Synopsis
Roxy Music€™s ambitious and sophisticated art rock built them a following far beyond the glam constituency from which they sprang. Almost embarrassed by an excess of talent, the original 1972 line-up was not only fronted by glam-rock icon Bryan Ferry but also included multifaceted genius Brian Eno, multi-instrumentalist Andrew MacKay, and killer guitarist Phil Manzanera. Subsequent shuffles of personnel and changes in musical direction are acutely documented in Jonathan Rigby€™s groundbreaking analysis of the band€™s prolific output. Complete with coverage of each band member's amazing solo work, a song-by-song analysis of everything from Virginia Plain to Avalon including album tracks, singles, and B-sides, exhaustive coverage of all the band€™s live performances from 1972 to 2007, and news of the long-awaited new album, this book will appeal to new fans and decades-long Roxy Music aficionados
