Free Music Notes for Force ItFree Music Review: Let It Roll...While the bands third (new offical first) album with the German guitar God Michael Schenker had formed the foundation of their new influential hard rock/heavy metal sound, the memory of their first two pre-Schenker era space rock efforts were still agust. Phil Moog, Schenker, Pete Way, and Andy Parker again entered the studio with producer Leo Lyons to do the follow up and second album. While 1974's Phenomenon only hinted at the hard rock genius, the group sometimes seemed afraid or maybe not sure how to translate their vision but on this album they do just that and bludgeon the listener in the process. The rip roaring opener Let It Roll serves as a sequel to Budgie's epic Breadfan with the double bass drum speed that would go in to influence countless 80's thrash metal bands. Next on the roster is the fun and melodic sing along Shoot Shoot, another key moment. Love Lost Love while not as oft-mentioned is not by any stretch a bad song and is much a companion to Shoot Shoot with its catchy themes. The album takes a small dip in momentum with High Flyer , the bands last ounce of desire to create hazy psychedelic rock. Out In The Street returns things to form somewhat albeit with a more mellow approach. The next step to the bands evolution would come here with keyboards. They dont overtake the band by any means. Played in the studio by Ten Years After key man Chick Churchill, and later by new member Danny Peyronel.The albums masterpeices lay in the nasty Mother Mary and This Kids, some of UFO's best work. The hidden gem here being Dance Your Life Away, a rarely mentioned rocker packed with grooves. Although current metal bands do away with such influences I believe it was this era of metal and along with some of the 80's legends like AC/DC, Motorhead, Maiden, Priest that although were bound in guitar heavy composition do pay respect to UFO and other less forunate 70's masters of heavy riffs. The 2008 remastered edition packs unbeatable sound and lavishing packaging. Though only one of it's bonus tracks is worthy that being the unreleased song A Million Miles. The others are live tracks of the albums highlights that would be much outdone by the live album mammoth of Strangers In The Night, and even that point aside the arrangements between the two are without change. This doesnt subtract anything from this great new package from a band that is long overdue such a treatment. A "proto metal" classic.
