SATURDAY NIGHT ROXY MUSIC, PINK FLOYD.

Roxy Music with Take a Chance with me. From the 1980 album Avalon.





FYI, Avalon is/was a mythical island from Arthurian legends. Geoffrey of Monmouth refers to it as Insula Avallonis in his 1136 work Historia Regum Britanniae. Avalon is where Excalibur, Arthur's sword, would have been forged. And it's also where Arthur would have been carried after the Battle of Camlann, the final battle where he was victorious over Mordred. If you have seen the movie Excalibur, the final scene is of Arthur's body lying on the aft deck of a vessel on its way to Avalon.



Pink Floyd with Learning to Fly. Album A Momentary Lapse of Reason (1987).





First Pink Floyd album after Roger Waters' departure at the end of 1985.


Nite.
