Bryan Ferry, den elegante popmusikern ville ha någon som utstrålar glamour extra mycket på kommande albumet ”Olympia” som släpps den 27 oktober.
Här ett pressmeddelande om det:
Bryan Ferry: ”I wanted a cover-girl for this record who could convey the glamorous notoriety of the original ’Olympia’ painting, and the obvious choice was Kate Moss.
Kate has long been the ’femme fatale’ of our age, as controversial as she is beautiful, and the most glamorous female icon since Marilyn Monroe.”

ALPHAVILLE
HEARTACHE BY NUMBERS

SHAMELESS

Pressmeddelande om albumet:
The legendary BRYAN FERRY returns with his brand new studio album ‘Olympia’ on Virgin Records on October 27.
The single ‘You Can Dance’, already a club hit across Europe, will be released on August 9, accompanied by a stunning music video shot at Wilton’s Music Hall.
‘Olympia’ follows up Bryan Ferry’s last studio album ‘Dylanesque’ which hit the UK top 5 on its release in 2007.
The album features eight new songs, and Ferry’s moving adaptation of Tim Buckley’s ‘Song To the Siren’, and also an amazing version of Traffic’s ‘No Face, No Name, No Number’.
The new songs include collaborations with Scissor Sisters (‘Heartache By Numbers’) and Groove Armada (‘Shameless’)
It is the first album to reunite Bryan Ferry with Phil Manzanera, Andy Mackay and Brian Eno since Roxy Music’s seminal album “For Your Pleasure” in 1973. It also features contributions from Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour, Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead, Nile Rogers from Chic, ex Stone Roses bassist Mani, and Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
“Olympia” was co-produced by Bryan Ferry and Rhett Davies.
