from a Ferry to a cruise ship

Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music weren't exactly household names in the US. But they were massive in the rest of the world. These days, you can hear their influence in acts like The Killers and Scissor Sisters.



One of my many, favorite Bryan Ferry songs is "Slave To Love".



If you haven't heard more than one or two of Bryan Ferry's hits, may I direct your attention to a new greatest hits simply titled, "The Best Of Bryan Ferry". It features two, new recordings. The first is Bryan's cover of "I Don't Want To Go On Without You", which was originally recorded by The Drifters and appeared as the b-side to their legendary single, "Under The Boardwalk", in 1964.

At one point it was going to feature on Bryan's next album. However, it was decided it was best for it to be included on this current collection.

Speaking of The Dirfters, watch this segue! The Drifters will be one of many of the acts singing live on the Malt Shop Memories Cruise which departs May 13, 2010 for four days and sails from Tampa to Cozumel. Request "I Don't Want To Go On Without You" while you're on board!
