'Systems of romance' - I really like this album, but I think it sounds pants on CD - any comments?

I have it on vinyl somewhere but haven't played it for 20 years.
I also have "Rock Wrok" and "Young Savage" on original 7" picture sleeves and these remain my favourite Ultravox moments.

Oooh now you are on my street!
My sad puppy history liking Ultravox included seeing em live several times - I thought they rocked!
I have the above two albums but preferred 'Vienna' - a good mix of electronica (Vienna, Mr X) and some good guitar led stuff too.
I have all their stuff on black plasic, and a couple on CD.
There, coughed it, I feel better now. LOL
andy c!
PS next we'll be talking about gary Numan, OMD, Depeche Mode, Yazoo... oh my god!

Vienna is possibly in my Top 10 Worst songs of all time. Post Systems of Romance (when John Foxx left and Midge Ure joined) they were unrelentingly awful.
