Midge Ure's career began in the early 70's, as he joined the band Salvation(1972), who later-on, in 1974 changed their name to Slick. Slick disbanded in 1977, and Midge joined the punk rock band Rich Kids, formed by Sex-Pistol's Glen Matlock. In 1979, Midge worked with the Misfits for a short while, and also in that same year teamed with Steve Strange, leader of Visage. He took a short break from Visage, to replace Thin Lizzy's guitarist, while they were on tour. In 1980, Midge joined Ultravox, a band who later-on proved to be one of the leading groups of the 80's synth-pop era. Midge Ure started his solo-career in 1985, and since, has released four full-length albums of suave atmospheric sounds, none of which --unfortunately-- compares to his brilliant musical achievements with Ultravox.

Oh Vienna...(everything pales into insignificance for me since his Ultravox days) so sorry I do not know. Although his recent albumns are worthy of him. As the person behind his music he should be awarded an MBE for all the work he does quietly behind the scenes for the underpriveldged children in African countries. He never makes a big deal out of it as does Bono.

Midge Ure is going to be best remembered for his single "Vienna" being kept of the UK number one spot by Joe Dulce singing "Shadappa You Face" LOL
