"Another Time, Another Place" was Bryan Ferry's second studio album as a solo artist, released in 1974. It reached number 4 on the UK charts and was recorded in London at Island, Ramport, and AIR studios.
Similar to Ferry's debut album "These Foolish Things," "Another Time, Another Place" is primarily a cover album, with the exception of the title track, which Ferry wrote. The album explores a variety of musical styles, shifting from soul influences with songs by Sam Cooke and Ike & Tina Turner, to country music with tracks from Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, and Joe South.
While "These Foolish Things" focused on early-'60s girl-group repertoire, "Another Time, Another Place" expands Ferry's repertoire into different genres, showcasing his versatility as an artist. Despite being predominantly covers, Ferry's distinct vocal style and sophisticated arrangements bring a unique interpretation to each song.
The album's success in the UK charts solidified Ferry's reputation as a solo artist following his tenure with Roxy Music. "Another Time, Another Place" remains a notable entry in Ferry's discography, demonstrating his ability to reinterpret classic songs while exploring new musical territories.
