A time announced a new album of Roxy Music, Olympia Bryan Ferry is in stores in recent days, his first album in eight years not to be composed entirely of covers. From the first notes evoking Avalon up the aesthetics of the pouch, everything here seems to recall the work together Roxy more than Ferry solo, which may be the least mixed reactions to the many fans who would have preferred a reformation in good and due form instead of this album yet quite successful, despite a handful of lower titers (but how hard does not nowadays?), as always with particular care given to the production, Olympia delivering all its subtleties in CD format rather than the compressed files recovered will fast on his computer. It was in a shop in the old way "that Bryan Ferry had just presented his new baby time of an interview followed by a book signing, to the delight of fans who made the trip. We will not learn anything really new at the session of questions and answers even if Ferry is always expressed in an interesting and amusing about his career and his work. Note still some embarrassment when he was asked if Roxy Music would occur in France in the wake of concert at Rock en Seine this summer ; obviously planned after the tour to England and Australia in early 2011 the future training is uncertain. It will therefore probably be "just" solo concert ... and this very soon. We note also pretty funny evocation of participation somewhat surreal English Dandy franchouillard to a television series in the early 80 (with Pierre Mondy!). Less anecdotally, that sentence Ferry about the disappearance of record stores, changing the world of music, and the certainty of having been there at the right time during a different era.
scent of nostalgia inseparable from his work, finding and printing the busy streets surrounding this great man must sometimes feel very lonely listening to current bands. Who will succeed Bryan Ferry in 2010? Person, and it's a shame.
