Area 51: Bryan Ferry Enters Desolation Row

Bryan Bryan Ferry's "Dylanesque" (Virgin) sold 7,000 copies in its first week to open at No. 117.
Hard as it may be to believe, it is his best chart position since 1994's "Mamouna," which reached No. 94. Ferry, who records at a snail's pace, has issued only three albums in the last 13 years; "As Time Goes By" hit 195, and 2002's "Frantic" reached No. 189.
The most important thing he wants to fans to know, though, is that he is not a Nazi supporter.

TV appearances include a rendition of "All Along the Watchtower" on the BBC.
