2CD Deluxe version. Roxy Music followed up their stunning debut with ‘For Your Pleasure’, an album that’s come to be regarded by many as the ultimate musical expression of Roxy Music’s early period. For this record the band found the freedom to develop the songs along experimental lines in the studio, resulting in an immensely satisfying musical statement. Added to Bryan Ferry’s alternately seductive and dystopian imagery, Eno’s other-worldly synth sounds and tape loop effects were propelled by the virtuoso musical powerhouse of Andy Mackay, Phil Manzanera and Paul Thompson.
Ultimately, the sum of these parts continues to earn ‘For Your Pleasure’ a place in many ‘Best Albums Of All Time’ listings and its music is as timeless and fresh today as first heard back in 1973.
The original album plus AIR Studios outtakes, singles and BBC sessions, presented in a hardcover digibook with a new essay and unseen images.
The last Roxy Music album with Brian Eno, newly curated by Bryan Ferry. CD1: the original album remastered. CD2: the AIR Studios outtakes and the Eno tapes of For Your Pleasure, the Pyjamarama single with its B-side The Pride And The Pain, and BBC recordings from the Paris Theatre and the Peel Sessions, 1972-1973.
