专辑介绍:
从第一次听他的歌开始就被他低沉而且沧桑的嗓音所吸引住了,可能像他这样嗓音的歌手有很多,但是每次听都有不同的感觉,尤其该歌手在MV中拿着一把吉他站在一片已经发黄的草地上,迎面吹来的微风打在他那有一点发白的头发上时,顿时让我陷入沉思!Steve Forbert这位吟游诗人,在民谣歌手中独树一帜,Strange Names And New Sensations这张专辑充分体现了他的特点。新版本的经典旋律Romeo's Tune也收录在此专辑中,非常值得品味。
Nearly thirty years after Steve Forbert established himself as a singer/songwriter to watch, his muse doesn't appear to be contacting him as often as it once did, and while there was a three-year layoff between 2007's Strange Names and New Sensations and his previous album, the results suggests Forbert was hard-put to come up with something to say during the preceding 36 months. While "The Baghdad Dream" is a potent and passionate anti-war number, beyond that Forbert sounds most engaged on "Strange Names (North New Jersey's Got 'Em)," a would-be novelty number which tries to wring laughs out of the existence of towns like Ho-ho-kus, Hackensack and Cheesequake, and there's something a bit troubling about hearing Forbert trying to compete with the likes of Christine Lavin, especially since he doesn't sound that comfortable with the notion. Aging and loss dominate much of Strange Names and New Sensations (not hard to understand since Forbert turned fifty during the gap between albums), but "Middle Age" and "Thirty More Years" don't have much new or compelling to say about every person's war against time, and "Simply Spalding Gray," while obviously well intentioned, sound more like an obituary than an attempt to explore the tragedy of Gray's suicide. And it doesn't bode well that Forbert can't wring more drama or passion from his relationship with God ("I Will Sing Your Praise") than his musings over a girl he loves in New Jersey ("My Seaside Brown-Eyed Girl") ? or that he pads out this set with an instrumental ("Around the Bend") and a new recording of his biggest hit ("Romeo's Tune"). As a performer, Forbert still has charm and warmth to share, but Strange Names and New Sensations doesn't bode well for his future of Forbert as a tunesmith.
