Thanks, I've put this on - if you listen to Roxy Music's arc chronologically, the mood evaporates from dense pop art to a rather ethereal, minimal place

I wonder if he still wears his tux...? 😅

No, he’s more elegantly causal

Great tip. Bryan is my choice for lounge singer on the Titanic that we are all slowly sinking on. He’s a master interpreter of his own catalogue and covers. Take Dylan’s All I Really Wanna Do, with his country yodeling; then, Cher’s trippy vocal switches, then the Byrds sonic wall, up to Ferry’s version 40 years later. His is a perfect marriage of wistful yearning and tongue-in-cheek mirth. It still thrills.
