The other longtime members are Phil Manzanera (guitar), Andy Mackay (saxophone and oboe), and Paul Thompson (drums and percussion). Other members included Brian Eno (synthesizer and "treatments") and Eddie Jobson (synthesizer and violin). Although the band took a break from group activities in 1976 and again in 1983, they reunited for a concert tour in 2001, and have toured together intermittently since. Ferry frequently enlisted band members as session musicians for his solo releases.
Roxy Music became a successful act in Europe and Australia during the 1970s. This success began with their self-titled debut studio album in 1972. The band pioneered more musically sophisticated elements of glam rock while significantly influencing early English punk music, and provided a model for many new wave acts while innovating elements of electronic composition. The group also conveyed their distinctive brand of visual and musical sophistication with their focus on glamorous fashions. Ferry and co-founding member Eno have had influential solo careers. Eno became one of the most significant British record producers of the late 20th century. Rolling Stone originally ranked Roxy Music No. 98 on their greatest artists list ("The Immortals – The 100 Greatest Artists of All Time"), but dropped the group from the list when they updated it in 2011.
Roxy Music's final studio album was Avalon (1982), which was certified Platinum in the United States. In 2005, the band began recording what would have become their ninth studio album—and their first album with Eno since 1973 (he wrote two songs for it and also played keyboards). However, Ferry eventually announced that the material from these sessions would instead be released as a Ferry solo studio album, with Eno playing on "a couple of tracks", and that he believed the group would never again produce a record as Roxy Music. The album was released in 2010 as the Ferry solo studio album Olympia. It featured contributions from Eno, Manzanera, and Mackay (amongst many other session players).
In 2011, Roxy Music played a series of 40th-anniversary shows, but went inactive as a performing entity following the concerts. In 2019, Roxy Music were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
In 2022, Roxy Music reformed for a tour to mark the 50th anniversary of their debut studio album.

Roxy Music Lyrics
I could feel at the time
There was no way of knowing
Fallen leaves in the night
Who can say where they're blowing
As free as the wind
Hopefully learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning
More than this, there is nothing
More than this, tell me one thing
More than this, there is nothing
It was fun for a while
There was no way of knowing
Like a dream in the night
Who can say where we're going
No care in the world
Maybe I'm learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning
More than this, you know there is nothing
More than this, tell me one thing
More than this, no there is nothing
More than this
Nothing
More than this
More than this
Nothing

I could feel at the time
There was no way of knowing
Fallen leaves in the night
Who can say where they're blowing?
As free as the wind
Hopefully learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning
More than this
You know there's nothing
More than this
Tell me one thing
More than this
Ooh there's nothing
It was fun for a while
There was no way of knowing
Like a dream in the night
Who can say where we're going?
No care in the world
Maybe I'm learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning
More than this
You know there's nothing
More than this
Tell me one thing
More than this
No there's nothing
More than this
Nothing

I could feel (at the time)
There was no way of knowing
Fallen leaves in the night
Who could say where they're blowing?
As free as the wind
And hopefully learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning
More than this
You know there is nothing
More than this
Tell me one thing
More than this
Ohh, there is nothing
It was fun (for awhile)
There was no way of knowing
Like a dream in the night
Who could say where we're going?
No care in the world
Maybe I'm learning
Why the sea on the tide
Has no way of turning
More than this
You KNOW there is nothing
More than this
Tell me ONE thing
More than this
No, there is NOTHING..
More than this..
Nothing
More than this
More than this..
Nothing

I played my dad this song hours before he passed away in October 2020 with prostate cancer. He loved Roxy music and I spent my childhood listening to Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music in the early and late 80s. Will always take me back to my childhood listening to all Roxy Music and Bryan Ferry songs.And always remind me of my dad.

My girlfriend was young and beautiful. We were in college together in Maryland and she had to leave and go back to Pennsylvania. Every chance I got I stole my parent's car and drove to Pennsylvania to visit her. I was young and in love and desperate to keep it going in spite of distance, killer academic schedules, and parental disapproval.
Driving up I-95 in the middle of the night I would listen to the great WHFS and they played this song all of the time. Such memories of a magical, troubled, exciting time of anticipation, desire, fear, and hope for the future!
My perseverance paid off. I married my beautiful lady in 1990. We had a close, loving relationship and we had 2 boys.
She passed away in November after 32 years of marriage. I lost the love of my life. The pain of her passing has not dulled over the past 10 months. When I hear this song it touches me deeply. It takes me back to those days, and I cry. I'm reminded that the past is gone forever and, in spite of the hardships, uncertainty, hard knocks, and the mistakes I made along the way, if I had to go back, I would do it all over again just to be with her.

You can cherish what you had. Most people never had this rich feeling of love, hapiness. All things must pass, even the golden times, though they should not.
I hope for you this feeling of love and hapiness never fades and lives forever and you can pass your inspiring love to the new generation of people, childeren, who deserve the same hapiness ...
