UFO
'No Heavy Petting'
Chrysalis, UK, 1976
CHR 1103
ORIGINALLY RELEASED in 1976, ‘No Heavy Petting’ was a landmark achievement for this highly respected and much loved British hard rock institution; a record made amidst deep-seated change in UFO’s professional ambitions and one that saw them expand their musical horizons by enlisting, for the first time, a keyboard player in Danny Peyronel (ex-Heavy Metal Kids).
Produced – as were its two predecessors – by Ten Years After bassist Leo Lyons, ‘NHP’ (UFO’s fifth studio outing) embraces powerful from-the-hip anthems plus material of a more melodic nature, with vocalist Phil Mogg showing a weight to his lyrics above & beyond the rabble-rousin’ norm. Essential hard rock gems such as ‘Natural Thing’ and ‘Can You Roll Her’ rub shoulders with reflective ballads like the beautifully arranged and expressively sung ‘Belladonna’, making this a record of genuine light & shade.
Tough to find original green label copies - most are the late seventies blue represses - and even harder to find them in decent shape.
