艺人介绍
by Tom RolandOne of country musics most innovative artists during the late 70s and early 80s, Eddie Rabbitt has made contributions to the format that have often gone overlooked. Especially in songs like the R&B-inflected Suspicions and the rockin Someone Could Lose a Heart Tonight, Rabbitt challenged the commonly recognized creative boundaries of the idiom. Hailing from Brooklyn and New Jersey, Rabbitt moved to Nashville in 1968. Though it took a few years to get his recording career off the ground, he paid the rent through songwriting, authoring Elvis Presleys Kentucky Rain and Ronnie Milsaps Pure Love. Eddie continued to write professionally until 1975, when he signed with Elektra Records newly established country division. Initially, Rabbitt made recordings that were decidedly country — mostly uptempo material, like Two Dollars in the Jukebox and Drinkin My Baby (Off My Mind) — with thick, inimitable harmonies, most of them overdubbed by Rabbitt himself. However, with the assistance of his then-associates David Malloy and Even Stevens, Rabbitts records became progressively progressive. In 1976, he started a string of Top Ten hits that ran uninterrupted until 1989. During that time, he had 16 number one singles, including Drinkin My Baby (Off My Mind) (1976), You Dont Love Me Anymore (1978), Every Which Way But Loose (1979), Drivin My Life Away (1980), I Love a Rainy Night (1980), Step by Step (1980), and You and I, a 1982 duet with Crystal Gayle. In the late 80s he returned to more traditional sounds, as his country shuffle On Second Thought demonstrates, but it was too late for Rabbitt to return to the top of the country charts, since he had already been supplanted by a newer generation of artists. The terminal kidney ailment of his son also factored in his decision to only sporadically record and perform during the 90s. In 1997, Rabbitt was diagnosed with lung cancer; the disease claimed his life on May 7, 1998. The LP From the Heart was issued posthumously.
