Rating:  - The End Of Eno?
This album signaled the end of the Eno era for Roxy Music. It was apparent that Eno wanted Roxy to remain quirky and obscure. Ferry had other plans. This album also ends the Bryan Ferry's stranglehold on the songwriting aspect of the group.

Rating: - The Final Battle

Eno even admits as much, that everybody improved after the break-up
He was able to do his thing (Beautifully) and Roxy went on to be a more suitable pop offering under complete control of Ferry, not a bad thing, they ... Read More
Rating:  - Hmm
I just listened to "The Bogus Man" twice. What a piece of garbage -- and nearly 10 minutes long. If this is any indication of the rest of the album, then stay away.
