I don’t usually like to post late-life reunion videos here. It’s depressing to see the old heroes past their peak. But I have to recommend the most recent Roxy Music tour DVD. As you can see below, they performed so perfectly and beautifully that it’s impossible not to be amazed all over again. This is no lazy check cashing comeback. Roxy did the music justice. So what if they’re over the hill…Ferry still looks handsome. If I recall it correctly, by the end of the show the young woman who played keyboards and violin earned the biggest cheers. Also, if I recall correctly, this one video isn’t from the DVD Roxy Music Live at the Apollo, but it’s similar. Here, as there, the choice of For Your Pleasure as closer is sublime. They couldn’t have played it better being young.
