Description
Avalon is the eighth and final studio album by the English rock band Roxy Music, released in May 1982. It was recorded between 1981 and 1982 at Compass Point Studios in Nassau, Bahamas, and is regarded as the culmination of the smoother, more adult-oriented sound of the band's later work.
The first single, "More Than This", preceded the album and was a top-10 hit in Britain, Australia, and several European countries. "Avalon", the second single, reached the top 20; "Take a Chance With Me" reached the top 30. In the United States, "More Than This" and "Take a Chance With Me" reached 103 and 104.
Avalon is Roxy Music's most successful studio album. It stayed at number one on the UK Albums Chart for three weeks and stayed on the chart for over a year. Although it reached only No. 53 in the US, Avalon endured as a sleeper hit and became Roxy Music's only million-selling US record, ultimately receiving platinum certification.
