  • Roxy Music is an English art rock band formed in 1971 by Bryan Ferry, who became the group's lead vocalist and chief songwriter, and bassist Graham Simpson. The other members are Phil Manzanera (guitar), Andy Mackay (saxophone and oboe) and Paul Thompson (drums and percussion). Former members include Brian Eno (synthesiser and "treatments"), and Eddie Jobson (synthesiser and violin). Although the band took a break from group activities in 1976 and again in 1983, they reunited for a concert tour in 2001, and have toured together intermittently since that time. Despite a 18-year gap between activity Roxy Music never officially split up. Ferry frequently enlisted many Roxy members as session musicians for his solo releases.
    :: The Main Thing ::
    Look at my hand
    There's a soul on fire
    You can lead me even higher
    The main thing
    Everybody knows
    When a good thing's gone
    You can really turn me on
    The main thing
    You run through here
    With your words of sand
    I can nearly understand
    The main thing

    Phil Manzanera is a minimalist guitarist. What he doesn't play makes him great! Very under rated player. That always impressed me about him...

      100% agreed, his restraint on this song is a big part of why I admire him. On the other hand he can also be incredibly fierce. He's great at both.

      Spot on. He's been a huge inspiration for me as a player because he puts the song first. He's got tremendous chops but he doesn't bore you with a million meaningless notes. It all works, it all adds up to a proper summation.

    I am happy to watch this video. Nice memories. I was at this concert at the time and really enjoyed it. I was right under the stage and watching everything closely. I have always liked Roxy Music very much. Especially when they were promoting the AVALON album. And that's not all! This evening they also had a concert by King Crimson:))) SuuuuuPeeeRRR !!!!

      The Great Paul Thompson is fantastic as Roxy’s original and main drummer. He also played on Bryan’s solo tours over the 2000’s. Andy Newmark, who got his start at 17 with Sly and the Family Stone, is incomparable. Brings swing and R&B drumming to some of Brian’s greatest touring bands. Here, sitting in with Roxy.
