Lights Out was the most successful UFO album ever, featuring melodic axe-abilities from guitar wizard Michael Schenker and a new keyboardist/guitarist/back-up vocalist, Paul Raymond. While such tunes as "Too Hot to Handle" exhibit a hard rock/early heavy metal sound, the album also features more emotional songs such as "Love to Love" and "Try Me". It was released in '77 and reached #51 on the album charts in the U.S.
