Now:
Roxy Music - 'Country Life'
I would place this at number 2 in my preferred listing of Roxy's studio albums:
- For Your Pleasure
- Country Life
- Flesh and Blood
- Stranded
- Manifesto
- Viva
- Avalon
- Siren
- Roxy Music
I believe that current releases of Country Life now have a less 'problematic' artwork for the cover. There are several parodies of the cover, such as this:
By coincidence another, erm, arty album sleeve.
Currently spinning a lovely UK original Rush 'Hemispheres'. Side 1 is OK but side 2 is incredible.

And now for something completely different:
Edith Piaf
My partner can speak fluent French, yet she doesn't like Edith Piaf. Probably it's her singing voice with its exaggerated rolling of the "R"s, as much as the subject matter she dislikes. But hey-ho, we're all different, thank goodness.

Note that Viva is not included, as it is actually a live album. I know, nobody likes a smartarse :sofa: I would have placed their debut higher, but I think the production quality is awful, dynamically dead, the album deserves better.
