MY REACTION.......AFTER A HUNDRED OR SO LISTENS.......STILL GOOSEBUMPS. Viva Roxy Music live album is next next level.
Absolutely!!!
One of the greatest albums of all time. So different in 1972.
"the trees were taller, when you were young"... first listened to this album when I was 19... 49 years later it has acquired new meaning
I have been a Roxy Music fan for nearly 50 years! Still sounds fresh, interesting and groovy!
We agree.
Over 50 years for me, never tire of them.
Can you imagine being an American teenager in the early 70s and hearing this for the first time ? It blew me away . As I got older the last turn into the lift up part resonates stronger .
Pre 3 mins 30 seconds the wind instrument is a soprano sax, after that it’s a tenor saxophone. The sound is also being treated by Eno.
alto throughout.
Not a guitar solo, but two guitars. This is a timeless song, very inventive, with build.
Early 80's at Kent State. Finally bought this first Roxy album after checking out the hot chicks on the covers for years.
It's my favorite Roxy song, but it took a while to hook me.
40 years later after marriages, career, divorces, losing my financial ass in the late 2000's and losing an adult child, I hear If There is Something in the Sheetz gas station last summer in Akron.
I've played it more than a hundred times in the last several months. It's a safe place.
My favorite Roxy Music song
I did not realized how good this song is until I saw the movie Flashbacks of a Fool, I recommend you to see this movie
I think they moved to the casbah rather than a rock bar. This song is just incredible.
Masterpiece!
That first album is evolutionary for rock.
Like the sky cracked!
Full experience. That's for sure...Randomly picking out Bartok. Sibelius. Etc etc... Lift up!
Utterly utterly intense I still have the album..potatoes roses and a shiver down the spine ..and felt at several live performances..or 2 am with wine memories sadness ansd moods.
..tbankyou Mr Mackay
It's an incredibly sad and moving song.
It’s an oboe played thru whatever device Eno came up with.
Song has a life of its own.. so much feeling and emotion after the first couple of minutes. Cant listen to it without thinking of the "flash back" film
I like the you you guys don,t act like experts , you just listen to the music and react
I haven't come across any reaction channels that do that
The song is about finding love when there young then being together then in their old age remembering !
Well we were all young and heard that guitar..and tbe grass was greener
Been listening since the 70s they are off the planet original now they have Oliver guitars the gorgeous jorga Chalmers sax and keyboards just awesome check out " like a hurricane " nuits de fourfiere live
Singer Brian Ferry's concept for Roxy was sort of retro/futuristic/sci fi. Hints back to 50's rock n roll but with early 70s Glam rock. The inside of the gatefold sleeve to this album shows what they were about.
Roxy, talented and innovative 👍
I first heard this in 1972, as a fourteen-year-old. Instantly almost all the music I had heard before became redundant.
Thank you for doing this track from Roxy Music's self-titled first album. It's an excellent song and very typical of early Roxy Music. Yes, it is an Oboe, and they used to use phasing.
The reason I was thinking wah pedal was because it felt controlled, not like a phase. Unless they were manipulating the phase in the booth.
@@hanierfamily They did use to play instruments through the synth to alter the sound, but on the live version of this song it does sound like a wah pedal.(and I have always thought it was a sax playing)
@@hanierfamily At this time Brian Eno was in the band, he did most of their electronic effects, at end of another song from their second album 'For Your Pleasure', there is a lot of phasing done, it's one that would be good to react to, 'In Every Dream Home a Heartache', Roxy Music were very experimental and tried many different effects on their tracks.
It’s an alto sax, not an oboe - and I used phased when I covered this in the tribute band Roxy Musique
@@thesongsofthestrawberrythi3902 Well, according to the details given on the vinyl album, that gives an Oboe as the instrument played by Andy MacKay, as well as him supplying backing vocals, but on the live version which appears on the album 'Viva!' it lists it as saxophone, I suppose it depends which version you go with.
Kia ora hello guys from Aotearoa new zealand My partner and I saw Brian Ferry a few years ago with my dad and his partner and my partner's mum it was a great night that Man can sing
How can you not fall for Cynthia and her genuine goodness ?
P.S. my lady is cut from the same cloth and is goodness incarnate.
Thank you! A 'similarly' structured song on the same album is The BOB (Medley). BOB is an acronym for Battle of Britain. Very evocative and unusual song.
Love this song.
Cynthia's reaction is amiable ^-^
"His vibrato is kind of crazy sometimes" is an understatement.
That was fun. Loved watching you guys take that journey. From the misleading, almost goofy beginning putting you off balance for the next section, realisation dawning that you have no idea where it's going, digging the ride. Great song. Slightly marred for me by the interruptions.
Sentimental fool is similar to this. The song that leads into it - The end of the line' is also good.
We did Sentimental Fool
Eno and his box(es) of electronic/synthesizer magic 'treated' many of the instruments, giving them a different quality to the ones they would normally have.
Your're right, it's an oboe. I assume by now you're aware of the magic ingredient in this period of Roxy Music. That magic ingredient is Brian Eno, who not only played around with the synthesizer, but also treated the guitar and oboe. 2 powerhouse brains in the band, both name Byran/Brian.
Glad you enjoyed that, particularly the clever bits.
Another video, another confirmation Cynthia that you are a Roxy Music fan. You have a lifetime of enjoyment of the wierd but unique music of Roxy Music. Enjoy. FYI: Andy McKay was playing the oboe clarinet.
You will never like every Roxy track, but some you will find yourself addicted to!
Told ya! The Chick on the cover is pretty hot too....I'd walk a thousand for her.. Loved the 70's ;p
You are lookimg veryconfused again !
and you are litening it 50 yesrs to late !
ONE OF THE BEST SONGS OF ALL TIME !
has no meaning to stop after listening the first time ..
you must stat it again !!
every tune is burned in my brain and it gets better every time !!!
I love that youve reacted to both Ladytron and If There Is Something as I am looking to stitch them together as one of my future cover versions!
Ferry Vibrato!
Been watching you guys and you now need to watch and listen to some Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel from the same period, Psychomodo, Best Years of our Lives, Sebastian, Death Trip and Chameleon for starters. Fantastic.
Try She Sells off Siren. It's terrific
If you want to know what Roxy Music is about READ THE INSIDE SLEEVE OF THIS ALBUM
that noise is a saxaphone, there is an obo in there, but only at the start, you can blame brian eno for how it sounds he was the electronic genious of the band.
What an odd choice to react to!!! I LOVE IT! Yea, Roxy Music (and their members) is one of my favorite bands.
Love that you continue to review Roxy Music...please have a listen to All I want is you, Out of the Blue, A really good time, The in Crowd and Ain't that so, all great punchier pieces from their early catalog...then in contrast with the commercial success of the Flesh and Blood album withIn the Midnight hour.
"The In Crowd" was solo Bryan.
ANdy Mackay Is the wind instrument ma he was classically trained and can play and wind instrument
plus keyboards .Bryan does harmonica simple guitar accompainment and organ keyboaeds. Phil Manzanera
is lead guitarist and Paul Thompson is drums .bass is pulled in as available but always quality
SYNTH!!!
Andy Mackay Oboe
Have you guys watched 'flashbacks of a fool'?
Is that a Roxy Music song?
@@hanierfamily It's a movie in which "if there is something" plays a crucial part.
@@Ronaldocarey1 never heard of it.
God yes, with Daniel Craig. The film isn't that good but Felicity Jones miming and dancing to this song is breathtaking. 😍

It's really great you guys are reacting to Roxy Music, not many channels are.
Unfortunately, I kind of get the impression that you are more of the REO Speedwagon / Journey type of music fan
We are definitely more familiar with those bands, but we are definitely enjoying Roxy Music!
something weird is going on in every roxy music track. its a matter of degrees eveything is off just by a little and that all comes together to make something that isnt at all subtle even if the elements that make it special are. i love this band
Although I think The John Peele Session of this is far superior
Flashbacks of a Fool
Kia ora hello again my friends hay I'd like to introduce you guys to Warren Maxwell who is the vocalist for Trinity Root's and The Little Bushmen this Kiwi has an amazing off the planet beautiful voice a song from each band to check out TRINITY ROOT'S song CITIZEN live at the tuning fork and The Little Bushmen song Peaceful Man live with the new zealand symphony orchestra this man's vocals will move you 👍
It is a melloron three violons...
Great song. Try the live version from "Viva! Roxy Music". it's even better IMO. Bowie covered it with a shortened, much faster version with the often maligned Tin Machine.

Cynthia Ferrys voiced is an aquired taste, it,s like the first time you tried a beer I
didn,t enjoy it but after time it becomes quite pleasnt. there are so many subtilties
nuance he uses for particular effect
well I (Cynthia) will have to say I disagree about beer lol. I never liked it and still don't but maybe I will feel different about Bryan Ferrys voice
Beer when i think about it i don't think i ever liked it but used to drink swimming pools worth because i liked getting shit faced drunk I've never liked wine of any kind... Ok i do like VODKA BUT HAVEN'T HAD ANY IN AT LEAST FIVE YEARS I'm on the slippery slope to 53 years old and one morning almost 28 years ago i woke up it was my first day of being a 25 year old and i had a broken jaw broken nose and could hardly see my eye's were so swollen I'd gotten separated from my mate's drunk and ran into some old friends (Skinheads) who hated us punkrockers and that was pretty much it for me i gave up drinking and lossing fights with Skinheads your speed and mental agility with out alcohol 💯 👍💯💥 ps sadly these small minded hateful BULLIES are still around but in smaller numbers and not as comfortable to go prancing around thinking they are intimidating with red brace's and bald heads..... Only in numbers boy's only in numbers
@@heathcornbeef we don't drink anymore either
@@hanierfamily i don't miss it at all makes for a cheaper night out and i remember all the gigs I've been too and sober driver to get everyone home!. Hehe and here's my little plug TRINITY ROOT'S song CITIZEN live at the tuning fork,👍 and or Warren Maxwell's other band THE Little Bushmen song Peaceful Man live with the new zealand symphony orchestra,💯💥
@@heathcornbeef I agree when you try to fight under the influence you, ve lost before
the first punch is thrown, believe mean I know what your talking about. while your brain is saying let,s get it on your body is just not uo to it
Don’t know if you have a dodgy recording or your sound system is off but it sounds a couple of octaves higher than it should be, very disconcerting listening to a fabulous Roxy song
You need to review every dream house, an absolute Roxy classic
We did that song
Really not sure why you've done so many reaction videos to Roxy Music songs when you clearly don't 'get' them. For Roxy fans, we find their recordings were a mix of their own version of glam rock as well as what came to be known as 'art rock', but also just great danceable rock and stellar songs that set a unique standard for pop sensibilities. They are not for everyone. Calling them 'crazy', 'different',
'weird' rather than 'unique', 'innovative', 'original', is like making a backhanded compliment.
As a massive Roxy fan I've always found this track both frustrating and amazing.
Could've done without the shite/corny country overtones to begin with, and Ferry's brief flirtation with machine-gun vibrato was simply off-putting.
The second and third sections really shine and it's clear this always had the makings of a major classic.... if they'd just reined in those crappier elements.
Yeah, you just didn’t get it..
