专辑介绍:
Sloppy Joe玩儿起音乐来可从不Sloppy,他们在音乐以Ska、Reggae为框架,并大胆地融入Jazz、Soul等元素。Sloppy Joe的这张新专辑中有着很强的复古风情,音乐一响起你就会不禁想起德国摇滚教母Nina Hagen1979年专辑《Unbe Hagen》那首开头曲《African Reggae》。
关于Ska:
早在50年代的中期,美国的节奏布鲁斯(Rhythm and Blues ——也就是我们现在所说的R&B),通过迈阿密、新奥尔良、孟菲斯等地的广播电台传入牙买加后,当地的一些音乐家便将其与牙买加当地的传统民间音乐Mento(门特)相融合,并混杂了美式灵歌的演唱,逐渐形成了Ska(斯卡)音乐。Ska音乐的速度较快,感觉更容易让人随之舞动蹦跳起来,更加活泼跳跃,节奏强调反拍的重音,乐队中除了采用传统的Mento音乐的乐器(如木吉他、各种拉美打击乐器)外还加入了铜管乐、电吉他、电贝司和键盘等乐器,并突出铜管的华丽色彩。而电吉它的反拍切分演奏技巧也更是体现了Ska音乐的特性,更容易与其他音乐区别开来。
1964年,Millie Small的一首《My Boy Lollpop》在美国流行,这也是国际音乐圈关注Ska音乐的开始(60年代,在英国,Ska被称为Bluebeat)。尤其在七十年代末的英国,受当时流行的Punk和New Wave音乐的影响,衍生出一批像The Clash、The Specials这样大名鼎鼎的Ska-Punk(朋克)、Ska Revival(复兴)风格的乐队。
Ska不仅延承了Mento中诙谐的论题和音乐上的特点,其更为欢快的节奏则更能体现出牙买加这个充满阳光和希望的加勒比海岛国的开放与热情。
Wherever the Flic Flac Circus is, I have a horrible feeling its star performers include a tired elephant sporting a sad polka dot hat, a lion confined to a tiny cage for too long and some alcoholic clowns.
Harsh, perhaps, but after the bright opener 'Saint' from Portuguese crew Sloppy Joe, in which sharp guitars and brass promise a lively show, the performance soon proves itself to be dated and ridden with clichÈs.
There are few words strong enough to condemn the use of the lyrics 'Six little monsters, walking down the street' especially if these particular monsters have a 'funky beat'. 'Love Roots' in contrast, helps sooth the nerves set on edge by all those little monsters.
The overall effect is a little flattening, with too many references to burning fires and rhymes which are used too obviously for the sake of rhyme. None of this would be of particular issue, but essentially there is no real kick to the album, that element so vital to successful ska and Marta Ren's smooth vocals do not seem to lend themselves to the music, but to something altogether gentler.
Amusingly, the 'hidden' track in which the Flic Flac reference is revealed is one of the best on the album, but why hide this away? Flic Flac Circus has its moments, but too few, and if you want to find the best in it you have to pick it out from in-between the bland ('Blue Star'), the stale ('Burnin' Ship'), and the aurally offensive ('Six Little Monsters').
