回复:【小号音乐】Herb Alpert's Tijuana Brass - 1963 - Vol...
简介:
Volume 2 is the second album by Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass, known in this recording as "Herb Alpert's Tijuana Brass". It was released in 1963 on A&M Records, and sold poorly upon initial release. After the T became massively popular with hits from their later albums, Volume 2 was reissued in 1966 and eventually reached #17 on the Billboard album chart. A CD version of the album was issued by A&M Records in 1990 but is now out of print. Some LP copies of the album have a spoken introduction by Herb Alpert at the beginning of "The Great Manolete (La Virgen de la Macarena)".
Volume 2 is available as a download from such online stores as Amazon.com and iTunes. It was made available in February 2007 at the same time as the reissues of the 1969 albums Warm and The Brass Are Comin'. No CD reissue of Volume 2 has been announced. Alpert reportedly felt that the album was of inferior technical quality.
As with The Lonely Bull, the album features some songs with a very Mexican flavor, but with more cover versions of pop hits than were included in that first album, "Spanish Harlem" having been a recent success for Ben E King. "Green Leaves of Summer" was the theme for the film portrayal of the famous Mexican-Texian battle in The Alamo. "Winds of Barcelona" would be reorchestrated as "El Presidente" on the Brass' next album, South of the Border. "Swinger From Seville" is a "strip-tease" tune, complete with audio of cries like "take-it-off" from a raucous audience. The song stands in contrast to the leadoff song, "La Virgen de la Macarena", the traditional title given to "Nuestra Se?ora de la Esperanza" (Our Lady of Hope) (or Mary, the mother of Jesus)... in Seville, Spain. The Brass' rendition of "A-me-ri-ca" inexplicably begins with a bar of "Jingle Bells" as a prelude to a jazzy version of the West Side Story entry that gives no hint of that song's outspoken lyrics
第2卷是Herb Alpert和蒂华纳铜管乐队的第二张专辑,在这张唱片中被称为“Herb Alpert's Tijuana Brass”。它于1963年在A&M唱片公司发行,最初发行时销量不佳。在T凭借其后来专辑中的热门歌曲大受欢迎后,第二卷于1966年重新发行,最终在公告牌专辑排行榜上排名第17。这张专辑的CD版本于1990年由A&M唱片公司发行,但现在已经绝版。这张专辑的一些LP副本在“the Great Manolete(La Virgen de La Macarena)”的开头有Herb Alpert的口头介绍。
第二卷可以从亚马逊和iTunes等在线商店下载。它于2007年2月发行,与1969年专辑《Warm》和《the Brass Are Comin》同时发行。尚未宣布第2卷的CD再版。据报道,Alpert认为这张专辑的技术质量低劣。
与《孤独的公牛》一样,这张专辑收录了一些极具墨西哥风味的歌曲,但翻唱的流行歌曲比第一张专辑中收录的还要多,《西班牙哈莱姆》是本·E·金最近的成功之作。《夏日的绿叶》是电影《阿拉莫》中著名的墨西哥-得克萨斯战役的主题。“巴塞罗那之风”将在Brass乐队的下一张专辑《边境之南》中以“El Presidente”的形式重新录制。《来自塞维利亚的摇摆人》是一首“”曲调,伴随着喧闹的观众发出的“脱下它”之类的哭声。这首歌与主打歌“La Virgen de La Macarena”形成了鲜明对比,这首歌是对“希望圣母”(或耶稣的母亲玛丽)的传统称呼。。。在西班牙塞维利亚。Brass演唱的《A-me-ri-ca》莫名其妙地以一小节《铃儿响叮当》开始,这是《西区故事》爵士版的前奏,丝毫没有暗示这首歌直言不讳的歌词
