Extended Ultravox is an Ultravox compilation of 12" extended versions of various Ultravox singles from the years 1980–1986 (the period with Midge Ure as frontman). The album was released in 1998.
The tracks on the discs are all extended mixes of Ultravox singles, available on their respective 12" versions. The notable exception to this is "Serenade" – a non-single track from Quartet. The "special re-mix" of this track was previously available on a remix LP available with limited copies of The Collection in 1984.

The Island Years is a compilation by Ultravox, released in 1999 by PolyGram and Spectrum labels. It contains songs from their three first albums (Ultravox!, Ha! Ha! Ha! and Systems of Romance), when John Foxx was the group's vocalist and frontman, and another two guitarists, Stevie Shears and Robin Simon were with them (although not at the same time). The album is a compilation of the band's early years, before Midge Ure became a member, and the band scored a number of hits in the 1980s.

By the time this album was recorded (1993) Ultravox was reduced to Billie Currie and friends. However Sam Blue does an excellent Midge Ure impression, when required, and Vinnie Burns is great with the over-the-top guitar solo. The only songs of the well known Ultravox period which don't work as well as I'd like are Reap The Wild Wind (which I've always thought needs two vocalists) and Hymn.
