Force It is an album by UFO released in 1975. The album title is a play on faucet. The original cover, pictured at right, was designed by Hipgnosis , as were almost all other UFO albums of the 1970's. It was softened for the initial US release, making the loving couple in the bathtub transparent. The album was produced by Ten Years After bass player Leo Lyons (one more Ten Years After member, Chick Churchill played on keyboards - it was the first use of the keys on recordings of UFO). Remastered at Sound Recording Technology, Cambridge 1994.
