The fifth of eight Proxy Music polls, featuring Texan Siren Jerry Hall (who's just got divorced from billionaire Rupert Murdoch)  on the cover of Roxy Music's fifth album. Who says she's a gold digger? The gold digger married to the "dirty digger". That's what they used to call Rupert Murdoch, although I would never say that.  Tongue

'Both Ends Burning' from the 'Siren' album is probably my favourite Roxy Music single. Smile

Jacqui Sullivan and Doreen Chanter were 'The Sirens', the backing singers on the 1975 'Siren' tour.  Jacqui Sullivan had a song 'Moments' which finished in 6th place in the 'Song For Europe' competition in 1978. Smile

I had a real 'crush' on Jacqui Sullivan (the brunette) back in the day! Tongue

Another interesting fact, Doreen Chanter (the blonde) wrote the hit single 'Star' for Kiki Dee. Smile

By  strange coincidence, I was just reading about Kiki Dee in a biography of Crosby, Stills & Nash, where it said the original French version of "Amoureuse" was recorded by Veronique Sanson, who just happened to be dating - and later married - Stephen Stills in 1973, although their "Amoureuse" didn't last long as they were divorced in 1979. Broken Heart

Eno again. The A-side is a little bit patchy, but man that whole B-side is up there with Henry Cow's Unrest A-side in regards to perfect album sides (paired with a weaker one).
