Condition: VG+

Description: This U.S. Reprise pressing of Roxy Music (catalog MS 2114) captures the band’s debut at a time when early glam and avant-garde aesthetics were rebelling against both 1960s hippie idealism and mainstream pop rock. Emerging from London’s art-school scene, Bryan Ferry and Brian Eno injected stylish ambiguity, irony, and retro-futurist imagery into British rock. Though the album didn’t chart immediately stateside, it influenced punk’s coming visual language and aligned with early ’70s countercultural frustrations over political stagnation and social conformity. A charismatic moment of boundary-pushing innovation.
