This book is a stunning collection of photographs taken by Midge on his travels between 1980 and 1985. Travelling with a Canon A-1 camera, he documented his work in the recording studio, on tour with Ultravox, behind the scenes whilst directing promotional videos and holidays in far-flung places and road trips.
From poor, working-class roots in Scotland, to one of the most successful musicians of his generation, Midge Ure has spent over 25 years both at the cutting-edge and behind the scenes in the music industry. Midge also spearheaded Live Aid - the biggest concert the world has ever seen - and "We Are The World" USA for Africa, which raised over $100 million for famine relief. Few are better placed to offer real insights into the rock'n'roll business over the last quarter of a the characters, the business, the lifestyle and the trappings - including the dream house he built in Montserrat which was wiped out by Hurricane Hugo and rebuilt only to be buried by a volcano.
