Recorded 1996 The songs he wanted to sing doing them his way.
Sound quality is really nice with a varied choice of songs.
Ironic lyrics on Leaving On A Jet Plane -
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you’ll wait for me
Hold me like you’ll never let me go
‘Cause I’m leavin’ on a jet plane
Don’t know when I’ll be back again…
Amazing to think that this is his first solo album…
And I urge anyone and everyone to give it a listen - its the best release I have heard this year. Its amazing and I’ve had goosebump moments listening to it!!!
Sun’s fair beltin’ doon over North Yorks. this morning, and as a result, I’m feeling in something of a bonkers mood, so it could only ever be The Nutty Boys, couldn’t it?
Bryan Ferry’s ninth solo studio album Mamouna is being reissued as CD and vinyl deluxe sets today.
The 1994 album was Ferry’s first studio album of original material for seven years and for a time it had the working title Horoscope. Eventually the recordings developed into the finished Mamouna album, but for the first time, these previously unreleased alternate recordings are released as Horoscope on both 3CD deluxe and 2LP vinyl editions of the Mamouna reissue.
I’m playing a few of Percy’s less popular albums this week. Musically I am quite enjoying this one, but what about that cover? It’s enough to put anyone off.
That’s good to hear, its usually a man thing to bottle everything up and don’t say anything to others, cos you’re seen as weak etc, but at times its good to get things out in the open, there’s always someone out there ready to help.
I really like looking in on here, and seeing what others are listening too, long may it continue.
