What Are You Listening To?

[CRAZY-HORSE]

ROXY MUSIC "avalon" cd/vinyl, 1982.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM

i guess this album goes here in "pop" as that it what it is, as opposed to their artsy sounds of the 1970s...!
got this one in vinyl when it came it...purely on the strength of their previous single "jealous guy" which i loved....and recEntly upgraded to the cd version...
man, these synth sounds sound so crystal clear on cd and luckily it doesnt lack the warmth of the vinyl version neither.
look,
im not a big fan of these guys, have a best of set, some of which is brilliant,the rest i find unlistenable drivel...maybe its too 'artsy fartsy' for my tastes, i dunno, but millions obviously disagree because Ferry is still touring the world to rave reviews and huge crowds...so who am i to criticise!, but the same goes for this one also, either love or loathe the tracks..
but all up this is a pretty good album, a couple of tracks i dont like but several which are to die for IMO.
some nice seductive sounds on here along with Ferry's smooth 'crooner-like' vocals and easy listening sounds to compliment it all beautifully...
allmusic pro's give this one full marks(5/5).
