Roxy Music - Flesh And Blood (Half Speed Master)
Flesh and Blood is Roxy Music’s seventh studio album, originally released in 1980, and presented here as a half speed mastered vinyl edition. Marking a more polished and romantic direction for the band, the album blends art rock, pop, and sophisticated new wave with a sleek, refined sound.
The record features some of Roxy Music’s most recognisable songs, including Over You, Oh Yeah, and Same Old Scene. These tracks highlight Bryan Ferry’s distinctive, emotionally resonant vocals alongside smooth synth lines, elegant guitar work, and carefully crafted arrangements. The album’s themes of love, longing, and nostalgia are delivered with poise and subtlety, creating a mood that is both intimate and cinematic.
This half speed master enhances the album’s sonic detail, offering improved clarity, wider dynamics, and a more natural presentation across the frequency range. Subtle textures, backing vocals, and instrumental layers are revealed with greater precision, making it particularly rewarding on a high-quality vinyl system.
Flesh and Blood captures Roxy Music at their most graceful and melodic, and this half speed mastered edition offers a refined way to experience one of the band’s most elegant and enduring albums.
