 Grateful Dead简介 Origin Palo Alto, California, U.S. Genres Rock Years active 1965–1995 The Grateful Dead was an American rock band formed in Palo Alto, California, in 1965.[1][2] Known for their eclectic style that fused elements of rock, blues, jazz, folk, country, bluegrass, rock and roll, gospel, reggae, and world music with psychedelia,[3][4] the band is famous for improvisation during their live performances,[5][6] and for their devoted fan base, known as "Deadheads". According to the musician and writer Lenny Kaye, the music of the Grateful Dead "touches on ground that most other groups don't even know exists."[7] For the range of their influences and the structure of their live performances, the Grateful Dead are considered "the pioneering godfathers of the jam band world".[8] The Grateful Dead was founded in the San Francisco Bay Area during the rise of the counterculture of the 1960s.[9][10][11][12] The band's founding members were Jerry Garcia (lead guitar and vocals), Bob Weir (rhythm guitar and vocals), Ron "Pigpen" McKernan (keyboards, harmonica, and vocals), Phil Lesh (bass guitar and vocals), and Bill Kreutzmann (drums).[13] Members of the Grateful Dead, originally known as the Warlocks, had played together in various Bay Area ensembles, including the traditional jug band Mother McCree's Uptown Jug Champions. Lesh was the last member to join the Warlocks before they changed their name to Grateful Dead, replacing Dana Morgan Jr., who had played bass for a few gigs. Drummer Mickey Hart and non-performing lyricist Robert Hunter joined in 1967. With the exception of McKernan, who died in 1973, and Hart, who left the band from 1971 to 1974, the core of the band stayed together for its entire 30-year history.[14] Other official members of the band included Tom Constanten (keyboards from 1968 to 1970), John Perry Barlow (non-performing lyricist from 1971 to 1995),[15] Keith Godchaux (keyboards and occasional vocals from 1971 to 1979), Donna Godchaux (vocals from 1972 to 1979), Brent Mydland (keyboards and vocals from 19 中文 你要问迷幻摇滚谁开的先河?那一定是Grateful Dead,1965年乐队成立于加州,以融合了摇滚、民谣、乡村、爵士、蓝草、布鲁斯、福音和迷幻摇滚元素的折衷风格而闻名,他们的音乐触及了大多数其他乐队甚至不知道存在的基础,这些不同的影响被提炼成一个多元化、迷幻的整体。他们的现场演奏以长时间的器乐演奏和现场即兴为特点,这使感恩而死乐队成为“即兴乐队界的先驱教父'',“感恩而死”这个名字是 从一本字典里选出来的,字典里的定义是“死者的灵魂或天使,对那些出于慈善而为他们安排葬礼的人表示感激”。感恩而死是60s体量最大的摇滚乐队之一,他们的音乐并不属于流行摇滚、布鲁斯、民谣摇滚或乡村西部等既定类别。他们的个别曲目可以归入这些风格标签之一,但总体而言,他们的音乐借鉴了所有这些流派,而且更常见的是融合了其中几种,“他们不是自己领域中最优秀的,但他们是唯一做自己领域的人。”感恩至死乐队经常(无论是在表演还是在录音中)留下探索性、空间感十足的音景空间。他们更愿意凭空想象,也不愿意照本宣科,他们更像是摇滚乐里的炼金术士。乐队在95年主音吉他手&灵魂人物加西亚去世之后也随之解散。同年乐队发行了第一张同名专辑,被称为用布鲁斯演唱的迷幻摇滚。1968年因与签约公司关系不好而使得第二张专辑《Anthem of the Sun》并不出色。1967年到1969年之间乐队进行了巡演并推出了第三张专辑《Aoxomoxoa》成绩依然不理想。1970年推出了现场双专辑《Live/Dead》,《Workingman’s Dead》及《American Beauty》均获得了成功,其中后两张专辑是乐队历史上销量最大的专辑。在此后乐队及乐队成员都出了许多专辑,并一直进行着巡演。在这期间的专辑《In the Dark》被认为是最好的作品,并为乐队赢得了第一首热门歌曲“Touch of Gery”。1995年Jerry Garcia去世,乐队宣布解散。The Grateful Dead系统的把自由自在的一种音乐形式引入了摇滚乐,他们的音乐表明了他们在不断的发展自己的音乐理想。
