Today marks the 40th anniversary of Roxy Music's fourth album 'Country Life'. The album was named after the British rural lifestyle magazine of the same name. It was ranked number 387 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. The opening track, 'The Thrill of It All', included a quote from Dorothy Parker's poem 'Resume'. Esoteric musical influences were betrayed by the German oom-pah band passages in 'Bitter-Sweet', the Elizabethan flav.
