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.
