5.0 out of 5 stars 5 Stars for the DVD, 2 Stars for the Whole Package, February 17, 2010

This review is from: Best of Bryan Ferry (Deluxe Edition) (CD + NTSC/Region 0 DVD) (Audio CD)

Too bad the dvd wasn't a separate package, I bought this cd/dvd for the dvd only....The Best Of cd is a mediocre mix w/ many edited/7' versions....tons of great songs have been left out as with all Best Of compilations....It should have been a 2 cd set...Bryan Ferry has several Greatest Hits cds out, I recommend the 3 cd Platinum Collection for those that don't want to delve into the Roxy/Ferry LPs...

...w/ that said the dvd is incredible 25 tracks spanning his entire solo career...been waiting for years for this one...worth the price alone....grab a glass of wine and chill to some of the best pop songs ever....I also recommend the Bete Noire/Munich dvd..essential.

I lived through Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music's heyday from the seventies onwards. Some of the songs show their age, as do the videos, but the great majority show how inventive, original and bold an artist Ferry was and is. The video for Limbo quite literally still knocks my socks off (Australian expression). The video for Let's Stick Together is a classic. A pity the video does not appear to have been digitally remastered in some instances. However the collection of songs are outstanding. Whoever directed the videos such as Limbo and Don't Stop the Dance, for example, also deserves a gong. The women featuring, despite the 80s clothes, hairstyles and dance moves, are stunning. It certainly got my heart started. A reminder of what remarkable artists Ferry and his colaborators including Brian Eno were and are, when artists lived up to the title and were innovative, imaginative and truly original rather than resorting to off-screen and off-mike outrageous and appalling behaviour to maintain public interest. Ferry reminds us what it truly takes to 'make it' and be a genuine star. Sorry about the epistle but I like to compare what we have now to what we had then - perhaps I'm just getting old....
