Johnnie Walker introduces a portrait of a top music star, all drawn from the BBC archives.

A history of the seminal art rockers told entirely through BBC archive from 1972 onwards with interviews, sessions and live music.

Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music are among the UK's most original & inspiring groups, their innovative fusion of art and music making a huge impact in the UK since that first astonishing Top Of The Pops performance of Virginia Plain a full 40 years ago now.

In this programme we trace the history of Roxy Music, & of Bryan Ferry as a solo artist, using only BBC archive & taking in interviews, sessions & live music from the last four decades.

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
