Description
Bryan Ferry’s ninth solo studio album ‘Mamouna’ is
being reissued for the first time since 1994 and is being
released on two deluxe formats. It was Bryan Ferry’s first
studio album in seven years to feature original
recordings, having worked on the album for six years
under the working title of ‘Horoscope’. The previously
unreleased alternate recordings to the final ‘Mamouna’
versions are collected for the first time on these deluxe
reissues as the ‘Horoscope’ album.
The 2LP audiophile heavyweight vinyl was half-speed
cut at Abbey Road Studios, London, by master engineer
Miles Showell. The 3CD version also includes the
‘Horoscope’ album, with an additional disc of previously
unreleased demos or “Sketches” from both the
‘Mamouna’ and ‘Horoscope’ albums. The artwork
direction for the updated reissue was overseen by Bryan
Ferry himself.
The album features a stellar cast of supporting musicians
including Nile Rodgers, Guy Pratt and Steve Ferrone, as
well as contributions from his Roxy Music bandmates
Phil Manzanera, Andy Mackay and Brian Eno. The
album peaked at Number 11 on the UK Official Album
Chart and includes the singles ‘Don’t Want To Know’,
‘Your Painted Smile’ and title track ‘Mamouna’.
