Info Stars: Bryan Ferry

Summary: Includes the tracks; 'The Way You Look Tonight', 'Love Me Or Leave Me', 'Smoke Gets In Your Eyes', 'Chance Meeting', 'Casanova', 'Avalon', 'Jealous Guy', 'Let's Stick Together', 'Love Is The Drug' and others.

New Romantic poet Bryan Ferry made a highly significant contribution to pop music with his band Roxy Music, and his solo career has fared just as well. The British former art student helped invent modern pop with his penchant for smooth sophistication and mature introspection. LIVE IN PARIS, filmed at Paris's Le Grand Rex in March 2000, features an older Ferry exploring the roots of pop music with renditions of classic standards. A typically well-dressed Ferry sings songs including "The Way You Look Tonight," "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes," and "Casanova."

Editor's Review

amazon.co.uk Live at Le Grand Rexfeatures a wildly enjoyable and often unexpected concert performance by ex-Roxy Music front man and prolific solo artist Bryan Ferry. The setting is Paris in the spring of 2000, starring Ferry and about a dozen musicians mixing the avant-garde, Tin Pan Alley and a delirious pop mélange for the kind of passionate European audience that gave Roxy Music, during the early 1970s, its first commercial and critical boost outside the UK. Backed by brass, piano, percussion, the occasional guitar and a string section comprised of beautiful Muses (you must see it to understand...), Ferry glides through a handful of Rodgers &Hart, Cole Porter and Kern &Fields standards, then hits the ground running on a slate of his own classic compositions from the last three decades: "Chance Meeting", "The Only Face" and "Avalon" among others. Not the strongest of singers, Ferry is often drowned out by the sheer stamina of his backup band. But it's impossible, still, not to be transported by the stylish earnestness and whiff of decadence in his soaring vocals. Highlights include Roxy's rather wonderful cover of John Lennon's "Jealous Guy" and the essential disco anthem "Love Is the Drug".

On the DVD: modest DVD supplements include a discography and a cute feature that identifies the musicians by face. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com
