Bryan Ferry / Roxy Music – Street Life - 20 Great Hits
Street Life - 20 Great Hits is an outstanding retrospective charting the remarkable career of Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music, one of the most influential and stylish acts to emerge from British music in the 1970s and 1980s. Combining groundbreaking Roxy Music classics with key solo recordings from Ferry's distinguished career, the collection offers a comprehensive overview of an artist whose blend of sophistication, innovation, and glamour helped redefine popular music.
Roxy Music's early recordings fused art rock experimentation with glam rock energy, producing distinctive hits such as Virginia Plain, Pyjamarama, Do The Strand, and Street Life. Led by Bryan Ferry's charismatic vocals and the band's adventurous musical approach, they became one of the defining groups of the era, influencing generations of musicians across rock, pop, and new wave.
As the collection progresses, listeners can trace the evolution of the band's sound into the polished sophistication of later classics including Love Is The Drug, Dance Away, More Than This, and Avalon. Alongside these are several of Ferry's successful solo recordings, including A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall, Let's Stick Together, Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, and the timeless Slave To Love, highlighting his ability to reinterpret standards and contemporary songs with unmistakable style.
Closing with Roxy Music's celebrated version of Jealous Guy, this compilation captures more than a decade of artistic development, chart success, and musical innovation. Street Life - 20 Great Hits remains an essential collection for fans of classic British rock and one of popular music's most distinctive creative partnerships.
