Roxy Music's "Avalon" is one of the precious few perfect albums ever recorded... not one superfluous note, not one wasted beat, not one poor production choice. From start to finish, it's a masterpiece.

[@arsenalmanic]

They need to listen to Bryan Ferrys "slave to love"

[@wadsworthaaron]

@@arsenalmanic After "Avalon" (and Roxy Music's subsequent break-up), Bryan Ferry released his "Boys snd Girls" album. "Boys and Girls" was, in certain respects, like a continuation from "Avalon" (in terms of songwriting and immaculate production). It featured an all-star band (David Gilmour and Mark Knopfler alternated on lead guitar) and an even more radio-friendly set than "Avalon." The song, "Slave to Love," was a hit featured in the Mickey Rourke-Kim Bagginger film "9 1/2 Weeks," but it was only one of many brilliant songs from the "Boys and Girls" album. Like with "Avalon," that album is a start to finish classic... there are no tracks on the album that aren't brilliant.

Roxy Music - a very under-recognized band. Lots of talent. Phil Manzanera on guitar (now plays with Gilmour). Lots of good stuff. "More than This, Slave to Love..." and lots more.

[@Cheryworld]

also Paul Thompson on drums, and Andy MacKay sax and oboe (Rock and Roll Oboe!!) and don't forget the early albums with Brian Eno. Very under appreciated band.

[@Mikex973]

Roxy Music has a very deep catalogue of songs my favorite is a song off the first album they did called " If There is Something" and it is one of the most brilliant and unusual pieces of music I have ever heard you should try reacting to that.

[@markbishopmusic]

Brian Ferry singing John Lennon! Awesome!

[@DonnaGisellaTranchel]

No 1 in England 1981...

[@paulmcmenemy2688]

Released about a week after John Lennon’s murder; originally titled “Jealous Guy- a Tribute”. The “tribute “ part was dropped as they didn’t want to be seen to be exploiting the circumstances. Worthwhile checking out Lennon’s (autobiographical) original. Fantastic sax work by Andy Mackay on this version . Whistling on recording is by Vic Reeves.

[@markamos1911]

Whistling on the recording is by Bryan Ferry and Paul Carrack, not Vic Reeves -- who was an unknown 22 year old in 1981, with his career not taking off until around 5 years after this was released.

[@andrewpetik2034]

Roxy Music is a veritable gold mine of incredibly beautiful compositions and arrangements. Some GREAT songs to check out.... Avalon Same Old Scene Both Ends Burning A good solo by Bryan Ferry (lead singer) Boys And Girls

It is a truly beautiful song. Written by the late John Lennon as a tribute when he died. They were an amazing innovative band in the 1970's but Bryan Ferry always had that James Bond cool vibe.

I think you mean written by John Lennon,but RECORDED as a tribute to him by Roxy Music after his death.

[@normandavidtidiman9918]

Recorded very soon after the death of John Lennon as a tribute to him (Lennon wrote it for his 1971 Imagine album). This was originally titled 'Child of Nature' and was written by Lennon in India and intended for their 'White Album', though never recorded properly.

[@kittypuppup717]

☺️ I never heard this version before only John Lennon’s which I prefer. I love the piano 🎹 in the Lennon version. Didn’t know Roxy Music recorded this as a tribute. Elton John did a tribute as well, called Empty Garden which is very sad and all the more poignant to know it’s about John Lennon and his passing. If you haven’t listened to it yet perhaps, give it a try. Thanks for the reaction. You guys are great!

[@TZ61]

Bryan Ferry in full-on crooner mode here with their great cover of John's song. Personally, I'm a much bigger fan of their earlier rough around the edges, not for the squeamish, groundbreaking earlier music, but they also did justice to the smoother, slicker stuff. This was a very underrated band. Thanks again and cheers.

[@ericpeterson6766]

Virginia Plain, Do the Strand, etc

[@sarahjane8146]

I like all three iterations of Roxy Music, each for different reasons. I see the early, Virginia Plain period; the middle, Over You period; and the late, More Than This period as being, essentially, great music from distinctly different bands.

[@borisbrosowski6630]

aah finally roxy music. Check out "Avalon" (the song) for seeing them at their most sophisticated.

[@welshgruff]

Great record and this is the best version. Lyrics make me uneasy because I think of the many women injured or killed by men who excuse their actions as jealousy.

MEL! btw isn't Brian just drop dead gorgeous?

[@matthewpaul1111]

I've loved their music since the late 70''s. They do many styles of music from soft and mellow to punk. I think you'd both like the song Avalon. The version with Bryan and a Falcon on the thumbnail that is 4:13 in length, has the band in a beautiful mansion. He meets a beautiful woman at a party and they dance' They both look very elegant and I like her solo dance at the end. His band mates have strange expressions on their faces that could be interpreted that they are serial killers haha that was my first impression anyway. But I guess from what I got from other comments is that it is them perhaps warning Bryan that his new infatuation will not work out.
