Does anyone have this early 80's LP? I gather there is a Midge Ure/Ultravox connection.

It's one of my favorite albums. The members went on to be Messengers, which worked with Ultravox quite a bit and one member, Danny Mitchell, became Midge Ure's songwriting partner for most of Midge's career. The original "Wastelands", which Midge later released as a single, is on this album. It was also produced by Midge.
