Free Music Notes for Phenomenon (2008 Expanded Version)

Free Music Review: 4.5 stars
Hit: 4 Stars

Phenomenon is a great listen. The strange thing about this album is that I feel Doctor, Doctor and Rock Bottom are 2 of the lesser songs(Rock Bottom less so). This is most likely due to how often I hear them and how great Rock Bottom is on Strangers In The Night. This CD is full of many other gems and unlike No Heavy Petting, does not weaken in the second half. Time On My Hands was always one of my favorites.

I found the extra tracks to be great but there are a couple of things that bother me:
1) Why not include the other Dave Edmunds produced tracks? According to the liner notes, there are other tracks that I am sure people would love to hear including another original - Rock N Roll Car
2) Why is Oh My (bonus version) partially credited to Michael Schenker when he was not in the band yet according to the liner notes. I can believe he had an influence on the final version though.
While on the subject, if one believes the liner notes, that an early version of Doctor, Doctor was recorded with Bernie Marsden (albeit with a different title and lyrics), why is he not given credit? and as stated above, why not included. Raw demos are often quite enjoyable

I already had the German bonus tracks so I really got this re-release because of Sixteen and Oh My (bonus). I really like the alternate version of Oh My.

The booklet included is great. The liner notes are very informative and I especially love the pictures of UFO with Bernie Marsden and Paul Chapman as the 2nd guitarist. I also found the Sounds review in the booklet amusing since it called the first two tracks awful - they happen to be favorites of mine.
