"Satday Night in the City of the Dead" - Ultravox!

I saw the clip below live on Saturday morning Australian TV & was enchanted! The earnestness was endearing & something just really connected. JR is pretty unique! He was also one of the first guys that banned smoking at his shows, think he did that on a tour down here in the 80s!
