sigo escuchando.🙋🇪🇸🎸

I remember jamming to this in 79. Where the hell did 40 year's go? This still Rocks

Listen kids, this is real rock and roll.

[@billygonzales7675]

I never get sick of this amazing catchy song

[@MusicDude86]

All these haters on here comparing Paul Chapman to Michael Schenker. Chapman added his own distinct playing to these songs. Both men are equally talented and are deserving of respect for their contribution to the UFO sound.

[@1Phepsi]

You've got to be joking, Paul Chapman is nowhere near the guitarist Michael Schenker is. As a matter of fact, if Michael hadn't quit UFO, no one would have ever heard of Chapman outside of Wales.

[@chromiumveins]

+Mark Caroll agreed!! Schenker was the original heavy metal guitarist, then came Randy.

[@benjaminpavsner6626]

I agree, too. The fact UFO became a GREAT group w/Schenker was no coincidence. Kind of like Guns N' Roses was worthless without Slash.

[@steviemoff]

Chapman brought his own style and UFO made some great records after Schenker but equally talented, your having a laugh. Love Chapmans stuff but Michael is by far a more accomplished player and Chapman will tell you that himself.

[@teranhughes77]

Dick Dale was the original heavy metal guitar player-lol--he just didn't have access to distortion yet ;p

[@silver711]

Real rock and roll. No auto tune. Super talented musicians ! Please bring back this back ASAP.

Great guitar riff and good backing, Phil Mogg is terrific here. Strangers in the night, one of my favourite live albums.

[@lawmantheonetrueking3739]

Strangers and Live And Dangerous we’re both awesome live albums by 2 fantastic rock bands, UFO and Thin Lizzy

I played in bar bands over the years and this song was always fun to play and always got the crowd moving.

I was happy to hear that song One more time. Ashton Michael at the backstage. Tavern.

[@MK-xl3ub]

Such a great song even in 2024

[@mvellis3863]

Phil Moog is incredible. Like Paul Rodgers, he's got such a great voice for rock - and he really sings (he doesn't have to scream like so many other front men)

[@seaturtledog]

I love Bands like Rush and AC/DC but not so much for the singers. UFO has it all.

[@davidpearlactorteacherbizman]

We still got Schenker, Mogg, Parker and Neil Carter--praise the lord_) RIP PAUL PAUL AND PETE

[@tee_jay6677]

Wow these guys are tearing it up. That guitarist is smoking... To be live they are spot on. Sounds great.

[@todd9877]

UfO is the band, that made me yearn for life as a teenager, zeppelin and kiss were great but I tell you that cherry, lights out, too hot to handle, try me, love to love. Shit man it goes on and on… UFO will always be my favorite and this band and it’s songs are what gave me life….

[@johnnyM809]

This is the great classic UFO as I remember them best....RIP Pete Way, Paul Chapman and Paul Raymond

[@charlesdigennaro4981]

This was another dream version of UFO. Saw the original lineup in 77. Chapman added his own flavor to the band. Can’t take that away from him. Great guitarist in his own right

[@billbobaggins801]

Paul is fantastic with a guitar and well played. I love the drummer's foot work on this song......so sweet!!

[@shanebush2751]

My God. Every single member of this extraordinary band brought something to the band and that's great. Just enjoy and let people have their own opinion. It's ridiculous when people try to force people to see things like they do. It childish and solves nothing. Just listen and enjoy. Who cares what others think? No one is right or wrong. Everyone has the right to feel how they do. People try to make themselves important by trying to tell everyone that they others are stupid for having a different opinion. Who cares? Been my favorite band of over 50 years. I love it all.

Looks like they were being sponsored by Washburn Guitars at that time. Great show! Loved and love UFO!

[@TAllyn-qr3io]

With UFO being one of the greatest bands of all time and with their musicians being influencers of hundreds of fellow musicians (before it was a thing), I find it odd that the people standing around are zombiefied and pretty much motionless. If I were seeing this band, at this juncture, I would be the inventor of “head banging”. 🤘🤘🤘
