Rhapsody

Robert Christgau

The live album Viva! captures Roxy Music at their insane 1970s best, when the debonair-but-lurching Bryan Ferry was more Casanova Frankenstein than crooning Lothario. At this point, Roxy Music were a great live act, putting a certain Continental spin on '70s Art Rock then shooting it through with Pre-Punk intensity.

- Nick Dedina

This isn't bad, not for a live album issued in lieu of current studio product. Concentrating on relatively obscure material from the first two LPs, which always sounded a bit thin, it adds humor and some untrammeled Phil Manzanera to "In Every Dream Home a Heartache." But I prefer the studio "Bogus Man" and "Chance Meeting," thin and all. And that is bad. (Grade - B)
