DVD 1
UFO has been around for ages, released their first album back in 1970 and I have been a fan of UFO since 1976. The three original band members, Phil Mogg (Vocals), Pete Way (Bass) and Paul Raymond (Keyboards) are joined by Jason Bonham (Drums), son of the legendary Led Zeppelin drummer, John Bonham and the amazing guitarist Vinnie Moore in this live concert from Wilhelmshaven Pumpwerk in Germany. As a fan of UFO I can only say that the track list is more than great.

We get 16 songs and of course one UFO classic after another. Tracks like “Mother Mary”, “Let it roll”, “Only You Can Rock Me”, “Lights Out”, and of course “Rock Bottom” sounds just amazing live.

They end this great concert with… “Doctor Doctor” and “Shoot Shoot”. To me it looks like UFO are enjoying them selves on stage and they are tight and sounds fresh and alive here in 2005. All in all, if you're a UFO fan this DVD is a must to add to your collection. DVD 1 ends with bonus material for the fans. “Making of DVD”, a Slideshow and Discography.

DVD 2
On the second DVD there is a real treat for the fans. 6 songs from the Peppermint Park Studio Sessions, May 26^th 2005.
Making Of Studio Songs.
A documentary called “Rockboat” where UFO plays live at a very big ship.
A documentary called “USA 2004”, where you can follow UFO in… the USA.

Last but certainly not least, there are 2 interviews. One where you can hear the history of UFO, when, where and how they met, and one with some Bonus Statements.

So if you are a fan of UFO buy this DVD, it will be one of your most well spent purchases ever.
