It's all here. All Bryan Ferry's pet obsessions, word play and music that inspires. The playing is terrific and, although Eno would be missed, its clear that Ferry's songwriting was headed in more melodic directions that would require a more capable keyboard player like Ed Jobson."The Bogus Man" is one of the strangest, trance inducing songs recorded. Although it doesn't sound anything like it, it best recalls "I put a spell on you" by Screaming Jay Hawkins. Don't ask me why.The slower pieces create an overall mood in contrast to the harder rock songs(like "Do the Strand"). If you don't like the mood, you probably won't like the song, but, given a chance, it'll transport you mentally to a wide variety of memories and sensations. A must have early Roxy album.
