The Complete Billie Holiday On Verve 1945 - 1959

发行时间:1992-09-29
发行公司:Verve Reissues
简介:  Billie Holiday一直都是最有名的爵士乐女歌手,甚至在她逝世40年后,还是如此。 “Lady Day”(Lester Young这样称呼她)有一副音量不高而且也不吵杂的嗓音,但她的创新意识却使她在音乐界具有很大的影响力。她将自己的感情融入她所演唱的歌曲中(尤其是在她演唱生涯的后半期),这给人留下了深刻的印象,有些时候她的全身心投入甚至会让人感到震惊。她有时的确生活在她所演唱歌曲的世界里。她的原名和出生地很长一段时间里都被搞错了,但感谢Donald ClarkMoon上找到了Billie Holiday的权威性的生平介绍,我们才能准确写下她的名字。 Holiday的早年生活充满了传奇色彩,这要归咎与她离奇的自传Lady Sings the Blues,但说她的生活不稳定却并不过分。她的父亲Clarence Holiday (他从未娶过Billie的母亲)曾和Fletcher Henderson一起演奏吉他。他很早就抛弃了他的家庭,而她母亲也不是一个好的典范。Billie在很大程度上说是独自一人长大的,没人爱和终身自卑的感觉一直缠绕着她,这也导致她一生中都勇于冒险以及渐渐变得有些自我破坏欲。 The Complete Billie Holiday On Verve 1945-1959 这张专辑,是她音乐风格的完全呈现,精选的这些歌曲,令人听后回味无穷。       by Scott Yanow   This is a rather incredible collection: ten CDs enclosed in a tight black box that includes every one of the recordings Verve owns of Billie Holiday, not only the many studio recordings of 1952-57 (which feature Lady Day joined by such jazz all-stars as trumpeters Charlie Shavers and Harry "Sweets" Edison, altoist Benny Carter, and the tenors of Flip Phillips, Paul Quinichette and Ben Webster). Also included are prime performances at Jazz at the Philharmonic concerts in 1945-1947, an enjoyable European gig from 1954, her "comeback" Carnegie Hall concert of 1956, Holiday's rather sad final studio album from 1959, and even lengthy tapes from two informal rehearsals. It's a perfect purchase for the true Billie Holiday fanatic.
