Visage - Visage (Dance Mix) 12 Inch
Visage were the ultimate New Romantic Super group,
featuring Midge Ure (Ultravox), Rusty Egan (Rich Kids), Steve Strange, Billy
Currie (Ultravox), John McGeoch, Dave Formula and Barry Adamson (All from the
band Magazine).
I hated the first Visage single “Tar”, then they released
“Fade To Grey”, a key fixture on 80s compilations these days, following that,
they released “Mind Of A Toy”, one of my favourite Visage tracks. It was the 4th
single, the self titled “Visage” that really blew me away, especially the vinyl
12 Inch Dance Mix, the drums on the track were outstanding, the 12 inch sounded
better produced and the mix was miles better than the album version.
Another 12 Inch single I had on heavy rotation in the
80s.
The Dance Mix had a running time of 6 minutes, there was
just one track on the B Side of the 12 Inch, which was the disappointing
instrumental “Second Steps”
The single “Visage” was released in June 1981 and reached
Number 21 in the UK Singles Chart.
