@80111live NoBagers here - remember to always use the "reply" button when responding. No doubt, Bryan was the leading force but you could not leave "the little guy" Brian behind. Both deserve all the admiration they receive and Phil even more. Who knows what one or two more albums would have brought us? I can only dream.

@NoTeaBaggers Bryan Ferry had a lot of guts. I know most people think Eno was the creative force behind this band but remember it was Ferry who wrote, sang and created the style..Eno did a great job treating the instruments.For Ladytron I read Ferry asked him for an outer space sound and he delivered.But always remember and I know you do it was Bryan Ferry who set the table for the punks.Influencing the new wavers and the new romantics including Bowie in the early 80's

@MOTOPAC Yes, it is! And somehow he gets the words right in there, nothing like these lip syncing rip offs of today. This was the pure stuff.

Each and every one of them ..... so talented. I would pay half a year's wages to see them play like this again. Do the Strandsky!

How I missed this one I'll never know - great version - clearly early on (Eno present but most certainly not shown enough) - but I love it nonetheless. They really "jam" it for a minute or two.

I've had this song stuck in my head for going on three days, and I never tire of it XD

@jrmetmoi THANK YOU! FUCKING THANK YOU! EVERY OTHER SONG ON CLASSIC ROCK RADIO IS BLACK DOG OR kASHMERE AND I CAN'T EVEN GET A SINGLE LOVE IS THE DRUG ONCE IN A WHILE! IT'S EITHER ZEPPELIN OR STEVE FUCKING MILLER

Brian's run to the keyboard at 1:20 is priceless.

@declan32001 PLUS Brian Eno! I think they border on kitch. I'm not a musician or critic, but I can Do The Strand,!
John Travolta stole Byan's outfit once!

If you resisted this (and I was 10 then) you were wrong. To resist it now is just sad.
Only musicians and rock critics bring up this band. They predated the "New Wave" before Bowie did in terms of pop. Kraftwerk literally predicted the future of music but they also started the anti-persona thing.
I still remember being in a pub with friends with their mothers, and these 40 year-old ladies squealed when they heard Ferry sing. But I knew then that Roxy Music was transcendant.
