Cream genre: Rock
release date 1968-01-01 publisher: Polygram Records
吉他之神Eric Clapton的Cream乐队在1968年推出的双CD经典专辑,在牛人林立的1968年取得了骄人的成绩,在全美专辑排行榜列第一,在英国也排到第三,确实非常强。 这张专辑的Disc1叫做In the Studio,是录音棚版,Disc2是Li ve at the Fillmore,现场版,不过两张碟的曲目是不同的,所以没有骗钱的嫌疑 其中第一碟中的White Room还入选了滚石评出的500首最伟大的歌,排名第367,滚石的编辑认为这首歌把歌曲和Clapton的技艺很好地结合在了一起。而第二张碟中的Crossroads中的solo也让滚石的编辑大为赞赏。

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。

Alan Parsons Project genre: Rock
release date 1982-01-01 publisher: Sony Legacy
其實我認識Alan Parsons Project的過程大概與許多搖滾樂迷相同,都是從Pink Floyd那張經典專輯《Dark Side of the Moon》開始,專輯中Speak to me的心跳聲與Money的收銀機聲響,都是Alan Parsons這位錄音工程師匠心獨具的結果,然而Dark Side of the Moon的成功卻不是Alan Parsons發跡的開端。 自 1960年代晚期起,Alan Parsons已經藉由參與the Beatles的《Abbey Road》與《Let It Be》兩張專輯的錄音而在樂壇嶄露頭角了。之後,Alan Parsons還參與了Paul McCartney、George Harrison與Alan Stewart的個人專輯,以及The Hollies與Pilot的錄音與製作工作,The Hollies的He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother便是出自Alan Parsons的手筆。 我買的第一張Alan Parsons Project的專輯是於1983年發行的精選集《The Best of Alan Parsons Project》,80年代的我完全不懂什麼概念專輯,或者是前衛搖滾,當時只覺得真要命,怎麼Alan Parsons Project的情歌這麼好聽,I Wouldn't Be Like You、Eye in the Sky、Time、Don't Let It Show與Old and Wise等歌曲,不僅讓人朗朗上口,而且旋律的經營又是如此獨特、不落俗套,小時候的我暗自以為這就是前衛搖滾的全部了,然而也是因為這種誤打誤撞的單純天真,讓我對Alan Parsons Project有了美好的想像,打開進入其他前衛搖滾團體的大門。 由於Alan Parsons是EMI於英國Abbey Road Studio的錄音工程師,協助許多偉大經典專輯的誕生,Alan Parsons一直希望能夠成立一組專屬於自己樂隊來實踐本身的音樂理念。 在 1974年的時候,Alan Parsons遇到Eric Woolfson(manager/producer/songwriter/singer),深受Stanley Kubrick影響的兩人氣味相投,決定一起成立Alan Parsons Project。顧名思義,Alan Parsons Project是一個由Alan Parsons與Eric Woolfson主導錄音計畫,在每張唱片中,兩人都會依據專輯概念及歌曲特性,找來客席歌手與樂手,像是The Hollies的Allan Clarke、Zombies的Colin Blunstone、Cockney Rebel的Steve Harley、Chris Rainbow、Lenny Zkkatek及吉他手Ian Bairnson等共同合作,因此相較之下,Alan Parsons Project更像是一個合作計畫,而不是一組樂隊。 從1975年發行第一張專輯到1987年解散為止,Alan Parsons Project總共出版了10張專輯,每張專輯都有一個特定的主題作為出發點,像是《Tales of Mystery and Imagination》(1975)是以美國懸疑神秘大師愛倫坡(Edgar Allan Poe)的小說為本,《I Robot》(1977)的創作概念更是直接受到科幻大師Isaac Asimov的同名小說I, Robot的啟發,《Pyramid》(1978)是想要探討金字塔的神秘力量,《The Turn of A Friendly Card》(1980)希望以牌局上的搏弈競賽來比喻人生,《Gaudi》(1987)則擺明是一張向西班牙建築師高第致敬的專輯。這也是為什麼Alan Parsons Project出版的唱片之所以會被成為「概念專輯」的主要原因。 其中,我最喜歡1982年出版的《Eye in the Sky》,這也是Alan Parsons Project最為人熟知的專輯,曾經拿下Billboard專輯榜的第七名。當年從精選集裡聽到這首與專輯同名的歌曲時,心裡相當激動,對一個已經夠苦悶的高中生來說,即將來臨的大學聯考就像一個緊箍咒一樣緊緊地箝住我生活的全部,讓我透不過氣來。 後來才明白,這樣一種以分數為導向的聯考制度像極了George Orwell的經典小說1984裡面,老大哥(Big Brother)主宰一切的世界,在來自四面八方的監視中,個人生活的隱私與慾望蕩然無存,這也是Alan Parsons Project當初創作出《Eye in the Sky》這張專輯的核心概念。據說,當初這張專輯的名稱是因為Eric Woolfson發現賭城飯店的監視系統與美國軍方的間諜衛星系統都是取名Eye in the Sky而來的靈感,因此,某種程度上,《Eye in the Sky》也可以算是對小說1984的有聲回應。 基本上,《Eye in the Sky》是一張極容易入耳的專輯,旋律好聽易記,而且曲式結構的安排不像一般前衛搖滾那樣的複雜難懂,令人望之卻步,然而這也是Alan Parsons Project為人稱頌的地方,因為許多樂迷,包括我自己,都是藉由他們的帶領,才開始進入到所謂的搖滾或者前衛搖滾的世界。聽聽上述的Eye in the Sky以及Old and Wise這兩首中慢版抒情搖滾曲風的歌曲,就可以明白由Eric Woolfson與Chris Rainbow優雅但略帶憂鬱氣味的嗓音唱來,是如何讓人再三回味,而且餘醞無窮。這樣優美流暢的旋律也幾乎讓人忘了隱藏在《Eye in the Sky》這張專輯背後、凸顯全知意像對人類宰制如此嚴肅弘大的企圖。 除此之外,Sirius這首演奏曲是《Eye in the Sky》專輯的另一聆聽重點。Alan Parsons Project本來就非常擅長以電子合成樂器營造磅礡恢弘的氣勢,Sirius更是其中代表(許多運動隊伍或賽事也喜歡以此曲當作暖身或者介紹球員出場,包括1990年代由Michael Jordan領軍時期的芝加哥公牛隊),而由Sirius尾聲節奏不間斷地直接帶出其後Eye in the Sky旋律的主要前奏,更是Alan Parsons Project行走江湖的獨門絕活,兩首合計將近七分鐘的時間,譜成一闕具有交響詩質地的史詩格局,這種模式也於《I Robot》(I Robot + I Wouldn't Want To Be Like You)與《Pyramid》(Voyager + What Goes Up)等專輯中出現,成為Alan Parsons Project音樂的註冊商標。 雖然《Eye in the Sky》這張專輯述說的是人類生活全面受到全知意象宰制的困境,但是人類總是可以利用各種方式來努力擺脫這種老大哥對我們無時不刻的監控,我想這也是 Alan Parsons Project創作音樂的主要動機,藉由音樂,我們可以突破外在世界對心靈的重重枷鎖,直指事物的核心本質。或者也可以不需要談的那麼嚴肅複雜,對一個當時正在準備大學聯考的苦悶高中生來說,在Alan Parsons Project的音樂當中我找到了慰藉,也撫平了自己在年少時期那一個焦躁不安的炙熱靈魂。(by 粉紅機器人六號 @ Rodoo!)
Pet Sounds

The Beach Boys genre: Rock
release date 1966-01-01 publisher: Capitol
Pet Sounds is the eleventh studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released on May 16, 1966, by Capitol Records. It was produced, arranged, and primarily composed by Brian Wilson with guest lyricist Tony Asher. Recorded largely between January and April 1966, it furthered the orchestral sound introduced in The Beach Boys Today! (1965). Initially promoted as "the most progressive pop album ever", Pet Sounds is recognized for its ambitious production, sophisticated harmonic structures, and coming of age themes. It is widely regarded as among the greatest and most influential albums in music history. Wilson viewed Pet Sounds as a solo album and attributed its inspiration partly to marijuana use and an LSD–rooted spiritual awakening. Galvanized by the work of his rivals, he aimed to create "the greatest rock album ever made", surpassing the Beatles' Rubber Soul and extending Phil Spector's Wall of Sound innovations. His orchestrations blended pop, jazz, exotica, classical, and avant-garde elements, combining rock instrumentation with layered vocal harmonies, found sounds, and instruments not normally associated with rock, such as French horn, flutes, Electro-Theremin, bass harmonica, bicycle bells, and string ensembles. Featuring the most complex and challenging instrumental and vocal parts of any Beach Boys album, it was their first in which studio musicians, such as the Wrecking Crew, largely replaced the band on their instruments, and the first time any group had departed from their usual small-ensemble pop/rock band format to create a full-length album that could not be replicated live.

94年,作为滚石“魔岩三杰”之一的张楚,《孤独的人是可耻 的》专辑发行,这张专辑了没有《姐姐》那样令人陶醉的伤感,更多的是对内心的抒发。 专辑中的歌曲的旋律极具无规律性。在音乐里,张楚不仅是一个有巨大内涵的腼腆孩子,更是一个已经跨越了城乡的诗人。所以,即便他后来并没有找到可以带自己回家的“姐姐”,但他依然懂得以孤独者自醒,以卑微者自乐。有人说他是中国最寂寞的歌手,因为他从小四处飘泊流浪, 有人说听他的歌特别感伤,因为歌声浑厚苍茫。他大部份歌曲创作的时候都是走在路上……

“中文”,“尖叫”,很多观众是通过这两个词语来熟悉嘎调,在兵马司旗下的后No Beijing乐队中,只有嘎调仍在坚持只用母语歌唱。 尖叫已经成为了詹盼的标签之一,这是语言之外最能表现嘎调内核的方式——充满了孤独与反抗。他们只是把情绪书写并歌唱出来的年轻人。 作为一支组建了两年的新乐队,嘎调的进步有目共睹,三人的技术与感觉越来越纯熟:詹盼的高音与riff中点缀的blues味道;文杰大跨度品位的运用;再加上王旭越来越稳的鼓点。这一切都可以在3月20日首发的专辑中听到,几首如《圈》、《王子复仇记》、《大》、《两个妈妈》等耳熟能详的歌曲早已被放飞到情感的悬崖之上,而从《生之爱》、《Sea Bird》等相对缓慢的节奏中,相信我们都能感到三个青年对于更开放的心灵与音乐表现形式的野心。
