the wild, the willing and the innocent


strange title, strange cover ... but just that, strange. another ufo record :-)
this is brilliant, all the songs are surrounded by great melodies and riffs. composition is great and paul chapman demonstrates he can play, he can compose, and he does it in a great way.
chains,chains, long gone, it's killing me, makin' moves, lonely heart, all great songs. why the material of this record is often forgotten for the live set it is a mystery to me since it is first class. the record ends with one of the best ufo songs ever: profession of violence, maybe not to play in a rnr concert, but to enjoy for its beauty, and one of the most memorable solos i can think of ... this song is just awesome and makes the record to reach for its classic status.
8 tracks only ... this is the only deffect.

10/10 classic status
