Damn straight Song of the Day 191 is Roxy Music. I’ve a whole bunch of new music to share with you on this blog series, but just had to run this past you first. This is pure energy and swagger and 70s art school cool, with a vocal that makes me squirm with unfamiliar and delightful thoughts even now: and I can’t believe it’s taken me till just 30 seconds ago to realise the debt Howard Devoto and Magazine owed Roxy Music.
My name is Everett True. I am a music critic. This is what I do. I criticise music.
The clue is in my job description – music critic. I do not consider myself a journalist, as I do not research or report hard news. I do not consider myself a commentator as I believe that everyone should be a participant. I criticise people and in return I am not surprised if other people criticise me. It is part of the whole deal of being in the public arena.
I am Everett True. Believe in me and I have power like a God. Quit believing in me and I no longer exist.
