Product Description
Strangers In The Night is one of the greatest rock albums of all time. Here are all of the reasons why. Featuring rare previously unreleased footage of UFO in concert, this is the long awaited critical review of the album in the company of UFO founder member, the legendary Pete Way. Pete revisits the album after a gap of twenty-five years in the company of some of the UK s leading rock critics and working musicians including fellow UFO member Jem Davis. This powerful film is the definitive portrait of a under rated masterpiece. Featured cuts include a rare promotional film for Only You Can Rock Me. Also included is rare live film of the band performing as a four piece shortly after Michael Schenker joined the band. Never before released on DVD these tracks are included in their entirety as a marvellous record of UFO live onstage at a time when the band was beginning to emerge as a true rock phenomenon. Bonus Tracks: 1 Boogie For George 2 Give Her The Gun 3 Space Child 4 Doctor Doctor 5 Rock Bottom 6 Only You Can Rock Me

Synopsis
Critical review of UFO's seminal album 'Strangers In The Night'. Features the promotional video for 'Only You Can Rock Me', as well as footage of the band in performance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Crap Review of Album but live footage more than makes up for, 1 Feb 2006
By P. Roberts (Gods Own Country - UK North West) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Forget the "criticalalbum review" by a load of has beens and never wheres. Even an appearance from Pete Way who seems to have great difficulty remembering the album/recording. (Not surprising really considering it is a miracle he has survived the 80's and 90's).
No the only reason to buy this DVD is the Don Kirshner live footage. This consists of 4 live 4 piece tracks Give her the gun,space child, doctor and an orgasmic Rock Bottom - these are the days (1974) when Schenker was one of the greatest guitarist ever. The boogie for george and only you can rock me extras are both (poorly) mimed.
Don't worry the three tracks are well worth the price of this DVD and make anything less than 5 stars a sick joke.

2.0 out of 5 stars Very Disappointing, 2 Oct 2007
By P. Borrington "philipborrington" (Lincolnshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I suspect like others, I was excited at the prospect of this DVD, a critical review of one of my fave albums ever. But what a disappointment it turns out to be. The tragic lack of any live footage of UFO from the Strangers tour means this is padded out with inferior live stuff from 1975 (when the band were ok but still developing with Schenker and the sound is incredibly flat without Raymond's keyboards/rhythm guitar!)and interviews with some geezers they obviously found in a bus queue.
I can put up with the ocassional error (Schenker was still in his teens when he recorded Lights Out ... err, he was 22) but the lack of music from Strangers in favour of inferior stuff (the 75 film and the mimed videos) is inexcusable. No more so than when discussing my fave track ever, the awesome Rock Bottom form Strangers, featuring the greatest guitar solo ever laid down by a human being - over the '75 footage of a truly bad Schenker Rock Bottom solo (you know, all over the place widdling with no sense of structure) - I was about ready to throw something at the telly!!
Admittedly, UFO completists will want to buy this for the rare early footage but don't expect a serious review of Strangers.
ps one "nobody" actually says if he had been in the band (!) he would have re-arranged Mother Mary and made it longer. Take a deep breath...

5.0 out of 5 stars The Must Have DVD For All UFO Fans, 30 Aug 2005
By Jesse (New Jersey) - See all my reviews
I bought this DVD from classicrockdirect.com and it only took a couple of days to arrive. The reviewers do a decent job covering the long and complex history of UFO, referencing their discography with song clips and the occassional photo. So that part is ok, no problems.

The bonus tracks contain in full color the entire DKRC show. Amazing, simply amazing! Give Her The Gun, Space Child, Doctor Doctor, and Rock Bottom. It alone is completely worth the price you pay for this DVD. As an added bonus, you get a look at the original line-up from the Beat Club 1971, performing an almost 7 minute Boogie For George. Splendid stuff, just splendid. The bonus footage concludes with a lip-sync version of Only You Can Rock Me, which is nice but not essential. If you are a long term fan, this is absolutely essential, no doubt. For a newer fan, it's still fairly essential, because it shows a wonderfully talented rock band doing what they do best, rocking a crowd.

Wonderful stuff and I doubt you'll find many other archive releases with material this exciting. Just buy it!
