Album Notes & Community Reviews
Roxy Music guitarist Phil Manzanera鈥檚 solo debut, 'Diamond Head', is a highly eclectic art rock effort recorded concurrently with Quiet Sun's 'Mainstream'. Featuring an impressive roster of guest vocalists including Brian Eno, Robert Wyatt, and John Wetton, the album bridges the gap between polished glam rock and ambitious, quirky progressive experiments.
