This clip is worth listening to, a strange remembrance by Nick Cave of a visit to BF's house in 2000:

The telling phrase is "There's nothing to write about..." For those of us less than enamored of Frantic, Olympia, and Avonmore, Cave's remembrance rings true and is remarkably insightful...

Thanks for posting DCJ. I Didnt know Bryan Ferry is a hero to Nick Cave and it's quite a tale/picture Cave presents in his new book.

Another view to the one you take is that shortly after 2000 the harmony in Bryan's personal life took a major knock and a resurgence in his career began.

Also, most of the original songs on the albums you refer to were written well before 2000. I Thought is genius alone.

Mes Amis,
Interesting ramblings from Brighton's finest.
Personally I'd love to hear our hero interpret Cave's 'Palaces Of Montezuma' in Grindjrman style — it's a song that has Bryan's name on it and certainly one he could have written.
It has the most brilliant lyrics:
"The spinal cord of JFK wrapped in Marilyn Monroe's negligee - I give to you" — peerless!
Salutations,
Windswept
