I may be slow at 20 years on the uptake, but has anyone else picked up on the similarities? Give it a listen now, Running Wild first, then OOTB then back to Running Wild. I don't know if they're the exact same chords, but I wonder if it was intentional - "there's that melody again"? I noticed this when I used to be Phil Manzanera in my bedroom with my Les Paul copy when I was about 14, and yes they are the exact same chords. There are several of Ferry's songs that use the same chord patterns on different songs. Slave To Love chorus and Dance Away chorus, Mother Of Pearl is the same as Running Wild/Out Of The Blue chourus but in a different key The Only face/While My Heart Is Still Beating verses/If There Is Something...I would put roses round our door.../Both Ends Burning chorus, all similar patterns but in different keys. It's the musicians he uses and the different feel they have that gives them a different sound. There are others that I can't remember off the top of my head.

Bryan Ferry placed words on a musical canvas with all the self-consciously jarring artificiality of Matisse. Andy McKay's sax and Phil Manzanera's guitars often worked against the grain of the song, recalling the dissonant musique concrète of the Surrealists. And Eno tinkered subversively in the background, sculpting the future. Culled from the Eno period, that fertile sprint between early-1972 and late-1973 which produced the first three Roxy albums, 'The Early Years' aches with soulful retro-futurist longing and screen-age sci-fi romance, from the spine-tingling 'Pyjamarama' to the mock-sophisticate ballad 'A Song For Europe'. Ferry's swooning narrators were forever entangled with disposable, man-made lovers, from the sublimely strange 'In Every Dream Home A Heartache' to the windswept 'Editions Of You' and robot fantasies 'Re-make/Re-model' and 'Ladytron'. Strange chap. But their arty agenda is only half the story. Roxy ruled because they looked like heroically decadent peacock androgynes and wrote killer space-boogie epics like 'If There Is Something', 'Virginia Plain' and 'Do The Strand', thumping monuments to tortured romanticism which cloaked their pulsating passions in arcane '30s language. Roxy were forever leaving the best party ever, too riven with ennui to face even one more cocktail. Roxy were camp in the highest sense, projecting real emotions via studied theatricality - the lie that tells the truth. Ferry, a miner's son from Newcastle, remodelled himself as a Noël Coward-esque playboy pastiche, musing on "life's inner meaning and my latest fling" in 'Mother Of Pearl'. He also sang like he had ice cubes in his knickers, but with sufficient panache to carry it off. Legendary US critic Lester Bangs branded Roxy "the triumph of artifice", an unwitting compliment which helps explain why Britain has always led the field in nuanced, ironically-slanted art-rock. America never got Roxy, preferring Alice Cooper and Kiss instead. Later, when we produced Suede, Pulp, Blur and Moloko - all Roxy's children - they got Limp Bizkit and Marilyn Manson. Go figure. 'The Early Years' is the sound of untethered genius, a steam-powered future symphony of art and soul. Every dream home should have one. 9/10 ___________________________________________________________________________ Come to Las Vegas and hear the indestructible tagline sing selections from "The Jazz Singer" !

Here's the story. My dad was in the TA (Territorial Army) during the 70s, mainly in Germany and Denmark. Whilst in Germany in 1974, he was walking past a club where they were giving away a single by Ramma Damma, the songs being Ramma Damma b/w Hot Dog. It was on the Bellaphon label, in a picture sleeve with Mr. Ramma Damma as a glitter superhero in a cape, with a pack of Varta batteries strapped to his side. Needless to say, my dad got a record and brought it back with him. And in our family it stayed until it was stolen when our house was broken into in 1990. I managed to replace many of the missing records, but have never been able to trace a copy of this one. It's been on my mind again just recently, and I wondered if anyone else knows this record, and where I might be able to get hold of a copy. It's a very cheesey plodding glam rock 'n' roll tune, and the lyrics were something like <<>> Does that ring any bells for anyone? Maybe he even was on Musikaden?

What album will you advise me to buy? Is Mr Ferry actually mocking at the audience? I like the music of Klaus Schulze, Lou Reed and John Cale, some Peter Hammill, some King Crimson. Some jazz too.

This has songs spanning the origins of Roxy Music through Bryans solo career up to the Mamouna album, Bryans second from last (or latest!) solo project. I really liked every song on it and from there you can decide what you like most. Bryans solo albums and the Roxy albums are listed in the CD sleeve notes. "Don't Stop the Dance" comes from Bryans "Boys and Girls" solo album, the first of his solo albums after the Roxy Music split I think, although I stand to be corrected by the folks on the list who are a whole lot more knowledgeable than myself. The album as a whole is similar in style throughout to "Don't Stop the Dance". The album also contains "Slave to Love" which you may of heard, my favourite Ferry solo song. Most people seem to agree that "Boys and Girls" is pretty similar in style to the final Roxy Music album "Avalon". It is subtle in its approach, and is almost at the other end of the spectrum compared to the first Roxy Music album. Indeed the first 5 albums were considered experimental and almost revolutionary in style, some describe it as Glam Rock, but I think that that is too hard a description. I believe that Lou Reed was an influence to Bryan, but I don't think that the overall sound is that similar. I think my favourite album is the fifth, "Siren" but everyone has their own preference. I but most of my cd's from www.boxman.com. I think they have got a bit more expensive of late and I'd be pleased to know of anywhere better! Most on the list are really helpful and kind, and can tell you more about Roxy Music than Bryan himself!
