What Lee said.

-----------------------------------------------

Country Life, great cover , great album.....but there are several others...

For me its always been the first three Roxy Music ,For Your Pleasure and Stranded ,perfection for me !

Yes they were the albums I grew up listening to with alongside Bowie of course

Those were the days ....all those Bowie Roxy nights.....

Oh and Manifesto.

-----------------------------------------------

Yeah Manifesto was a great album ! for some reason Siren never quite drew me in ,it has some truly great moments but I feel the first three have a special appeal ,Country Life for me has always felt like Stranded revisited ,still good though !

I love the idea of Roxy Music, but can't do a whole album. You get rubbish like that Bogus Man, or that song about blow up dolls.

The Bogus Man and In Every Dream Home A Heartache would be the highlights to a Roxy fan ! music is all about time and place really you either get it or you don't ?

True. I get it, and I like their singles, but sometimes it's all just a bit too much.

Thats a fair comment ,sometimes I can listen to something and it doesn't click then years later I get it ,Television's Marquee Moon was like that for me , I love it now wheras at the time I couldn't quite get into it !

I'm new to Roxy Music, I like Country Life and Avalon the most right now.

I'm getting Bryan Ferry's Boys and Girls album for Christmas, and also Roxy Music Live 1979. I really like them

david bowie wishes he had written "in every dreamhome ..." in concert it was stunning and usually brought the house down. Manzanera had amazing chops but he was like Ronson in the that he knew that less is more. Bowie and Roxy were like a Glam Version of The Beatles and The Stones ... while trying to one up each other they spurred each other to new heights, and left a stunning trail of singles and albums within a very short period of time, whilst The Sweets and The Glitter Bands of this world got left in the dust. They were heady days in deed and we shall not see their equal.
