I'm torn between More than this and Dance away as my favourite all time track.
I much prefer their New Romantic 80s stuff, to their edgier 70s stuff.

I do like a bit of Roxy Music, from their early Enotastic stuff to the soundscapes of
Avalon. Soundtrack of my life innit?

Both ends burning for me. Roxy music are truly a legendary band, I got to see them in Dublin a few years back and it was one of the best gigs I've been to. Ferry is so amaze!

Does anyone remember this?
It's one of the few cases where I prefer a cover to the original. It just seems to work better for me.

What's that from? Smack The Pony or something?
Oh, Big Train. I thought it had to be something like that.

Yes, I know it's a Ferry solo. Still love it though. Very smooth.

My favourite of theirs was always...
And as a solo artiste:
More than a touch of David Sylvian and Japan about that track.

Favourites for Roxy Music are More Than This and Love is the Drug.
Love Slave to Love as well. What's that other big solo hit of Bryan Ferry again? About the same time as Slave to love IIRC.

Thought I bump this up, seeing as how there's a new Fleetwood Mac topic.

Not quite Roxy Music related, but did anyone else notice Brian Eno's cameo in the last episode of Father Ted?
My dad didn't, and he loves Eno/Roxy Music.

Apparently, Morrisey claims that For Your Pleasure was the last great British album. Hehe.
Anyway, this is my favourite:
