The 1920's and 30's are often referred to as the Jazz Age.    That time when jazz music gained national and worldwide popularity.     There's a great TV series called Babylon Berlin (so far 4 seasons, with a 5th and final season yet to be broadcast).    Babylon Berlin takes place in the late 20's early 30's Berlin, Germany which saw the rise of the nationalist Nazi Party.    It is great drama against that backdrop of jazz and changing political and social times.  

Many performers have been chameleons throughout their careers with the prototype being David Bowie.   
With Berlin Babylon we see the emergence of another chameleon.  At the end of the first season and into the second (and I believe third season) Bryan Ferry, of Roxy Music (and solo) fame appears in the series.   He performs Roxy Music songs completely re-imagined as Jazz Age classics.   

And so we come to the them of "cover versions".  It's not often when a musical artist so transforms their own work so that it not only maintains the integrity and hints of the original while become a stand alone work of art on its own.   He is given credit in the series as the Bryan Ferry Orchestra.    And they have recorded a couple of albums in the style of the Jazz Age.  

Here again, I'm going to post 2 tracks.  First is the popular Roxy Music track AVALON released in 1982 and sent back to the 1920's/30's for a complete imaginative rework.    And below that DANCE AWAY from the 1979 album Manifesto.  Enjoy.
