1973 single by Roxy Music
"Pyjamarama" is a song by English rock band Roxy Music, released as a single in February 1973. It reached a peak of number 10 on the UK Singles Chart after a twelve week charting stint.[1] The song was written by Bryan Ferry, and the first one he wrote with the guitar as his instrument.[2] and was backed by an instrumental non-LP track called "The Pride and the Pain" written by Andy Mackay.
In 1977, it was re-released as a single, together with "Virginia Plain", to promote their Greatest Hits album, and reached number 11. However the 1977 release was a different mix with less sax treatments on it and the closing guitar refrain edited differently from the original Island 7" version.[3] The original version (along with "The Pride and the Pain") was re-released on the box set The Thrill of It All, while the 1977 version can be found on the Street Life: 20 Great Hits compilation. In 2012, both mixes were included in the ten-disc boxed set The Complete Studio Recordings 1972-1982 on the bonus compilation Singles, B-sides and Alternative Mixes.
A live version appears on Viva! Roxy Music.
Personnel
- Bryan Ferry – vocals, guitar
- Brian Eno – VCS3 synthesizer
- Andrew Mackay – saxophone
- Phil Manzanera – electric guitar
- John Porter – bass guitar
- Paul Thompson – drums
