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.

I second your choice for 'Quartet' as their best.
'Reap the wild wind' is simply an amazing song.
