Hate comparisons of guitar players Schenker has so much class he took Vinnie Moore as his opening act on the unforgiven tour and loaned him his band cause he couldn't afford his own at that time. My 2 cents for what it's worth Vinnie is a better technician Michael is more creative therefore Michael gets a slight edge like I said before hate comparisons there both legendary and this series of ufo videos during the short time Jason Bonham was in the band has been a fantastic find on you tube thanks Phil. VINNIE and Jason RIP Paul and Pete
@@jeffreybrady927 Try me is Michaels favorite lead solo. Mine is Arbory Hill on the Obsession record when he learns to play the recorder (or flute). Chapman really shines on his Firing on all six album with his former band Lone Star. Vinny adds more notes to this solo and he's a great guitarist in his own right, but I'm leaning towards Joe Perry for top dog (Shenker having been my favorite since phenomenon). All the credit goes to Paul Chapman who wrote this gem of a song!
Wow, I must admit I had forgotten how great this song is. But hearing it again after many years in this version.... simply magic. Goose bumps all over.
UFO is the GREATEST band of all time,just so underrated. They have stood the test of time with many guitarists , Schenker being my favorite until Vinny stepped in. He brings so much more to UFO's sound.
Cuántos años ya se fueron, pero jamás se olvidarán esos momentos de mucha fe y esperanzas, juventud que se perdio entre los tiempos, que grupo el de UFO nunca habrá olvido para los que escuchamos su música desde los años 1970 hasta 1990, estos musicos se ganaron estar entre los mejores del mundo.
Фил Могг- супер исполнитель!! Какой оркестр! Какое прекрасное сопровождения этой песни!. Здоровья и многих лет выступлений этому незаурядному исполнителю!!❤🎉
Absolute MAGIC mogg is everything you want from a rock musician. Lyrics, emotion and a battered deep vocal style. This is truly a wonderful work of art-music.
This is a great song and UFO is a great band! Re: Mogg's Vocals. That's one part of UFO that I have never learned to appreciate, though UFO would not be UFO without him. But unlike most other singers, he's only getting better with age. I think that UFO is a guitar band AND about composition. That's why I love them! Schenker is not just a technical player but has emotion in his playing and is a great composer. I don't know much about VM but someone has to replace MS so I'm glad he's there!
Lot of comments here about the solo, being a guitar player myself ( but obviously not in the same league as these guys) I feel I should put my two penith in, first of all the original was on a studio album which had countless mixes, the guitar used here was more than likley a different one to the original, as are the amps and the effects pedals , note for note it is perfect, every guitar player has a different feel especially for vibrato, thats their mark, everyone is different, ask even schenker to play that and it wont sound the same.
The original is one of UFO's greatest ballads.... and this version with Vinnie Moore plus the little orchestra is just excellent. What puzzles me to no end is why they don't do ballads anymore on their albums since they recruited Moore ! While they cover one of their best here with him !
Hot damn Phil. I'm going to say it . Somehow expressively and emotionally I'm putting you up there with Cornell. Just beautiful. An Vinnie is a brilliant replacement for Schenker.
"Profession of Violence" UFO Hey babe what we gonna do No look behind me glances Straight time this time We'll take our chances Darling it's been so long Every lonely hour What the sinner pulls the trigger And the world turns sour *whisper in the wind Locked in silence Profession of violence Whisper on the wind Locked in silence Profession of violence Try to pick up the pieces Maybe move away But the lifer Was only yesterday Down the halls of justice The echoes never fade Notches on my gun Another debt is paid * repeat
UFO ROCKS, NOW AND THEN!!!! VINNIE IS GREAT, SCHENKER WAS GREAT, PAUL CHAPMAN WAS GREAT! THERE'S ENOUGH LOVE FOR ALL OF THEM!!! AS LONG AS THE GREAT PHIL MOGG IS SINGING, YOU CAN'T GO WRONG!!! PHIL IS PERHAPS THE MOST UNDER RATED SINGER OF ALL TIME! HIS TONE IS AMAZING!! AND THEN OF COURSE, THERE'S PETE WAY ON BASS! ONE WORD "LEGEND"!!! PAUL RAYMOND ROUNDING IT OUT AS ONLY HE CAN, EXCELLENT ON BOTH GUITAR AND KEYS!! UFO AND THIN LIZZY KEPT ROCK ALIVE THROUGH THE 70'S! AND STILL ROCK!!
To all those saying the guitar should be Michael Schenker... Wrong! Paul Chapman is the man to credit for the incredible solo on the original recording. This is ok but as others have pointed out, there's a definite lack of restraint and feeling by Mr Moore. If another (late) Mr Moore had been involved, I guarantee it would have been a whole other story :)
i quit being a ufo fan after i saw them w/ tonka. his patch cord popped out of his guitar when he was attempting ( im being kind) the lead in "rock bottom". it actually sounded better without him destroying the song. vinnie is by far the best replacement ufo ever had for schenker
@nikko601 Nice to hear that more people are added to the UFO fan-list especially in 2010. I've been a fan years now and I can tell you, their music is so classic that it resembles wine, with time it sounds even better! Such a shame the band never got the attention and glory it deserved, they were (and still are) amazing.
Me too - you can't improve perfection, he way over played it, as he does a lot of stuff, shame -less is more sometimes, I hate super speed noodles for the sake of it, detracts from the song too much.
Chapman actually came up with the solo before they wrote the rest of the song. This take was good but in my opinion Chapmans solo was the heart of the song.
Your uploads of these awesome recordings are by far the best quality on RU-vid but why don't you upload the rest of the songs they have recorded live in studio with the orchestra? Will be much appreciated if you do so, thanx anyway!
