Can't agree with you there, Phil, but it *is* the last great Roxy Music 
album, I think. I remember when it came out we didn't care that Eno 
wasn't on it because we were obsessed with Ferry (well, I was) and 
whatever he did was fascinating. And Manzanera's great on it. And 
Mackay. And, of course, the Great Paul Thompson.

Hearing the first Roxy album in '72 changed this schoolboy's feelings 
about music forever. I held out until Siren and the disco crept in. 
Still bought the damned records, though. Well, you do, don't you?
