Talk:Stevie Shears

John Foxx
Stevie never played with John Foxx outside of Ultravox!. Robin Simon played on a few John Foxx albums and with him live recently, I think the author of this article has made a mistake. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.240.255.240 (talk) 03:13, 12 April 2012 (UTC) Correct. Stevie never played with John Foxx outside of Ultravox!

leaving Ultravox!
In a recent John Foxx interview he says Stevie quit the band, or just stopped showing up at some point after Ha!Ha!ha! The narrative that he was sacked because he somehow limited the band came from the music press, who generally never get stuff right. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.243.29.91 (talk) 02:47, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

Warren Cann Interview v John Foxx interview
The narrative of Stevie being seen as a 'limiting factor' for the band comes out of the Julian Cope review of Systems of Romance. not any fact or anything said by the band. This was Julian Cope, or whoever posted the review on the Head Heritage site's album reviews.

John Foxx when giving an account of his departure said he just stopped showing up, sometime after Ha! Ha! Ha! was released.

Seeing as these statements are a real slight on his playing, you might want top get it right.
