电吉他界的第一怪才Buckethead在今年的年初正式发行了他个人的第35张录音室专辑Electric Sea,此前City Hall Records称这是Big B在十年前发行的Electric Tears专辑的延续。的确,Electric Sea又是Buckethead所创作的有一张如水般剔透宁静的抒情之作,一张完全可以和CLOMA媲美的作品。此次Buckethead还翻弹了古典大师巴赫以及阿尔弗雷多·卡塔拉尼的三首作品。而整张专辑的最后一首歌则是致敬缅怀伟大的流行乐天王迈克杰克逊。这首歌是在这位巨星陨落之后的几天内创作出的,并在2008年的时候免费发行。
Electric Sea is the thirty-fifth studio album by avant-garde guitarist Buckethead. It is the sequel to his 2002 release “Electric Tears”.
The album was announced on December 20, 2011 via City Hall Records, and contains 11 tracks. The album was scheduled to be released on February 21, 2012 but fans started receiving their copies more than a month early.
Track #2, “Beyond the Knowing” is a re-working of “What Kind of Nation”, and is probably recognised as the oldest song on the album, as Buckethead’s earliest known performances of it date back to 2001 onstage with Guns N' Roses.
