Post subject: | OLYMPIA`S FIRST CUSTOMER RATING |
From hmv.com: "Ferry Fan Big Time 23 July, 2010 Typical Ferry sound. Undertones of other earlier work, but hey that's why I love it! Worth the wait." Is it a case of clearing the shelf from Bryan? Does he now release a collection of tits and bits that have been lying around? Some of the songs seem to be from the Alphaville project. I remember "Whatever Gets You Through The Night" mentioned in the Mojo magazine`s big Roxy article from Dec. 1995. Btw., at the same time he mentions that there is a tour of Europe to attend to, complete with 76-piece orchestra and 76-piece choir. "Oh", the journalist comments. -Anyone? Robert Plant covered "Song To The Siren" on his 2002 "Dreamland" album. That was nealy 6 minutes of boring wailing. |

I remember hearing WGYTTN on the Alphaville boot and being disappointed - it sounded uninspiring compared to the rollicking Lennon original. I hope Bryan makes it an up-tempo stomper. |

If only our Bryan could manage to put together albums as good as Robert Plant has done latterly. I (as a massive Roxy, and big Bryan Ferry, fan) am beginning to look forward more to Plant's September release as compared to Bryan's October one. But I live in hope that Olympia will prove me wrong............. |

The bootlegged version Ferry did showed how he can cover a song and make it sound like his own. The version on the new album is not exaclty the same as the bootlegged version J.O'B. |
