Roxy Music Live in Concert
Roxy Music was formed in 1970 by lead singer and songwriter Bryan Ferry and bass guitarist Graham Simpson. Ferry had just lost his job teaching ceramics at a girls' school for holding unauthorized record-listening sessions. Ferry decided to start a band and put out ads to attract musicians. He enlisted Andy Mackay on saxophone and oboe, Roger Bunn on guitar and Dexter Lloyd on drums. Brian Eno, who has found enormous success as a solo artist, was also brought on for synthesizer and treatments, although he left soon after the group's second album release. The difference in style between Ferry and Eno would create the band's signature sound, but it also eventually drove the two apart. Roxy Music gained critical attention quickly and was signed to Island Records almost immediately upon the release of their debut self-titled album in 1972. The album was a significant success, reaching No. 10 on the UK charts. Things really heated up when the group performed their debut single "Virginia Plain" on BBC's "Top of the Pops." The song was later listed on Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Debut Singles of All Time list. Their signature style was displayed for the world and became a template for the glam trend in the UK. The band released their second album, For Your Pleasure, in 1973. This album turned out to be Eno's last project with Roxy Music, a lineup change that would send the band in a new direction. They released Stranded in 1973, Country Life in 1974, and Siren in 1975. Rolling Stone referred to Stranded and Country Life as marking "the zenith of contemporary British art rock." The group took a break in 1976 before reuniting to record Manifesto in 1979, Flesh and Blood in 1980 and their final studio album Avalon in 1982. After taking a second and final hiatus that began in 1983, Roxy Music got back together for their first reunion tour in 2001. Since then, Rolling Stone has ranked Roxy Music No. 98 on their "The Immortals -- The 100 Greatest Artists of All Time" list, and in 2019, Roxy Music was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Over the course of their career, Roxy Music have played many famous venues, like the American Airlines Center in Dallas and the TD Garden in Boston.
Great show from start to finish. St Vincent was a great opening act and Roxy Music too it to the next level- graphics, light music so much fun. I was hoping for an encore, who wouldn't but with almost 2 hrs on stage for opening night, I loved every minute of it!
The show was incredible. Did not disappoint. The band was so tight unreal. Brian still so elegant fantastic. Loved every minute of it.
Good show, BF Voice needed some back up for the Avalon songs, he seemed unable to hit the high notes with his smooth crooner voice of the past, musicianship was spectacular but the vocals were disappointing. We were saying that he should have used the Phil Collins approach with Genesis in that he had some strong vocal support to hit the notes he was no longer able to hit
