Biography

While his tenure as the frontman for the legendary Roxy Music remained his towering achievement, singer Bryan Ferry also carved out a successful solo career which continued in the lush, sophisticated manner perfected on the group's final records. Born September 26, 1945, in Washington, England, Ferry, the son of a coal miner, began his musical career as a singer with the rock outfit the Banshees… Read more in Amazon's Bryan Ferry Store

5.0 out of 5 stars "Mamouna" Displays Ferry's Talents Perfectly!, July 24, 2001
"Mamouna," released in the mid-90's, remains one of my all-time favorite Bryan Ferry albums. His unique arrangements and poetic song-writing are displayed beautifully on this album. The title cut, a ballad, is Ferry at his smoothest and most elegant. Another favorite cut, "The 39 Steps," is slightly more pop-py, but with a darker edge. For fans of Roxy Music, or Ferry as a solo artist, this is a must-have.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Take A Chance With Me", April 9, 2001
By James T. Heeney (Montclair, NJ United States) - See all my reviews
Or, I should say, take a chance with this CD, even if you are not familiar with Brian Ferry or Roxy Music. The Latin beats, the cool sax, the soaring sythesizers: no one can turn it on like Ferry and the Roxies, and listening to this disc, as with so many of their others, you'll be transported to a dark mysterious night club where the men are always soave and the women are always sexy. I am confounded that the likes of Sting have become so popular while Ferry has had to remain in comparative obscurity. Though he would never admit it, this is the type of album that Sting wishes he could record: as a whole, it is flawless, but if any songs stand out, I would have to say that NYC and the title track are particularly terrific. Mamouna is almost as timelessly perfect as "Avalon." Don't miss it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sonics!, August 2, 2000
Bryan Ferry's finest overall solo album to date. The above post mentioned the Roxy Music reunion and this may be it. Mamouna, along with Bowie's "Outside" and "Wrong Way Up' with John Cale are also the finest pop music that Brian Eno has produced since the '70's (I guess the ONLY pop music since the 70's for that matter.) Ferry with Robin Trower(?) and a no doubt un-credited Eno recorded this on an astonishing 56 tracks and you can hear something on everyone of them. There is layer upon layer of sonic stuff to enjoy so break out those Sennheiser's and enjoy! Oh yeah, it is very funky, sensual, avante-garde, romantic, sentimental, challenging and rewarding too.
