Coldplay genre: Rock
release date 2002-01-01 publisher: Capitol
Coldplay的首张专辑《Parachutes》是一张集直率、深刻、动人旋律的大作,以回归到音乐源头的作法,来表现其歌曲中内敛但原始的情绪,证明了并非靠着嘶声呐喊才能在乐坛上一鸣惊人。此辑全球销量直逼500万张、获得NME及Q杂志高度评价、2座2001全英音乐奖及2002葛莱美最佳另类专辑。一夜之间,Coldplay从小酒吧到苏格兰格拉斯哥公园、澳洲的Big Day Out活动,甚至屡登头条的美国巡回演唱。 2002年Coldplay推出第二张专辑《A Rush of Blood To The Head》,他们再次起用Parachutes专辑原班人马-混音及制作拍文件Ken Nelson、电脑工程师Mark Phythain。专辑从2001年10月开始筹备,虽然还是一贯Coldplay的酷劲,比起前一张却更加丰富,有更多的快节奏及电子元素蕴含其中,而专辑的走向,基本上还是以个人情绪出发。

Cocteau Twins 在這張專輯中,決定轉而嘗試更具親和力的風格,開篇的《Cherry-Coloured Funk》,Guthrie 無與倫比的結他引領著鈴鼓聲令人耳目一新。專輯節奏低調而清爽,Bass 手 Raymonde 的重低音有力地托起了整個氣氛,主唱 Fraser 清晰直接的歌聲使人入迷,柔和中蘊含著能量和生命力。此外,《Fifty-Fifty Clown》和《Iceblink Luck》等許多歌曲,也都給有令人出乎意料的驚喜。這張專輯被認為是樂隊最好的作品,Cocteau Twins 運用 Dream Pop 迷離的色彩,營造夢幻的國度。

1966年,吉他大师Eric Clapton为了继续施展在布鲁斯方面的抱负,离开了先前的乐队,跑到伦敦找到John Mayall的Bluesbreakers一起合作,仅仅数月之后,Clapton就离开了Bluesbreakers,组建了Cream。然而,就是在这样一次短暂的合作期间,却诞生了一张伟大的专辑,这张专辑从一开始就以Clapton的吉他为卖点,在伦敦引发了对Clapton的崇拜热潮,有fans打出了“Clapton是神!”的标语,吉他之神从此也就成了Clapton的绰号。 这张专辑在布鲁斯摇滚历史上的地位可谓十分显赫,被认为在很多方面创立了布鲁斯摇滚的标准。专辑在该年度进入UK专辑排行榜的前十。 这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第195位。

A Happy Pocket
Douban
The Trash Can Sinatras / Trashcan Sinatras …
publisher: Biem/Stemra
by Tim DiGravina After the glorious pop masterpieces that were the Trash Can Sinatras' first two albums, A Happy Pocket is a bit of a letdown. Murky production, strange vocal effects that obscure Francis Reader 's delicate voice, and an over-reliance on mandolin overdubs make for a generally less than engaging listen. That doesn't mean that there aren't some fine additions to the Trash Can canon, as "The Safecracker," "Twisted & Bent," "How Can I Apply...?," and "The Therapist" are absolutely sublime. One gets the sense that the album was only half complete upon its release. Indeed, a rotating bevy of mixers and engineers are credited with various batches of the songs. At least one-third of the album comes across like a collection of fleshless demos. Particularly stale is the amateurish cover of "To Sir With Love" that sounds as if it was recorded underwater with Reader half-asleep. A Happy Pocket is certainly more subdued than the band's earlier albums, but that's not what makes it disappointing. It's as if the band took a step backward, stripped down their trademark jangling guitars, and decided to rely on studio polish in place of their usually stellar hooks. Had it not been for the stunning musicianship and energy of the previous albums, A Happy Pocket would probably be more enjoyable. But outside of the occasional gems, as stellar as they are, A Happy Pocket lags far behind the band's earlier output due to poor sequencing, some sloppy production choices, and a lack of editing prowess. Had the album been edited down to five or six songs, it would have made a fine mini-album.

release date 2009-04-21 publisher: Jvc Japan/Zoom
The band is currently completing their upcoming fifth album, titled In the Music. Fourteen songs were recorded between 15 November 2007 and 8 December 2007 with producer Andy Chase at Stratosphere Sound in New York. This was followed up with recording sessions in Martha's Vineyard in January and February 2008, and Stratosphere Sound in New York in March and May 2008. In July 2008, Carly Simon recorded backing vocals for the song "Should I Pray?". The band expects the album to be released in early 2009. A single, "Oranges and Apples", was released as a download-only single on 13 October 2008. The song was inspired by Syd Barrett, one of the founding members of Pink Floyd. The single was released in connection with The City Wakes, a festival taking place in Cambridge and London in October 2008. The festival is a tribute to Barrett and intended to raise funds and awareness for mental health issues and the arts. The band is donating proceeds from the download to the Syd Barrett charitable trust.

THE CONCERT FOR GEORGE is currently playing in theatres. (This is being written in October, 2003.) I believe the DVD will include this version with other material, but, since that won't be out until November, I'm only commenting on what's being seen in movie theatres. This is a film of a memorial concert. George Harrison's colleagues and friends gathered at the Royal Albert Hall a years after his death and performed. The film quality is good and so is the sound. Everybody is relaxed. I've always felt THE CONCERT FOR BANGLADESH has an atmosphere of panic. THE CONCERT FOR GEORGE, with an equally stellar line-up, is much more assured than THE CONCERT FOR BANGLADESH. A highlight is a piece featuring Eric Clapton playing a guitar solo with Ravi Shankar's musicians behind him. The piece was written by Ravi Shankar for this event. George Harrison's concept of music which is both Western and Eastern is realized. Paul McCartney sings Harrison's "All Things Must Pass" clearly and sincerely. Tom Petty and Jeff Lynne sing "Handle With Care," the Traveling Wilburys' signature tune. Billy Preston is in fine voice and someone I've never heard of, Joe Brown, performs. His band was managed by Brian Epstein. We are shown a poster for an event at which the Beatles warmed up for Joe Brown's group. Joe Brown's songs are sung in a warm, confident voice and he plays a ukelele. Ukeleles were a major joy for Harrison in his last decade. Ringo sings "Photograph" with better keyboard work than I've ever heard on it. He drums on a couple of the songs Paul sings on. McCartney and Clapton play a segmented "Something," Paul beginning it with a ukelele and Clapton coming in about a third of the way through with a bright electric solo. The drumming at this point successfully duplicates the sound on ABBEY ROAD. Olivia Harrison lights a lamp at the beginning and, throughout the concert, Dhani Harrison plays rhythm guitar. He plays piano during the Ravi Shankar composition. During "Isn't It a Pity," Dhani sings "Nah, nah, nah, nah-nah, nah, nah" in a tipping of the hat to "Hey Jude." After "Isn't It a Pity," Ringo introduces Paul. Michael Palin, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Terry Gilliam (joined by Neil Innes and Tom Hanks, actually) do two skits and Palin makes two humorously pompous speeches. Several times, but not intrusively, the performers speak to the cameras about George. During one or two songs, the voice of an interviewee comes over a song, and that's my one objection. Altogether, this is a movie of a good concert and the last few minutes are really quite moving. I saw it with a small audience, but everybody clapped at the end.

“人类为巴勒斯坦流的血,比为地球上任何地方流的都要多”。起源于巴勒斯坦的犹太人在经历近两千年的流散后,在同一片土地、操着原有的语言重新建国。在这个独一无二的历史事件中,英国的支持起到了关键作用。这一方面是由于不列颠人一直将巴勒斯坦视为自己的精神家园,另一方面,也是出于大英帝国的战略考量。 巴巴拉·塔奇曼通过生动的细节、文学的笔法,以及坚实的史料支撑,记述了从不列颠起源到《贝尔福宣言》的漫长历史中,文化和政治的动机——即“圣经”与“利剑”——如何塑造了英国的近东政策,并深刻影响了近代中东地区的历史进程。
