Ultravox - Set Movements Interview 1984

Here's a treat for all you fellow Ultravox fans out there. It's a short tape I won on eBay which I think was part of the Set Movements Tour Program. It's an interview with the band with instrumental backing and ends with a short piece called the 'Rivets' Soundrack which was commissioned for a Levi's advert. As this piece is a new piece of music from my favorite Ultravox era that I was not even aware of, I have included it as a separate digital file. Enjoy!

'Rivets' Soundtrack

Return To Eden

Seeing as my blog is named after an Ultravox song, their 1982 album Quartet is my favorite album of all time, and that I never got to see them live as I was in my early teens when they split up, you might guess I am more than a little stoked at the news that the classic band line up is reforming for a 14 date tour in the United Kingdom next April.

Probably the only band I can think of that I would fly across the Atlantic for. Are any of my British friends planning on going?

More details on the tour at the excellent official Ultravox website.
