Right, here we go. Firstly, hope all around are well. So, we have been blessed with 9 studio Roxy Music albums, and Viva! in that time. Could we do a top twenty of Roxy's greatest tunes from all ten albums, including Viva! The limit is 2 tracks per album. Send them to the site here by 29th December and I will collate them and list it all on New Year's Day. The tracks and the albums from which they came. It will be our top 20! Crayon at the ready! |

Cher Sadie's Boyfriend, Un très grand mercy for the intellectual challenge albeit, I make it 8 studio albums plus Viva (I wish it was 9 but let's treat singles differently and throw in 'The High Road to make it work). Also, I'm not sure that the great Zappa has understood that for the survey to be collated,the tracks have to be in order. Anyway, without further ado, Windswept has exercised his little grey cels and the definitive selection is as follows: 1) Mother Of Pearl 2) A Song For Europe 3) 2HB 4) Casanova 5) Virginia Plain (single) 6) Do The Strand 7) Editions Of You 8) In Every Dream Home A Heartache (Viva) 9) Take A Chance With Me 10) Love Is The Drug 11) Both Ends Burning (Viva) 12) Avalon 13) Jealous Guy (single) 14) Trash 15) My Only Love 16) Manifesto 17) Sentimental Fool. 18) Out Of The Blue. 19) Re-Make/Re-Model 20) Running Wild. Festive Regards, Windswept |

Jesmond - agreed about 'Manifesto' - was there a better opening to a gig either? To get 20 we need more than 2 per album and / or non-album tracks. My list is therefore: 1. Editions Of You 2. Re-Make / Re-Model 3. Manifesto 4. Just Another High 5. Running Wild 6. Spin Me Round 7. A Really Good Time 8. Psalm 9. Virginia Plain 10. Do The Strand 11. If There Is Something 12. Out Of The Blue 13. End Of The Line 14. Sunset 15. Prairie Rose 16. Chance Meeting (Viva) 17. In Every Dreamhome A Heartache (Viva) 18. True To Life 19. Same Old Scene 20. The Space Between Happy compiling and happy Christmas. |

1) A Song for Europe 2) Manifesto 3) Re-make/Re-model 4) All I Want Is You 5) Both Ends Burning 6) Still Falls The Rain 7) No Strange Delight 8) If There Is Something (VIVA) 9) Chance Meeting 10) For Your Pleasure 11) Editions Of You 12) The Bogus Man (VIVA) 13) Psalm 14) Out Of The Blue 15) Sentimental Fool 16) Spin Me Round 17) Running Wild 18) Oh Yeah 19) Avalon 20) Take A Chance With Me Good to see so many votes for the wonderful "Manifesto". When picking this list I've gone for some of the hardly-ever-played-live tracks over the staple selections - so no Love Is The Drug or Do The Strand. Great as these are I've heard them plenty and would love to hear many of the forgotten tracks from the 1979-1982 3 albums played live. And it seems I'm still the only one who wants Bryan to play "All I Want Is You" again after almost 40 years!!! |

Quote: I preferred not to choose too much single records but the jewels (imho) on each album. Viva Roxy Music! Well said pianoman - it seems to me that this is an exercise in deciding favourite RM tracks regardless of how often they have or have not been played live or how obscure they might seem. Like me and I'm sure just about everyone else here, I'm sure you've found it incredibly difficult to choose. I already already regret some of my choices but were I to follow my heart I think I'd stick with them.
