Album Notes & Community Reviews
Bryan Ferry's most commercially successful solo record is a masterwork of incredibly sleek, nocturnal sophisti-pop. Featuring meticulous, high-budget production and contributions from numerous legendary session musicians, the album surrounds his suave, romantic croon with deep, atmospheric synthesizer grooves and funk-inflected guitars. 'Boys and Girls' remains a lush, highly sensual triumph of sophisticated 80s pop rock.
