For Your Pleasure

Sealed - Brand new LP, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Half-Speed, 180g vinyl.

For Your Pleasure is the second album by English rock band Roxy Music, released by Island Records in 1973. It was their last to feature synthesiser and sound specialist Brian Eno.

For Your Pleasure was originally released by Island Records in the United Kingdom and Warner Bros. Records in the United States.[1] It has been subsequently reissued by Polydor Records in the UK and Atco Records and Reprise Records in the US.[1]

As with the debut Roxy Music album, no UK singles were lifted from For Your Pleasure upon its initial release. The non-album single "Pyjamarama", backed with "The Pride and the Pain", was issued in advance of the album in Britain, peaking at number 10 on the UK Singles Chart. "Do the Strand", backed with "Editions of You", was released as a single in the US and Europe; it was finally issued as a UK single in 1978 to promote Roxy Music's Greatest Hits album, released in December the previous year.

The cover photo, taken by Karl Stoecker, featured Bryan Ferry's girlfriend at the time, singer and model Amanda Lear, who was also the confidante, protégée and closest friend of the surrealist artist Salvador Dalí.[4] Lear was depicted posing in a skintight leather dress leading a black panther on a leash.[5] The image has been described as "as famous as the album itself".[6] Original pressings of the album featured a gatefold sleeve picturing all five band members posing with guitars.
