"Roxette" was issued as a single in the UK in November 1974. It failed to reach the UK Singles Chart. It was written by Wilko Johnson and produced by Vic Maile. The B-side of the record is a cover of "(Get Your Kicks On) Route 66". Later, in September 1976, a live recording of the song was issued by the band as a single, with a live recording of "Keep It Out of Sight" on the B-side. The live recording of the track also appeared on Dr. Feelgood's 1976 live album, Stupidity. "Roxette" was also later included on Dr. Feelgood's 1997's compilation album, Twenty Five Years of Dr. Feelgood. Johnson re-recorded the song with Norman Watt-Roy for his 2013 album, Faith and Grace, performing it live on a few occasions on Watt-Roy's tour in October 2013. The Swedish duo Roxette took their name from this song. References
