Now playing Siouxsie and the Banshees.
Their song Slowdive seems to have been heavily influenced by The Bogus Man and Trash 2. It also indicates how good Trash could have been.
Does anyone have any further examples, where it is clear that Roxy Music musically influenced others?

Siouxsie and bassist Steve Severin met at a gig on the Stranded tour and decided there and then to form a band.
The wonderful Siouxsie and the Banshees. Ms Ballion also contributed to that Roxy documentary a few years back didn't she? Slowdive does have echoes of Roxy...but surely it's all about Can? Check out earlier Can again to hear what I mean.
Severin and Siouxsie met at Siren tour I thought...
Also, Shadowtime was a quasi tribute to Ferry.
Anyway, may I add another influencee: the Great Will Sergeant. Huge Roxy fan. Great, great guitarist and song writer.
And why not throw in Steve Jones? A real Roxy aficionado since for ever. Also a seminal musician.
