Spearheading Billy's ultra-chic clientele were Steve Strange, a former member of the punk band the Moors Murderers, as well as DJ Rusty Egan, onetime drummer with the Rich Kids; seeking to record music of their own to fit in with the club's regular playlist (a steady diet of David Bowie, Kraftwerk and Roxy Music), Strange and Egan were offered studio time by another Rich Kids alum, guitarist Midge Ure. In late 1978, this trio recorded a demo which yielded the first Visage single, an aptly-futuristic cover of Zager & Evans' "In the Year 2525." Adding Ultravox keyboardist Billy Currie as well as three members of Magazine -- bassist Barry Adamson, guitarist John McGeoch, and keyboardist Dave Formula -- Visage signed to Radar Records to release "Tar" in September 1979, followed a year later by their self-titled debut LP. The album yielded a major single in "Fade to Grey," an instant club classic which heralded synth-pop's imminent commercial breakthrough. The follow-up, "Mind of a Toy," was a Top 20 hit, but after releasing 1982's The Anvil, Visage began to disintegrate -- first Ure exited to focus all of his energies on fronting Ultravox, then Currie and Formula broke ranks as well. 1984's Beat Boys was the group's final recording, although a remixed "Fade to Grey" was a UK Top 40 hit during the early '90s...........still gets airplay on flashback radio stations like STar Kroq...great for collectors and djs...fans of Visage,Ultravox, Midge Ure,technopop,synthpop,remixes,12"s,new wave,alternative or retro 80s will like this one....winner pays shipping and handling ...$4.00 in the USA foreign pasys apllicable shipping... ..good luck..shipping rates: within the USA cds, dvds,records $4 regular, $5.50 priority for the first item 50 cents each additional Canada, Mexico $4.50 for 1st item 50 cents each additional Europe,South America cds,dvds $7 ($1 each additional) records $10 ($2 each additional) Australia, Japan , Asia, Pacific Rim cds,dvds $7 ($1 each additional) records $11 ($2 each additional) Powered by eBay Turbo Lister The free listing tool.
