Parts of the interview are in French but you can get the gist of what is being said. He performs "Thom Thumb's Blues" and "Make You Feel My Love" where he duets with Carla Bruni. He's not with the full band, looks like just Ollie, Leo & Colin. It's a good little interview and he is asked about the Roxy Music album!! He is the first guest on.

As you say beautiful soul version, guy has a great voice and a lovely overall production. Not as desperate and edgy as Bryan's (does Mr Blackfoot really love the girl, I'm not convinced :-)) which is a wonderful interpretation. Really enjoying this series you've started, looking forward to the next song!

I love this original. He's got a sub-Otis bent to his voice which is what I suspect might have hooked Ferry into it. Even though it sounds very 'of a time' , that type of vocal can still capture the modern imagination today. For proof just witness Cee-Lo of Gnarls Barclay. Love to hear Bryan cover Crazy! Han, this is an inspired series. Up to now I've almost enjoyed the originals as much as the covers. Here's a challenge. Make me love an original Bob Dylan tune (and not just the lyric), that's a tough one.
