Buffalo Springfield(水牛春田合唱团)是一支生命力短暂但较有影响的美国民谣摇滚乐队。它曾是Neil Young、 Stephen Stills、 Richie Furay 和 Jim Messina音乐事业的跳板。乐队最为流行的曲目是"For What It's Worth"。这首"For What It's Worth"也成为了影视金曲,在《阿甘正传》,《战争之王》等深刻讨论人性的作品中都出现。
自1966年4月成立后,乐队历经的内部口角、外部音乐行业的压力等导致乐队成员频繁更换,最终乐队也以短短的25个月的“寿命”解散。 Buffalo Springfield 一共发行过三张专辑,另外留下了许多demo和现场录音带。

release date 1998-01-01
publisher:
Atlantic Records
Giant Steps(1959,Atlantic):就當時的認知與製作概念而言,「Giant Steps」才是John Coltrane個人首張正式專輯(先前與John Coltrane有合約關係的唱片公司,都是在他成名之後,才紛紛以John Coltrane名義發行專輯)。就原創性與演奏難度而言,「Giant Steps」都是現代爵士樂的重要教材,對聽眾來說,急速變化的和弦進行,已經到了「耳花撩亂」的地度,這張專輯不但總結了John Coltrane之前的學習與努力,也是一個關鍵轉捩點:John Coltrane許新鮮的想法,需要另組新團來執行。特別注意抒情的「Naima」,簡單抒情的旋律,是每個人都聽得懂得雋永名曲,也是內向的Coltrane豐沛情感抒發的具體表現。

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。

这是“地下丝绒”的第一张专辑,也是摇滚乐历史上的一张划时代的经典之作。从专辑的名称上面可以清 楚地看到,这张专辑的诞生与西方现代艺术史上的伟大人物安迪·沃霍尔是密切相关的。这张“地下丝绒”的处女专辑就是由安迪·沃霍尔担任制作人的,而且专辑的名称也署上了他的大名。
在这张专辑里面,主唱卢·里德以他那干涩、沙哑的犹如破碎的玻璃一样的嗓音将1960年代美国青年对于现实的迷茫、反叛的态度表达得淋漓尽致,同时也对当时的社会现实作出了深刻的揭露。如在《我正在等待那个男人》这首歌里面,讲述的就是一个关于进行非法的海洛因交易的故事,把吸毒作为歌曲的主题,这在他们之前的乐队里面是非常罕见的,因此可以看出他们在音乐表达题材上面的大胆。而《星期天的早晨》这首歌则讲述了一个偏执狂在理想与现实之中挣扎的现实,他就像那个可怜的西西弗斯一样奔波在希望与绝望之间,这可以说是当时青年内心生活的真实写照。在《穿裘皮的维纳斯》这首歌里面,则表达了一个更为离经叛道的主题,那就是“性倒错”,他们以超越道德观的态度表达了自己对于“同性恋”这个当时还是一个禁忌的话题的看法。可见,他们在自己的音乐里面充分的体现了“自由”的精神,而这正是摇滚最为重要的精神财富。
在专辑之中担任了两首歌曲的主唱的女歌手尼柯,曾经主演过安迪·沃霍尔制作的几部电影,由于他的介绍,才成为了“地下丝绒”的一员。尼柯那种冷漠、飘忽,充满着厌世的没落气息的声音深刻地影响了后来无数的女歌手。

Electric Ladyland是张双唱片专集,是Jimi Hendrix跨领域音乐天才横溢的表现。涉猎了多种音乐类型,包括<Burning of the Midnight Lamp>的迷幻色彩(之前的1967年夏在英国推出过单曲),蓝调感吉它演绎的<Voodoo Chile>,新奥尔良摇滚的<Come On>,史诗式录音室製作的<1983... (A Merman I Should Turn to Be)>,评论社会的"House Burning Down"等等。专集亦收录了翻唱Bob Dylan作品的<All Along the Watchtower>,受到包括Bob Dylan自己和其它人的讚扬。还有<Voodoo Child (Slight Return)>长久以来都是电台和吉它乐手必奏曲目。
在他的专辑中,乐迷们最喜欢的专辑是《Electric LadyLand》,史诗式魔幻元素一浪接一浪,很取悦耳朵。
The Alfred Hitchcock Hour Season 1 (1962)

阿尔弗雷德·希区柯克
A continuation of the dramatic anthology series hosted by the master of suspense and mystery. When the series Alfred Hitchcock Presents was revived in 1962, the name was changed, but the format stayed fairly true to the original. In each episode, viewers would be strung along with the story, never knowing which way the final twist would turn.
Freak Out
Douban
Frank Zappa & The Mothers of Invention
genre:
Rock
release date 1995-05-02
publisher:
Rykodisc
One of the most ambitious debuts in rock history, Freak Out! was a seminal concept album that somehow foreshadowed both art rock and punk at the same time. Its four LP sides deconstruct rock conventions right and left, eventually pushing into territory inspired by avant-garde classical composers. Yet the album is sequenced in an accessibly logical progression; the first half is dedicated to catchy, satirical pop/rock songs that question assumptions about pop music, setting the tone for the radical new directions of the second half. Opening with the nonconformist call to arms &Hungry Freaks, Daddy,& Freak Out! quickly posits the Mothers of Invention
as the antithesis of teen-idol bands, often with sneering mockeries of the teen-romance songs that had long been rock's commercial stock-in-trade. Despite his genuine emotional alienation and dissatisfaction with pop conventions, though,
Frank Zappa was actually a skilled pop composer; even with the raw performances and his stinging guitar work, there's a subtle sophistication apparent in his unorthodox arrangements and tight, unpredictable melodicism. After returning to social criticism on the first song of the second half, the perceptive Watts riot protest &Trouble Every Day, & Zappa exchanges pop song structure for experiments with musique concrète, amelodic dissonance, shifting time signatures, and studio effects. It's the first salvo in his career-long project of synthesizing popular and art music, high and low culture; while these pieces can meander, they virtually explode the limits of what can appear on a rock album, and effectively illustrate Freak Out!'s underlying principles: acceptance of differences and free individual expression.
Zappa would spend much of his career developing and exploring ideas -- both musical and conceptual -- first put forth here; while his myriad directions often produced more sophisticated work, Freak Out! contains at least the rudiments of almost everything that followed, and few of Zappa's records can match its excitement over its own sense of possibility.
