Rating: - Exquisite!!
I have 200+ box sets in my collection, and this one has to rank at the very top. Every key album track and single are here, plus a 17 track 4th CD of rarities! And to top it all off, there is a glossy, full-color book with commentary on every song by Mr. Ferry himself, not to mention tons of cool B&W and color photos. I have been searching this one out for years, and finally found a used copy for $75.00, so yeah, it won't be cheap, but you won't regret owning this gem once you have your grubby little fingers on it. I know I didn't!! An absolute must!!

Rating: - The usual disjointed anthology approach by compilers who shouldn't be let loose on such projects...
Firstly - Roxy Music are/were fantastic

Secondly - Key tracks are missing (well documented in earlier reviews). It should have included all released output instead of reinventing history to pretend that tracks like 'Midnight Hour' never happened.

Thirdly - The fourth disc of non LP releases (b sides etc) should be available on it's own to enable all of the band's loyal followers (from 1972 onwards) to complement their already complete collections of the original albums... And while I'm at it - who made the pitiful decision to include the non album single 'VP' on the first eponymous release on CD?!! It was not even presented as a bonus track but clumsily shoehorned between songs that had coexisted without its obvious interferance. The sound quality mismatch makes my toes curl every time I forget it's there!!!

Lastly - There's no denying that the music included is 5 star - BUT it would be far more satisfying and probably cheaper to buy each album individually instead of this expensive dog's dinner...

Very lastly (Forth point reinforced again!!!) - I'm still furious that the real fans have to buy this cynical record company spin off to access non album tracks that have eagerly been awaited since the birth of CD media. Shame on the record execs AND Bryan Ferry for letting this happen...

Rating: - if my house is on fire i'm going in for this.
ok, let's settle this argument once & for all. the best rock band that ever was or is...The Beatles or The Rolling Stones? nope...it's Roxy Music & this box set is proof of it. i would put up the first 3 discs in this set against any four & a half hours of any other bands material. disc 4 is b-sides & extended versions & has some must have tracks as well. the remastered sound is incredible too. i thought i would get by with my treasured lps but these cds are a revelation. on a side note...Bryan Ferry obviously sold his soul to the devil at some point. he gets better looking all the time...and of course, there's his voice.

Rating: - Viva Roxy
While not complete it is certainly an excellent way to get an overlook of the career of Roxy Music. The only better way is still to own all the albums.
