Manifesto (Half-Speed Remaster LP)

In the four years between 1975's 'Siren' and 1979's 'Manifesto' pop music had undergone a series of seismic shifts, with both disco and new wave threatening to cast into obsolescence many of Roxy Music's contemporaries. No such worries for Roxy, however.

Kicking off with the title track - as strong a statement of intent to begin any album - 'Manifesto' effortlessly surfed the 1979 zeitgeist and delivered some of the band's best-loved songs to date.

Each Roxy Music album has been reissued with a fresh Half-Speed cut by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studios, London. To reflect the audio, all eight of the Roxy Music studio albums have had their artwork revised and with a gloss-laminated finish, so that each album is not just a record - it's a piece of art.
