Biography

For Your Pleasure walked glam into experimental corridors without losing dance pulse.

Avalon mastered slow-burn luxury—adult seduction as sonic architecture.

Influence threads through new romantic acts and modern art-pop architects.

High-bitrate streams reveal oboe-like synth lines, tape warmth, and breathy backing layers.

Bryan Ferry formed Roxy Music with Andy Mackay, Phil Manzanera, and Brian Eno. Their debut Roxy Music (1972) mixed 1950s style with glam rock, and For Your Pleasure (1973) included Do the Strand. Eno left in 1973.

Country Life (1974) and Siren (1975) included Love Is the Drug. Avalon (1982) was a smooth, sophisticated final album.
