Bryan Ferry’s eighth solo studio album ‘Taxi’ is being re-issued for the very first time since its initial release in March 1993. Reviewing for Entertainment Weekly, critic David Browne wrote of the album: "Few of the remakes have the decadent, jaunty verve of his covers albums of the '70s.But that's okay, since Ferry appears to be aiming for something else: beautifully eerie mood music for the lovesick vampire in us all. The unlikely pairing of Ferry and bluesy guitarist Robin Trower works particularly well, the sound is full and atmospheric, and Ferry is in fine voice throughout. When Ferry was asked about the album, he said "Since I started work on the Taxi album, everything has gone great for me. Whenthe album was originally released, in the early nineties, I played it a couple of times, and filed it, without it making a great impression on me.

The ‘Taxi’ album features his refined, inspired interpretations of Screamin’ Jay Hawkins’ ‘I Put A Spell On You’, Goffin and King’s ‘Will You Love Me Tomorrow’ and Lou Reed’s ‘All Tomorrow’s Parties’. The first 3 cuts are killer and there's only one let up, for me, on the entire CD and that's the title song-which is still excellent but in comparison to the other tracks, it's the my least favorite. It was first released in Japan on 10 March, before being released in the UK on 22 March and then in the US in April. Rob Sheffield wrote in his three-star review of the album that " Taxi is a consistently inspired set that ranges from 'Amazing Grace' to 'All Tomorrow's Parties.

On 'Taxi', Ferry features songs largely from the pre-Beatles era of pop - a great, deeplly melancholic take on Elvis Presley's 'Girl of My Best Friend', a lovelorn 'Will You Love Me Tomorrow', and a spooky take on Screamin' Jay Hawkins' 'I Put A Spell On You'. Finishing something I liked and getting back into singing again, getting away from my own writing temporarily was a good thing. Taxi is the eighth solo studio album by English singer Bryan Ferry, released in March 1993 by Virgin Records, over five years after the late 1987 release of his previous album Bête Noire.
