May 30, 2025 by Mike Duquette | 1 Comment

A transitional album in the discography of British rockers UFO will be revisited in a deluxe edition this summer.

Rhino Turns Chrysalis Acts Up Live and Loud! Deluxe Sets Coming From Ten Years After, Robin Trower, UFO

September 6, 2013 by Joe Marchese | No Comments

Just a couple of months back, on July 1, Warner Music Group announced that it had completed the acquisition of the Parlophone Label Group from Universal Music Group. The transaction was set in motion as a result of the break-up of EMI, and with its completion, WMG now holds not only the Parlophone label itself but the Chrysalis/Ensign, EMI and Virgin Classics labels. We’ve seen projects already announced from the new Parlophone, including a Matt Monro rarities release due in the U.K. this September. We can now reveal that numerous Chrysalis titles…

EMI Releases Second Budget Box by UFO

April 4, 2012 by Mike Duquette | No Comments

UFO are getting their second budget box set from EMI in the U.K., covering the band’s work in the ’80s on Chrysalis Records. A follow-up to last year’s budget set from the label, The Chrysalis Years Volume 2 follows the hard-rocking band through several periods of transition. In 1978, virtuosic guitarist Michael Schenker, formerly of Scorpions, left the band, to be replaced by Paul “Tonka” Chapman, the band’s guitarist from 1974 to 1975. (This was far from the only lineup change through the decade; bassist Pete Way left in 1982, and was replaced by a…

In Case You Missed It: UFO Lands in Budget Box from EMI

July 14, 2011 by Mike Duquette | No Comments

The latest of EMI’s ongoing budget box sets should be of particular interest for fans of early hard rock group UFO: a vault-vacuuming set of the band’s early material for Chrysalis Records. UFO are now a respectable name among rock and metal fans, but the band’s early experimental material for Beacon Records only earned them modest success in other parts of Europe and Asia. When the band added 18-year-old former Scorpions guitarist Michael Schenker to the group, however, a cleaner but no less heavy sound was built. And chart success came with…
