To kick off my birthday week, John Cohn took me out for dinner and an evening at the Greek Theater here in Griffith Park. Although I grew up listening to Roxy Music and then Bryan Ferry, I never quite realized his style range. He rocked the Greek for over two hours with a ten piece band - all the while jumping between musical instruments. It's nice to know you never have to give up your early crushes - they just keep getting better and better!

Love Bryan Ferry. You might also like Jeremy Brett - the best Sherlock Holmes ever.
Slave to love....
My favorite.
Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music. Very cool! I'm on the same page as you, Kaari!
The NPR interviewer asked him if he recorded at night and asked him how he felt about being “A sexy vampire crooner”, he said it’s not so bad. Here we are 10 years later and it’s Ferry at 70 and 50 years on from the first Roxy album and they’re touring again. The most suave and well preserved rocker ever. Perhaps because he is not all rocker and really a lounge lizard. No SPF needed, Only Cristal kept backstage. Quite simply, the icon’s icon.
