Bryan Ferry at Lisebergshallen....


Göteborg, Lisebergshallen, October, 28 (photo: GP)

Think about a concept that worked in 1974....and still functions forty years later ! The elegant dandy with the seducing voice, still sings with the same charisma and feeling. Magical-rhythmical candy for our senses, and yesterday nothing of that was changed. One and a half hours of music was, by the way, a bit short for the money.

Paul Beard - keyboards
Guy Pratt - bass
Jorja Chalmers - sax
Cherisse Osei - drums
Jacob Quistgaard - guitarr
Steve Jones - guitar
Bobbie Gordon - backing vocals
Jodie Scantlebury - backing vocals
Fonzi Thornton - backing vocals

Best in show: 
"Oh Yeah" (such a great song), "Kiss and Tell", "Take a chance with me", "More than this", "Slave to love", "Virginia Plain", "Jealous Guy", "Avalon"....and all the rest !!
