Roxy Music: Central Hall, Chatham
Caroline Boucher, Disc and Music Echo, 11 November 1972
"COR," SAID the bloke behind me after Roxy Music had finished their first number, "I like the way they take the micky out of themselves." We are in Chatham Central Hall. hotbed of local Methodists but boasting goodly acoustics for a gig. A few moments later the informative man behind me remarked that the band moved about rather like the Four Tops.
