Thought it worth mentioning that Mr Foxx adds his vocal prowess to Never
Been Here Before, off Jori Hulkkonen's new album 'Errare Machinale Est'.

I think Numan has identified Foxx as an influence, ironically. Foxx was
leading Ultravox before Gary appeared on the scene.
I'll try to dig up the source, but I believe Numan had the lead on synth
work and actually tutored Foxx in that light.

Yup - at least I'm clear that I read details about it back when it was
happening. I was moonlighting as a records store clerk in charge of
ordering imports in the mid-late 70s/early 80s and I kept up on
everything of that nature back then. I also had a friend who dated the

Let us not forget that neither Numan nor Foxx (in their respective main
bands) came out of the gate tooled for synth-pop.
The connection to which I refer may be simply that Numan pushed Foxx
towards a Prophet 5 - who, in turn, goaded Billy Currie into buying one.
I do believe Numan showed Foxx

Nice interview here:

Nice one Jeff, doesn't Billy appear in the Cars video? I don't remember
seeing any credits for him tho and I have all the early TA/GN releases.

Doh! There goes my ancient man of synths membership out of the window.
Don't know how the hell I forgot about the fact that he
was UK number one with Are Friends Electric and all the rest of it before the
stuff under his own name when typing the below.
Finger too fast on the Discogs trigger.

I loved all that stuff, Replicas and Pleasure Principle remain in my top
twenty - massive influence.
It was great. That was a really exciting period to be living near a city
where bands played and working at a store/influencing the stock in the

As for touring with

There's some great interviews with Foxx on his MySpace with links in
the blogs, I haven't read them all but I will.
I think there's an interesting bio on his site. I am really loving
all these posts, thanks guys!

And Currie was largely behind Visage as well - I am a bit foggy on
that but I know Ultravox post Foxx were basically the architects of
Visage with Steve Strange.

His LP from last year was very good. I personally find his work with Harold
Budd to be his best.

I think Numan has identified Foxx as an influence, ironically. Foxx
was leading Ultravox before Gary appeared on the scene. In fact
Ultravox worked with Brian Eno before Bowie approached him for Low.
He performs old Ultravox stuff in his set (ie pre Midge Ure), his
