英伦三岛这片历史悠久、美妙如仙境的乐土似乎特别容易孕育摇滚怪才，并使他们的艺术嫩芽得以萌发，如波诺（Bono，U2乐队主唱）、民谣朋克乐队The Pogues的烂牙酒鬼西恩·麦克格瓦（Shane MacGowan）以及倍受柯特·科本（Kurt Cobain）推崇的凡士林乐队（Vaseline）主唱凯利·尤金（Kelly Eugene）等。传声头像的灵魂人物大卫·拜恩就是出生于1952年5月14日的苏格兰人。

Sounds of Silence is an album by Simon and Garfunkel, released on January 17, 1966. The album's title is a slight modification of the title of the duo's first major hit, " The Sounds of Silence", which was released previously on the album Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M., and also on the soundtrack to the movie The Graduate. It was taken from their debut and electric instruments and drums were overdubbed by Bob Dylan's studio band on June 15, 1965 and released in September 1965 as a single. "Homeward Bound" was released on the album in the UK. It was also released as part of the box set Simon & Garfunkel Collected Works, on both LP and CD.

Throughout his career, Tom Waits has created milestone albums that serve both to refine the music that has come before, and to signal a new phase in his career: Rain Dogs and Mule Variations are both counted by fans as among these pivotal works. Now comes Bad As Me, his first studio album of all new music in seven years, which finds Tom Waits in possibly the finest voice of his career and at the height of his songwriting powers, working with a veteran team of gifted musicians and longtime co-writer/producer Kathleen Brennan. From the opening horn-fueled chug of “Chicago,” to the closing barroom chorale of “New Year’s Eve,” Bad As Me displays the full career range of Waits’ songwriting, from beautiful ballads like “Last Leaf,” to the avant cinematic soundscape of “Hell Broke Luce,” a battlefront dispatch. On tracks like “Talking at the Same Time,” Waits shows off a supple falsetto, while on blues burners like “Raised Right Men” and the gospel tinged “Satisfied” he spits, stutters and howls. Like a good boxer, these songs are lean and mean, with strong hooks and tight running times. And there is a pervasive sense of players delighting in each other’s musical company that brings a feeling of loose joy even to the album’s saddest songs. Bad As Me is a Tom Waits album for the ages.

'We would love for this music to make our fans feeeeel something, for it to stir some sh*t up inside of them, whatever that may be,' says singer Karen O. 'SO much feeling went into this record, it was the rope ladder thrown down into the ditch for us to climb up and dust ourselves off. I hope others can climb up it too; we're excited to share the good vibes.' The band, whose members were once lovingly labeled by Rolling Stone as the 'goth, the nerd and the slut' have recorded three studio albums: All 3 albums were nominated for a GRAMMY award for Best Alternative Music Album. The first, 'Fever to Tell', was named as the best album of the year by The New York Times. The Patrick Daughters-directed video 'Maps' was nominated for four MTV Video Music Awards. The certified-Gold album was named by Rolling Stone, Pitchfork Media, and NME as one of the best albums of the decade. The second, 'Show Your Bones', was named the second best album of the year by NME. Rolling Stone magazine named it the one of the best album of the year, while Spin Magazine ranked it in their 40 best albums of 2006. Their third studio album, 'It's Blitz!', was named the second best album of the year by NME magazine, It's Blitz! was named as the second best album of 2009 by Spin Magazine and third best of 2009 by NME along with the single 'Zero' from the album listed as the best track of the year by both. And onto 'Mosquito!'

“Thriller”专辑一共有7首单曲先后进榜，其中最受欢迎的二支单曲分别为“Billie Jean”“Beat It”，前者蝉聊7周单曲冠军，后者则由Van Halen的灵魂人物Eddie Van Halen跨刀演出；“The Girl Is Mine”是他与Paul McCartney首次合作的作品，歌曲中两人争风吃醋的对话，不觉让人莞尔，另外专辑亦收绿Top4“Thriller”、Top5“Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin”和Top7“Human Nature”等曲子，是乐迷不可错过的经典佳作。

by Stephen Thomas Erlewine Reteaming with the Band, Bob Dylan winds up with an album that recalls New Morning more than The Basement Tapes, since Planet Waves is given to a relaxed intimate tone -- all the more appropriate for a collection of modest songs about domestic life. As such, it may seem a little anticlimactic since it has none of the wildness of the best Dylan and Band music of the '60s -- just an approximation of the homespun rusticness. Considering that the record was knocked out in the course of three days, its unassuming nature shouldn't be a surprise, and sometimes it's as much a flaw as a virtue, since there are several cuts that float into the ether. Still, it is a virtue in places, as there are moments -- "On a Night Like This," "Something There Is About You," the lovely "Forever Young" -- where it just gels, almost making the diffuse nature of the rest of the record acceptable.

这是一张难以用任何语言来形容和赞美的经典专辑，在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第34（我个人认为这个排名太低了！），我知道至少还有一个人会同意我的观点，那就是Eric Clapton。1968年，当这位吉他大师听到这张专辑的时候，忽然发现，原来摇滚乐还可以这样！于是他立刻解散了自己当时的乐队，开始新的奋斗。用他自己的话说，The Band改变了他的人生。 The Band和Bob Dylan的关系可谓非常密切，专辑名称中的“Big Pink”就是他们在一起鼓捣音乐的那栋租来的旧房子。专辑里的那首I shall be released就是Dylan的作品。但当Dylan提出在专辑中演奏的要求时，他们却拒绝了，鼓手Levon Helm说，我们不能总靠Bob Dylan的人气混日子（We didn't want to just ride his shirttail all the time），the Band用他们的实力表明，他们的优秀确实不需要依靠Bob Dylan的加入来证明。 专辑首发于1968年，这里发布的是2000年重新灌录的版本，除改善音质之外，还增加了几首当年没有发行的demo，更具收藏价值。

Bruce Springsteen在1982年推出的一张回归民谣风格的专辑。专辑的配器极其“简单”，吉他和口琴几乎就完全构成了歌曲的铺垫，这种Bob Dylan式的民谣在当时已经很难引起轰动，Bruce也没有对它进行特别的宣传炒作，因此它在专辑榜上最高也只排到第三，销量也马马虎虎，至今只有百万。然而，如果用心去听，可以感受到这是一张很有乡土感和现实感的专辑，很朴实，也很恳切，非常耐听。因此，尽管商业上并不成功，仍然有许多人认为这是Bruce生涯中最优秀的专辑之一，甚至在美国流行音乐史上也是值得记录的杰作。 这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第224位

When I was small I always thought that songwriters sat alone at upright pianos in cramped smoky little rooms with a bottle and an ashtray and everything came in the window blew through them and came out of the piano as a song…and in a weird way that is exactly what happens. What’s Orphans? I don’t know. Orphans is a dead end kid driving a coffin with big tires across the Ohio River wearing welding goggles and a wife beater with a lit firecracker in his ear. At the center of this record is my voice. I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice, I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer…I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument. Kathleen and I wanted the record to be like emptying our pockets on the table after an evening of gambling, burglary, and cow tipping. We enjoy strange couplings, that’s how we got together. We wanted Orphans to be like a shortwave radio show where the past is sequenced with the future, consisting of things you find on the ground, in this world and no world, or maybe the next world. Whatever you imagine that to be. If a record really works at all, it should be made like a homemade doll with tinsel for hair and seashells for ears stuffed with candy and money. Or like a good woman’s purse with a Swiss army knife and a snake bite kit. Orphans contains songs for all occasions. Some of the songs were written in turmoil and recorded at night in a moving car, others were written in hotel rooms and recorded in Hollywood during big conflamas. That’s when conflict weds drama. At any rate these are the ones that survived the flood and were rescued from the branches of trees after the water’s retreat. Gathering all this material together was like rounding up chickens at the beach. It’s not like you go into vault and check out what you need. Most of it was lost or buried under the house. Some of the tapes I had to pay ransom for to a plumber in Russia. You fall into the vat. We started to write just to climb out of the vat. Then you start listening and sorting and start writing in response to what you hear. And more recording. And then you get bit by a spider, go down the gopher hole, and make a whole different record. That was the process pretty much the last three years. Then we met Karl Derfler, a wizard engineer who works at Bay Side Studios in Richmond, CA, in the science fiction part of town. A battlefield medic, he did a Lazarus on a number of the songs and recorded all the new material. On Orphans there is a mambo about a convict who breaks out of jail with a fishbone, a gospel train song about Charlie Whitman and John Wilkes Boothe, a delta blues about a disturbing neighbor, a spoken word piece about a woman who was struck by lightening, an 18th century Scottish madrigal about murderous sibling rivalry, an American backwoods a cappella about a hanging. Even a song by Jack Kerouac and a spiritual with my own personal petition to the Lord with prayer…There’s even a show tune about an old altar boy and a rockabilly song about a young man who’s begging to be lied to. I think you will find more singing and dancing here than usual. But I hope fans of more growling, more warbling, more barking, more screeching won’t be disappointed either. Tom Waits August 2006
