Splendid recommendation of the new Ferry release: "Well worth the wait" http://www.herald.ie/entertainment/musi ... 79020.html Quote: "Elsewhere, the ensemble, which features three of the original Roxy Music, sound slick and musically sophisticated, elevating the pedestrian ballad Me Oh My and the lurching Reason Or Rhyme to a level of luxury confection. Primal Scream's Mani pumps up the bass on BF Bass (Ode to Olympia), a successful groove with a memorable chorus. "Love, love, you fit me like a glove . . ." Ferry does his finest weary and wasted croon on Alphaville, a song he wrote over a decade ago. "I'm hungry for your love . . ." Shameless, written with Groove Armada, is a floor-filler filled with shimmering aural textures that cocoon the man's quiet desperation. It's subtitled Rock 'n' roll Desire. "I can't take heartache by numbers," pleads Ferry on the new single, a song written with Scissor Sisters. It makes for easy listening. While it lacks punch, it doesn't detract from the overall package which is a welcome, and stylish, return by a performer who makes 65 sound like the new 30." |
