This compilation is fantastic. Even so, it could never ever capture all the great music recorded by Roxy Music and later Bryan Ferry. The music of these artists spand over such a long period of time and the face of the music has also changed. From being pretty experimenting in the '70's to being very elegant pop music in the '80's and ´90's. But as a compilation, it does a great job at trying to capture the highlights of a career spanding over 25 years. If I am to shortly sum up the things that really make Roxy Music and Bryan Ferry special, it's the coolness of the music and then the certain atmosphere lying over it. It just smells like night life, urban European cities and love it all its forms (especially the more melancholic one, of course).

Overall Rating (on a scale from 1 to 10): 9
