The Thrill of It All: Roxy Music 1972-1982 DVD

| DVD

The Thrill Of It All: A Visual History 1972 - 1982 is the definitive Roxy Music DVD. It vividly captures the band's recording career packed with live footage much of it previously unseen in the UK and their back catalogue of promo videos. For all their imitators and admirers no one has ever successfully cloned the unique and indefinable combination of elements that made Roxy Music one of the most influential bands in rock music history. Now for the first time with the release of The Thrill Of It All fans are given the opportunity to take a comprehensive look back... at the career of a band that combined idiosyncratic experimentation sophisticated wit and a highly developed visual presentation. Following their early years with performances at the Royal College of Art and on the Old Grey Whistle Test to their iconic performances on Top Of The Pops and including live material from many of their memorable gigs the DVD is a visual feast which will satisfy even the most ardent Roxy fans. Perhaps most significantly is footage from the Montreux Rose Festival - the last filmed performance of Brian Eno with the band. With memorable TV performances for singles like Virginia Plain Do The Strand and Pyjamarama classic videos for tracks like Avalon and Jealous Guy and the unforgettable live recordings of tracks like Editions Of You and Street Life this DVD really demonstrates a band who triumphantly combined both style and substance.

Visual history of the original glam band and the only one that endured beyond punk. Byan Ferry's flamboyant feather boas and panstick, for many, defined the glam era but the band had style and substance in equal measure - a fact borne out by their enduring popularity. The band not only lasted the punk storm but, depending on who you ask, even influenced some of the fashion adopted by the movement. This broad collection of performances collects TV and concert clips, from the earliest days to the latter years, when the frock-coats and powdered wigs had been left behind and the patented Roxy suave and debonair look and sound had been cast.
