Item Description
Roxy Music The Complete Studio Albums on Limited Edition 8LP Box Set
Includes Each of Roxy Music's 8 Classic Studio Albums Released from 1972-1982
Half-Speed Mastering at Abbey Road Studios by Engineer Miles Schowell
Roxy Music, the art rock band synonymous with both style and substance, is issuing The Complete Studio Albums, a box set of their eight acclaimed studio albums on vinyl for the first time since their original releases. The eight vinyl albums, the first ever to be mastered in half-speed mastering (by respected engineer Miles Schowell), come packaged in a glamorous box set, befitting of a band that intoxicated with its cool cocktail of fashion, romance, nostalgia and futurism.
The Complete Studio Albums presents Roxy Music’s studio albums as they were originally meant to be seen and heard. The band’s album covers are legendary and became an integral part of what Roxy Music represented: cinematic imagery set to startling, otherworldly music. This elegant vinyl box set allows a new generation of music fans to discover why Roxy Music, with Bryan Ferry, Brian Eno for the first two albums, Andy Mackay, Phil Manzanera and Paul Thompson, is considered one of the most influential British bands: adventurous, bewildering, stylish, sexy and beguiling. For all their imitators and admirers, no one has ever successfully cloned the unique and indefinable fusion of elements that made Roxy Music.
The Complete Studio Albums includes each of the eight Roxy Music studio albums released from 1972-1982 including Roxy Music (1972), For Your Pleasure (1973), Stranded (1973), Country Life (1974), Siren (1975), Manifesto (1979), Flesh And Blood (1980), and Avalon (1982) - all international top ten chart hits. The songs were often vignettes, paeans to a world whose surface glitter hid heartache and lost: "Virginia Plain," "Do The Strand," "Pyjamarama," "Street Life," "Love is The Drug," "Mother of Pearl," "In Every Dream Home a Heartache," "Both Ends Burning" and "More Than This."
