Free Music Notes for Country Life
Free Music Review: Roxy's #1 Recording
Hit: 5 Stars
After reading a few ho hum reviews about this album, I scrolled up and looked at the songs again. Not a loser in the bunch. I have owned at least 5 versions of this as an LP, cassette or cd and this is absolutely the one to buy if you want to experience Roxy Music at it's best. The lineup is incredible and each song is a unique experience. If this music doesn't get you up and moving, you must be dead.
Country Life Poster
Some contend Roxy Music peaked on their first two LPs, the ones with Brian Eno. Others contend they were best on their next two LPs, without Eno. Country Life is the second LP of the latter grouping, and it probably is the highpoint of the band's career (although its predecessor, Street Life, is stiff competition). The haunting, melancholic "The Thrill of It All," the art-rockin' "Out of the Blue," the almost-pure '50s rock of "If It Takes All Night," and the decadent Berlin-before-the-War affectations of "A Really Good Time" all lead to the concluding "Prairie Rose," Bryan Ferry's campy ode to Texas and amour Jerry Hall. This was "alternative" rock before the term existed. After this, Roxy Music became an entirely different band. --Bill HoldshipRoxy Music Photos
