    Sad loss. The Foxx version of Ultravox shaped my view of music as a 16/17 year old in the late 70's. Saw them numerous times in the 80's and again when they reformed with their Ure lead line-up in the 2010's. Chris was never front and centre on stage but still a major part of both versions of the band . RIP Chris

    RIP.

    Ultravox reminds me of driving around in my Dad's car as a kid back in the early / mid 80s.

    Dancing with Tears in My Eyes, The Voice, Hymn, Thin Wall, Lament, Reap the Wild Wind. All classics which I still have in my AirPods as I walk to the station every morning.

    Considered by many to be the biggest travesty in the history of modern rock music was that Oh Vienna was prevented from getting to Number 1 by the awful Shaddup a you Face……Joe Dolce.🫣🙄😡
    RIP….Chris….RIP
