This will be fun.  Five albums, one star possible for each.  Reviewed as presented, chronologically.  Here goes:Siren, 1975 - The fifth studio album, it seems to be "transitional", but not exactly.  The first two (Roxy Music and For Your Pleasure), were very interesting bits of eccentricity.  Siren showed a more focused effort to reach the masses.  Mission accomplished!  " Love Is The Drug" reached even my remote area of North America, and shared radio time with David Bowie's Young Americans singles.  "Love..." is a great song, to this day, but the highlight of Siren has to be "Both Ends Burning".  The rest is a bit of pastiche; bits of early Roxy, bits of Beatles, etc.  A very good listen, start to end.  ONE STAR!Viva, 1976 - Live album showcasing eight songs from the band's five releases to this point in time.  This is a recording of a band that was prime, confident in their catalogue, and this disc is as stunning now as when I first heard it almost forty years ago.  Given the  price of this five album set, this alone is worth the cost.  Just powerful and timeless.  ONE STAR.  I could go on, but I need to move on, to......Manifesto, 1979 - At this point in my life (I was twenty, for god sakes!), I had learned the language of punk.  The soundtrack of my life was now much broader, and much more harsh.  But this album was released here in the States during the fall of my decadence.  Side One,  titled I believe " East Side", startled and intrigued.  This is the actual transitional album for Roxy Music.  Side one shows the edge the group was known for.  Side two, again noted on vinyl as "West Side", pointed toward the station this band would reach just a few years hence.  " Ain't That So", a great song , opened this side, and it was troubling to my ears.  This album is .5 for me.Flesh + Blood, 1980 - Here is Roxy Music, in their ninth year as a band, opening an album with a tepid cover.  "The Midnight Hour" is, without a doubt, a great song.  Roxy does it no favor here.  And, really, the opening track of the first studio album in five years is a terrible version of a Motown staple?  One song in, I knew I misspent money on this.  Things get worse.  "Oh Yeah", second song, replete with eighth-grade lyrics...?  The proto-disco " Same Old Scene" is fine, if you completely ignored Bowie's Young Americans and Station To Station; otherwise, very passe.  Title track "Flesh And Blood" provides three minutes of relatively interesting music.  Actually, if not for the once again sophomoric lyrics, this sounds good today.After this came the blockbuster, hot tub, Chardonnay album of the 20th century, Avalon.  The album that my grandparents liked more than I did.  The precursors to this smash hit are to be found on both Manifesto and, especially, on Flesh + Blood, and to my ears, marked the end of my love affair with this once interesting and artistic group.The fifth album included in this package is a "live" album, Heart Still Beating, released in 1990.  Live in quotes due to the fact that at this point, a reunion effort, after all the money had been spent from Avalon, and there was no fire left.  No heart.  No beating.  Just still.  Quite possibly the worst "live" album in history, this iteration of Roxy was suffering from the "Avalounge" syndrome that would consign them to the bins along with the likes of Spandau Ballet.  Really, who thought it a good idea to cover Neil Young's "Like A Hurricane", as if played on a Carribean pleasure cruise?Enjoy the first two of this set.  Pay attention to the third disc (Manifesto), as it has one foot in the origin, one in the future.  Ultimately, each will decide which version of this band they prefer.  I can't think of a better cross-section of an iconic band's career than these five albums.Three stars only for the fact that some of the music just sucks.
