Iconic art-glam rockers ROXY MUSIC (1970–1976, 1978–1983, 2001–2011)
fronted by ladies man Bryan Ferry (who turned 80 last month), released
their 5th LP SIREN on 24 October 1975, tomorrow 50 years ago.
The cover artwork features famous model Jerry Hall
crawling on rocks near South Stack, Anglesey in Wales.
Melody Maker (legendary British music weekly) wrote at the time:
“A superb album, striking the listener immediately with a force and invention
reserved only for the most special musical experiences with crispness and
vitality.”
Bryan Ferry: “Women? I have no idea. I don’t know
anything about women at all. They’re a complete mystery
to me.”
