八十年代最具代表性的女声演唱经典之作
八十年代集诗人、小说家、词曲作者、歌手等多重身分的现代艺术家Leonard Cohen说:「珍妮佛华恩丝的歌声就像「加州阳光」一样,她善于去体会一首歌曲的神髓,然后用声音表达出来,让听者感染到歌曲中丰沛的生命力,因此她可说是一名最佳的「声音表演者」。一九七九年她为电影《诺玛蕾》(Norma Rae)演唱一首“It goes like it goes",为她赢得奥斯卡最佳电影歌曲奖,而在乐坛大放异彩,八二年她和Joe Cocker再为电影《军官与绅士》合唱“Up Where We Belong",一九八七年和Bill Medley为《热舞十七》合唱“(I’ve had) the Time of My life",不但分别拿下了流行榜上冠军曲,更再度拿下奥斯卡最佳歌曲奖即葛莱美奖的最佳二重唱奖,华恩丝旋即成了红遍全球的女歌手。
One of the most-loved singers of our time has returned with a modern-day masterpiece. Jennifer Warnes is back with a brand-new album called Another Time, Another Place, on BMG. The new album reunites Warnes with her co-producer and great friend and collaborator Roscoe Beck, the long-time musical director and bass player for Leonard Cohen. It's the same partnership that made the landmark 1987 album Famous Blue Raincoat. With glorious production and performances, and of course, impeccable vocals, Another Time, Another Place features the cream of the crop of songwriters including Eddie Vedder (‘Just Breathe’), Mark Knopfler (‘Why Worry’), John Legend, Warren Haynes, Derek Trucks and more. Joining Warnes are brilliant musicians and friends such as Dean Parks (Steely Dan, Bob Dylan), pedal steel king Greg Liesz (k.d. lang, Eric Clapton) and drummer Vinnie Colaiuta (Frank Zappa, Sting). Jennifer Warnes has always been known as someone who makes beautifully crafted records with an open heart, unafraid to show emotion and love through her work. It's the perfect time for Another Time, Another Place.
