Well, last night I was delayed unavoidably from seeing a show, tonight I just spaced on the one I was planning on seeing. Nice job, eh? I remembered tonight's show 10 minutes after curtain time. And it's been a slow, kinda boring evening anyway. Coulda used the show. For lack of anything better I'm running the revamped editions of the first three Alien movies from the "Quadrilogy" boxset, and playing around a bit on YouTube.

So I got interested in finding live clips of the early Roxy Music and wound up with 8 great-to-okay videos from three TV appearances in 1973, which I've ganged into a 36-minute long mini-concert. Some of it is good, bits of it are amazing. God I've seriously grown to love this band (and while there are many guitarists in the world I love more than Phil Manzanera - Frank Zappa, Richard Thompson, to name two - if there was one guitarist I wish I could play like, it's him).

Here's Roxy Music, 1973:

1. Remake/Remodel

2. Ladytron

3. Editions of You

4. Street Life

5. Virginia Plain

6. Do the Strand

Brian Eno - synthesizers, electronics, treatments, tapes, backing vocals (except on "Street Life")

Enjoy.
