The Metal Hammer Xmas Party
December 1987
I am interested in UFO's colourful history, in particular the bands line-up's over the years.
One section in this website is the UFO Family Tree and I decided to look into the bands 1987/88 era. This is a part of history
that hasn't been well documented. Time to put this right. I knew that a young guitarist, Myke Gray was playing for the band. I had no
line-up information or photo's, so some detective work ensued.
This led me to to photographer, Tony Mottram, who's enthusiasm for his work and music,
inspire me, along with other muscians and fans alike.
Tony had covered the Hammer Xmas Party and his photos appeared in the January 1988 issue:

In the following article it says 'Myke Gray stole the show'
and Tony Mottram's photos document the evening really well
