Bryan Ferry, 'Live at the Royal Albert Hall, 1974'
February 08, 2020
This week on Teenage Kicks we dig into a new release from Bryan Ferry: Live at the Royal Albert Hall, 1974.
Ferry was one of the biggest stars in the U.K. — with his band Roxy Music's "futurist retro" exploding on the scene, mixing powerful music with elements of glitter, camp, humor, led by Ferry, juxtaposing a tuxedoed sophistication to the bell-bottomed, long-haired era. Along with David Bowie, Ferry had managed to attract an audience from intellectuals to pop fans, filling his solo albums with re-interpretations of classics by Dylan, the Stones, and even standards from the '30s, delivered with his unique vocal style that makes this live release a fascinating and welcome addition.
It's Bryan Ferry, from 1974, this week on Teenage Kicks.
