Title: A let down
Product review: I bought this CD thinking Ferry had finally returned to material found on Boys and Girls and Bete Noire. Also, since so many other reviewers gave it 5 stars I figured it must be a winner.It is not. It's kind of hard to classify this CD but it is not the Bryan Ferry style I favor. Ferry does a couple of Dylan covers and one thing is clear, Ferry and Dylan do not mix. Only a couple of tracks are worth noting: Goddess of Love and Nobody Loves Me. Both tunes kind of bring the sense of older Ferry material but its not enough to justify the CD purchase.The recording is lacking as well. Both Bete Noire and Boys and Girls were released over 15 years ago yet they sound much more fresh and modern compared to Frantic. Frantic sounds as if it was recorded in someone's (Dave Stewart?) basement with 16 track analog equipment. I recommend you borrow a copy and rip or tape from that and save your money for something else.
