I wanted a hit!' Bryan Ferry on recording Slave to Love in Bette Midler's house
Briefly

"I wanted something simple and memorable, a song for everyone. A hit! The first line 'Tell her I'll be waiting / In the usual place...' set the scene."
"The guitar solo in the middle is actually three interweaving guitarists: Gilmour, Keith Scott and Hubbard. This collaboration added a unique depth to the track."
"When I performed the song for the first time, at Live Aid, the drummer broke his snare-drum skin, and despite the technical issues, the song took off quickly."
"It was beautifully filmed, with a certain chicness—all these beautiful girls and me in the background, which was how I liked to be."
