Roxy Music: For Your Pleasure (Vinyl LP)

Roxy Music are set to release newly-remastered half-speed editions of their legendary self-titled debut album and its acclaimed follow-up, For Your Pleasure. Both titles have been afforded a fresh Half-Speed cut by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios in London. To reflect the audio, the albums have had their artwork revised and with a gloss laminated finish so that each album is not just a record it’s a piece of art.

1973’s For Your Pleasure is the second and final album Roxy Music performed with Brian Eno, who left the British band over what seemed to be creative differences. After their excellent self-titled debut, these guys could have played it safe, but they instead pick up where they left off and ventured into uncharted territory. Brilliant glimpses of bold avant-garde rock highlight key tracks such as the brash and confident opener 'Do The Strand', the elegant 'Beauty Queen', and the signature cut 'Editions Of You'.

Roxy Music isn’t afraid to get a little weird on us and test our patience; case in point is 'Bogus Man', an instrumental that takes its sweet time during its 9 minute duration.
