莱昂纳尔·里奇(Lionel Richie),1949年6月20日出生在亚拉巴马州的Tuskegee,他可谓是80年代美国摇滚乐坛最耀眼的歌星之一,其成就在80年代有重要贡献。

成立乐队:莱昂纳尔·里奇是在Tuskegee学院的校园里成长起来的,60年代中期,他在那里建立了一支颇为成功的R&B乐队。1968年,他成为Commodores(海军司令合唱团)的主唱手兼萨克斯手,这支由他和自家兄弟合组的乐队在以后的数年里取得了辉煌的成绩。Richie的《Can't Slow Down》专辑在世界各地的总销售量仅次于Michael Jackson的《Thriller》;他担任了Kenny Rogers 最畅销单曲《Lady》的制作;制作并与 Diana Ross 合唱了畅销单曲《Endless Love》;Richie还是两次奥斯卡电影歌曲得主及誉满全球的歌曲《We Are The World》、《Say you say me》的共同作曲者。众多的音乐奖殊荣以及在音乐排行榜上创下的骄人成绩都证明了Richie不愧为80年代乐坛无可比拟的闪亮巨星。

音乐风格:在Commodores时代,Richie就已是这个组合许多风行一时的佳作的创作者兼演唱者,他尤其擅长一些具有浪漫情调、易于领悟的歌曲,就好像Easy、Three Times A Lady、Still之类的作品。这些软调歌曲正是Richie的拿手好戏,不论是忧伤感怀的怨调,或是爱味浓郁的情歌,经由这位黑人歌手独特的蓝调处理,听来格外令人心动不已。在为乡村歌手Kenny Rogers制作专辑Share With You之后,Richie又将乡村歌曲的精华融入了自己的创作之中,从而使自己的风格得以超越纯灵魂乐的领域。在单曲AlI Niaht Long (All Niaht)中更是将灵魂舞曲用强烈的韵律表达出来。而在Running With The Night中,Richie更是不断拓展曲风,请当时Toto吉它手演奏带有爵士风格的摇滚吉它间奏,取得了不错的效果。之后,Richie又推出了Dancing On The Ceiling,绚烂多姿的包装、恣情放任的曲调、闻乐起舞的快感,令人仿如置身里约热内卢的嘉年华会中。这位不断突破现状,力求多元新颖风格的成功艺人,永不会自满于岁月的荣耀,他继续着自己作为一个音乐人的不断尝试。Lionel Richie 是真正“情歌王子”,在奢华的80年代,Lionel Richie的歌声丝毫没有一点夸张的华丽之气,款款深情的演唱一直是他对歌迷的真正礼物。

1981年,37岁的美国乐坛黑人天后Diana Ross与创作才子Lionel Richie为当时青少年电影〔Endless Love〕演唱同名主题曲。虽电影票房/评价皆差(六项金酸莓提名),不过原声带跟主题曲倒十分畅销。《Endless Love无尽的爱》是首旋律美妙的抒情歌曲,在优美钢琴声的衬托下,Diana与Lionel轻柔的唱出这首动人的旋律。登上美国流行榜9周冠军、7周黑人榜冠军、3周成人抒情榜冠军,销售突破200万张,成为白金单曲;英国榜则是#7。隔年为两人得到两座美国音乐奖、金球奖最佳电影歌曲、格莱美奖年度唱片与最佳流行组合提名、奥斯卡最佳电影歌曲提名,是Diana Ross与Lionel Richie音乐生涯中最成功的单曲。

莱诺李奇,1949年6月20日出生于亚拉巴马州。大学时代,在同学的怂恿下,他加入了一支合唱团,为新生献艺。有趣的是,日后以作曲才华备受推崇的他,当时竟然连乐谱都不会看呢!据说,他之所以会受到邀请,是因为他经常带萨克斯风到学校去,所以发起合唱团的同学就问他有没有兴趣一起玩,他坦白的表示,自己其实并不是真的会吹奏萨克斯风,带着乐器上学,只是觉得那样很酷,不过他倒是很愿意试试看。为了争一口气,他开始透过函授课程,从基础乐理学起,逐渐有了越来越多的心得。后来,学校里另外一支合唱团因为部分团员毕业离校而人手不足,要求与他的合唱团合并,并且定名为「海军准将」(Commodores)。到了1968年的夏天,他们已经是蒙哥马利一带最受欢迎的乐队了。在一次偶然的机会下,他们得到了为「杰克森五人组」(Jackson 5)演唱会暖场的工作,前后有三年左右,也连带着获得了Motown唱片的合约。进入唱片公司后,由于老板偶然间发现他经常自己哼哼唱唱的一些旋律都相当不错,建议他把那些曲子录制成带子,引发了他进一步学习作曲的兴趣。

早期的「海军准将」,作品以节奏强劲的「放克」与灵魂乐为主,随着莱诺李奇的作曲技巧越来越成熟,他们逐渐转型,以莱诺李奇谱写并主唱的抒情歌谣曲风靡了歌坛,陆续拥有了包括Easy、Brick House、Three Times a Lady、Still和Oh No等等名满天下的畅销曲,其中的Three Times a Lady和Still,更曾经名列全美排行的冠军。当然,这些都是他创作生涯中最重要的作品。

莱诺李奇富有变化的才华,引起了肯尼罗杰斯(Kenny Rogers)的高度兴趣,特别邀请他出马谱写、并且制作Lady,获得了爆炸性的成功,肯尼罗杰斯并且把自己的经纪人介绍给他,引发了他尝试独立的念头。在进一步以电影「无尽的爱」同名主题曲Endless Love造成更大的轰动后,他终于在1982年正式宣告退出「海军准将」,开始单飞,推出首张个人同名专辑Lionel Richie,果然立刻就以Truly夺下了他个人生涯的第一个冠军。接着,他在1983年推出第二张个人专辑Can't Slow Down,获得了更大的成功,专辑总共只有八首歌曲,却有五首打进排行前十名,其中更包括两首冠军,不但勇夺该年度「最佳专辑」格莱美奖,更以超过一千万张的销售总数,在二十世纪美国最畅销一百张唱片中,名列第五十六。而来自这张专辑的代表作,我们就可以听到Hello、Penny Lover、All Night Long和Stuck on You。由于从「海军准将」到「无尽的爱」、以及单飞之后的头两张专辑精彩的表现,莱诺李奇的才华受到了举世的公认,他在1985年春天应邀与流行音乐天王迈克尔杰克逊(Michael Jackson)合作,共同谱写了欧美流行艺人们连手为非洲难民们募款的We Are the World,轰动了国际。接着,他又应邀为电影「飞越苏联」(White Nights)谱写一首同名的主题曲。他花了两个星期的时间,发现自己无法写出那样的一首歌,不过倒是谱成了另外一首他觉得可能很适合该片剧情的歌曲,那也就是Say You, Say Me。导演听过之后,也非常喜欢,因此决定放在片子结尾。结果,这首歌不但勇夺冠军,更囊括了奥斯卡与金球奖双料的「最佳电影歌曲」。由于歌曲使用权的关系,Say You,Say Me当年并没有收录在「飞越苏联」的原声带专辑中,而出现于莱诺李奇1986年的第三张个人专辑Dancing on the Ceiling里面。这张专辑,虽然再度获得很高的评价,可惜销售的成绩却很明显的下滑,而他也就此进入蛰伏的情况,只有在1992年推出过一张精选集Back to Front,然后直到1996年,才发表阔别十年的Louder Than Words专辑,虽然仍旧有些抒情歌谣曲,但是并没有什么突破的成就,而他不晓得误听了谁的建议,居然也跟随流行,唱起饶舌来,结果是吃力不讨好。

1998年,他力图振作,发表了Time专辑,尽管获得不少喝彩,销售情况却没有多少好转。2001年春天,他再度出击,推出Renaissance,其中的抒情歌谣曲Angel,只在英国拿到第十八名,不过却有了在欧洲超过一百万张的专辑销售数字,而这个时候的他,显然已经以欧洲为主要市场了。莱昂纳尔在2006年发行了专辑Coming Home,并挤进了英国的专辑排行榜前五名。入行三十年,拥有全球超过一亿张唱片的销售纪录,十座全美音乐奖、五座格莱美奖、二十首Top10畅销单曲的莱诺李奇,仍然热爱歌唱。他喜欢在舞台上的感觉,现场听众的回馈,可以使他整个人「疯狂」起来。在莱诺李奇三十年的创作生涯中,他曾经尝试过许多不同的内容,但是他最在行的,显然还是情歌,因为,世间所有的话题都可能过时,唯有爱情是亘古不变的,不会因为时间与文化的不同而有所差异,不论你是年轻人、还是「老人家」,谁都无法抗拒爱的诉求2009年60岁的他又推出了新专辑just go。just go是张通篇深情款款的专辑,歌曲整体风格统一而不沉闷,即使它稍显俗套,还是受到了各界好评。虽然这不可能再产生让Richie名垂千古的经典作品,但也绝对不至于砸了他的金漆招牌。

莱昂纳尔·里奇是真正的歌者,他在用生命歌唱,也因此感动着每一个行走在尘世中的人们。他的音乐不似摇滚乐的喧嚣,没有半分的伤感与颓废,只是深情地缓缓唱着,却在一瞬间击中人内心最柔软的地方。他的音乐充满浪漫博大的情调,无论是忧伤抒怀的怨调还是爱意浓郁的情歌,都充满了深入灵魂的力量。他的音乐大多表现一种深沉博大之爱,这使他的歌曲非常耐人回味,每一次聆听都会感受到一种新的味道 。

莱昂纳尔·里奇凭着深情的嗓音留下了许多优秀的曲目。他用音乐唱出心中的爱,也用唯美的旋律以爱之名将浪漫与温情四处传递。莱昂纳尔·里奇的情歌不仅吟唱着永恒的爱情,同样也传递着天下一家的大爱。更加难得的是,在奢华音乐风张扬的二十世纪80年代,莱昂纳尔·里奇从未沾染一丝夸张的华丽之气,质朴深情的演唱始终是他的主格调,加上其独特的蓝调处理和易于领悟的曲风,让他的每一首歌曲都格外动人。

用音乐冲破低谷桎梏,以信心拥抱黎明曙光。

聆听旅途上的声音
