Something really interesting has recently surfaced‭ ‬-‭ ‬Roxy Music demos for the Avalon sessions.

The person who released them is calling the collection‭ "‬The Avalon Tapes‭"‬.

The demos were never meant to be released to the public.

I have always loved Avalon and consider it to be one of my favorite records.‭ ‬It is a sublime work.‭

For all who enjoy the record,‭ ‬it is a real treat to now hear the songs in their early stages,‭ ‬to observe how the songs were developed.‭ ‬In addition to being able to hear early versions of the songs that we are familiar with,‭ ‬the Avalon Tapes also has other songs that the band was working on at the time,‭ ‬but didn't add to the final cut for the album nor did they ever release them to the public.

On the demos,‭ ‬the lyrics hadn't been completed for the songs so Bryan Ferry mumbled ‬sounds‭ ‬in a‭ ‬melody suggesting lyrics.

Surprisingly,‭ ‬I‭ ‬find that I like The Avalon Tapes as well as the completed record.


After The Avalon Tapes,‭ ‬I am including the entire album Avalon with the songs in order as they originally appeared.‭
