Aja (/ˈeɪʒə/, pronounced Asia) is the sixth studio album by the jazz rock band Steely Dan. Originally released in 1977 on ABC Records, the album peaked at number three on the US charts and number five in the UK. It was the band's first platinum album and ultimately became their best-selling studio release, eventually selling over 5 million copies.[2] It spawned a number of hit singles, including "Peg", "Deacon Blues", and "Josie". In July 1978, the album won the Grammy Award for Best Engineered Non-Classical Recording. The credits for Aja list nearly 40 musicians, as band leaders Donald Fagen and Walter Becker pushed Steely Dan further into experimenting with different combinations of session players.

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young是四位民谣摇滚乐界好手的姓氏，他们原本是David Crosby(来自洛杉矶团体The Byrds)、Stephen Stills(来自另一洛杉矶团体Buffalo Springfield)、Graham Nash(来自英籍团体Hollies)所组成的超级三重唱简称CSN，在出版首张同名专辑并拿下1969年葛莱美最佳新进艺人奖之后，为了让三重唱的民谣曲风更有摇滚节奏于是加入Stephen Stills在Buffalo Springfield时代的老队友Neil Young而成为四重唱，简称CSNY。上承The Byrds、Buffalo Springfield和Hollies六○年代出以来树立的优良民谣摇滚传统，并且四个人各可担任主唱并负责吉他，缔造无懈可击的完美和声，为七○年代名团老鹰合唱团前期乡村摇滚风格的重要影响团体，也由于民谣摇滚、乡村摇滚到老鹰、佛利伍麦克合唱团、琳达朗丝黛的一脉相传，CSNY又被推崇为加州摇滚乐风的始祖，其重要性实在无法抹灭。 这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第148位。

布鲁斯・斯普林斯廷（英语：Bruce Springsteen，1949年）是美国乡村与摇滚的歌手、创作者与吉他手。Springsteen经常与E街乐团共同创作与巡回演出，此外也以个人的身份或是与其它乐手联袂演出。一方面明显地受到埃尔维斯・普雷斯利、伍迪・格思里、皮特・西格、埃迪・科克伦与鲍勃・迪伦的影响，而另一方面也受到60年代以来的摇滚乐与节奏布鲁斯的薰陶，斯普林斯廷的音乐也被称作“heartland rock”，带着流行的风味，诗人般的歌词，与美国爱国主义情结，尤其是以他的家乡新泽西为主轴来环绕。他对于表达一般中下阶层民众的生活，不仅是发自内心的诚恳，更有着悦耳动听的旋律以及辛辣直截的批判，让他得到了数座葛莱梅奖、一个奥斯卡小金人，并进入摇滚名人堂。

对来自俄亥俄州的奇女子Chrissie Hynde来说，叛逆就是一种坚持，难以驯服的摇滚态度，当个反皮衣服饰的行动派，作个追求自然的素食主义者，Chrissie在肯特州立大学念了三年，就在74年只身前往伦敦追逐摇滚生活，以帮NME杂志撰写乐评起头，周游法、美、英等国玩团，76年原本打算邀The Clash乐团的Mike Jones组团，78年，Chrissie与贝斯手Pete Farndon、吉他手James Honeyman-Scott、鼓手Martin Chambers组成The Pretenders，79年以一首The Kinks乐团团员Ray Davis所写的Stop Your Sobbing闯进英国金榜前30名，接以Kid乘胜追击，巡回演唱处处都是爆满人潮。80年首张专辑「The Pretenders」，Chrissie不加修饰的刚强情感嗓音正式引爆风潮，专辑坐上英国榜第9，单曲Brass In Pocket勇冠英国金榜冠军，Talk Of The Town拿下top10，就在80年，The Pretenders的绽放的新摇滚神采席卷美国。

GRAMMY® Award-nominated rock band Death Cab for Cutie's upcoming album “Asphalt Meadows” was produced by GRAMMY® Award-winner John Congleton (St. Vincent, Sharon Van Etten, Wallows). Formed in Bellingham, WA in 1997, Death Cab for Cutie almost immediately entered the ranks of the era’s definitive bands, fuelled in large part by the remarkable power of co-founder, vocalist, guitarist, and lead songwriter Benjamin Gibbard’s complex, often bittersweet songcraft. The band made their worldwide popular breakthrough with 2003’s RIAA gold certified Transatlanticism, later named by NPR as one of “The Decade's 50 Most Important Recordings.” Plans, their 2005 Atlantic Records debut release, saw Death Cab for Cutie ascending to even greater heights, earning RIAA platinum certification and a GRAMMY® Award nomination for “Best Alternative Album” while spawning the chart-topping singles, “Soul Meets Body” and “I Will Follow You into the Dark,” the latter of which was honoured with a GRAMMY® nod for “Best Pop Performance By Duo Or Group With Vocals.” Their following albums – including Narrow Stairs(2008),The Open Door (2009),Codes and Keys(2011), and Kintsugi(2015) – all received various GRAMMY® Award nominations, bringing their total career nominations to eight overall.

这是Elvis Costello的第一张个人专辑，首发于1977年。当时他还是个负责“数据输入”的小职员，业余时间参与一些酒吧的演唱和创作，也曾发行过一些单曲，但反响都不太大。这张专辑的录制基本上都是在深夜进行的，总共录制时间不超过24小时，而为他演奏的乐队成员则基本上是友情支援，由于合约关系，他们中很多人甚至连名字都没有在制作名单里出现。这张艰苦奋斗的专辑取得了不错的成绩，在英国得到了公众的注意，在美国的Billboard也排到了第32位。从此Elvis Costello开始正式进入歌坛。
