Bryan Ferry has announced his massive album, Retrospective: Selected Recordings 1973-2023, a career-spanning collection capturing 50 years of his music that’s set to release on Oct. 25.

The upcoming project is billed as a celebration of “a master modern interpreter of song via a dizzyingly inventive series of cover versions that range from Bob Dylan to Amy Winehouse, Rodgers and Hart to the Velvet Underground via Tim Buckley, Shakespeare, sea shanties and Sam and Dave,” per a press release. The album will also pay tribute to Ferry’s songwriting legacy and includes his top singles like 1985’s “Slave to Love.”

To mark the announcement, Ferry has also released a cover of the 1965 Dylan classic, “She Belongs to Me.” The reimagined song will be part of a new five-track EP, Retrospective: She Belongs to Me — the first of three digital EP drops in the coming months as part of Retrospective: Selected Recordings 1973-2023‘s arrival. The “Don’t Stop the Dance” singer previously took on Dylan’s 1962 apocalyptic anthem, “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall,” as part of Perry’s own 1973 debut solo album, These Foolish Things (which was released while he was still part of Roxy Music).

Retrospective: Selected Recordings 1973-2023 will also feature new song “Star,” and be divided into a CD box set featuring different stages of Ferry’s career: “The Best of Bryan Ferry,” “Compositions,” “Interpretations,” “Rare and Unreleased,” and “Selected Recordings 1973-2023.” Each disc will explore different aspects and eras of Ferry’s body of work from B sides and outtakes to focusing on his ability to span genres and expand the limits of songwriting.

The Weeknd Apparently Reconsidering Name Change

The Weeknd spent a lot of time last year saying that Hurry Up Tomorrow, his latest album, would be his last under that moniker.

The Toronto singer developed a brand of pop that turned him into one of the biggest artists on the planet, but felt that The Weeknd's persona had run its course. The idea wasn't to stop making music altogether, but to eventually leave The Weeknd behind and move forward under his legal name, Abel Tesfaye, particularly as his ambitions expanded into acting, film and other creative projects.

Tupac Shakur Murder Trial: Everything You Need to Know

Nearly 30 years ago, rap superstar Tupac Shakur was headed to an afterparty in Las Vegas when he was gunned down in a drive-by shooting, his unknown killers speeding away from the scene in a white Cadillac. This week, the man who police accuse of orchestrating the fatal hit will stand trial over his death. If convicted, it will put to rest one of hip-hop’s biggest unsolved murders.

Jury selection for the criminal trial of Duane Keith Davis, aka Keffe D, begins Monday, with Nevada prosecutors planning to present evidence on how the South Side Compton Crips gang leader set in motion the fatal Sept. 7, 1996 shooting that would claim the life of one of rap’s most enduring icons.

Drake Turns Kick Stream Into a 20-v-1 Dating Show, Warns Rap Rivals His ‘Pen Isn’t Dry’

On Saturday, Drake continued his ongoing forays into the world of content creators, hosting a stream on Kick, which is affiliated with Stake, the crypto gambling company Drake is partnered with, which saw the rapper, fresh off the release of three new albums, flirting with a goth streamer, gifting out birkins, and sending not so subtle warnings to the rest of the rap game, noting that his “pen isn’t dry.”

The roughly three-hour broadcast marked the ninth anniversary of Stake, the online crypto casino that has sponsored Drake’s livestreams for years. The company announced the stream with an Instagram post advertising more than $1 million in cash and prize giveaways, including a $50,000 grand prize for one viewer. During the actual stream, things moved quickly beyond gambling, turning into something closer to a chaotic Drake variety show. Drake also used the opening portion of the stream to reflect on his recent releases, patting himself on the back a little for dropping three projects at once. He also has a warning for anyone considering taking more shots in his direction. “These guys are dropping albums, like hello and goodbye, and careful with that reply ’cause the pen isn’t dry,” he said.

And I was like, ‘I don’t know, but I’d love it if Drake sang it in Spanish.”
