Hey sweety...talk about a coincidence, eh?

Brian Ferry is supposedly a nostalgic Tory.

Brian Eno - whom I consider a musical genius - sadly has a political alignment that is more Hamas than Labour.

Back in 1975 I purchased Siren based on the cover art alone. Roxy turned out to one of my most favorite groups ever.

BTW, I heard Discount Shoe Warehouse using Brian Ferry's version of "The In Crowd" in a commercial recently. Brian Ferry and DSW are pretty incongruous, IMO.

Thanks for the post - big Brian Ferry fan - was just listening to "Boys and Girls" at work this morning (some sweet cuts with Mark Knopfler and David Sanborn).
Always thought Brian was one of the more cerebral musicians from that era - smooth vocals, too.

I took the one on the right on a honeymoon.

Well, to be precise, I dreamed about doing so.

Loved the live album called (I think) One More From the High Road—fantastic versions of “Can’t Let Go” “My Only Love” and Lennon’s “Jealous Guy”

Ferry’s vocals on that album were awesome.

I remember the walking scene Sharon Stone did in Casino Love is a drug when she first met Dinero characther in that movie

Love Roxy. What’s most amazing to me about the band is how much their music changed in just 11 years and 8 albums. And yet if you listen to them in order you find it’s a very gradual change, each album very logically follows the previous in musical style as they slowly get less psychedelic and more lush.
