NO NECK HERE, BUT PLENTY OF GREAT TUNES!
This cd reunites 4/5 of the "classic" line-up with the recent return of Andy "No Neck" Parker. 11 solid rock anthems which are easily the best thing they've done in 10 years. Some great playing and some interesting twists on the old formula make this album a must own for UFO fans. Check out the samples of "Who's Fooling Who" and "Black And Blue" to be convinced!

stop it already.....
this album is weak and boring, much worse then even you are here, which is also boring.....
i realize this isnt 1978 but this isnt even close to sounding like ufo....i saw this line up a year ago "snooze"...then i saw msg a few weeks ago in LA, so much better...yes michael schenker has some problems, but its rock n roll and im not looking for a role model...unless schenker goes back to ufo, ufo should just retire...oh yera, jason bonham is soooo overrated, so overrated he's now playing drums in foreigner, please....back to the album...the monkey puzzle is an embarassment to the ufo catalogue...

Very Disappointing!
If you didn't like UFO's "You Are Here" than you won't care for "The Monkey Puzzle". The songs just don't go anywhere, not like the classic seventies stuff with Schenker. After listening to "The Monkey Puzzle" it's apparent that UFO needs Schneker more than he needs them. My advice, skip this cd and pick up the newly 2008 remasters of the classic UFO lineup such as "Phenomenon", "Force It", "No Heavy Petty", "Lights Out", "Obsession" and "Strangers In The Night".

Still Fying High
UFO is soaring higher than ever with their new release "the Monkey Puzzle" Classic, powerfull, good old Rock n Roll with a fresh sound. "Heavenly Body" and "Black and Blue" are amazing. Vinnie Moore is a perfect fit for the voice of Phil Mogg and the rest of the british rockers. Way and Parker along with Raymond perfectly round out the UFO sound! Buy this cd. You'll be glad you did.
