The Best of Ultravox is a fairly comprehensive compilation that disregards the era during which guitarist Robin Simon and vocalist John Foxx were in the group. It's actually comprehensive to a fault, since it's a little too fair to the group's later and lesser singles off 1986's U-Vox -- an album that was almost as poor as its title. This shouldn't deter those who are in need of a good introduction, however, since the remainder of the selections are as representative of the group as one could hope. For the most part, the disc is based around the singles, most of which typify the sect of post-punk that was indebted to -- but not wholly reliant upon -- David Bowie, Roxy Music, and Kraftwerk.
