Roxy Music: Live at Manchester 1979 | On The Road Live | Full Live Show

*Roxy Music: Live at Manchester 1979 | On The Road Live | Full Live Show* - When Roxy Music began recording their first album in 1971, they created something that was identified as Art Rock. By the end of the decade, with the charismatic Bryan Ferry, Phil Manzanera and Andy McKay they had also mastered a soulful dance sound that when added to the mix can be seen and heard here on great versions of In Every Dream Home a Heartache, Love is the Drug and Virginia Plain. How did a group of eccentric, fashion-forward art school students completely alter the trajectory of rock music in the 1970s? In the spectacular archival concert experience Roxy Music Live, we trace the legendary evolution of a band that defied genres, starting from their avant-garde beginnings in 1971 to the smooth, sophisticated groove that took over the end of the decade. When Roxy Music dropped their debut album, they introduced the world to "Art Rock"—a wild, future-shocked blend of glam style, rock-and-roll foundations, and experimental electronics. Led by the mesmerizing, tuxedo-clad charisma of Bryan Ferry, alongside the sonic genius of guitarist Phil Manzanera and saxophonist/oboist Andy Mackay, the band underwent a breathtaking transformation. By the late '70s, they had masterfully fused their experimental edge with a smooth, soulful dance sound that dominated charts globally. This film captures the band at their performance peak, delivering spine-chilling, definitive live versions of their greatest masterpieces—including the eerie brilliance of "In Every Dream Home a Heartache," the proto-disco infectiousness of "Love is the Drug," and the high-energy glam classic "Virginia Plain."
