Roxy Music - BBC Sessions, Volume 5: In Concert, Wembley Arena, London, Britain, 8-2-1980

I screwed up again! I missed a Roxy Music BBC concert, so I'll have to do some renumbering (yet again). But I'm actually happy when I make mistakes like this, because it shows there's more excellent music to be posted. In this case, I'd already posted Roxy Music concerts from 1982 and 2001. Those were Volumes 5 and 6, and now they're getting renumbered to Volumes 6 and 7. 

The new "Volume 5" is a full concert from 1980. I'd already posted a "Volume 4" concert from 1979. The main difference between that one and this one is the band released the album "Flesh and Blood" in the meantime. So naturally a bunch of songs were played from that album, including the hits "Oh Yeah," "Same Old Scene," and "Over You."

This isn't the exact BBC recording. What actually got played on the radio was an hour-long edit of this show. Furthermore, a few of the songs were from a concert a few days earlier. But eventually a soundboard bootleg of the full show became public, with just as good sound quality as the radio broadcast. So I figure why not use that? 

Remember that I mentioned above how I renumbered the recently posted 1982 and 2001 shows. If you want the revised versions, with updated cover art and such, here are the links:

The cover photo comes a Roxy Music concert at the Wembley Arena in 1980. But I don't know if it's from this exact concert, since the band performed there the two previous nights as well.
