<br>By the way, I believe Ultravox is one of the best conceptual music bands. I love every one of their music videos. They are so interesting to watch. I wish they would have made more videos.

I'm looking forward to the CD/DVD greatest hits package that will be coming out this year. I have the UK DVD of their "Collection" package that came out a long time ago, but I'd like a better quality of video transfer this time around.

I didn't realize that Vision In Blue was missing from the dvd. I will have to check when I get home. I have the vhs and laserdisc also and it was on there. Why did they leave it out? Was it because of the nudity?

That's really cool on a cd/dvd release of The Collection. I hope they add Ultravox tv performances.

<br>I received these the other day from Amazon UK (birthday gifts to myself!) and I'm pleased with them. The DVD that comes with [i]Monument[/i] is quite cool and is NTSC Region 0.

Now...bring on [i]Lament[/i]!

I received these this week; I'm very happy with them as well.
"Hymn" is such a great song (as is "Reap the Wild Wind"); but somehow I missed the boat on Hymn when it was originally released.

That's great that they are including the live and TOTP clips. Too bad there wasn't more though. Also looks like Vision In Blue will be on there, hurray!!!

I think they are moving the street date on this. It hasn't changed on Amazon.co.uk as of today, but I ordered it yesterday and then got a note from them stating that it won't be ready to ship until May 5.

One of my favorite Ultravox tracks is the One Small Day (Club Version), which appears as a b-side on the Dancing with Tears in My Eyes 12." It's all about the great bass line of "One Small Day," which the mix really brings out and extends. I hope that one gets re-issued. It's one of their gems that seems to get overlooked. Of course, the 7" b-side, "Building" is another favorite of mine, which has received more recognition.

Ordered my copy. I hope the low price doesn't mean that the video haven't been remastered (like the shit job on Echo and the Bunnymen - More Songs ...).

Got my copy today and i've only listened to the CD so far but it sounds great and it has been properly remastered. I just wish they would hurry up and release a deluxe version of Lament
