Imelda May has found a new groove, exploring blues, soul, gospel, folk, rock, acoustic, cinematic drama and explosive balladry. She is setting a new course with a collection of the boldest, most personal and intimately autobiographical songs she has ever written. This is the album she’s always wanted to make.
“I’ve called it Life Love Flesh Blood because that encompasses everything,” says Imelda. “It’s all in there: birth, sex, love, divorce and death. It’s the story of my life.”

"Flesh + Blood" is the seventh studio album by Roxy Music and was released in June 1980. The album reached #1 in the UK for one week in June and then returned to the summit in August for another three weeks; in total spending 60 weeks on the UK album chart. The album reached #35 in the US and #10 in Australia.
"Flesh + Blood" was made after drummer Paul Thompson had left the band, essentially making Roxy Music a three-piece consisting of Bryan Ferry, Andy Mackay and Phil Manzanera.
