Mainly the 3 or 4 big songs were listend to (Too Hot to handle, Lights out, Electric Phase). I really don't remember this song being on the album. Now 30 years later I have re-discovered this song on my newly bought CD, and it is easily my favorite song on this disk. UFO and Schenker Rock! Eveyone should own this album.

Admittedly the guitar section is not that long but a classic that makes you want to listen to it again<br><br>. I've toured or been on stage with Stuart Hamm, Joe Satriani, Soundgarden, Yngwie Malmsteen and MSG. All including Schenker had the ability to shred beyond belief. Being able to not only do it, but do it tastefully is what makes these guys who they are and what makes the song so good. So in short, a great track from one the the best CDs ever laid down. <br><br>Just my humble opinion,<br><br>Tim Maybe im too close to this cd to take the puns or manilow references, but there are bends in the clean section along with slides.

And yeah, the 40 seconds of guitar are criminally short here. The ratio of piano to guitar in the song could have been jiggered a bit.<br><br>Not sure who is who in the photo above, but the gentleman on the left (Number 57) looks quite baffled to be hooked up with these guys. As if he, perhaps, was hoping to get in with the WHO instead of UFO .... but was too wasted at the time to know the difference. And the gentleman right next to him -- who is that? He's a dead ringer for The Daily Show's John Oliver. :-) It is definitely an impressive voice. And yeah, the 40 seconds of guitar are criminally short here.
