[2] In 1992's The Rolling Stone Album Guide, Mark Coleman said that " In Your Mind strives for the windswept, bracing impact of Roxy Music's classic Siren. The surfeit of Ferry's compositions is gratifying, though even the hookiest (' Tokyo Joe,' 'Party Doll') merely restate Roxy's familiar romantic and musical themes." [4] In 1983, Dexy’s Midnight Runners’ frontman Kevin Rowland managed to get his band booted off their prestigious support gig on David Bowie’s Serious Moonlight tour. Dexy’s were riding high as a ragamuffin band of “Celtic soul rebels” who had scored big with their single “Come on Eileen.” Despite the plum role on Bowie’s show-bill, Rowland was no fan of the Thin White Duke. Unfortunately, he made his antipathy public during one gig at the Hippodrome d’Auteuil, Paris, when he told the audience David Bowie was “full of shit,” before adding:

Okamoto, Satoshi (2006). Album Chart Book: Complete Edition 1970–2005. Oricon. ISBN 978-4-87131-077-2.

With Roxy Music having given its final bow with the masterpiece Avalon in 1982, here is Bryan's long-awaited sequel, produced masterfully again by Rhett Davies, mixed by Bob Clearmountain. This album is less well known than Avalon but is every ounce its equal. This is a marvel of modern recording and mixing technology, and Ludwig's remaster gives you the most of it. Impossible to resist, this album will take you away to a different world, you'll love it if you have a romantic bone in your body. A true demo disc to show off your system. 9.5 out of 10, 10 being Avalon. His musical ambitions were brought into sharper focus after he hitch-hiked to London to see Otis Redding perform in concert in 1967. It was then that Ferry knew he had to become a singer. Note: The LP's sleeve notes includes "thanks" to a list of musicians. Only their names are mentioned, whilst their instruments and the exact songs on which they play are not. The following list merely tentatively mentions the instruments the same musicians have played on other Ferry records.Another Time Another Place (1974). Another covers album, and a perfect extension of These Foolish Things. Another mix of the modern with the older, complimented by Bryan's ever-improving buttery floaty bird-like croon. 7.5 out of 10. These Foolish Things (1973). A great debut, all covers. Ranges from full-on heavy-duty versions of then modern classics to old-fashioned songs from bygone eras given a modern spin. A 7.0 out of 10 on the Bryan Ferry scale.

OK, some of the 80s crummy production techniques is starting to creep in here, although Bryan is complimented by many of the better musicians of the time including Johnny Marr of the Smiths. Ironically sounds more dated than either Avalon or Boys and Girls. Still, 2/3rds of this record is great, although this is the very first hint we get of Bryan's vocals starting to fade a bit. Well worth seeking out, and by far the hardest to find remaster. 7.0 out of 10. Taxi (1993). A relatively dashed-off sounding albums of covers, will remind the listener of his earliest works, much more simple and less produced than his more recent work. His voice is holding up but fraying at the edges. Still a strong effort. 7.0 out of 10. Kent, David (1993). Australian Chart Book 1970–1992 (illustrateded.). St Ives, N.S.W.: Australian Chart Book. p.429. ISBN 0-646-11917-6. As Time Goes By (1999). An all-covers album composed of standards from before the 40s. Bryan's voice is now showing very clear signs of age and ruination. Still, around half of this album is essential, another worthy entry in his cannon. 6.5 out of 10. Kent, David (1993). Australian Chart Book 1970–1992 (illustrateded.). St Ives, N.S.W.: Australian Chart Book. p.111. ISBN 0-646-11917-6.

The Bride Stripped Bare (1978). A mixture of originals and covers, a little "spotty" in places but another solid album, a bit under-rated in some quarters. 7.0 out of 10.Coleman, Mark (1992).
