"THE CLOTHES WE WERE WEARING AT THAT TIME WOULD HAVE PUT OFF QUITE A LARGE CHUNK OF PEOPLE."
PIC INFO: Spotlight on a quiffed-up Bryan Ferry, singer-songwriter of English glam rock/art pop band ROXY MUSIC, as he appeared inside the gatefold to their 1972 self-titled debut LP. 📸: Karl Stoecker.
“The clothes we were wearing at that time would have put off quite a large chunk of people. What I liked about the American bands, the Stax label and Motown, they were into presentation and show business, mohair suits, quite slick. And the cover art, I thought of all the American pop culture icons, Marilyn Monroe: selling cigarettes or beer with a glamorous image. But it was a bit off-kilter as well; there was something a bit strange about it, futuristic as well as retro. All that, instead of a picture of the band, in a dreary street, looking rather sullen. Which was the norm.”
