Vocalist Phil Mogg, guitarist Mick Bolton, bassist Pete Way and drummer Andy Parker formed the British space metal outfit UFO in 1969. Originally known as Hocus Pocus, the group, which took the name UFO in honor of a London club, debuted in 1971 with "UFO 1". Both the album and its follow-up, the same year's "UFO 2--Flying", found great success in Japan, France and Germany but went barely noticed in the band's native country; as a result, their third effort, 1972's "UFO Lands in Tokyo--Live", was released only in Japan.
In 1974, Bolton left the group; after brief trial runs with ex-Pink |
