Bryan Ferry - Retrospective

Retrospective: Selected Recordings 1973-2023 is a compilation album by British singer songwriter Bryan Ferry, released in October 2024 via BMG.

Retrospective: Selected Recordings 1973-2023 provides the first ever comprehensive career retrospective to fully explore the depth and breadth of Bryan Ferry as a solo artist. It brings together for the first time his classic output with Island Records, Polydor, Virgin / E.G., and BMG and brings the story right up to date, spanning a period of over 50 years.

This compilation showcases his skill both as a writer of original classics and reflects his status as one of the greatest interpreters of other writers’ material. It also draws out the sonic versatility of Bryan Ferry as a solo artist – from rock ‘n’ roll to sophisticated adult pop; from R&B and dance-based grooves to piano ballads; from electronica to ambient; from jazz to country, folk, blues and avant-garde new wave. At the centre of it all is the unique sound and style of Bryan Ferry, an artist who has remained relevant, interesting and unmistakably himself. Retrospective: Selected Recordings 1973-2023 has been Half-Speed Mastered at Abbey Road Studios.

This double album 2LP record set is on 180 gram black vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve with printed inner sleeves and half speed mastered audio, pressed in Germany via BMG.
