Comments for Ultravox, Rare 2

Rare Vol 2. Picks up were Vol 1 left off, It completes the collection of B-sides from the final seven Midge Ure era singles. Included are one or two turkeys like "3" and "Easterly", but it is also packed with some thumping live performances like "The Prize" and "White China". The latter almost being, and should had been a single. "Building" deserves a singular mention, a pure and simple song with haunting qualities. Filling up the rest of the CD, but by no means poor quality stuffing, are two difficult to find remixes. The German only 11 minute mix of "Heart of the Country" and a rather stomping version of "One Small Day" taken from the very limited 12" collection, that was doubled with the album "The Collection"
