Like some of you I'm pretty much about the Foxx era. I just couldn't warm to the Ure years, not that they were crap or anything, I just drifted away from them. I actually prefer Ure when he sang with Rich Kids alongside Matlock, New and Egan - Ghosts of Princes in Towers is a great album.
Foxx's Ultravox produced 3 quality albums, I had actually missed the self titled debut and first came to them when I heard ROckWrok on the John Peel show. So I bought Ha!-Ha!-Ha! and instantly loved it and so got the debut the next week. Systems Of Romance, seriously, not a bad track on it. Slow Motion, When You Walk Through Me, I Can't Stay Long, Quiet Men, Dislocation, Maximum Acceleration, Dislocation and on it goes, one of the best albums of 1978 and yet it flopped...
Who can forget the ferocious punk surge of Young Savage or the haunting majesty of Hiroshima Mon Amour? Great great band for the two years under Foxx's fronting.
