Roxy’s first two albums with Brian Eno are staggeringly good. I was 17 when this album was released and it blew me away,but then,in London at the time,a great deal of music blew me away.
great reaction discovery from Roxy,s first album in 1971 I saw them in concert in1974 and one thing you will appreciate about Roxy is thiey are art rock and you never know what to expect from the next song .I know because I have been listening to them for the past 48 yrs and am going to thier 50th anniversary tour in Austin and not one of thier songs sounds the same as the other . They are true art which you can listen to forevever
Their lawyer at the time was was actually called Robert E. Lee. Hence the "make me a deal and make it straight, all signed and sealed I'll take it. To Robert E. Lee I'll show it."
'The first two albums were their best, strange, experimental artrock. After Brian Eno left their music became less experimental but still good. Virginia plain wasn't on their debutalbum, todays pressings contain the song but it's a strange song between the other tracks. It's a typical single and i like it.
Oh yes memories from the early 70's - my teenage heyday. Virginia Plain was huge in the UK. FYI, Cynthia 'that man' was the legend that is Bryan Ferry.
I too saw Velvet Goldmine. I loved the film but it is now a very vague memory. A long time ago in the cinema. An old friend of mine he wanted to see it. So I saw it totally randomly by accident if you will. As for Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music just wow. WOW ! Awesome band. This song is mind blowing !
your smile got bigger and bigger - that's what this song was all about in 1972 - fun, fun FUN! velvet underground is very much a different kettle of fish - start out with Sweet Jane and take it from there.
the man whose vocals you heard in "Virginia Plain' Also did solo albums during his time with Roxy Music, One especially poetic song frome his solo album "In Your Mind" is the song ""In your Mind" has a great rock melody with the best poetic Lyrics in my years of 60 years of listening to rock music
All those references to Golden Age Hollywood, that retro Rock 'n' Roll glammed up vibe and Eno's futuristic synth doodling! Too much. I was 12, Bowie was just Ziggying, Roxy were blowing things apart. 1972 was the 21st Century as we were imagining it.
Just found you Haniers today…The Jam, Roxy music ? No one else is listening to these bands that were what the young underground-arty and punk type crowd where listening to in the late 70’s, at least that was our experience in Sydney Australia. Roxy’s lead singer Brian Ferry did a cover album Called Hard Rain..Bob Dylan cover…this album regarded as the best cover album ever…must Listen. Ferry was at the time one of London’s top graphic artists. Look up the album covers for Roxy music, one of course featuring Jerry Hall, his one time partner, before Mick.
As a 9 year old who was learning to play the piano the use of synthesizers in the record blew me away. The other record of the time that had a similar affect on me was Son Of My Father by Chicory Tip. 😎
got another for you from Robert Calvert and his best on his concept album "Captein lockeed and the Star fighters" is Song "Ejection" theres more good stuff on the album but as it is a concept album it.s best listened to whole some good hard rock
Liking your reaction vids guys. For some Velvet Underground, I'd recommend I'm waiting for the man, Sweet Jane, Heroin, Venus in furs. For their softer side, try I'll be your mirror, Pale blue eyes, Sunday morning or Stephanie says. Hope you try one and enjoy.
'Waiting For The Man' was in the movie 'Almost Famous'. I (Chris) have the Untitled "Bootleg" DVD, and I worship that movie. I certainly know that song. So, I guess I HAD heard SOME Velvet Underground after all.
There is a great cover of "I'll be your mirror" by Susanna Hoffs. th-cam.com/video/Zc-XeMzJ46Q/w-d-xo.html. The entire Rainy Day Album is great! th-cam.com/video/ui2VjVqgM_U/w-d-xo.html
Not often you hear the oboe as a rock instrument. In fact this may well be the only group to do it. To understand where Ferry's vocal style comes from you need to realise he's a Geordie, & what that accent sounds like. A fabulous band, innovative in so many ways.
This is our first time giving Roxy Music a good hard listen. We know Bryan's work from the 80's. That was spectacular. But for some reason, we never managed to get to listening to his old band. Weird, right?
haniers if you want a poetic Rock song from Bryan ferry Of Roxy music his best Is From his solo album "in Your Mind " Song Inyour mind THe Lyrics Are Astounding Poeticly and you will love the sound It,s from around 1975-76
His critically acclaimed solo album "Theses foolish things" is a mix of rock crooner mixing 30,s thru 50,s music with a rock and roll blend to the point of not changing a lyric which amazed everyone who heard song"Its my party" take note bryan is not gay but Wanted to be true to the art form. His next best album was all covers also , except a Couple of songs the album is "Another time another place This is classic rock crooner romance and I defie you to find anyone who does it better
Jim Morrison, the doors, lou reed, the velvet underground and nico, roxy music, with brian eno not when it became the brian ferry band, Blondie, psycadelic furs. all stuff you should check out.
Some suggestions for classic late 70s/early 80s British music ; "Are friends electric" by Gary Numan, "Geno" by Dexys Midnight Runners, "Song to the siren" by This Mortal Coil. All three are very different to each other and all are well worth listening to.
I would like to suggest a 40 years down the line song fromBryan Ferrys, album "Frantic" co produced by the man created the artistic mystique of Roxy Mr Brian Eno. The song is called"I Thought'it is lite and sentimental but very romantic
Actually, you could have played this in an 80's dance club if the crowd was hip enough. Roxy Music was a hugely popular and enormously successful band in the UK and in Europe... many people said they were laying out the blueprint for the '80s during the mid-70s. Duran Duran has said that without Roxy Music, Duran wouldn't even exist. Roxy Music was the direct inspiration for the entire "New Romantic" movement. Personally, I'm not a huge Velvet Underground fan (though I am a huge Roxy Music fan). A more modern band of it has some of the Velvet Underground's vibe is the *Jesus and Mary Chain*. I would check out: "Blues from a Gun" "Between Planets" or "Head On"
jusst had to leave you with 2 more adventures songs that are will appreciated but not will exposed from the lead singer from band Van Der Graff Generator. This is a alter ego version of what he normally produces and is a solo product. Known ass NadirsBig Chance " heavy rock influencewith some quirky wierdnes in some sons songs to listen to our "Nadirs Big Chance" And Open Your Eyes for the Theme of the album
We definitely know Sultans Of Swing. This was one of the songs my (Chris) band, back in the day, would play with during rehearsals. Our lead guitarist was miffed that he didn't have the skill to do the song justice. We had a friend come by to record us who owned a guitar repair shop and was a crazy good guitarist himself. He barely got by showing us how he did it. Almost perfect, if a bit sloppy. We loved it, though.
you need to listen to roxy songs at least 3 timesthey will grab you after a few listens and then your hooked you need to understand there is a artisic complexity that no other group including Bowie could match and he has admitted to that

*1972 (first album)
Their lawyer at the time was was actually called Robert E. Lee. Hence the "make me a deal and make it straight, all signed and sealed I'll take it. To Robert E. Lee I'll show it."
I was 14 when this came out. Still my favourite song of all time
'The first two albums were their best, strange, experimental artrock. After Brian Eno left their music became less experimental but still good. Virginia plain wasn't on their debutalbum, todays pressings contain the song but it's a strange song between the other tracks. It's a typical single and i like it.
Was 12 when I first heard this. Superb. Been a fan ever since.
Oh yes memories from the early 70's - my teenage heyday. Virginia Plain was huge in the UK. FYI, Cynthia 'that man' was the legend that is Bryan Ferry.
Saw Roxy in Bradford early 70's. Blooming epic.
There's great footage of them playing this from Top of the pops you should check them out, great band.
I too saw Velvet Goldmine. I loved the film but it is now a very vague memory. A long time ago in the cinema. An old friend of mine he wanted to see it. So I saw it totally randomly by accident if you will. As for Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music just wow. WOW ! Awesome band. This song is mind blowing !

This was the first record I bought. I was 11 years old and bought it from WH Smith in Maidenhead in 1972.
the man whose vocals you heard in "Virginia Plain' Also did solo
albums during his time with Roxy Music, One especially poetic
song frome his solo album "In Your Mind" is the song ""In your Mind"
has a great rock melody with the best poetic Lyrics in my years of
60 years of listening to rock music
We know Bryan Ferry's solo work. Well, his singles that he released in the 80's, anyway.
All those references to Golden Age Hollywood, that retro Rock 'n' Roll glammed up vibe and Eno's futuristic synth doodling! Too much. I was 12, Bowie was just Ziggying, Roxy were blowing things apart. 1972 was the 21st Century as we were imagining it.
This was a part of the soundtrack of the under-rated film "Velvet Goldmine".
Saw Roxy three times in the 70's. Superb.
Great reaction the smiles say it all
I forgot the lead singers name BRYAN FERRY
Trys sgueeze another nail in my heart!!

oh By the way these albums were produced in 1974 -75
Watch the videos of them on The Old Grey Whistle Test.
I still have the original single...and the next one..Pyjamarama
Another stunning British Export...?
Simon Artley Manchester UK

Didn’t Brian Eno play it for The Portland symphonia?
@@teanosuger Is that right? I think Eno had something to do with the Portsmouth Sinfonia. Those records are hysterical.

Poeticly and you will love the sound It,s from around 1975-76
The name Virginia Plain came from a painting Bryan Ferry done it was a woman holding a pack of cigarettes called Virginia plain
Brilliant!
Loving your reviewing style. Another great review.
We appreciate it.
Robert E Lee was/still is their lawyer.
"To Robert Lee we'll show it". Robert Lee was their lawyer at the time.
His critically acclaimed solo album "Theses foolish things" is a mix of rock crooner
mixing 30,s thru 50,s music with a rock and roll blend to the point of not changing
a lyric which amazed everyone who heard song"Its my party"

We know 'Song To The Siren' quite well. It made the regular rotation on Muchmusic back when we were teens.
No one in America was making this music. That's why it made a great impression.
yOU GUYS ARE SO GOOD TOGether I watch you ove and over for the songs i requested. I just you would get into
the lyrics more
If you like Roxy music try there Avalon song.
I would like to suggest a 40 years down the line song fromBryan Ferrys, album "Frantic"
co produced by the man created the artistic mystique of Roxy Mr Brian Eno. The song
is called"I Thought'it is lite and sentimental but very romantic
Heeheee.

My copy this is a British import as many others. Jim

The Roxy Music song I always skipped on the Album LOL But at least its a start, but it be sad if you stopped listening to them.
Robert e Lee I'm sure was Bryan ferry's lawyer back in the day
Try dire straits sultan's of swing try the longer version!!!!
We definitely know Sultans Of Swing. This was one of the songs my (Chris) band, back in the day, would play with during rehearsals.

Bryan Ferry the coolest man on earth.

Robert Lee was their lawyer.
One Velvet Underground song ever. I can't know these people.
I think you’d like Kate Bush better with headphones as a lot of the effects get lost otherwise.
we are working on getting a better set up with headphones for both of us to make things better.
Avalon please...
I think not watching Roxy Music play this live takes half the presentation away. Brian Ferry was just about the coolest guy in 1972.
You miss so much unless you see the live performance which shows the irony. Check out the video.
brian eno mad was better than uk glam rock would have put them early stuff along with new york dolls
Idolised by the Sex Pistols... >>> Punk mosh pit style.
Bogus man
velvet underground is unlistenable stick with JOhn Caaale of velvet undergrroun e has made
sssssome great music
Bryan Ferry the vocalist can't sing.
Yet he's sold millions of records and you ??
