	Andy Mackay Bio
		Andy Mackay was born in Lostwithiel, Cornwall, England on July 23, 1946.
		Andy wrote the music for the first two Roxy Music B-sides "The Numberer" and "The Pride and the Pain," both of interest to the Mackay fan, but the first real contribution to a Roxy Music album was his outstanding "A Song for Europe" - to this day a wonderful song.
		Mackay and Schuman collaborated on eighteen songs for the first series, twelve of which were recorded for an album of the same title.

	Roxy Music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Andy met Brian Eno during university days, as both were interested in avant-garde and electronic music.
		The other key members of the band – the classically trained Mackay, the experienced progressive rock guitarist Manzanera and the hard-pounding drummer nicknamed "The Great Paul Thompson" – are reported to have shared some of Eno's concerns about Ferry's dominance of the band, but they elected to remain in the group.
		The changed line-up was reflected in a distinct change in Roxy's music, with the jagged and unpredictable elements of the groups sound giving way to smooth, brooding musical arrangements, culminating in the sombre perfectionism and beautifully sculpted soundscapes of their eighth and final album Avalon in 1982.

		Andy Mackay (saxophone, oboe) is the forgotten member of Roxy Music.
		However, Mackay flew to Rome, Italy, to teach English, and the two were separated for a short while.
		Mackay explained to Ferry that he could assist in shaping his group's sound with oboe and saxophone; Ferry agreed, and the pieces that would form Roxy Music were beginning to be filled.

	These Vintage Years! - Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music - Andy MacKay
		Andy Mackay-saxophonist, oboe player, widely-respected film and television composer, and founder member of Roxy Music-was born in Lostwithiel, Cornwall but grew up in Pimlico in central London.
		Mackay was intrigued by Ferry's eclectic record collection, which extended from the Inkspots to King Crimson, and with Newcastle friends Graham Simpson on bass and occasionally John Porter on guitar, they began rehearsing and developing a small batch of songs which Bryan was writing.
		In 1995 Andy married Lucinda and they live with their baby son and older children in the Quantock Hills, in Somerset by the woods and streams familiar to one of his heroes, Coleridge.

	TrouserPress.com :: Explorers
		On their own as the Explorers, post-Roxy Musicians Phil Manzanera and Andy Mackay — joined by singer James Wraith and a collection of familiar session cohorts — make polite, sophisticated pop/dance music with no edge.
		Manzanera and Mackay occasionally chip in with nifty instrumental bits, but the songs and production are so lacking in personality that it's hardly worth the wait.
		The Players are a no-tech instrumental band led by Andy Mackay; Christmas (executive-produced and "co-presented" by Manzanera, who doesn't play on it) is a delightful folky collection of 33 old-fashioned traditional songs of the season, played with mucho gentle gusto on banjo, fiddle, oboe, clarinet, accordion and acoustic guitar.

		On this album, Andy Mackay and his friends (known as the Players) present an album of traditional Christmas carols.
		Mackay does not deviate from the traditional arrangements with these songs, and he also has picked some classic songs that are not heard that often on Christmas albums ("While Shepherds Watched," "Past Three O'Clock," and "Once in David's City," to name three).
		Fans of Mackay might be a bit surprised with this one but, again, it is a rewarding album.

	Tentative Review by The Christopher Currie: Manzanera & Mackay - Up In Smoke
		For Phil Manzanera and Andy Mackay, however, the future after Roxy Music was decidedly secure in 1983.
		Mackay is the leading player of the later sections of the track, which is good because the track seems to show a few disconcerting tendencies towards banality towards the end (though not enough to seriously impact its rating).
		Mackay once again has a notable background role; if the intention of this track was to recreate "Avalon" (the song), they came close to succeeding.

		For his second solo album, Andy Mackay enlisted the assistance of two of his Roxy Music friends (Phil Manzanera and Paul Thompson), and following a visit to China in 1978 he recorded this "tribute" to China.
		Incorporating traditional Chinese sounds with his progressive rock background, Mackay was able to forge new sounds that made for fascinating listening.
		When Mackay reissued the album in 1992 on his own Riff label, he added four outtakes that.

		Formed in the early 70s in London by singer Bryan Ferry, guitarist Phil Manzanera, saxophonist Andy Mackay, drummer Paul Thompson, and keyboardist Brian Eno, Roxy Music were widely considered as one of the most underrated forces in popular music.
		The first song from Roxy is the brilliant rocker “Virginia Plain” from their 1972 debut album, which featured rhythmic drum tracks from Paul Thompson along with saxophone squeals from Andy Mackay and driving guitar riffs from Phil Manzanera.
		The first track from that record is the lovely “Dance Away” that features luscious guitars from Manzanera along with smooth saxophone tracks from Andy Mackay and lovely vocals from Bryan Ferry who is at seemed more confident as a vocalist backed by a slightly disco-rhythm from Paul Thompson and former Ace keyboardist Paul Carrack.

	The Official Roxy Music Tour 2001 Andy Mackay Biography
		Returning to England with determination undiluted, Andy was teaching music at Holland Park Comprehensive when he became a co-founder of Roxy Music with Bryan Ferry, to whom he had been introduced by a university friend.
		Andy was the first to have his quiff bleached and the tips dyed blue by fashionable hairdresser Keith at Smile, stopping the Knightsbridge traffic as he left the salon.
		In 1998 Andy was involved in a fascinating deja vu re-creating early Roxy tracks with contemporary musicians Thom Yorke of Radiohead, Jarvis Cocker of Pulp and Bernard Butler for the soundtrack to the trashy, chic, Glam rock film Velvet Goldmine.

		Influenced by '40s balladeers as well as '70s electronics, the U.K. band was an art school oddity that was not ashamed it was influenced by George Gershwin as it was the Velvet Underground.
		The band disbanded after releasing its greatest album, 1982's "Avalon." But last February fans were surprised to learn singer Bryan Ferry, guitarist Phil Manzanera, and sax and oboe player Andy Mackay were reuniting (the tour arrives at the Allstate Arena Monday).
		Mackay spoke last week from England about his reasons for re-charging Roxy Music's engines.

		Although he helped compose a number of the group's songs - including "Love Is the Drug," one of their biggest hits - Mackay's contributions to Roxy Music are usually neglected, overshadowed by the dominating presence of vocalist Bryan Ferry and guitarist Phil Manzanera.
		He managed to find time to record a solo album of instrumentals, In Search of Eddie Riff, in 1974; he also married his girlfriend, Jane, that year.
		There were two Rock Follies LPs, the first debuting on the U.K. charts at number one.

		Sprung from a long line of postmen, he received a 1960's education, experimenting with a tape recorder as his primary instrument, the young artist moved to London during 1969, before bumping into a former acquaintance named Andy Mackay, somewhere along the Northern Line.
		Joining Roxy Music, the new band with whom Mackay was currently engaged in playing saxophone, Eno burst upon public awareness as the central pillar of the decadent, inventive, glam rock period of British pop.
		Well, I often think about this, because this particular meeting with Andy was really one of those little moments where your life can take two completely different directions.
