Ultravox, 1980

‘My most vivid memory of working for Ultravox is sitting next to the German producer Conny Plank in Rak Studios while he was producing the album. On that day Midge was laying down the vocal track for the song Vienna. Conny was my hero for his work on albums for some of my favourite bands such as Cluster, Neu! and Harmonia; he had also engineered and produced the track Autobahn for Kraftwerk. I could hear straight away Vienna was going to be a hit’
