Half of a Decent Roxy Music Album
Though I'm a huge fan of Roxy Music, everything after "Manifesto" was pretty weak for my taste, especially the beloved "Avalon". I prefer "Flesh + Blood" to that disc because of the five gems that follow "Midnight Hour", an OK rendition of the old soul standard but couldn't Bryan have sticked to the covers on his solo albums? Aside from putting the Roxy touch on the Byrd's classic "Eight Miles High", the last songs find me wishing for the Roxy Music of old. But all is not lost! I love "Oh Yeah!"; the glam-disco of "Same Old Scene"; the lone rock song "Flesh And Blood" that sounds like it could have fit easily on "Country Life" or "Siren"; the gorgeous, heart-breaking balladry of "My Only Love"; and the sugary pop sweet "Over You". Both Bryan's vocals and the band's instrumentation are in top form but I miss the weirdness of albums 1 through 4. Still, there is some good stuff to be found here.
Brings back Good Memerys
Not much more to add ,,,Have alway liked thise guys,,can relive some good times !
Almost as good as Avalon
4.5 stars
This is a great album, very much prefacing the sound and vibe of Avalon.
Funky rhythms, amazing production, sweet guitar sounds, and lots of excellent tunes from Ferry's pen as usual.
The original Eno Roxy feel is long gone by this point; F&B heralds the arrival of Ferry as a real popsmith without the early weirdness (no one will ever touch Virginia Plain for what it is, though). Yes, the early Roxy sound was superb and unique, but so is this.
