E'G. 1973
What Roxy Music would have been like without Brian 'my son's a countryside alliance little piss-on' Ferry, i.e. really good.
Eno's strained singing fits the dark glam tone well. Robert Fripp injects some nice guitar without taking over.
NF owns a VCS3 (the synthi model that came in a plastic case) that belonged to either Eno or Hawkwind - I can't remember which. I borrowed it many years ago and never managed to get anything but squelches out of it.
Sixteen Deluxe do a good version of Here come the warm jets (Eno's homage to being pissed on) on Backfeedmagnetbabe. Worth getting. Have a listen on here.
But for now, there's track 10 coming on now - lie back, close eyes, enjoy the flow!
'Oh cheeky cheeky, oh naughty sneaky'
