@gregmcable 3 месяца назад

Yes. I think the difference between Ferry and say, Dylan ( who Ferry describes as his idol) and say Leonard Cohen, is that Ferry very much wrote as a man of his specific time; he recognized and wrote in the current popular culture. As such, his songs are powerful and poetic documents of his time, while it could be said the Dylan and Cohen wrote for all time. Ferry has more in common with another great poet, Joni Mitchell. This all said, I include Ferry in my top 5 pop song writers and hey, that voice!

@TheAcarch2 2 года назад

I bought this album in 2018 at a Value store after noticing how intriguing the cover was. Read a little bit of the info on the back and saw it was made in 82. I figured I'll just put myself in the context of that year and see how it goes. Heard the first track and immediately recognized it so I was pleasantly surprised, but what happens when you continue listening to the entire album is hard to describe. It is spiritual and timeless, you are left feeling a thousand years wiser. It truly is, as they say, a masterpiece.

Warren, I've listened to Avalon probably 500+ times over the years. Your production contacts add real depth to your stories, the 75 foot stairwell reverb discussion was fascinating. You didn't mention that Playboy ranked Avalon as the "Best Makeout Album of the all time". Well, that was the rumor back then.

That was no rumor. And it wasn't the men who made it that way. Women were more than ready to admit they were all aboard with the record on in the background. I won't say it seduced women on its own, but if you had a girlfriend, it was a great album to take a journey with.

I remember when I first played the CD in my recording studio. Better said, the song "Avalon". LOUD. When I heard the tape hiss in the very beginning, I smiled. Obviously it was recorded hi speed without Dolby, and Clearmountain did not want to hide that analogue hiss....And then the percussion and drum presence showed why. Avalon became the new calibration "meter" for the big studio monitors in many studios I bet. And Neil Jason on bass... what a underrated monster.

Avalon was the first time I had discovered an album that resonated so much with my personal tastes, and was in my opinion from top to bottom a masterpiece. Every freaking track was a pleasure. It seemed to me like a guilty pleasure because I knew of no one who was in to the album like I was. Time has vindicated my judgment of the album as a masterpiece. It stands alone in my opinion as there is nothing else remotely like it. Roxy Music was indeed a legendary trailblazer in music.

@65Fender 2 года назад

Great video and timeline! A friend turned me on to Roxy's first album and I've been a fan ever since. I was fortunate to see them in Cleveland when they toured in support of the Country Life album. They opened with Prairie Rose, and as the intro built up, Bryan Ferry calmly sauntered out stage right in a sequined evening jacket, as if he knew the exact number of steps required to get to center stage without hurrying. At the crescendo of "Texas" he was spot on at the mic with "Oh, that's where I belong it seems to me...". Great show, the band was tight, and every time I hear Prairie Rose now I re-see that cool, silky smooth entrance.

@rikimiki12 2 года назад

This reminds me I haven't watched "9/12 weeks" in a long time ("Slave to Love" is part of soundtrack). Also fun fact: the piano song at the end, an original composition, wasn't included in the official OST album. Even these days people are looking for it and can only be found as mixed parts from the scene when it's played.

Thank you so much for this carefully assembled, comprehensive analysis of what makes Roxy Music such a singular musical entity. To create a legacy of two completely different styles that still sound brand new is a magic trick no other band has ever done - and never will. I feel blessed to have seen them live in both iterations, and I am thrilled beyond words to get the chance to see them again for their 50th Anniversary show! Much appreciation for acknowledging their enormous impact on modern music. They've provided the soundtrack to most of my life - and that's absolutely, indescribably wonderful.

@coloaten6682 2 года назад

A great tribute to an incredible album & band. Roxy in all their incarnations/periods were artists in the true sense of the word. They were expressing ideas, trying new things, not sticking to the accepted ways of doing things and the results were amazing. Really brilliant musicians. The engineering also stands out for the quality that complimented the music. I saw Ferry in I think 87 in Germany. Absolutely loved it. When they did Avalon and Yanick Étienne sang her part she just kind of slipped onto the stage from behind the curtain. You could hear her before you could see her. Absolutely incredible voice. Crystal clear and powerful. Really made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Sadly she died March this year aged 64. Thanks for this video Warren, Roxy are a real fave of mine for many years! P.S. That part of the UK, the north east, has produced some incredible artists. Here's a short list: Bryan Ferry, Sting, Mark Knopfler, Brian Johnson, David Coverdale, Eric Burdon, Paul Rodgers, Chris Rea and Trevor Horn. All within a radius of 100 miles or so!

In 1980 Japan released Gentlemen Take Polaroids....I feel there are some parallels in musical approach and production. This is 2 years prior to Avalon. Whilst Japan owe a lot to Roxy music as a major influence, in their later years , Japan too were attracting attention within the industry with regards to new stylist approaches and great production. Steve Nye is worth mentioning here. Love to see your take on Japan and the huge catalogue of solo/collaborative work of David Sylvian. Warren your generous and in depth breakdowns are so valuable and just pain fun to watch. Thank you so much.

What an awesome video and an awesome album. I have been lucky to have seen Roxy Music several times and have been blown away every time.

Love your rant about out of step critics. Avalon is one of my all-time favourites. I clearly remember listening to the title track Avalon played very loud in an empty club, a few days after my daughter was born. It sent shivers down my spine. As you started Warren it is and will always be an Roxy's all-time magnus opus.

How timely! I’ll be going to Toronto for the Roxy Music show with the original lineup (minus Eno) on Sept.7, where they are kicking off their world tour. Probably their last tour, I think. The night before, it’s Bauhaus, same situation, original line-up, last tour.

I reckon I have listened to Avalon in its entirety probably 1000 times. The 2003 SACD 5.1 release prompted to me to build a dedicated room with a Trinnov processor to extract the very best transparency and precision from the Sacd, coming home from a tough workday it always transports me to an ethereal place and never ceases to relax me. Surprisingly enough the bonus track Always Unknowing is my favorite, never can understand why it was not included aside from on the 5.1 sacd, Neil Hubbard's guitar work towards the end is otherworldly. The cover for Avalon was shot here in Ireland at a hunting lodge overlooking a lake in Connemara, County Galway. Ferry would spend time here prior to the recording in the Power Station and Nassau and wrote much of Avalon at Crumlin Lodge. The lodge was owned by Ferry's then wife's Lucy's father Patrick Helmore. The model with the Helmet is Lucy. Sadly the Hunting Lodge burned down in 1997 and Mr Helmore died in the Blaze. It was a remote wooden Lodge built by the British military in the late 1800's as a officers retreat. Sadly Lucy also died here in County Clare in 2018.

I used to listen to my dad's vast LP collection when I was a kid growing up in the 70s & 80s, and I remember with fondness listening to his Roxy Music albums. Do The Strand and Virginia Plain were 2 of my favourite songs, but the Manifesto was the Roxy Music album I listened to the most, and the songs Dance Away and Angel Eyes were great in my eyes 👍

Many albums from the 80's stand out, however Lexicon of Love - ABC or anything by Sade always gets my vote

@Producelikeapro 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing, Simon!

@slowmarchingband1 2 года назад

Any song from Lexicon of Love still jumps out of the radio. I saw ABC live in the 80s and they were really good.

@terrytube5247 2 года назад

I had Beauty Stag on LP waaaaaay back. Can't find it on CD (reasonably priced) here in Canada.

@christop997 2 года назад

Flesh and blood pushed Lexicon of love off the top of the albums charts in the UK when originally released or it was the other way around at the time

I was 14 in 1978 and swapped the latest Ramones album for For your pleasure wow I was transported to somewhere I could escape to. Every Roxy album has a special place in my heart. My wife and I went to see the 50th tour and thoroughly enjoyed it. Viva Roxy Music.

@vinnyreed723 2 года назад

What a coincidence, picked this album back up after a long while like a week ago when I heard More Than This on the radio. Absolute classic album, has a nice melancholic feel to it

Hi Warren I've been a Roxy Music fanatic for decades. I'm astounded how fabulous this documentary of all things Roxy is. The best I've seen on here. Many thanks Rich 👍
