5.0 out of 5 stars This CD will put a spell on you. June 7, 2002
Format:Audio CD
This CD is a marvelous collection of ten covers. There aren't any original songs on here but the way Ferry takes older classics and gives them an updated sound is amazing. Unlike As Time Goes By which has a very 40s sound, Taxi has a very modern sound and most of the songs are eerie and haunting. I consider this rainy night traveling music. The title track is spellbinding. My favorite song though is Rescue Me(No not Madonnas 1990 song). It's a very dark, haunting song with a very futuristic sound and almost technoish beats, kind of like Wildcat Days from Mamouna. This CD is a worthy album of checking out. It's surely doesn't do Bete Noire or Boys and Girls justice but Taxi is an album that might please most of Ferrys fanbase. Enjoy the ten well-crafted songs on Taxi. Don't let this Taxi go by.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of his best June 15, 2002
Format:Audio CD
This is one of the greatest CD's in my collection.
I turn to it again and again. I especially like
Taxi, the title song. It's very sexy. Do yourself
favor and at least check out the sound samples.
You will have to have it.

5.0 out of 5 stars might be my fave BF June 27, 2003
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Great album. So smooth and cool. Rescue me and Answer Me are freakin' awesome. And I never liked Amazing Grace in the least until I heard it on this album. Just enough quirkiness in every song to make each one interesting, too.

3.0 out of 5 stars Worth it.
I only like a couple of songs in this album, the rest is just so so. But it was worth it for me because I had to have HIS version of "will you still love me tomorrow."

If there is another artist who can take a song someone else wrote and make it all his own, please tell me who it is, because I don't know anyone better at it than Bryan Ferry. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Back in the (taxi)driver's Seat!
A return to form, and a return to covers, for the great master. How can Bryan Ferry produce an album of cover songs and make it feel like an album of original compositions? Read more
