...The Stories We Could Tell
在他们发行了“What If…”这张纪念重聚的专辑之后,Mr. Big 结束了长达10 年的各自发展,不过让歌迷等了3 年终于出了第八张专辑“… The Stories We Could Tell “。这会是Mr. Big 对于这25 年来的对于自己的所下的标题。 “过了25 年,我很骄傲对于我们能够做出如此富有旋律,力量,有趣,律动和情绪的专辑。” “我们这张录音有各自的创作和一起玩出来的结果。” Eric Martin 补充了几点, “对我而言这张专辑可以让我们在神气个10 年。有着经典,韵律,有着来自Blues- Rock 的灵魂,以及我们来自70 年的摇滚火花和灵魂的象征。该死,这可是Mr. Big 完成了整张专辑的剪辑,我想不论你是一路陪伴着我们的人还是刚开始认识我们的人,你都该了解我们是怎么成长或我们是怎样的人。” 而”… The Stories We Could Tell ” 的专辑巡回这次很可惜的是Pat Torpey 的病情,虽然他如期的完成了专辑,不过对他来讲现场的表演还是非常的不稳定,因此他将不会负责整场演唱会。不过大家希望他状况允许的话还是能上台打个几首让大家能够欣赏完整的Mr. Big 。(by Roxyrocker) Three years after breaking a decade-long recording hiatus with their reunion album ‘What If…,’ Mr. Big are set to continue rocking with their upcoming eighth LP, ‘…Stories We Could Tell.’ Due Sept. 23, ‘…Stories’ arrives a little over 25 years after the band’s self-titled debut. “This new album rocks,” enthused guitarist Paul Gilbert. “After 25 years, I’m proud that we can make an album that is melodic, powerful, interesting, groovy, and emotional.” “We wrote songs individually and collectively on this new record,” added singer Eric Martin. “To me this is the album that we’ve threatened to make decades ago. A classic, groovin’, blues-rock record with the spirit and spark of our rock and soul idols from the ’70s. Hells to the yeah, it’s a Mr. Big album complete with all the trimmings. I think whether you’ve been with us from the beginning or just starting, you’re going to dig where we are coming from and where we’ve been.”
