The collection, which traces highlights from the band’s influential recording career in reverse chronological order, is being released for the first time in LP format by via Virgin/UMe on Sept. 2.
And it sounds absolutely brilliant, having been remastered in half-speed by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios and pressed on glorious 180-gram vinyl.
The 2-LP set includes such favorites as “Avalon,” “Out of the Blue,” “More Than This,” “Love Is the Drug,” “Angel Eyes,” “Mother of Pearl,” “Do the Strand,” “Street Life,” “Re-Make/Re-Model,” “Virginia Plain” and “Both Ends Burning.”
The set goes for $35 and is available via roxymusic.co.uk. It’s part of a Roxy Music reissue campaign, which has also seen special edition re-releases for each of the group’s eight studio albums.
“The Best of Roxy Music” is a great way to prep for that Sept. 26 Chase Center date, which will mark the first time that the band has performed in the Bay Area since 2001. Showtime is 8 p.m. and tickets start at $47, ticketmaster.com.
