No matter what state of recession their hair was in, 70's British rock stars just let that shit grow.

A solution to teenage revolution. Now, if only those rioting students last week had ever heard Roxy Music.

But then, Bryan Ferry named his son Otis, and he turned out to be a total dick.

Ahhhhh roxy music are great so so great, I just wish bryan ferry wasn't a conservitive

I had all the Roxy Music albums. And went to many many concerts in Atlanta.

But never had the chance to see Roxy. Just not popular enought here to come, I guess.

This is great to finally get to see the guys that made the music. But how to decribe it?

"Otherworldly", "alien" maybe.

A blend of Casblanca and Blade Runner.

This song is archetypal Roxy. Ferry is the only performer I can think of who can pull off the enigmatic trick of being an affected self-regarding poseur who also doesn't take himself seriously. Magic! And you can count the number of males who wouldn't swap him for looks on the fingers of one hand.

@vashna3799 that, my friend is pretty good..take care..

[vashna3799]

@801liveable Your not Otis Ferry are you ? Its just that you protest a bit too much

[801liveable]

@vashna3799 so what's your point? so he produced a few albums..don't foget U2, too..who do you think produced most of the ROXY MUSIC albums? they were "produced" so well they spawned..talking heads, duran duran, radiohead, ultravox, the cars, some of bowie's later work, depeche mode, coldplay, be-bop deluxe, muse, and on and on..i'll try to write it clearly again: BOTH BRYAN FERRY AND BRIAN ENO ARE HELD IN HIGH ESTEEM..
