"Grey Lagoons" is a song from Roxy Music's second album For Your Pleasure. Before the album was released, it was referred to as "The Bogus Man (part 2)", because the song didn't have a name at that point. The dynamic, contrapuntal arrangement features fast, hard-rocking 1950s-style piano/sax interludes alternating with slower passages. At the moment, Grey Lagoon is also the name of an italian progressive art-rock band.
