Out of the Blue

Roxy Music playing Out of the Blue on German television (1975).  Witness a great moment in televised live music, this band smokes!  Check out Brian Eno replacement Eddie Jobson's violin solo!  I'm not sure if the American music press ever recognized Roxy Music as the rock & roll/punk avant-garde that they truly were.  Every time I see a clip from the 1970's RM appear to have arrived from outer-space already having mastered some of the musical instruments found on earth, but uninfluenced by any existing musical style or genre.  Out of the Blue, indeed.
