UFO: Strangers In The Night: A Double Live Album (Chrysalis)
Harry Doherty, Melody Maker, 20 January 1979
THE LESSON to be learned from this album is undoubtedly that the natural habitat of a heavy metal band is in concert. The proof comes when the coldness and relative inefficiency of UFO's studio work is placed alongside the roasting live hive of hard rock activity on Strangers In The Night.
