Live at the Regal专辑介绍

毫无疑问地,这绝对是史上最棒的蓝调现场演唱专辑;这张专辑对64年之后所有的蓝调吉他手的影响力仿佛中国军事演习对于台湾股市。在这张专辑中,B.B.King展现它一贯的风格,以最少的音符表达最庞大的情感。这张专辑让所有吉他手痛恨味道这两个字,你能模仿B.B.King所弹得每一个音,但那永远无法听来像B.B. King。
传奇人物B.B.King毋庸质疑是二十世纪后半叶吉他领域里的权威人物,是这个时代布鲁斯音乐的领导者之一。一个有所成就的Blues吉他手如果没有经过音乐大师的指导是不可想象的,而B.B.King却是凭着自己的灵感与努力创立了自己的音乐风格。
这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第141位。
B.B. King is not only a timeless singer and guitarist, he's also a natural-born entertainer, and on Live at the Regal the listener is treated to an exhibition of all three of his talents. Over percolating horn hits and rolling shuffles, King treats an enthusiastic audience (at some points, they shriek after he delivers each line) to a collection of some of his greatest hits. The backing band is razor-sharp, picking up the leader's cues with almost telepathic accuracy. King's voice is rarely in this fine of form, shifting effortlessly between his falsetto and his regular range, hitting the microphone hard for gritty emphasis and backing off in moments of almost intimate tenderness. Nowhere is this more evident than at the climax of "How Blue Can You Get," where the Chicago venue threatens to explode at King's prompting. Of course, the master's guitar is all over this record, and his playing here is among the best in his long career. Displaying a jazz sensibility, King's lines are sophisticated without losing their grit. More than anything else, Live at the Regal is a textbook example of how to set up a live performance. Talking to the crowd, setting up the tunes with a vignette, King is the consummate entertainer. Live at the Regal is an absolutely necessary acquisition for fans of B.B. King or blues music in general. A high point, perhaps even the high point, for uptown blues.
