ROXY MUSIC In 5 Magazine Covers

Posted on by JL

British icons ROXY MUSIC were crème de la crème on the showy, flashy, glittery
glam rock scene with their first spectacular run between 1970 and 1976 with 4 terrific
longplayers. Their flamboyant, androgynous costumes and makeup were part of their
eye-popping identity.

Eccentric keyboardist/musical orchestrator Brian Eno, who looked like a sort
pop star from outer space left after 2LPs and started a remarkable career as a
producer (U2, David Byrne, Paul Simon, David Bowie, John Cale, and many more)
and a solo/collaborative artist.

A first reunion occurred between 1978 and 1983,
a 2nd one between 2001 and 2011, with 3 more
albums added to the first 4 ones.

The now 80-year-old Casanova frontman Bryan Ferry had
the most notable solo career of all RM members with 16 LPs.

Let’s have a look back at history with 5 magazine covers.

Significant longplayers from the past

23 October 2025

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.”

Former glam rockers ROXY MUSIC have started this year with sharing, on all platforms, themed EPs with a selection of songs from their rich archives. So far they gave us the ‘Rockers’, ‘Dance Floor’, ‘Ballads’, and ‘Art Rock’ EPs.

This is the image coming with the Dancefloor EP, in the similar
glamorous and sexy pinup women style as their first LPs in the 70s.
