专辑介绍:
William Ackerman是Windham Hill公司的创始人之一。这是他1977年的一张吉他音乐,取材于他的亲情、友情的故事,1977年——感觉很遥远的年代,那时的NEW AGE并未有现在这般的气候,William Ackerman的曲风依然在民谣、爵士之间徘徊,并对新的领域进行探索。
听吉它的弹奏是一种很好的休息,一种积极的放松,当我们的思绪随着那跳动的音符上下纷飞时,心中充溢的便满是美好的东西了……
偶然找到一张尘封已久的cd,确实是太久了,不知这样的类型还有人要没,当年将它最为听Grindcore的缓冲。
The lyrical strains of "The Bricklayer's Beautiful Daughter" (the memorable opener on William Ackerman's second album) confirm that the artist was on to something huge in popular music. Nobody knew what to call this new breed of gentle instrumental adventurism. It Takes a Year, like all the early Windham Hill albums, was a breath of pure air at a time when pop music was stuffed with commercialization and irrelevance. Ackerman adeptly blended folk, bluegrass, jazz, and classical influences into an accessible, mild-mannered hybrid style, strong on emotional expression and lyrical depth. Ackerman's solo technique is not showy, and others like Leo Kottke and Michael Hedges may have been more virtuosic in the chops department, yet Ackerman's trump card is his impressionist command of the acoustic guitar. His use of alternate tunings, overdubs, and a sensitive ear for melody helped to trademark this uncluttered sound, tuneful and rich in harmonic overtones. Some of the up-tempo numbers like "The Townshend Shuffle" have a bluegrassy flavor and, in general, the folk influences are readily apparent. But ultimately the music, much of it composed in the early '70s, stands out because it sheds the musical labels and carves its own space — deep emotional sentiments set into calm and reflective backgrounds. It's an open-ended sound, well suited to the spaces of California and the Western U.S. from whence it grew. Although the production quality varies from tune to tune making it a less consistent set than the follow-up Childhood and Memory, It Takes a Year is historically important for new age collectors because it built upon Ackerman's debut and set the mold for things to come. ----------ALL MUSIC
