ULTRAVOX were the band I really fell in love with (Foxx era only) - waiting for Amazon to deliver the new box set to me today!

'Doktor Avalanche started life as a Boss DR55 'Doctor Rhythm' machine... but ours was always called 'Doktor Avalanche'.'

The inner geek in me would like to see a pictorial timeline covering all iterations of the Doktor..
I loved reading about the machines running DOS 3.3 and the need for SCSI back when the website was new and had fresh content added.

I have the originals and first generation CD reprints so I will probably give the box set a miss. Now if someone could just show Von how mr Foxx took a long break from recording and came back all guns blazing
. I think a lot of the post break Foxx has been some of the best of his career.
