March 14, 1981 –
Roxy Music had their only U.K. No. 1 single with their version of John Lennon’s Jealous Guy, on this date.
Roxy Music recorded this as a tribute to Lennon, who was murdered on December 8, 1980. Bryan Ferry performs the whistling solo on the Roxy Music version. The Roxy frontman’s whistling prowess harks back to his paper round days as a youngster when he used to do plenty of whistling.
