T&C Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 I would put this as one of their best at the very peak of this band, great showman and great everything: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Very unique in that they never put out anything even close to a bad or mediocre album. I drove & saw them play the Richfield Coliseum in 1983 (2 days after U2 on the War tour playing Shea's), they had by far the greatest sound of any concert I've ever been to, everything was so crystal clear. Huey Lewis opened right before he broke out, he ended by saying, "Remember, you just heard the News!" I yelled back, "Get the !@#$ off the stage!" Then it was Roxy time, you could hear them jamming behind a big black curtain. "The Main Thing" starts, the curtain drops revealing the band, and Ferry strolls out from stage right in white tux with cig in hand, too great! Tremendous show, though I did not get my fav, Sentimental Fool, but they played so many other favs, it didn't matter. I was most impressed by MacKay's Editions Of You solo front-center, he just owned the stage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuvian Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 saw Bryan Ferry in Montreal a few years back. There's no one like him or Roxy in the music world. I hear he has fallen on fragile health Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
