RIP. Too soon after Paul Raymond last year and Paul Chapman a few months ago. I hope Phil and Andy actually get to enjoy their retirement. UFO rules, I cannot recommend Strangers in the Night enough.

They were a big name back in the seventies, mainly in Europe.

they were so influential for metal that I think modern metal fans should really know them
