The Story Of Roxy Music: More Than This

Although Roxy Music were an immediate success in their native England, for the most part they are regarded as either a one hit wonder or cult group here in North America. Younger music fans probably know them best from Scarlett Johansson's sultry karaoke take on this DVD's title track in Lost In Translation. But the band's influence is...

By Chris Burland (CHARTattack) July 7, 2011 2:55 pm
A while back, we ran a story about 20 amazing album covers with boobies on them. It was good PG-13 fun and all, but we wanted to get a little heavier, a little darker. So we decided to seek out the badasses.Here's 32 albums that have been either banned or censored after their initial release. World Trade Center Destruction 1) Dilated Peoples — "...

There's a reason why the only Roxy Music album anyone owns is Avalon and listening to this is a graphic illustration of that.

I far prefer For Your Pleasure than this record, but it's still pretty fantastic, especially the German bits. But Bryan Ferry and company are kind of leading people on with the cover. Nowhere in the country (Canadian or British) have I ever seen women lying in the middle of the grass in their underwear:

So we're all supposed to consider Roxy Music these great, brilliant romantics, right? And yeah, they've got about a half-dozen songs that truly are classic. But this record, man, I'm glad I didn't pay money to go to that show.

in

With his keen fashion sense and sophisticated style, Bryan Ferry might never be mistaken for Bob Dylan. However, it won't stop Ferry from releasing an album of classic Dylan tunes. According to Roxyrama, an unofficial but authoritative fan site dedicated to Ferry and Roxy Music, EMI will release Dylanesque sometime in March. Although no track...

Brian Eno recently visited the members of Roxy Music while they were in the studio but, despite what you may have read elsewhere, the veteran musician/producer isn't rejoining the band. Roxy are recording their first new studio album since 1982's Avalon. In advance of that LP, they plan on releasing a remix album where various DJs and producers...

Roxy Music All But Reunite... Without Bryan Ferry

in
By David Missio (CHARTattack) July 5, 2004 3:00 pm
Well, they've got four out of five, and that ain't bad. It's just a bit unfortunate that the one absent member also happens to have been the lead singer. But hey, look at The Doors and INXS — lead singer lead schminger. Keyboardist Brian Eno, saxophonist Andy Mackay and drummer Paul Thompson joined guitarist Phil Manzanera for an almost-there...
