Welcome to the site
ULTRAVOX fans launched 'Remembering Eden – 30th Anniversary Tour Book' - a celebratory project to commemorate the return of the '80's synth pop pioneers to the live stage in 2009/10. The project also aims to raise money for the Mick Karn Appeal, while being a tremendous tribute to Ultravox and all those who were involved in the rise of their career, both past and present.
The official release coincided with the 30th anniversary of the hit single 'Vienna' with a book launch taking place in London on the evening of Saturday 15th January 2011.
Remembering Eden is a multi-chapter journey presented in the form of a story which takes us from the '80's right through to the present with the Return to Eden 2 tour being represented in its entirety. In brief, it contains:
- Foreword by Rusty Egan
- Exclusive thirteen page pre-tour interview with Chris Cross and Billy Currie – provided by journalist Rob Kirby and only ever published in their entirety in the Re:Vox Fanzine which is now out of print, therefore many will not have read these
- Alan Wild (original lighting designer) looks at the professional side of stage sets and lighting for the various tours
- Laurie Small gives an insight into tour managing the band in the 1980's with his stories and recollections while ex crew member from the 80's, Roy Gwinn, talks about specific technical preparation for the return
- Zaine Griff recalls his memories of working with/meeting band members in the 1980's
- Fan reviews and extensive photo library (including professional prev unpublished photos) covering all of Return to Eden 2 and highlights from Return to Eden 1
- Martin Slade talks about the 2010 Vienna Campaign
- A look at the Ultravox Effect in the form of some unique Ultravox inspired artwork
- The publication also includes individual detailed band member biographies plus a snapshot of solo work, and a full band biography – all superbly illustrated with the fantastic digital artwork of Australian designer Toni Hearn (based on the photographic work of Trevor Key, Copyright The Estate of Trevor Key and used with kind permission of Letty Key.)
