Bryan Ferry has apologized for his remarks about the Nazi Party in a German newspaper interview.
Ferry referred to the German regime has "just amazing", in reference to their PR skills and their ability to get their little club known and sway people to their cause."The Nazis knew how to put themselves in the limelight and present themselves," he was quoted as saying.
"Leni Riefenstahl's movies and Albert Speer's buildings and the mass parades and the flags - just amazing. Really beautiful."
Ferry apologized in a statement, saying "I apologise unreservedly for any offence caused by my comments on Nazi iconography, which were made solely from an art history perspective.
"I, like every right-minded individual, find the Nazi regime, and all it stood for, evil and abhorrent."
Ferry has had a number of solo hits as well as the front man for 70s tech-rock group Roxy Music.
His most recent album is 'Dylanesque - The Songs of Bob Dylan'.
