喜歡Take 6(六人行演唱組)的人可能會(huì)說(shuō),聆聽(tīng)Take 6的音樂(lè)就宛若乘坐一臺(tái)奇妙斑斕的時(shí)光機(jī),把時(shí)光輕巧而通靈地拉回到二十年前。上世紀(jì)九十年代,美國(guó)本土盛行Vocal Group這樣的男聲組合,而這流行的先機(jī)便是1989年,Take 6憑借同名專(zhuān)輯一舉拿下格萊美的最佳靈魂福音團(tuán)體獎(jiǎng)項(xiàng)。而在接下來(lái)的數(shù)十年中,他們又拿下了另外六座格萊美獎(jiǎng)杯。
這數(shù)十年,從樂(lè)評(píng)人的文字中你體察不出Take 6所做的音樂(lè)上的努力和改變,這絕非是從R&B和Soul到Jazz的嘗試這么草率。從純?nèi)寺暤亩嗦暡垦堇[,到有樂(lè)器背景的音樂(lè)混搭,再到各種可能的音樂(lè)流派探索,他們獲得了如潮的好評(píng),這也很好解釋為什么他們會(huì)有七座格萊美獎(jiǎng)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.
