奥尔曼兄弟乐队,The Allman Brothers Band来自乔治亚南方的Macon城。Macon(梅肯)这个城市大约7万5千人口,是一个不发达的小城。和这个小城一样,乐队有著美国南方草根阶层的豪爽。
The Allman Brothers Band在国内好像不为人所知,这绝对是一个遗憾。关於它的中文译名有很多,比如奥尔曼兄弟乐队,阿尔芒兄弟乐队,但我最喜欢的是:人皆兄弟,颇有水浒中的「四海之内皆我兄弟」味道,特别是你听了这张《At Fillmore East》的现场录音后会有更深的体会。

组合介绍

乐队成立於六十年代末,由Duane Allman和他的弟弟Gregg Allman组建,最初的名字叫「Allman Joys」,后来又陆续加入了打击乐手Butch Trucks和Joe Johnny Johanson,贝司手Berry Oakley和另一位极其优秀的主音吉他手Dickey Betts。Duane三年中参与录制了三张半专辑,其中那半张是因为在录制到一半时Duane就去世了(死於摩托车事故)。这些专辑分别是:《The Allman Brothers Band》(1970)、《Idlewild》(1970)、《At Fillmore East》(1971)和《Eat A Peach》(1972)。Duane Allman还参与了EricClapton名曲Layla结尾部分的伴奏。

社会价值

如今的The Allman Brothers Band已经是面目全非,Gregg Allman继承著哥哥的摇滚理想,依然不断有新作问世,但已不复昔日的盛况。
这张专辑是一个分水岭。在此之前,南方摇滚只是一个边缘化的类型,不为人重视。这张专辑给南方摇滚正名,此后的美国摇滚不可避免地带上了南方摇滚的根源。他们将内敛的Blues(布鲁斯)和即兴的爵士演奏手法结合在一起,创造了南方摇滚(South Rock)的传奇。而随著Duane Allman的去世,南方摇滚终於没能抵挡得了「不列颠入侵」。

作品

〔滑棒吉他的最高杰作〕
滑棒吉他(Slide Guitar)演奏以其华美的音色、呢喃般的旋律在西方摇滚界却已风靡数十年而真正使滑棒吉他风靡摇滚界的则是Duane Allman,可谓是「蓝调摇滚滑棒吉他之父」,他在这张现场专辑《At Fillmore East》中天马行空的奇妙表现使人们对即兴演奏有了全新的理解。Duane Allman英年早逝(24岁),但在吉他英雄谱上仅次於Jimi Hendrix排在第二位。」Whipping Post」中爵士乐的即兴演奏长达22分钟,乐手之间的合奏令人叫绝。」In Memory of Elizabeth Reed」 旋律优美,千回百转。Dickey Betts以及Gregg Allman分别操著乡村味道的吉他以及键盘,配合得天衣无缝。

创作背景

专辑的多首乐曲都是超长的,经常有乐器竟飙,有史诗的气魄,令人大呼过瘾。你不知道他们会把你带到哪里去,你希望它永远不会停止。那真是一个摇滚英雄辈出的年代。以下是来自网友的文章这一群AllmanBrothers究竟属于什么人?音乐评论家们问。白人青年在唱黑人蓝调的什么?接下来的几年,Allman Brothers没有回答这个问题,却提出更多问题。70年代初期,Allman Brothers录制了一张唱片,在音乐中加入了爵士乐的成分。爵士乐也是黑人音乐,不过,是冷感的,经常是很理性的,演奏包括大量的、复杂的乐器组合以及少数的人声。这个时期的一般流行歌曲,平均长度不过两三分钟,而Allman Brothers制作的几首歌长达10到20分钟。还有,爵士音乐并非是乡下黑人的音乐,而是挤在大城市公寓里的黑人音乐。AllmanBrothers究竟属于什么人?评论家们再次发问。然而,Allman Brothers从来没有做临终忏悔的交代。乐队最后的唱片展现了美国乡村音乐风味。这种音乐正是美国梦怀的小镇居民们所爱。唱片展现了典型的乡村音乐特色,伴随摇铃般的优美回旋,间或微微的叹息。乡村音乐的主旋律表达被艰苦劳做和贫困折磨的妇女和家庭。发明乡村音乐的南方白人,好多人和唱蓝调的黑人穷乡亲的生活其实很相近,因此从蓝调里借了不少东西。而到了此时,音乐评论家终于给Allman Brothers归出了类:这是一个融合性的乐队。换句话说,他们拿来所能发现的各种音乐融合出自己。的确。他们的确曾经如此这般。在我到美国之前Allman Brothers就不存在了。车祸使两名乐手身亡,其中包括乐队的灵魂,Duane Allman,并且,像很多美国乐手,其他几个成员的艺术生涯毁于吸毒和酗酒。不过,我仍然可以倾听极富才华的音乐,我仍然可以来看这座中等城市,Macon。你可以想见,这是一种怎样枯涩寂寞的地方。绝大多数的建筑陈旧,没有任何别致的风格,个别新楼显得和城市格格不入。是春天,是樱桃花盛开的时候,整条街,整条街的花,使城市非常美,有了身份。花季只有两个星期。最早录制Allman Brothers唱片的公司关着门,早些年就倒闭了。不过,我仍然可以到他们当年晚上录音之后吃饭的黑人餐馆里来坐一坐。这是一个非常简陋的餐馆。门上有一块退色的可口可乐招牌。这里的食物,又辣,又油,口味很重,是南方黑人的盛餐:面包、炸鸡、炸okra,是一种手指头大小,类似瓠瓜的非洲小瓜,大罐子烤牛肉、煮罗卜、煮黑眼豆、辣兮兮的西红柿酱、炸玉米糕,用南方的甜冰茶通通送下肚肠。好象,天下穷人都爱用油炸,用大甜大辣的重口味,来加强,来崇拜得之不易的食物?这种黑人饭食叫”Soul food”,灵魂之餐,假定吃东西也是一种宗教经验?在这个简陋的小饭馆的一面墙上站满了Allman Brothers。是照片。凝结住永远年轻的乐队成员们,他们搂着小个子的黑人店主。这个小餐馆没有名字。完全没有。只有那个退色的可口可乐招牌,对传奇性的乐队,在家乡做着缅怀的孤独标志。当我走在这个城市的街上,不由不默想这支乐队的自我毁灭。就如这座中型的城市,这是怎样一种生与死之间的方位?这个地方叫Macon,在整个国家的文化里没有这个城市的位置,这个城市没有任何特征,难道,正是这种全无特征,驱使AllmanBrothers创造了如此多样的旋律?难道,也正是这一点,驱使乐队集体自杀?Allman Brothers,同样没有回答我的问题。
