REMAKE / REMODEL (FABER SOCIAL)

This book tells the fascinating little-known story of the individuals and circumstances which combined to form the ground-breaking band Roxy Music - how the art school avant-garde of the 1960s met the sweat, luck and attitude of chart-topping pop. Written with the co-operation of all of those involved, including Bryan Ferry, Brian Eno, Andy Mackay and Phil Manzanera, this is also the definitive account of a new pop vision that would dominate the 1970s. From student digs and provincial nightclubs to emerald-green eyeshadow and fake leopard skin, this is about a band which invented an era.
