A series of eight polls with Roxy Music albums up against solo albums by individual members of Roxy Music. I wonder who's going to win.

Thanks Paul, fantastic poll! You must put a lot of time and effort into these.
 Roxy Music - Roxy Music Bryan Ferry - These Foolish Things Brian Eno - Here Come The Warm Jets Phil Manzanera - Diamond Head Along with David Bowie, and to a lesser extent Steve Harley, Bryan Ferry was my musical hero growing up. He was born and raised about 10 minutes away from where I live.  Edited by Octopus II - June 26 2024 at 03:35 |

If There Is Something I can learn from this poll, it's that my predictions often turn out to be predictably wrong, having predicted an easy win for Roxy Music, it's anyone's guess who's going to win now with three albums currently on three votes each.

Interesting Fact:
The cover model on the first Roxy Music album is called Kari Ann Moller. She is married to Mick Jagger's younger brother Chris Jagger.

And the cover model on Roxy Music's Siren album was none other than Jerry Hall, who was once married to Mick Jagger and later married Rupert Murdoch. Strewth!  I wonder what it was that first attracted Jerry Hall to billionaire Rupert Murdoch.

The cover models on Country Life were Constance Karoli (sister of Can's Michael Karoli), and Eveline Grunwald (Michael Karoli's girlfriend).
I look forward to the next Roxy/Proxy Music poll! Edited by Octopus II - June 26 2024 at 12:11 |

Coming up tomorrow, I'll make sure to include the Wetton/Manzanera album in the next Proxy Music poll.

Tie between Eno and Roxy. Today Roxy gets the nod. What a rhythm section!

I gotta go with Here Come The Warm Jets, followed by the first Roxy Music album. I really like a lot of the music that Brian Eno was involved with back then. From those two records, to the stuff he was doing with David Bowie, and the No New York album.
