Checking up on my confusion,

OK, well yes it was Heavy Liquid.  And duh...the song they did *was* Prince
Kajuku, the one I remember I liked from 'Space Metal,' which is just (of
course) a compilation double-LP from UFO's first 3 albums (one live).  I
think the track in question was from UFO 2, but not sure about that.  Man, I
hadn't pulled out that old album in a decade I bet.  UFO was pretty cool,
even before Schenker arrived on the scene.  A bit of trivia - Bernie Marsden
replaced Mick Bolton before Schenker joined.  So there's a UFO - Hawkwind
link via the Marsden connection to Paice, Ashton, and Lord, and the Paul
Martinez connection from PAL to Richard Strange and hence, Martin Griffin.
I'm guessing there are others, maybe with Pete Way or something.  Can't
remember who was in that 'Waysted' band he had in that awful 80s period.
They were pretty damn bad from what I remember.  Jerry tells me Pete Way
lives here in Columbus now!  That's whack!

Grakkl (FAA)

really good!)
