Roxy Music. I really, really like Roxy Music

Just replaced all my vinyl with CDs and I forgot how good For Your Pleasure is...

1. Avalon and Bete Noir my faves

Also like Ferry's solo stuff -- Mamouna is great.

7. Me too! Love both those albums.

Have you heard "Dylanesque" -- Ferry covers Bob Dylan songs. Good stuff.

2. I'd love to hear them on CD - I bet the sound is fantastic.

They were really incredible live - I saw a live performance on TV a year ago....

6. For Your Pleasure is one of the greatest records of all time

I did exactly what you did back in the early 90s, and all their stuff is amazing. The first two albums are on par with anything.

10. It was, but I felt they were still relevant and underappreciated after Eno

Ferry could walk out wearing a trash bag and look stylish. He "took over" from Eno well.
