Standards Of Living

Bryan Ferry has a new album out, which seemed a good excuse to post a Dubhed selection featuring his old band, Roxy Music.

More by accident than design, over half of this 10-song is drawn exclusively from 1973, with a few diversions from the 1980s occupying the second quarter.

A reminder that I don't listen to Roxy Music nearly as often as I should. For Your Pleasure and Stranded are on this week's playlist, for starters.

1) Amazona (1973)
2) The Pride And The Pain (1973)
3) The Main Thing (Dance Mix) (1982)
4) Oh Yeah (Album Version) (1980)
5) More Than This (Album Version) (1982)
6) Same Old Scene (Album Version) (1980)
7) Strictly Confidential (1973)
8) Do The Strand (USA 7" Mix) (1973)
9) In Every Dream Home A Heartache (Album Version) (1973)
10) A Song For Europe (1973)

1973: Do The Strand EP: 8
1973: For Your Pleasure: 7, 9
1973: Pyjamarama EP: 2
1973: Stranded: 1, 10
1980: Flesh And Blood: 4, 6
1982: Avalon: 5
1982: Take A Chance With Me EP: 3

  1. Anything on here Bryan related is great to see.. the new album has had good reviews but based on the tracks released so far I'm not convinced. Will listen to the whole album later in the week to see if it is any good..

  2. They were no dummies, that’s for sure.
