When TOTP was still a top, happening programme before it became the light entertainment, playing live with the BBC orchestra horror of the mid-70s and afterwards. At this stage only those who could do it justice without ruining the excitement of their records played live more than you can say for the awful 1976 repeats. BBC musicians ruining classic disco and soul records etc
I wore that leopard skin vest paul had on, to a party one night ! It got burned in a hotel fire in Girvan one night, along with many Roxy Gold discs :(
@aaaiiiyyy Paul Thomspson looks silly?? In any other band in the history of music that statement would be a perfectly acceptable comment but Roxy Music in 1972?? The leopard skin Flintstone suit is the epitome of establishment dress code...
It amazes me to think i was listening to this in the early 70's at the age of 13 and appreciating good bloody music at that tender age, i hate to blow my own trumpet, but i had bloody good taste for a 13 year old.
@cattykinz: I was so bored by the boring look of English girls during several stays on the island that i quickly decided to become gay for the rest of my life.....so everything has even its good sides on earth !
@upyerrzzz True, and the HOF probably has to keep inducting great artists to a minimum (like Roxy, Yes, The Moody Blues, Rush) to maintain some interest in it and to have some relevance. (But to nominate Bon Jovi or The Chantels (who?), even before KISS?!!)
@hatmap: Yes, Yes....Okay, Rick Wake-Nun played on Bowie´s "Hunky Dory" all da fuckin piano, but what did he per-frog else ? "The six sexiest wives of Henry the VIII ??? Huaah, Eliza-bed the 1st born by Anne Bowleing who got hexicuted right after childbed ?
More suggestions; First four Brian Eno CD's Phil Manzanera Diamond Head CD Live 801 CD June 1, 1974 CD John Cale First two Fripp & Eno (CDs) Brian Ferrys Solo CDs from the seventies (especially the first, These Foolish Things) Mott the Hoople David Bowie (Hunky Dory, Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane, Low, Heroes, the Lodger) 60s Soul and Girl Groups
