Description/Reviews
Midge Ure was the second singer for Ultravox, during their years of greatest success. 'Fragile' is Ure’s first album of new, original material in over a decade, and showing more progressive influences than his past work. 'Become' is the liveliest track and the one that sounds the most like Ultravox. The rest of the songs are generally more stately and atmospheric. To the extent that this is pop, it is very symphonic, grandiose, sophisticated pop. Lush synth sounds make up most of the sound palette, sometimes with the Ultravox grand piano sound, while there is occasional electric guitar (or a reasonable facsimile) of a slightly Frippian nature. There is some cinematic instrumental material, and most of this album is as deserving of being called contemporary prog as a whole lot of other stuff. (kinesiscd.com)
