💿VAN MORRISON《ASTRAL WEEKS 》
⏳️1968年11月29日發行

一張寬廣遼闊的大碟，對生命、死亡、朋友、愛情的抒發，關於一切，可卻什麼都沒有、過去和現在、生氣盎然和轉瞬即逝…...大碟有一份既年輕又年老的情感，在沒有傳統的音樂結構和詩般的歌詞下，就是依從內心情感的綻放譜下去，充滿嚮往和完整的願景！

《ASTRAL WEEKS 》的監製Lewis Merenstein曾說過, "I started crying. It just vibrated in my soul, and I knew that I wanted to work with that sound."

儘管《ASTRAL WEEKS 》在創作和製作過程中充滿矛盾、複雜、艱巨的外圍因素，加上風格多樣（被稱是民謠、藍調、搖滾、爵士樂和古典音樂的混合體）但當音樂和情感綻放，樂音不受風格約束，樂手融為一，就這樣呈現了這幅永恆的藝術作品，且一直被傳頌下一去！

1965年成立的THE BLUES PROJECT，可能被介定是blues rock風格的美國樂隊，呈現的音樂，正如1966推出的第二張大碟名字《The Projections 》一樣，要比blues rock更多！

"I Can’t Keep from Crying"，以凌厲的管風琴與雄偉的聲樂揭開序幕。"Steve's Song"開始時有一種鋒利的感覺，或許是用60年代的管風琴作前奏所致，隨後卻演變成優美的搖滾民謠。 "Two Trains Running"是另一首激動人心的好作品，十分鐘的音樂引人入勝！AL KOOPER獨特的管風琴演繹和音色再次成為亮點，帶出了歌曲的痛苦.....…“Wake Me Shake Me" 和"Cheryl's Going Home"再度牽動脈搏，舞動搖滾。"Flute Thing"放慢腳步，走進美麗非常的旋律音韻中，令人縈繞幾天…...

一支才華橫溢的樂隊，樂手在《The Projections 》中將音樂推向不同方向，卻沒有參差不齊，即使有時聽起來像是即興演奏，每個音符卻似乎經過深思熟慮，非常緊湊貫徹，充滿爆發力！

樂隊THE BLUES PROJECT雖然短暫，《The Projections》卻是永遠長存！

英國吉他手STEVE HILLAGE(KHAN,GONG)於1976年發行的第二張個人大碟《L》。

一張多樣化風格，音樂卻是首首緊扣的大碟；中世紀風格、太空搖滾、印度風格來回穿梭。重新演繹的DONOVAN作品"Hurdy Gurdy Man”搖滾非常，豐富精彩！滑入"Hurdy Gurdy Glissando"，繼續在搖滾與外太空穿梭…… 隨著"Electrick Gypsies"舞動搖滾後，旋即進入"Om Nama Shivaya"的印度氣氛裡；印度風格的吉他與歌手的演繹帶領聽眾遊走“印度搖滾的風味”，並為"Lunar Musick Suite"揭開序幕……

《L》收錄了幾種異國樂器，這些樂器創造出温暖且獨有的聲音，與其他現代樂器穿越時空，拼發出璀璨的搖滾火花，並且不是一瞬即逝，是STEVE HILLAGE、TODD RUNDGREN及其樂隊UTOPIA與其他出色樂手共同努力下的精彩作品！

創作沿於靈感，靈感沿於生活，拋開既有風格，隨感傾注每個樂音....

💿《ISLANDS》by KING CRIMSON
⏳️發行年份：1971

《ISLANDS》或許這是KING CRIMSON轉入新時代(新成員加入，除ROBERT FRIPP外)的一次新嘗試。因KING CRIMSON的前三張大碟來勢洶洶，風格被既定，《ISLAND》就被視作是古怪或遭省評的作品。

相對前三張大碟，《ISLANDS》是一個過渡，一個探索，是自然不過的產物。有夢幻而圓潤，也有錯亂至熱情衝勁澎湃....這張大碟不是古怪無聊，而是一張耐聽、美麗且獨特的作品；每首歌都有一種“號召力”，沒有一首歌蓋過其他歌曲，它們都在同一水平上，使得這張專輯非常一致，卻是獨特！

============================

🎼MUSICIANS：
• Robert Fripp / guitar, Mellotron, pedal harmonium (6), effects
• Mel Collins / flute, bass flute (6), saxes, backing vocals
• Raymond "Boz" Burrell / bass, lead vocals
• Ian Wallace / drums, percussion, backing vocals
• Peter Sinfield / lyrics

• Paulina Lucas / soprano vocals (1)
• Keith Tippet / piano

💿《Private Parts & Pieces II - Back To The Pavilion》by ANTHONY PHILLIPS
⏳️發行年份：1980
============================

《Private Parts & Pieces II - Back To The Pavilion》是前GENESIS 創團成員之一ANTHONY PHILLIPS的第五張大碟， 是一張創作精緻的作品（稱為作品是因為它像一幅油畫，像唱片封套的彩色畫，有一種細膩精緻的感覺)。或許會聽到有樂隊GENESIS的《Trepass》的影子， 但你一定可以在每個音符、旋律、每個琴音、吉他聲中找到ANTHONY PHILLIPS 的聲音。開首雖由長組曲“Scottish Suite"以中及短曲像拼貼般呈現，整張作品卻乾淨冷靜，帶領聽眾慢慢逃離、進入迷人並異想天開的境界。如ANTHONY PHILLIPS 的一貫作風，沒有任何所謂“突出”的樂曲，一些樂曲更放在較後位置，加上偶然的淡入，讓聽眾在享受音樂的同時不知不覺已隨音樂走得更遠....
