Customer Reviews

Roxy Music - Avalon

I received the album in December of 1982, vinyl of course. All I can say to show you just how good this album is this...of all the albums I have bought over the years, I still have this one. The lushmess of the arrangements, Ferry's voice swooping in and out and around, above and below the sometimes driving, sometimes dreamy rhythms...the sound of it, the feelings and emotions engendered by it...a true aural work of art. Ferry and Roxy Music peaked with this album...nothing before or since resonates at the sub-conscious level as does this album...Joy Division and The Smiths were but the pretenders to the suave melancholia personified by Ferry. Buy and enjoy, with the lights down and the candles lit...

EXCELLENT ALBUM !

THIS ALBUM NEVER GOT THE CREDIT IT DESERVED - IT'S A CLASSIC - DEFINATELY MY FAVORITE ROXY MUSIC ALBUM BUT ALSO WORTH CHECKING OUT IS "FLESH & BLOOD"

This album is - in parts - one of the greatest of modern times. Its select content is dateless and sublime, the real key to the album being its ground breaking tempo and soaring rhythm. The killer tracks (1,3, 6 & 8) are imperious and constitute an extraordinary feat of aural massage that reach ever greater heights after each listening. Buy those tracks, sit back and enjoy...
