Nightbirds
女子R&B的常青树Patti LaBelle领军的女子乐团LaBelle的第四张专辑,也是最成功的一张,专辑中诞生了她们第一首冠军单曲"Lady Marmalade",至今被认为是她们最有代表性的作品。专辑中的Disco/Soul曲风成为了当时的流行色。 这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第272位。 by Rob Bowman The finest of Labelle's original albums, Nightbirds was recorded in New Orleans with funkmeister Allen Toussaint handling the production chores and, one assumes, members of the Meters taking care of the session work. Worth the price of admission for the Bob Crewe-written "Lady Marmalade" alone, the album veers between the strutting New Orleans, horn-laden singles and more mainstream pop material.
