During the 1970s, UFO was one of the most popular heavy metal bands in the world, thanks in no small part to the blistering guitar work of Michael Schenker.
After recording several best-selling albums, Schenker quit in 1978 to join The Scorpions. With his departure, UFO lost their personality; working through several line-up changes, they continued to record into the 1990s, churning out faceless arena rock.
