Synopsis

This documentary takes fans of Roxy Music on a journey through the band's humble beginnings to its meteoric rise to fame. Releasing four albums in as little as two years, Roxy Music quickly broke onto the art rock scene when it formed in 1971, making a name for itself as a leader in the movement. Influenced by acts like the Velvet Underground and The Beatles, the band fused the experimental approach of art rock with the smoother production of British pop, also adding to its performances the fashion consciousness and outrageous costumes that would come to be associated with glam rock. While Roxy Music went on to produce creative music into the 80s, it was the band's early albums (with Brian Eno) that had the largest influence. In 2005, Rolling Stone magazine listed Roxy Music as one of the 'Greatest Artists of All Time'.

5.0 out of 5 stars An influence which has lasted through the years, 24 Oct 2009
By Mr. Bernard Brannigan "Bernie Brannigan" (Belfast,Northern Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This DVD is essentially an extended version of the documentary shown in 2008 on BBC4.It traces the history of one of the most important and influential bands in rock history-Roxy Music.
Their influence is so wide and deep in modern music that often the radical nature of Ferry's original vision(fleshed out with Eno,MacKay,Manzanera and Thompson) is forgotten.This documentary sets this to rights.Artists as diverse as Bono,John Taylor(Duran Duran),Martin Ware(Heaven 17)and Siouxsie Sue(Siouxsie and the Banshees)all contribute their opinions.
This extended version includes pieces on Antony Price and his work on the covers of Roxy Music albums,on Eddie Jobson:the violin playing wunderkind who replaced Eno in 1973 and on Gary Tibbs and the ever changing Roxy bass players.
This is an excellent introduction for new fans and a great stroll down memory lane for Roxy fans(who know how important they were).But....the most tantalising bit of the DVD is the footage of the work on the 9th(i.e NEW!!!) Roxy Music album with Ferry,Manzanera,MacKay,Thompson AND ENO(!!!) all in the studio.They could be about to do it all over again!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Total Recall, 21 Oct 2009
This is not Total Recall. It features interviews and short clips of various tracks over the years with comments from band members and those that were influenced by their music. Includes live versions of Both Ends Burning, Editions of You and Do the Strand from Dock Rock 2006
