Roxy Music, Amazona

Song from the "Stranded " album. Album notes says John Gustafson on bass, although I don't know if that's who this is or not since they have had so many bassists. I had just never seen a Roxy Music video with a Rickenbacker bass in it before. And what can be said of Phil Manzanera, one of the greatest guitarist there ever was.(yomv)

Roxy Music--to be cool and "glitter" at the same time? Yes, of course, if one sees through the "shine." Bowie did it the best, way beyond our Earth's atmosphere, and beyond the earrings and rhinestones. If a man can forgive the heels, he can look past the glitter. Roxy still turned heads! A Rickenbacker was just one of many classy accessories...

John Wetton (of King Crimson fame) played with Roxy round 74. I'm pretty sure he had a rick, even though he mostly used a Prec.
