I'll tell anybody who'll listen, Roxy Music clips from German television are YouTube's greatest gift.
"Pyjamarama" was released as a single only, though there is a fine version available on the live record Viva Roxy Music. 1974
From Country Life 1974

Roxy Music – Mother of Pearl / Psalm
Two from Stranded, the first Post-Eno record, 1974
Great lyrics on both tunes, and it should come as no surprise that David Byrne was a huge fan of the band.
Love the way they gradually turn this dirge into Dixieland worthy of a second line. Brilliant.
Roxy Music – In Every Dream Home a Heartache / Editions of You
Really don't know how to preface this first one. A love song, maybe? Full of hot air? 1973
"That crazy music drives you insane--This way!" 1973
Roxy Music – Ladytron
At their most experimental. Old Grey Whistle Test 1972. (Dig those unis.)
Roxy Music – Virginia Plain
Welcome to ROXY MUSIC WEEK where we'll look at one of rock and roll's most underrated, yet influential acts. (Not only are they not in the RnR HoF--they've never even been nominated. lol) We'll start at the top--Top of the Pops 1972. Their debut single.
A Perfect Circle – Weak and Powerless
Any of you Tool-heads want to let me know if the new APC album is any good?
The Darcys – Miracle
This is still a relevantly titled song after this weekend, I suppose. Plus it's about time to see if I can get retweeted by these guys again.
The Darcys – Hunting
Another band I was surprised I hadn't played before. I think I saw these guys at the Entry opening for Ramona Falls once.
Remind me in six months and I'll play something from their subsequent semi-reinvention as a electro-rock duo after the other two members left.
Radiohead – The National Anthem
Great, I guess it's NFL season again.
