Rolling Stone (p.192) - 4 stars out of 5 - "[THE] PLATINUM COLLECTION includes Roxy tunes that demonstrate this deeply skilled band's delicious development from thrashing rock to crystal-clear pop."

Product note

Liner Note Author: Michael Bracewell.
THE PLATINUM COLLECTION, a three-disc retrospective box set that puts Roxy Music's singles alongside frontman Bryan Ferry's solo work, illustrates how Ferry's sensibility, in many ways, defined Roxy Music from the outset, and determined its subsequent direction. The compilation proves Ferry a premiere art-rock conceptualist--the success of his style-conscious presentations, his penchant for soulful grooves, and his sophisticated, often orchestral approach to composition have been borne out by his long career.
Sequenced chronologically, THE PLATINUM COLLECTION begins with "Virginia Plain" from Roxy Music's 1972 debut and ends with Ferry's 2002 single "A Fool for Love." Even on the early glam material, Ferry's interest in American soul and R&B is apparent (see the quirky, gospel-ized version of Dylan's "Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall," his first solo single). Roxy Music's later work (FLESH & BLOOD, AVALON) continues the trend, with an increasing allegiance to romantic pop, lush productions, and smooth crooning. Ferry's solo career, which paralleled Roxy Music's almost from the beginning, reflects these tendencies, whether in choice of covers ("Smoke Gets in Your Eyes") or his memorable originals ("Slave to Love"). All told, the 45 tracks assembled here are a definitive overview of Ferry's work and a testament to his vision and achievement.

Album Description

This retrospective takes in the greatest hits of the legendary pop maker over the course of 45 tracks and three discs, covering both his career in Roxy Music as well as his succesful solo career. It includes tracks from the early part of his music career (such as 1972's 'Virginia Plan' from 'Roxy Music') right up to his 2003 work ('Both Ends Burning'). The album also contains well known hits such as 'Is Your Love Strong Enough' and the 1982 single 'More Than This'.
