Portion used

This is the entire photo.

Low resolution?

Yes

Purpose of use

This is to illustrate both the visual aesthetic and line-up alteration the Buggles went through. Previously it was a "plastic group" virtual duo of Trevor Horn and Geoff Downes, but then Downes joined Asia. Thus, Trevor Horn's new Buggles was (according to the liner notes) an impression of the band in the titular setting of the short story "Vermillion Sands" (which Adventures on Modern Recording also has a song based on it), a four-piece led by a human and backed by three Kraftwerk-esque Dummies. These dummies can also be seen in different attire in the music videos for two album tracks: the title song and "On TV."

Replaceable?

No. The Buggles disbanded in 1982 and (given that it was a studio-only act) no free-licensed photos of live performance of the setup in this image exists.
