'For Your Pleasure' is, essentially, a continuation of what Roxy set out to do on their debut, the preceding year, and because of that, its simply more of the astounding work that influenced, and enthralled many. But where appropriate, the album is held back just the tiniest amount by the creative tensions at play between Ferry and Eno, with some tracks being ever so slightly indifferent, in their goals and execution. However, 'slightly' is the key word, as 'For Your Pleasure' is, despite its minor niggles, a thrilling and radical slice of arty, glam rock experimentation at near perfection.
