Rating: Summary: Classic vintage footage! Review: Unfortunately I never got to see either of these classic bands but this video gives me a taste of what I missed. The Roxy Music footage is amazing, especially because of the prescence of Brian Eno. He has a load of electronic gizmos on the side of the stage and adds cosmic layers of sound to the mix as well as treating the guitar with multilayered tape effects. This is Roxy Music at their peak as they do their classic tunes culled from the first two LP's.The T. Rex portion is equally as entertaining with Marc Bolan singing and playing some of the band's great tunes. The psychedelic camera work adds to the feeling of the era. The sound on both bands is surprisingly crisp and well mixed for being such an old show. A must have for fans of either band!!
Rating: Summary: Roxy fans only, makes you glad Eno left the group! Review: Wonderful quality early Roxy Music, forget the analog blue screen T Rex (not even Telegram Sam featured here). But Roxy, well wow. Even the Eno plumage can't wreck this showcase. Makes me wish I was living back in the late 70's again! A keeper video.
