Phil Mogg: The Underrated Genius

   
                  
                         
Phil Mogg is one of my favorite singers of all time.  It isn't because he has crazy ranges, but it is because he has a perfect tone to his voice, and he belts out so much emotion in to his songs.  When you listen to songs like "Love To Love," you get to hear a mellow and passionate side to his voice, but if you listen to "Let It Roll," then you get to hear a heavy and aggressive side to him.
             
                      
                                    Second Person: Phil Mogg with his band UFO

Phil is a very dedicated member to his band UFO, because he is the only member that has been on every single album.  The band wouldn't be the same without him, because he has become the defined member of the band.  Even during UFO's low times, he always kept the band's name alive.  Even 33 years after the band formed; he still sounds amazing, and he just helped make an awesome album called Seven Deadly.  

                       
Phil Mogg is a very important, and also underrated member of the rock world.  Even though he isn't as good as Ronnie James Dio, he definitely deserves the same or even more credit than singers like Robert Plant.  I will always love Phil's voice, and if you haven't heard him, them check him out right away.

  3. I have been a UFO fanatic since Phenomenon. Phil Mogg is the epitome of the 70's hard rock front man. His voice, lyrics,and melodies should have him and this band in the Rock Hall of Fame!

  4. Phil Moog "Cherry" ***** star hard rock masterpiece with his throaty, sly-smooth vocals killing it. Byron, Moog & Danny Joe Brown, completely ignored.
