Obsession (2024 Edition)

Obsession, the 1978 album from UFO and the last to feature Michael Schenker, until his return to the band in the '90s. This is the band's seventh record and one of their most interesting musically. With the writing partnership of Mogg / Schenker in fine form, these recordings feel more atmospheric and darker than previous outings. Obsession has been newly remastered from the original production tapes transfers at AIR Mastering. Included across two LPs is a previously unreleased 2024 Mix of Live at The Agora Ballroom, Cleveland, which originally featured within the classic Strangers In The Night live album. Newly mixed by revered engineer Brian Kehew from the original multi-track tapes, giving it the best sonic outing to date. The four bonus tracks include a previously unreleased Alt. Version of 'Cherry' as well as two studio tracks recorded at The Record Plant for Strangers In The Night live album in the months following the Obsession release. Obsession [2024 Remaster - Deluxe Edition]: 2CD digipak with O-card deluxe version includes four rarities including a never-before-heard version of 'Cherry', the Live at The Agora Ballroom concert and poster booklet with liner notes by Michael Hann featuring interviews with Phil Mogg, Andy Parker and Michael Schenker.
