Our Take

Roxy Music's "Avalon" is the musical equivalent of sipping champagne on a yacht while wearing a tuxedo T-shirt. This album is the epitome of sophisticated coolness, blending exquisite vocals, lush instrumentation, and a touch of avant-garde flair.

Bryan Ferry's crooning vocals are as smooth as a perfectly stirred martini, effortlessly gliding over shimmering synths and shimmering guitars. Tracks like "More Than This" and the title track "Avalon" transport listeners to a world of luxury and decadence, where every note feels like a caress from a silk glove.

The production on this album is impeccable, with every instrument and sound meticulously crafted to create a rich tapestry of sound. The saxophone solos on tracks like "To Turn You On" are pure gold, weaving in and out of the music like a seductive dance partner.

Roxy Music's "Avalon" is a timeless masterpiece that oozes elegance and style. It's the kind of album that makes you want to put on your best suit, pour a glass of champagne, and dance the night away. So go ahead, indulge in a little musical decadence – you deserve it.

About the artist

Roxy Music

Roxy Music - A Glam Rock Odyssey through Time and Space Roxy Music are the quintessential glam rock pioneers with a twist. Led by the enigmatic Bryan Ferry, this eclectic group of misfits have been thrilling audiences with their genre-defying sound since the early 1970s. From the glittering decadence of early hits like "Virginia Plain" to the slick sophistication of later albums like "Avalon," Roxy Music have consistently pushed the boundaries of what it means to be a rock band. Ferry's theatrical vocals and suave stage presence have made him a timeless icon, while the avant-garde musicianship of Brian Eno and Phil Manzanera have set Roxy Music apart as true innovators. With their eclectic mix of art rock, pop, and disco influences, Roxy Music have carved out a niche all of their own in the music world. Their self-titled debut album in 1972 was a game-changer, with its boundary-pushing sound and futuristic aesthetic. Songs like "Re-Make/Re-Model" and "Ladytron" showcased the band's eclectic influences and set the stage for what was to come. As they continued to evolve, Roxy Music experimented with new sounds and styles, always staying one step ahead of the curve. Roxy Music's influence can be heard in a wide range of artists, from David Bowie to LCD Soundsystem. Their legacy is undeniable, and their music continues to inspire new generations of musicians. With their unique blend of style, innovation, and pure rock and roll swagger, Roxy Music are a band like no other. So grab your sequins and get ready to dance, because the glam rock spectacle that is Roxy Music is here to stay.
