Wow, two pages of Roxy Music related discussion. Look out Ron Cameron thread. I love this place.
I agree. It's getting more traction here than it probably would have in the music forum.

Also, a great review of Siren appeared in Rolling Stone (which often takes itself too seriously in reviews):

Here are some more Roxy Music connections. Roxy Music's Avalon tour had three Backup Singers, Michelle Cobbs, Fonzi Thornton, and Tawatha Agee. Fonzi Thornton was one of the singers for Chic. Tawatha Agee did the vocals for the Mtume's Juicy Fruit which was released in May of1983. This was the same time most of the American dates of the Avalon tour took place. It went on to become a million selling hit.

And no one has yet to mention Brian Eno. (I guess you could also mention Andy Newmark, Eddie Jobson, and John Wetton.)
I Love Brian Eno’s “Baby’s on Fire” from 1973. The album that “Baby’s on Fire” is on, is entitled “Here Come The Warm Jets” released in January 1974. Robert Fripp of King Crimson fame was also part of that album. I just dug this LP out last week, it’s still on my turntable.
Some cool tunes on that Eno album. BoF is a classic. Dead Finks Don’t Talk, Cindy Tells Me, and the title track to name a few. Have you noticed the Warm Jets being displayed on the LP cover? Naughty sneaky of Eno.
You mean the “Here Come The Warm Jets” in the lower left corner? Or the jet in the upper left next to the Eno name?
Look at the 8 of Spades card to the right of that title. Although, I have seen some covers where it has been edited out.

Got the complete Ace (Paul Carrack) (1974 - 1977) collection including unreleased material & live stuff!! Also Carrack "Surburban Voodoo" (1982) is a great album which has the song "I Need You" that went to # 37 (Hot 100) with Nick Lowe & Noise To Go in September of 1982!!

“Love Is The Drug” was out at the same time as “How Long” by Ace. Paul Carrack was the lead vocalist on that tune. Thanks sfpcc, for the Great Memories.

How Long was played on tonight's Superstore.

Paul Carrack played keyboards for Roxy Music around 1980, (the Flesh And Blood album.) He also has a credit on their final album, 1982's Avalon, (Track 8 / To Turn You On.)

I saw Roxy Music at Cobo during the Avalon tour. I was 15 and it was one of the coolest things I've seen in my life. Weirdly enough I went with two people who were three years older and thought I was annoying, (I kind of was.) I still wonder why they let me go with them? Memories.

I think I’m having a deja view.
Also, just heard LITD on SiriusXM 10 minutes ago. Why couldn’t it have been Virginia Plain?
