Do we know who's done the arrangements? I'd bet on a Ferry/Good joint credit. Ferry Good?

How interesting! Nice to see that songs like "My only face", "I thought" and "Reason or rhyme" are included.
Yes, if BF is to be pictured as the heart of this organism, then Good is the liver.

I'm slightly worried that Colin will have done the bulk of this with BF just sprinkling on fairy dust at the end (a bit like Mr Eno has sometimes done).

The day was changed to Friday 12th. ,

From BF's facebook page:-

"We've just been told by the BBC that Bryan's interview on the Today Programme will be aired on Friday, not tomorrow...."

I can't see it selling,personally. So, chart wise and financially, it will be a disaster. However,if Bryan's doing it for artistic reasons,and is not concerned about chart success or the financial returns, then it may be a winner

I assume he intends to tour to promote it. Will he sit on piano for the instrumentals ? And stick a few old favourites in between

I don't expect the new album to sell well, but a commercial disaster I doubt. I imagine it will have cost a fraction of the 'Olympia' budget to produce.

Oh how Bryan must long for a 'commercial disaster' the likes of 'The Bride Stripped Bare', which only made number 13 and only sold 60,000 plus copies, earning a silver disc in the UK. Do you think any future albums of original material will ever sell as many again?

Still, whaterver the sales, I'm hoping for another Grammy nomination.
