Roxy Music - Casanova

[jamaisc64]

there is something strange in his vocal

[katoklzmk]

Ferry writes this, Eno writes Dead Finks Don't Talk 'snerk'

[katoklzmk]

The ladies on the cover are a couple of 'escorts' Ferry picked up & had happily agreed to pose

[Slipandfall360]

No shaving in the 70s

[Bonki130]

!!ahhhii

[m1kewithaone]

strange how some girls don't look good with a lot of make-up on....

[drogheda1966]

@ModifiedEvelyn Wow, how astute...

[drogheda1966]

I'm always at a loss for words. To make this all gel...

[Smithfieldis]

Really got off wanking to this! Age of 16.. Been a fan since then. 50 now and the ladies are still in my dreams. The girl on the right is my favorite.

[Izznogood63]

@Smithfieldis

I am glad she is, coz the one on the left is taken - by me ...

[cheezgrater]

@ModifiedEvelyn Hehe! You're right, even though the lady in the picture looks like she's wearing a wig, her face is much more masculine than eno's! lol.

[54taqiyya]

it's good to be a king!

[54taqiyya]

@ModifiedEvelyn  not familiar with the band but i won't dispute you!

[1968userrgb]

brian took this photo in portugal...used the car lights and two friends.

[cheezgrater]

There's a theory that that's Brian Eno on the right:-)

[801liveable]

@cheezgrater BRYAN FERRY and ANTONY PRICE, met these girls in a bar..admiring their physical forms asked them to pose for the "COUNTRY LIFE" album..that's not a theory..

[cheezgrater]

@801liveable I'm not the first to suggest it might be Eno. I'm real sorry you have no sense of humor, spud!

[801liveable]

@cheezgrater you said "there's a theory" and with my piece of information i said "that's not a theory" and yes, i almost don't have a sense of humor..

[suereed]

@cheezgrater

Is there? 

[Vispateresa3]

@cheezgrater How could it be Eno on the right? The breast look real....

[haseihuse]

Is the one on the right...a man?

If so, cool!

[thejerk1126]

I think the chicks aint chicks??!!

[54taqiyya]

@thejerk1126 naw, they met them on the beach in the wee hours of the morning in portugal, i think.

couple german gals. lucky? one translated some lyrics for the lp. trying to remember the song. it's on the lp.

[spaceman979]

wow, just wow, forgot how good this was

[dannydutchboy2011]

now theres something you just dont see every day 2 half naked chicks and a bush lol just gotta love older roxy music album covers.. tho for me it was always about the music ;) very cool band.

[JasnoGT]

Something about this album cover with this song playing.....amazing

[801liveable]

WHEN I FIRST LISTENED TO THIS SONG I HAD NEVER HEARD A VOICE LET ALONE MUSIC LIKE THIS BEFORE. VERY COMPELLING. MESMERIZING. THERE'S ONLY ONE ROXY MUSIC. IT'S TOO BAD THEY DON'T GET THE CREDIT THEY TRULY DESERVE.

[NoOneGreaterThanHe]

'like' this if you only watched this vid because of the little picture :O

[lennydylan]

the whole album...best album they ever done...play it LOUD...preferably stoned....TEXAS...oh thats where i belong...omg ..i've gone again...rock n roll..x

[louderthanlove]

I heard a quote once from a famous fashion designer who said " Fashion in rock and roll use to go as far as climbing a fence and walking thur a muddy field to get to a pop festival...then along slinked Roxy Music...." Roxy is definitely a very under rated rock group

[lennydylan]

lennydylan is that your name...or do you live there

[johnski64]

this track was re-released (this version) in the mid eighties '85..... now prefer it to the original '74 track......... played this track all the time whilst on holiday in Rhodes.. along with the album BOYS & GIRLS.......

[MrPomdownunder]

The album was released in a plain sleeve in USA......So as not to offend anyone !

[billbadford]

@MrPomdownunder Yeah! I was 14 at the time and that plain sleeve (black plastic I think) allowed me to sneak such a nice picture into my bedroom past my parents. Anyway, great song. I liked this tune best and "Out Of The Blue" second.

[lennydylan]

lennydylan...is that your name....or do you live there

[paddyoshea55]

ahh German fan girls

[donaldnewmanmedone]

Brian Eno was a member of this cutting edge band. Also worth checking out is their guitarist, Phil Manzenara. Try his project band called "801". Also see if you like Shameless by Groove Armada as Bryan Ferry is featured on vocals. Peace...

[mobyboy]

this music is pure art ! no compremise

[123stirling]

I got this confiscated at school...sir didn't like the cover, But what a band .stunning great musicians. Puts the overproduced pap nowadays in its place.

[ricchardo]

@123stirling Oh I think Sir DID like the album cover - enough to confiscate it at any rate!!

[annaq999]

edgy and fascinating

[Holmen2002]

Supertramp

[PAULLONDEN]

Epic track.Lazy (enlarged thumbnail) upload. This deserved some effort.

[rhythmcorp]

Give me any time of da day the let's stick version and i'll be forgetting this very horny comment right away you deprived HWCambell-Soup!

[snowdjagha]

look at the right bush!!! lol

great song!!

[jambamz]

@snowdjagha ahh yes the days when women didnt feel the need for a brazilian!!

[frank02111]

Casanova is that your name or do you live there? So European but what an ausome line! I saw Roxy when I was a senior in 77. They deserved much more recognition for their music then they got.

[TheHyproglo]

The one on the right is a drag queen. For all you horny young bucks must feel a little sheepish now eh?

[aprilized]

@TheHyproglo I just wikied that information and you're mistaken from what I can tell.. .btw, it's almost impossible for a tranny to have that hip to waist ratio no matter how many hormones they take...

[TheHyproglo]

@aprilized

Oh umm I don't know where i was told that many years back but I won't argue though :)

[ral1334]

@TheHyproglo You're thinking of the cover model of "For Your Pleasure"

[Vispateresa3]

@aprilized She might be a tranny, since she has very broad shoulders. I wonder if they had breast implants in the early 70's?

[TrottaVonSipolje]

@TheHyproglo

They are both german girls, Constanze and Eveline.

Constanze is the sister of the CAN-guitarist Michael Karoli.

Bryan asked them for the erotic cover-photo, they agreed and helped him with the german lyrics for the Roxy Music song "Bitter-Sweet".

For this they are mentioned on the Country Life album.

[gerhold101]

like every album (bar pet sounds) there's some ace trax and some v.ordinary. I bought the first 6 6albums, saw them live 3 x & at the time thought they were the best uk group around. the music was avant-garde and exploratory. it's surprising, on re-listening to the trax I haven't remembered how many are hard work to listen to - ferry's tortured vocals.

[lordvespatron]

she looks a bit like Michael... ahaha

[CHILLO1231]

orgasmic.....free trade hall manchester 1974........untrue

[JJackAL52]

Musical Genius...just listen closely to all that is going on in this song with headphones on!!

[remindbender]

bubbles.

crowded head phones-thee experienced bla blas

[mauro9601]

Fantastica,tra le mie preferite dei Roxi Music

[mikrocefalus]

Girl on the left is sister of a member from Can (I think the guitar player).

[DanielBowden1975]

Yep Michael Karoli

The first 4 Roxy albums are just pure quality

[51rooster]

STOPPED LISTENING WHEN AVALON CAME OUT BUT NEVER STOPPED LISTENING TO THOSE FIRST FEW should maybe check post-avalon

[swelstead]

@51rooster I STARTED listening with Avalon but have come to love the earlier stuff as I've gotten older - it all depends what mood you're in.

[jmshghm]

I heard at the time that they weren't girls.

[jackfeirytheonlyone]

Capolavoro.

[frankc5322]

Casonova is that your name or do you live there?

[inreanre]

You the hero...

Now my fínger points at you....Another loser

Monumental, a precious jewel...Or just a fool

Now you`re nothing but second hand... In glove

He is singing about me.

[SaintSerene]

Great song!

[chasseurdu46190]

@SaintSerene elle sorte dou les 2 morues !

[HowardWCampbell]

Very horny album cover

[e0r0gibson]

Here's the story I heard regarding the cover: Roxy Music was playing in Germany (I don't recollect which city) and they met the two girls on the cover at the show and asked them if they would be willing to have their picture taken. It's more horny when you consider it was ad hoc and not staged.

[HowardWCampbell]

Huh. I must have been pissed when I wrote that. I can't remember it to save my life. In Vino Veritas, I guess.

[ShotGunAnd]

@HowardWCampbell Like all of their other album covers xD

[suzesrc]

@HowardWCampbell you are the horny quack .. this is sexy .. and art ...

[DYKEPALS]

@HowardWCampbell

shutup retard

[meb7886]

@HowardWCampbell  they are transvestites

[Snoiz]

@HowardWCampbell

My brother was a Roxy-fan and their albumcovers was a little exiting for his 10 year old little brother....(me!)

They had halfnaked girls on many albums. By the way....the girl to the right has a very nice body still, I think!

[Migratoryprimate]

@Snoiz

It's not like the girl on the left is exactly hideous :)

[Snoiz]

@Migratoryprimate Don't belive I said that....?

[ziggystardust78]

I have been looking for this song for a while. Thanks.
