Don't you mean bloated? Then again, Shaun Ryder always WAS bloated. I'm surprised he is still alive.
saw a great documentary on him a couple of years ago - after watching it I was even more surprised he was alive…..

Roxy Music To Release New Album
by Paul Cashmere

December 8 2005

2006 will see the release of a new Roxy Music album, their first studio album since Avalon in 1982.

In an interview with The Scotsman, guitarist Phil Manzanera said he was nervous about the impending release. â??We want it to be really good and we're aware that recent records by the likes of Paul McCartney and the Rolling Stones have not been well receivedâ? he said. â??We're from the generation behind them but the dilemma for us is the same: rock was supposed to finish for you when you reached your 30s. If you don't die before you get old, what are you supposed to do?â?

The yet to be titled album will be the 44th album Manzanera has appeared on. He recently laid down some work on the upcoming David Gilmour album, which coincidentally will be the Pink Floyd guitaristâ??s first solo album since the early 80 as well.

The new album may also be the catalyst in bringing back keyboard player Brian Eno who left in 1973 and was highly critical of their 2001 reunion. Manzanera, as well as Roxy Music members Andy Mackay and Paul Thompson recently reunited to play on Enoâ??s forthcoming solo album â??50 Minutes Laterâ??.

Rumours are already circulating that Eno may once again join Roxy Music on stage during some of their 2006 performances. Roxy Music has started to perform the lost classics â??The Bogus Manâ?? and â??Pyjamaramaâ?? for the first time in more than 20 years.

An official release date is yet to be set for the new Roxy Music album. So far, nine tracks have been recorded.
Headliner = Pearl Jam?
