One more thing...if you find the Midge Ure version of Ultravox cheesy, then
you'll prolly want to steer clear of Visage. There are a lot of similarities
between the output (and members, although Mr. Strange did take Visage into a
slightly different place). Some of those tracks are still guilty pleasures,
though. Cheese can be a good thing, especially if aged and served in limited
quantities.
