Bryan Ferry-"Boys And Girls" (1985)

Almost 12 years after the publication of the first Roxy Music album titled the band with the same name, its founder and leader Bryan Ferry dedicates himself exclusively to his solo career, which had already started in parallel with his mother band in 1973 with the publication of his debut album "These Foolish Things", which will be followed by a series of albums such as "Another Time, Another Place" (74), "Let's Stick Together" (76), "In Your Mind" (77), and "The Bride Stripped Bare ”(78), all of them of unequal fortune, although the first two reached the top of the British charts.
Roxy Music emerged in the fervor of glam fashion, but with more than enough personality as a rock band, and supported by the charisma of its members, especially Bryan Ferry, dissident Brian Eno and guitarist Phil Manzanera, converting the band in one of the most important in British music throughout the 70's. The Roxy style, first based on glam fascination, adorning itself with feathers and sequins and later establishing itself on the margins of the balance between the quality of albums and the commerciality of the singles, was then saturated with the retro image and greened in the late 70s with the return of the group, which makes it one of the most attractive bands that pop has ever produced with an amalgam of great works like "For Your Pleasure" (73), "Stranded" (73, "Country Life" (74), "Manifestó" (79) or "Flesh and Blood" (80)
Already in 1985 after publishing the acclaimed “Avalon” (82) with Roxy Music, Ferry recorded the work “Boys and Girls”, an album that definitively consecrated him, reaching first place on the English charts.
Tracks like "Slave To Love", "Don't Stop The Dance" Valentine" or "Windswept", made up a work that exudes luxury, dreamy, sensuality and romanticism, demonstrating the versatility and quality of the singer, who is considered one of the dandys of pop rock for their elegance and sophistication.
