The whole band is brilliant here raw and heavy. Thundering bass , drums and electric feedback on guitar. Ferry’s sneering over the mic with brilliant vocals. Eno on the effects and Andy playing the Roxy Sound. Fabulous clip of the band,
Just when i think I have either seen or purchased all the Roxy tv clips along comes something else. This is really great clip. Grey Lagoons first time i have ever seen a live clip. Great x 5.
With eno or jobson the first 5 albums was Roxy music, when after the break, they became less experimental, less raw , the punk, glitter, space rock was missing , the music became more commercial. The early 5 albums were so original.
Eno on backing vocals & ambient tambourine on Grey Lagoons, awesomely weird, also a great live band always giving 200%. Great songs, playing and vocals. Modern music blah blah bland by comparison, the 1970’s what a decade for one-off bands & music!
Thats a WOW ! , from this now middled aged old geezer , just 16 when these boys literally exploded onto the scene back in 72 when music was bold and experimental and utterly brilliant , it took the passage of time to fully appreciate just how special the 70s decade actually was , i now lament its passing realizing it was a once in a lifetime period that can never be repeated . Still we who were so fortunate to have been nourished by such wonderful creative talent have our memories and YT to remind us , yes , that it did really happen ! Regarding todays dross , its fair to say in the bleak wilderness of a desert that's a real oasis to drink from.
@@dixonpinfold2582 Damn it Of course I should have quoted Peter Hammill from the 1974 LP In Camera on the famous Charisma label from the track Faint heart and the sermon the line “ my comprehensive faculties are impaired “
Was lucky and fortunate enough to have seen them in 1975 siren tour at the Uptown Theater in Chicago My Brother and Me had first row incredible performance incredible band light years ahead of their time love Roxy Music to this day still listen to this band at 66 years old great music never gets old
Roxy were based on tradition romance,movies, art, 40s 50s fashion modes progression beauty Style. Lazy unimaginative people use The Alien thing they did it with bowie too Anyway elucidate on your ridiculous and other bozos take on Alien Wee men wee green men all from the minds from corny sci-fi writers Or do Aliens ware tuxedos also and spangles Your comments are pathetic and bog standard opinions on the way Roxy sound and look Stereotyped garbage 🗑 opinions
+StartabandRoxy I see. Well, personally for me as a kid in a record store being surprised by the coupling of (albeit strong songwriting of Ferry having the sonic overlay of Eno disturbed me in a pleasing way. There was no hype regarding Eno which perhaps came later in the press. However,regarding your statement, would be interesting for you to expand in relation to your PERSONAL emotional response to the first album, leaving the critics to the side for the moment. Have a good week !
hootsmon I'm not a 70s child, I came of age in the 90s. So my focus was on the songwriting, Ferry, Manzanera, then Eno and Mackay when I heard the first album. I think Phil made Chance Meeting more than Eno for instance. And Ferry was the best thing for me.
Eno was always after attention, see the ridiculous long name. They were press darlings, Richard Williams was a friend, I think he went to school with one of them. They also had strong management and money invested, EG, who also managed King Crimson. Fripp still moans about them, living in a beautiful house, that he did not get enough money. Have you seen the price of a ticket for the recent KC gigs? Once saw them at the Marquee using a PA with Roxy Music stamped on it. Extreme noise terror.
wow...whats nice about this is a few things. 1. its the first ever TV appearance of Roxy Music; according to the "Total Recall" VHS 2. "Ladytron" is complete here, unlike the "Total Recall" VHS, and "Grey Lagoons" is something I never knew about this broadcast until seeing this. 3. this is, Without A Doubt, the most heavy, RAW, and Amazing version of "Ladytron" you will ever hear. Don't even bother with the LP version after hearing this.
This was for a magazine programme called FULL HOUSE, broadcast live on 25 November 1972. Roxy had already performed Virginia Plain on TOP OF THE POPS on 24 August.
Can't tell you how many times I've heard it live. Saw them at The Bottom Line when Jerry Hall came out swinging her tail. One of their entourage, wearing sunglasses in the total dark, tripped and fell on me.
[12 September 2020] I think I love Roxy Music more than I ever loved David Bowie. Underneath all his stardust and changes, Bowie was just a music-hall ham - merely an Anthony Newley imitator - compared to Eno and Ferry. It was Eno and Ferry who were really truly weird, who really had ideas about art, who really wanted to change rock music for the better. And they did.
Damn this isnt nearly as good footage as the Old Grey Whistle Test of Ladytron, with Manzanera in those crazy fly eye goggles and lamé tracksuit, and Eno on an oscillator in a gold sequin jacket and leopard pants calling aliens down.
Remember seeing this when it was broadcast. Bryan ferry oozed class at this time . He had all the right moves and was very magnetic. He lost this not long after I think.
@@unfortunatebeam It . I did not call it superb or unfortunate. I am not sure if my brain farts too much. I will defer to an expert on it though.Or even defer to a right online *it. Perhaps the answer my friend is blowing in the wind
Laytron sounds better on the Musikladen session but this is by no means a bad effort.The creative genius of the band was starting to hit a pace back then and the rest we now know.
Scene Roxy music when they put the lp siren out 1975 I believe I had first row at the uptown theater here in Chicago I still remember it love Bryan ferry and Roxy music❤

The first few bars introduction to this, the lilting flute over electro swamp sounds, tell you everything bout early Roxy. Shame about following sound quality
It's annoying when a clip from a great era is badly recorded, especially where the cameramen/directors refuse to simply zoom out and show the whole band or just a whole person. Constantly filling the whole screen with a face or a hand grates after a short time. The Old Grey Whistle Test version from the same time is way better to watch.
Phill has to be a radical guitarist almost distressing he carved out a niche not dissimilar to Paul Kossof. Nothing intricate with a million notes but each note he struck was unnerving.
from another planet; where music still counts.
I lay in bed & listen to Roxy Music they were really ahead of their time Brilliant
How about a hand to a great musician who helped add to the Roxy Music soundscape, and is never given his props...Andy Mackay!!!
Andy Mackey is the best!
The whole band is brilliant here raw and heavy. Thundering bass , drums and electric feedback on guitar. Ferry’s sneering over the mic with brilliant vocals. Eno on the effects and Andy playing the Roxy Sound. Fabulous clip of the band,
Great Manzanera!!!
Jaw on the floor...have never seen this. STUNNING!
Yep, it’s stunning indeed.
These guys are amazing! A band ahead of its time!
incomparable❤
Holding so much together in such a masterful way.
love the no smiling just 'AVE IT impact of early Roxy Music. Awesome band, still sound fantastic.
Eno's finest moment.
Just when i think I have either seen or purchased all the Roxy tv clips along comes something else. This is really great clip. Grey Lagoons first time i have ever seen a live clip. Great x 5.
After siren their 5th album, they took a break but unfortunately really never played this type of space rock again . Oh how I missed this style.
With eno or jobson the first 5 albums was Roxy music, when after the break, they became less experimental, less raw , the punk, glitter, space rock was missing , the music became more commercial. The early 5 albums were so original.
Phil Manzanera and Andy McKay were so perfect for this avant-garde, brilliant band.
Agree!
Eno on backing vocals & ambient tambourine on Grey Lagoons, awesomely weird, also a great live band always giving 200%. Great songs, playing and vocals. Modern music blah blah bland by comparison, the 1970’s what a decade for one-off bands & music!
Love Roxy Music !
What I like from this video is how they blend straight pop and rock'n0roll with sonic experimentation and even "classical instrumentation"(oboe)
Reminded me of why I fell in love with them - great footage
They were such a perfect noise !!! and still enjoy them daily xxx
I was a fan from early days but now find Ferry's vocal style insufferable, words good, singing woeful
Phil & Paul are in their early 20's here. Brilliant band.
😂😂 48 years later, I remember the words.

The background vocals mesh perfectly with the lead vocal!
Luv the vocal harmonies on grey lagoons........ 👍
Glam Roxy 💋💄💋🎷🎼🎧🎹🎸
Andy rocking the oboe, this what made Roxy head of the pack.
World class, utterly unique and precise.
The live performances outshone the recorded versions.
Incredible how Bryan is always dead on with the vocal like on the album while the band (especially Manzanera) rocks out behind him. Gotta love it.
Oh happy days 🤩🤩🤩
Brilliant. I remember watching this on a Saturday night on TV.
Viva Roxy
Thanks for the post! I attended msg nyc sept 12 2022 and they were wonderful! Just a cool classy group!
Phil Manzanera.. rawr
Roxy Music and a glass of sailor jerry takes me back to carefree happier times.
For you maybe.
Phil "diamond head" Manzanera.
El maravilloso primer "Roxy Music", con el genio de Eno.
Outstanding!
The SAX the SAX Andy Mackay is the best
Roxy xxxxxxxxxx
Evidence that the aliens landed in 1972.. and brought their music with them to save us from our mundane self's..

Yes, good film. Brian Slade was excellent!
Bryan Ferry is the man's name not Slade

What a gem! Great to have the camera actually focus on Eno doing his thing with his toys. Thanks so much for the upload :)

Eno talked the talk, occasional good track, but always remember others made the music. Surprised to see him playing a tambourine.

Got that right. Ain't nothin' wrong with ANY tune on STRANDED, COUNTRY LIFE, FOR YOUR PLEASURE ...
They were on the OGWT in June 1972, so that was their first TV show.
2018 im old they r still young
My first gig southampton gaumont, just brilliant love it.xx
Thanks for this. Never seen this footage before. CPL593H
[12 September 2020] I think I love Roxy Music more than I ever loved David Bowie. Underneath all his stardust and changes, Bowie was just a music-hall ham - merely an Anthony Newley imitator - compared to Eno and Ferry. It was Eno and Ferry who were really truly weird, who really had ideas about art, who really wanted to change rock music for the better. And they did.
I agree although I think Bowie was more than just an AN imitator. I always thought Roxy Music were light years ahead of Bowie and I still think that.
They set the standard for what came out in the 80's and 90's: an emo crooner up front and a weirdo on electronics in the background.
u r right but a wee bit cruel re Bowie-Is there a cruelty 'bout u? Bowie was brill-early Roxy were even beyond themselves.
.......grey lagoooooooooooooooooonnnn...😎
Nice comment! I love how BF draws that out at the end. Simple, but perfect. The guy had a great voice.
Psychedelic, man!
Super
Where's the OGWT classic. Loved that.
ruclips.net/video/XCzhAeukF1A/видео.html
Amazing songs and musicians. Amazingly bad camera work.
in the start you see bryan eno, very nice
Hi, he was in the original Roxy line up, so not surprising really!
no, but it's nice you see him play, he was only in it 2 records. also nice you hear the sound he adds. so i notice it
When the groupies get in the dressing room , you come out with eyeshadow ...
Damn this isnt nearly as good footage as the Old Grey Whistle Test of Ladytron, with Manzanera in those crazy fly eye goggles and lamé tracksuit, and Eno on an oscillator in a gold sequin jacket and leopard pants calling aliens down.
incredible
+sizone huahuauhahu your comment is so much better for who has seen the video!
if you ever find the video on the internet again PLEASE link it, it's SURREAL.
fuck they cut off the end of the video which was the best part :(((((((((((((((((((((

You think wrong
Ahh. Pleasuretron.
the haunting Mellotron is missing in this appearance , shame
Eno had voice, da?
Ferry even looks good with his eyes 👀 made up … 😉😎😉
more modern now in every way (unfortunately) Superb
Why would you call it unfortunate right before you call it superb? Brain farting much?
@@unfortunatebeam It . I did not call it superb or unfortunate. I am not sure if my brain farts too much. I will defer to an expert on it though.Or even defer to a right online *it. Perhaps the answer my friend is blowing in the wind

Are there any tribute bands of Roxy? i imagine it would be hard to do!
Yes, there really is a band called Roxy Magic. Here at YT are some videos.
Watched them last week,very good but later stuff,well worth a watch though!
Scene Roxy music when they put the lp siren out 1975 I believe I had first row at the uptown theater here in Chicago I still remember it love Bryan ferry and Roxy music❤
art rock
yeah, where's the other, even more challenging version?
the (kinda scary) acid-version ?
The very best period
When Eno left they became the playtoy of Ferry
8 studio lps in their time wasnt a great deal when you think of Ferry's solo lps
Siren i think out of their lps apart from the first 2 is their best even though it sounds very like a Ferry lp
And Manifesto onwards are also like solo lps
I think roxy with eno without Ferry would have produced more diverse music
Ferry's These foolish things is in my opinion the best solo lp of all time he did great justice to these songs 🎵
But Ferry should have wrote for motown a lot of his songs are of that ilk
Avalon has been produced in a way that is more akin again to Ferry
But ive always found Ferry to be an undemocratic person his way or no way
The Bryan Ferry orchestra has recorded some of Roxy Music and i have to admit i think its excellent
But im a big fan of Eno especially his early lps and in General is a breath of fresh air
Though i didn't listen to any of the shite U2 and Coldplay that he produced
But an innovator he has always been
Ferry retired to the world weary theme far too often which tells me that was his strength but ultimately repetative
I Love Roxy in their best guise with eno i love a lot of Ferry's music but you know your going in to a cul-de -sac whereas with early Roxy and Eno you were always amazed what was on offer
Ferry to me was a one trick pony but some of his tricks were magnificent some just repetative
But im glad i was but 12 when i first heard this wonderful music 🎶 🎵 😌
Ferry is one of the great songwriters of his generation. And you’re right, he should have written for Motown!
Who is playing bass on this? It's great, is it John Whetton?
+Shaun Kelly Rik Kenton
Must be Rick Kenton
No way before he joined the Roxh
It was Rik Kenton during this period. John Wetton was onboard a couple years later.
Don't forget Johnny Gustafson also.
What ! No Mellotron !!!
por que lo muestran tan poco al genio de Eno?
LadyStardust1979 Porque el alma de roxy eran Ferry y Manzanera
They were soooo fucking great before they went all lounge music.
Im sorry.....I just can't.
Too out there for me .....
Avalon was by far the best Roxy music ever produced. It made sense at least...
Complete musical fruit loop genius
Never saw Bryan Ferry wearing gold sequin shoulder fringe before. Must have been a passing Glam Rock fad.
Think you'll find that they were glam rock pioneers 😏
He often wore this outfit back in the early 70's
The first few bars introduction to this, the lilting flute over electro swamp sounds, tell you everything bout early Roxy. Shame about following sound quality
*oboe
Bloody fingers-obsessed cameramen.
And it wasn't even digital in those days!
