About Zones

Formed in 1978 and consisting of Willie Gardner (Vocals & Guitar), Billy McIsaac (Keyboards), Russell Webb (Bass) and Kenny Hyslop (Drums); this is, in fact, the entire PVC2 line-up minus Midge Ure. They are probably best known for the track "Mourning Star", of which the melody line was borrowed for "Hymn" (Midge Ure was a member of Ultravox at that time and co-wrote Hymn). They broke up in 1979. Webb & Hyslop joined The Skids within a year and Hyslop later joined the Simple Minds.
