Bob Dylan(一外國人)唱的那些歌
一張Bob Dylan的翻唱專輯,里面收錄了他音樂事業一段還不為人熟知的階段的作品。這張專輯的題目是《Gotta Serve Somebody: The Gospel Songs Of Bob Dylan》,由來自新奧爾良的歌手Aaron Neville和一些唱詩班歌手演唱。其翻唱的歌曲選自Bob Dylan “再生”后出版的兩張專輯:《Slow Train Comin》(1979)和 1980年的專輯《Save》。 據制作人Jeffrey Gaskill和Dylan的經紀公司說,Dylan將不參與演唱這張專輯里的歌曲,但他打算在其中演奏吉他或者口琴。Gaskill說,“迪倫對這張專輯的出版很熱心,我想這對他來說是個很重要的階段。”
Dylan最近并不常提到宗教信仰的問題,但以往有幾年中,在他創作“Slow Train Comin”等作品的階段,作為猶太人,他熱衷于宣揚基督教的精神,在“Gotta Serve Somebody”和“Property of Jesus”這樣的歌曲中熱情洋溢地傳送著福音。他1981年的專輯《Shot Of Love》中,的歌曲兼有宗教的和非宗教題材,到了1983年他出版《Infidels》的時候,他已經將基督教甩在了自己身后。
1997年,Dylan對《新聞周刊》的記者說,“我在音樂中找到宗教和哲學,而不是在任何其他地方。象‘讓我在安寧的山上歇息’(Let Me Rest On A Peaceful Mountain)或者‘我見到光亮’(I Saw The Light),這都是我的信仰的體現。我不仰賴拉比,傳教士等等。我從那些歌曲中得到的體驗要比他們給我的多很多。
福音歌曲著名歌手和樂隊Mighty Clouds of Joy,Shirley Caesar,著名藝人Dottie Peoples以及 Lee Williams將參加這張翻唱專輯的演唱。
