《艾力普顿：不插电专辑》Eric Clapton在音乐生涯的早期曾经有两个绰号：God上帝和Slowhand（慢手）。God的美誉得自艾力普頓神乎其技的吉他弹奏功夫，Slow-hand指的当是艾力普頓那从容、游刃有余却绝不矫情炫耀的作秀风格，而相反他的速度在他那一代的吉他手中应该是很快的了。作为歌手的艾力普頓，其表现并不逊色于他的吉他作秀。 事实上，从70年代到90年代这三十年中，艾力普頓的歌曲从未在流行音乐排行榜上缺席过，他本人也因其杰出表现贏得过无数的奖项，94年更是凭此歌获得多项大奖。吉他手艾力普頓和歌手艾力普頓这双重的身分交相輝映，缔造了一段四十年的精彩音乐人生。 01 signe 02 before you accuse me 03 hey hey 04 tears in heaven 05 lonely stranger 06 nobody knows you when you re down & out 07 layla 08 running on faith 09 walkin blues 10 alberta 11 san francisco bay blues 12 malted milk 13 old love 14 rollin & tumblin Produccd by russ titelman

The fourth album by the English rock band Led Zeppelin was released on 8 November 1971. No title is printed on the album, so it is generally referred to as Led Zeppelin IV, following the naming standard used by the band's first three studio albums.

The musical collaboration of the decade, Raising Sand is the sound of two iconic figures stepping out of their respective comfort zones and letting their instincts lead them across a brave new sonic landscape. Despite hailing from distinctly different backgrounds, Alison Krauss and Robert Plant share a maverick spirit and willingness to extend the boundaries of their respective genres. This spirit, expertly honed by producer T Bone Burnett, has resulted in an album pitched three steps beyond some cosmic collision of early urban blues, spacious West Texas country, and the untapped potential of the folk-rock revolution. Supported by the unparalleled musicianship of Marc Ribot, Dennis Crouch, Mike Seeger, Jay Bellerose, Norman Blake, Greg Leisz, Patrick Warren, and Riley Baugus, Plant and Krauss -- as both solo and harmony vocalists -- tackle an intriguing selection of songs from such tunesmiths as Tom Waits, Gene Clark, Sam Phillips, Townes Van Zandt, The Everly Broth! ers, and Mel Tillis. Raising Sand finds Robert Plant and Alison Krauss exploring popular music's elemental roots while still sounding effortlessly, breath-takingly contemporary. The song "Killing the Blues" is featured in the new JC Penney American Living Campaign.

这部雄浑壮伟的钜作，正是滚石探索美国音乐集其大成的总验收－－蓝调、乡村、灵魂、福音，从Gram Parsons教给他们的白人歌谣到国会图书馆留下来的二○年代密西西比田野录音，Exile On Main Street探索了摇滚乐所从出的美国文化最深邃的灵魂，也替后世树立了一座绝难攀越的巨碑－－或者该说，一条切进美国音乐古老的心脏地带的Main Street。　　 Exile On Main Street，如今大家都同意，是摇滚乐诞生至斯，最值得纪念的扛鼎之作，可能也是滚石最好的一张唱片－－不幸的是，它也是滚石最后一张真正担得起「伟大」两字的专辑，结束了他们从1968年起算的辉煌年代。
