Another reissue but this time it’s one that is new to vinyl - 2001’s Best Of that was released to coincide with their reunion tour.

This may suit someone that wasn’t interested in the back catalogue reissues but would prefer a one off compilation. Or there may be people, like myself, who buy anything and everything Roxy/Ferry that is released! :D

I remember thinking this being unusual when it was released as the track listing goes from back to front so latest tracks all the way back to the earlier tracks - makes for interesting listening!

Yellow vinyl is available when ordered through the RM store.

I have offered the idea of a deluxe set where all three shows that Viva came from would be released as 3 full shows together.

You never know..

A 3 x cd live album from the mid 70’s would be thing to behold

I got the CD - it’s an unofficial release but still nice to have. I did have it previously on CD-R bootleg so it was good to get a silver pressed copy and one I can have on the shelf with the others.

Here’s a link where you can listen to snippets of each song:

Doubtless aided by last weekend's TV, 'The Best Of' reissue on vinyl is new at no.2 on this week's official vinyl chart, 11 on the top 100 sales/physical charts and 43 on the top 100 albums. On the top 100 album downloads chart it's no 15, whilst Street Life is 24 and The UC is 67.
