Roxy Music to release complete studio recordings in career-spanning box set

Roxy Music’s musical career between the 1970s and '80s was an unpredictable ménage of glam rock excess, art school experimentalism, and rock ambition. On August 28, Virgin/EMI will celebrate the 40th anniversary of all that coming together by reissuing the band's work in an eight-CD, four-DVD box set. Roxy Music: The Complete Studio Recordings includes every studio album released by the band from its Brian Eno-dominated, self-titled debut to the dreamy synth-pop of 1982’s Avalon, including DVD versions that feature "high-resolution audio." Each album will also retain its original cover, many featuring whichever European model was bedding Bryan Ferry at the time.
