歌手介绍:
fella超喜欢的一个Nu-Jazz歌手的'05年新作
﹡如丝绒般柔滑的男中音,独具品味地轻触你心--时人杂志﹡这个令人注目、充满感情的低音歌手使人想起年轻的法兰克辛纳屈--纽约邮报﹡天生的中低音与动感的舞台表演,麦可布雷以轻松自在的自信,与他的听众分享他活泼的诠释风味--洛杉矶时报
重新演唱汤姆琼斯、猫王、麦当娜、法兰克辛纳屈、比吉斯、洛史都华等13位不朽巨星经典名曲，他，让这些经典歌曲活了起来，大卫佛斯特麦克布雷，葛莱美奖情歌教父大卫佛斯特为都会男女寻觅已久的新浪漫主义歌手。
跨界风潮走到21世纪，不该只是狭隘的将摇滚、抒情、灵魂、爵士、大乐团、古典声乐等类型音乐作一融合的时尚，而是要以能与生活情境完美契合的听觉为依归，继心灵捕手Josh Groban (乔许)后，葛莱美奖名制作人David Foster (大卫佛斯特)致力于听觉品味的开发有了更上层楼的惊喜发现，一副既能表露歌声情感，又能摆荡歌声情趣的嗓子--Michael Buble(发音为Boo-blay)，这位现年25岁的年轻绅士，来自加拿大温哥华，只要他那天生歌唱家般的嗓子一开，就能创造出一个绝佳的听歌空间，与听者尽情的享受歌声所带来的愉悦感。
自对音乐产生兴趣以来，Buble就情不自禁的迷上Ella Fitzgerald、Sarah Vaughan、Rosemary Clooney这些相当真切的浪漫歌声，当水电工的爷爷为了磨Buble的歌艺，经常以修理水电为交换条件，让Buble能够与镇上的音乐家同台演唱，17岁时，Buble在加拿大的新秀选拔赛中夺冠，除了赢得灌录唱片的机会，并参予‘Red Rock Diner’、‘Swing’等音乐剧的演出，Buble的歌声吸引本身也是老歌迷的加拿大前首相Brian Mulroney的注意，Mulroney将他推荐给华纳音乐集团/143音乐厂牌的高层主管大卫佛斯特，在Mulroney女儿婚礼上高歌一曲"Mack The Knife"后，佛斯特正式将Michael Buble签入旗下。
2001年春季，佛斯特与制作老搭档Humberto Gatica(两人合作过乔许、席琳狄翁、芭芭拉史翠珊的专辑)展开首张同名专辑【Michael Buble】的录制工作，在以重现经典歌曲风华的目标下，完成了一张以听觉拭去类型音乐界线的歌唱作品，从"The Way You Look Tonight"、"For Once In My Life"、"That's All"这些30、40年代的流行名曲宝鉴，到男歌手Paul Anka 59年亚军招牌作"Put Your Head On My Shoulder"、爱尔兰民谣传奇歌手Van Morrison(范莫里森) 70年香醇小品"Moondance"、华丽摇滚名团Queen(皇后合唱团)80年冠军摇滚劲歌"Crazy Little Thing Called Love"、流行巨星George Michael(乔治麦可)88年全美TOP 5摩登爵士恋歌"Kissing A Fool"，这些半世纪以来的流行歌曲在Buble美妙演唱下，完全抹去岁月的尘埃，赋予相当迷人的当代风雅。
值得一提的是The Bee Gees(比吉斯合唱团)老大Barry Gibb特地在71年TOP 4伤心情歌"How Can You Mend A Broken Heart"里合声助阵。专辑推出后随即抢占Billboard热门潜力榜亚军，其中，"For Once In My Life"、"Kissing A Fool"更被选为伊旺麦奎格与芮妮齐薇格主演的爱情喜剧片‘爱情趴趴走’的插曲。
听过Michael Buble的柔情歌声，你是否感觉到一个新的浪漫主义歌手已经诞生了呢？
专辑介绍:
Amazon.com
Michael Buble's assured debut and the tireless year of globe-trotting touring he spent promoting it elevated the 20-something Vancouver native into the first rank of pop crooner revivalists. His sophomore studio follow-up largely turns on the same formula that helped make his considerable vocal prowess so attractive to mainstream audiences, mixing the nigh flawless, if expected Sinatra-channeling ("I've Got You Under My Skin") with more playful and inviting renditions of pop standards like the Gershwin's "A Foggy Day in London Town," "Feeling Good," "Try A Little Tenderness" and Cole Porter's "I've Got You Under My Skin." But it's the eclectic mix of more contemporary material the singer seasons them with -- apt tribute to Buble hero Bobby Darin -- that keeps him walking the narrow tightrope between artistic intrigue (a blues-tinged vamp of Holland-Dozier-Holland's "How Sweet It Is," Leon Russell's lovely "Song For You," with a guest turn by Chris Botti) and the kitsch-laden abyss ("Quando, Quando, Quando"'s Euro-centric duet with Nelly Furtado, a ring-a-ding-fling with the Beatles' "Can't Buy Me Love" that echoes fellow Canadian crooner/rival Matt Dusk's more successful flirtation with Lennon-McCartney). Arranger/producer Tommy LiPuma offers Buble a welcome swinging jazz showcase on "The More I See of You," a bracing respite from the rest of producer David Foster's slick, if typically bloodless MOR production. -- Jerry McCulley
