Bryan Ferry - 'Boys and Girls' (Remastered CD)
I have a number of Ferry's 'torch solos'. This one is OK, but not IMO as good as his debut solo album.

Yes, I played it on Friday but didn’t listen properly like I am now - definitely a bit good! A lot of her later albums have never quite clicked with me like her earlier ones did, this one definitely has though. (Will have to revisit some of those.)
Sound quality on this new one is awesome too, great production.

She followed "Little Earthquakes" with this. Includes the hit single "Cornflake Girl", and well worth seeking out if you don't already have it.

Saw her at the Norwich Arts Centre in February 1992 - quite by chance, really, but that’s what got me into her - don’t suppose there’s any likelihood she’ll be playing there again! (Unfortunately!)
I’m the same as you, Tim, I loved her earlier stuff but my interest dwindled with the later releases, I agree this one is a return to form (although scanning a few online reviews not everyone agrees - do they ever?!)

No, I think that ship has sailed for sure! Last time I saw her was during a sold out run at the Hammersmith Apollo - an extraordinary performance.
Haha, yeah the new fans won't like it because it's more like the old stuff, the older fans like it because it is and that's before you touch on the politics. There will be a lot of American fans who really won't like that!
Anyway, those that don't like it, go play something else - as for me, I think it's great![]()
