I had to hunt for this listing; for some odd reason this CD was buried in the Ultravox listings, almost lost! In any case, this is a great compilition of early Ultravox recordings, picking the cream off their first three albums, before Midge Ure and "Vienna" catapulted them to worldwide acclaim and popularity. But these songs were just as dynamic and moving. This version of Ultravox, of course, had a different lead singer, that being the stylish John Foxx.
Another reviewer mentioned Gary Numan as a comparison, which is in the ballpark, but I think Foxx is a much better singer, displaying a wider emotional range. The songs on this album aren't just simple electro-pop numbers, or Kraftwerk sound-alikes. You have the frantic, almost punk-ish drive of "Young Savage" and then a big switch to the smooth, lush sway of "Dangerous Rhythm." There are also gorgeous ems like "The Wild, the Beautiful, and the Damned" and the stunning and evocative "Hiroshima Mon Amour." That song takes my breath away every time. Some diehards prefer this version of Ultravox, and I can't say I disagree with that sentiment, as much as I also love "Vienna" and "Rage in Eden". These early recordings show that Ultravox were, if not pioneers, early masters of the electro-pop sound, but a band that focused more on song craft and mood-scapes than dance grooves.
