Roxy Music - Country Life (1974)
This was right amongst the pomp and excess of the times. Eno had long gone and Bryan Ferry oozed confidence as the suave frontman.

commentsJust what we need, some bright and summery uplift. Beautifully packaged with embossed gold lettering and a big bold gatefold sleeve, the vinyl matches the cover and is pressed on gold nugget vinyl (Legendary Edition.
commentsAnother great Alison Goldfrapp/Will Gregory Collaboration. There’s no end to the talent of these two. While nothing will improve on my first exposure, this is one slick record.
commentsAnother all instrumental release from Tuscon’s best avant-garde, neo-psychedelic, Miles Davis Bitches Brew-era protagonists. Absolutely made for vinyl, there’s no other way to replicate and consume their retro-70’s schtick.
commentsThe themes were: _ Song of the š Earth, The Love š generation. , The heat is on!_
commentsOK, it’s quite corny in places but that only half describes this slightly easy/uneasy, but effortlessly listenable recording from Hawaii’s premier ex-shoe shining, piano shop proprietor.
commentsWow! This aināt rockānāroll, this is an electro-cabaret masterpiece. Tricky prodigy Alison Goldfrapp, croons like Liza Minelli, yodels like Melanie Oesch, and whistles like Roger Whitaker.
commentsI didn’t know anything about this recording before playing this via Tidal this evening. As the reveiw states “Saxophonist Kirsten Edkins delivers a delightful and charming batch of mainstream jazz with her engaging and exuberant debut Art & Soul.
commentsFor various reasons, I felt a little nostalgic this evening. Before Bowie and T-Rex came along, Elton was my goto artist.
commentsFantastic debut from New York-based group Asobi Seksu. While firmly in the noise rock genre, itās fabulously diverse throughout. On the very first listen there’s a lot to like about this record.
