Celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2025, this special edition is the first full 12" vinyl release for this iconic Roxy Music track that originally reached #2 on the UK Singles Chart in 1975 and is one of their Top 3 most-streamed tracks. Featuring the original version and two of the most sought-after remixes, Greg Wilson's Extended Edit and Todd Terje's Disco Dub, as well as the original 7" B-side, "Sultanesque." Driven by a seductive, iconic bassline and Bryan Ferry's confident croon, "Love Is?the?Drug" helped redefine the sound of rock-pop in the mid-70s and is heralded by critics as provocative, stylish, and proto-new wave gold. The track is one of the `70s most identifiable tracks - a global chart hit that was an influence on bands such as Gang of Four, PiL, Simple Minds and the Human League, as well as Nile Rodgers of Chic, who acknowledged that its bass riff was a major influence on Chic's "Good Times."
