Making Contact is the eleventh studio album by English hard rock band UFO, released in January 1983. It was their first album without founder and bassist Pete Way. UFO disbanded after an unsuccessful European tour and a few UK dates in 1983.

Recording

Recording commenced with Gary Lyons, who had produced the band's previous album, Mechanix. Phil Mogg said, "We had to sack Gary after about 4 weeks when we realised we were paying him a lot of money and he wasn't doing very much." Neil Carter added, "Mick's a very hard working bloke, whereas Lyons would only be there for 10 minutes a day."[1]
