Midge Ure - Call Of The Wild (Chrysalis)

Much what you'd expect really. Clean, respectable (vacuous, sterile?), perfectly crafted pop song. As 'wild' as a Quaker coffee morning and just as stimulating. (Eleanor Levy, Record Mirror, May 31, 1986)

Martin: Midge Ure is receding. He needs to get a wig. Neil: This sounds a bit artistic and classy. The squeaky guitar solo's quite good - very Van Halen. This has got "hit" stamped all over it. It'll probably be number one. We can't be too rude about Midge. Martin: Yes we can. I hate music. I never listen to records. This is not going to stop World War IV and I would not buy it. (The Boys From Sigue Sigue Sputnik, Smash Hits, May 21, 1986)
