I’ve been with this music since 1973 , and indeed an ex-partner of mine sagely stated that my relationship with Ferry is , bar family, the longest one in my life.
I’m happy to follow his muse, whether it be alternative , disco, blues, jazz or good old fashioned 1930’s standards.
As a Postscript, have gone back recently to Another Time, Another Place recently which the great JO’B has said that he rated less than other records,(as well as Siren, surprisingly). I would have liked this current tour to have included Walk a Mile in my Shoes, Fingerpoppin’, and the title track. Peak Ferry.
Hipsters,
What an excellent intervention from avalon_eyes.
It probably calls for a separate thread.
Windswept lui-meme understands completely the educational value of friend Ferry.
W2 had a musical life pre-Ferry but it was his influence that broadened the horizons and for this he is, was and remains eternally grateful.
Salutations,
W2
