Predominantly UK Synth (or New Wave) Bands

 A bit of nostlagia dating back to the birth of Synth Bands in the UK mainly.  If I have missed one feel free to let me know.

First up is a band that formed in 1974 in London.  Ultravox.  Click on here for their 2010 live concert, at 1 hour 42 minutes long a stellar listen.  https://youtu.be/IKdxs2w1wt0
