艺人介绍

喜欢Take 6(六人行演唱组)的人可能会说,聆听Take 6的音乐就宛若乘坐一台奇妙斑斓的时光机,把时光轻巧而通灵地拉回到二十年前。上世纪九十年代,美国本土盛行Vocal Group这样的男声组合,而这流行的先机便是1989年,Take 6凭借同名专辑一举拿下格莱美的最佳灵魂福音团体奖项。而在接下来的数十年中,他们又拿下了另外六座格莱美奖杯。

这数十年,从乐评人的文字中你体察不出Take 6所做的音乐上的努力和改变,这绝非是从R&B和Soul到Jazz的尝试这么草率。从纯人声的多声部演绎,到有乐器背景的音乐混搭,再到各种可能的音乐流派探索,他们获得了如潮的好评,这也很好解释为什么他们会有七座格莱美奖杯。

Take 6 is both a throwback to an earlier, more genteel era of American music and a precursor for a number of black male pop groups of the '90s (most notably Boyz II Men). Also they has recorded Christmas carols, toured with Al Jarreau, appeared on Quincy Jones' all-star Back on the Block album, and on Join the Band (1994) they used instrumental backing for the first time.

However, 1996's Brothers album indicated a turn toward commercial, sound-alike soul music that threatened to rob Take 6 of its unique identity. So Cool followed in 1998, with We Wish You a Merry Christmas appearing a year later. The new millennium was a time of rejuvenation. Beautiful World, released in April 2002, showcased an incredible instrumentation and Take 6's new musical approach.
