Limited Edition Japanese pressing of this album comes housed in a miniature LP sleeve. 2007.
Even almost 20 years on this is still one of the greatest recordings ever. Musically it has stood the test of time and represents some of the strongest songs Bryan ever wrote and recorded. Stylistically "Boys and Girls" picks right up where Roxy Music's "Avalon" left off with lush cinematic paeans to the pursuit of love. Rhett Davies production is sumptuous, warm and oh-so-well suited to Bryan's voice. Nothing here rocks too hard and yet it's still nice mid-tempo jazz inflected numbers with enough beat to pulsate to but yet overall calm subdued and restrained. A good friend of mine jokingly called this the granddaddy of Chill Out records and they're not far from it. Perfect for coming down from a night of partying or as I call it the "ultimate make out record". And try not to sing along...I dare you! There is literally not a dud track in the lot and the music washes over you like waves in the ocean, starting with "Sensation" and carrying on through. It's hard to pick personal favorites as they're all so strong, but "Don't Stop the Dance" is a killer track, especially when Bryan coos about "footsteps in the dark, come together". In my humble opinion Bryan Ferry hands down has one of the sexiest voices ever and this is probably his sexiest recording. "Boys and Girls" is the equivalent of slipping into something more comfortable, taking the phone off the hook, pouring a nice glass of wine, kicking back and doing something you really enjoy.
