While I don't agree with the Billboard journalist's list (and, similarly, no Roxy fan can ever be "right" as to what are the best 10), I think his descriptions of each song are very good and show an awareness that is usually lacking in our American chums.

Well done , Billboard, I say .
As for received wisdom, this is a Roxy Music.

So here’s my top 10 … no particular order. Ok . Chronological.
1. Sea Breezes
2. Beauty Queen
3. Strictly Confidential
4. Grey Lagoons
5. Just like You
6. Mother of Pearl
7. Sunset
8. Out of the Blue
9. A Really Good Time
10. Prairie Rose
10. Could it happen to me?
10. Nightingale
10. Manifesto
10. Ain’t that so
10. Spin Me Round
10. The Same Old Scene
10. No Strange Delight
10. The Space Between
10. The Main Thing
10. Tara
