Ultravox’s classic 1984 compilation The Collection has been massively expanded and will be released in December as a 4CD + 2 x Blu-ray deluxe edition. The Collection featured the 14 singles Ultravox released between 1980 and 1984 and sold over two million copies worldwide, going triple platinum in the UK. It includes hits such as ‘Vienna’, ‘All Stood Still’, ‘The Voice, ‘Dancing With Tears In My Eyes’ and what at the time was a brand new single ‘Love’s Great Adventure ‘ (recorded specifically for The Collection). This newly remastered compilation includes a remastered version of the original compilation and adds The Collection II with a further 14 singles, alternative and unreleased versions from 1986 to 2024; The Remixes which features newly created 80s-style extended mixes by the likes of Midge Ure, Steven Wilson, Blank & Jones; and a disc of B-sides collected together for the first time.
