Phil Mogg is talking about the time in August 2022 when he almost died of a heart attack. “I’m good now. I think,” he says, grinning, checking his pulse theatrically. “Hold on a minute… Who paid for the last round? No… I got lucky really.”
Classic Rock is catching up with Mogg in Brighton, where the veteran singer now lives, to discuss the apparent dissolution of his much-loved band UFO, as well as the latest repackaging of the band’s sixth album, Lights Out. He also sheds light on the birth of a new solo project called Moggs Motel.
