Formed way back in 1974, before any of their contemporaries on this list, Ultravox consisted of John Foxx plus bassist Chris Cross, keyboard player and violinist Billy Currie, guitarist Steve Shears and drummer Warren Cann.
Their Bowie and Roxy-influenced sound led to a deal with Island at the height of punk, and a major coup was scored when Brian Eno agreed to produce their eponymous debut album, which, however, failed to chart.
