Roxy Music - LIVE ON STAGE CD

From the start, Roxy Music prescribed a robust sequence of eccentric pop eroticism, art music experimentation, fashionista posing and avant-garde strategies. The nature of the group's innovation, as demonstrated by their first three albums highlighted the presence of an entirely postmodern sensibility at work while the thrilling nerve and verve of it all was a dissident blow against the supergroups . In a bizarre world inhabited by New York Dolls over there, and Ziggy over here, Roxy’s salacious affair with music and fashion portrayed a post-war scrapyard of lust and longing with a fat slice of the sleazy white underbelly of nostalgia. London Calling collects together three original broadcasts of Roxy’s first ever performances for German TV’s premier music show Musikladen. Showcasing highlights from their first three albums, this remarkable release captures early Roxy with and without Brian Eno and at a pivotal point in their career - as a pop phenomenon and as a cultural statement.
