In Tori Amos: Piece by Piece, the singer herself takes readers beyond the mere facts, explaining the specifics of her creative process—her songs go from ideas and melodies to recordings and passionately performed concert pieces. 這是一本私密的, 大開眼界得傳記作品. 探索一位當代搖滾界最獨特也最受歡迎之一的表演者, 她的生活. 從她廣受好評的1992年首張個人專輯Little Earthquakes, 到近期的賣座唱片 Scarlet's Walk, Tori Amos一直是近代音樂的一股美妙動力, 而且受到在這個唱片工業中最為專注之一的歌迷群支持. 在Tori Amos: Piece by Piece這本書當中, 這位歌手親自帶領讀者超越單純事實, 來解釋她創作過程的細節- 看她的歌曲如何從想法和曲調開始到錄音過程以及充滿熱力的現場表演過程. Written with acclaimed music journalist Ann Powers, Tori Amos: Piece by Piece is a firsthand account of the most intricate and intimate details of Amos’s life as both a private individual and a very public performing musician. In passionate and informative prose, Amos explains how her songs come to her and how she records and then performs them for audiences everywhere, all the while connecting with listeners across the world and maintaining her own family life (which includes raising a young daughter). But it is also much more, a verbal collage made by two strong female voices – and the voices of those closest to Amos—that calls upon genealogy, myth, and folklore to express Amos’s unique and fascinating personal history. In short, we see the pieces that make up – as Amos herself puts it—“the woman we call Tori.” With photos taken especially for this book by the photographer Loren Haynes, Tori Amos: Piece by Piece is a rare treat for both Tori listeners and newcomers alike, a look into the heart and mind of an extraordinary musician. 和備受崇敬的知名音樂記者Ann Powers合著, Tori Amos: Piece by Piece這本書提供了最複雜且最私密的第一手資訊, 來介紹Amos同時身為一個需要隱私權的個人以及經常公開表演的音樂家的生活. 充滿熱情且提供資訊的文句中, Amos談及她的歌曲如何拜訪她, 以及她如何錄音並且接著為各地的聽眾歌迷表演-- 並且藉由表演連結她分布全世界各角落的聽眾,並維持她的家庭生活(包括撫養年幼女兒). 但意義還不只如此-- 這樣一本由兩個強力的女性聲音所構成的文句拼貼, 尤其是最貼近 Amos的聲音-- 溯及到家系譜, 神話, 民俗信仰的部分-- 表達了Amos本身獨特且迷人的個人歷史. 簡而言之, 我們看到, 套Amos本身的話: 構成"一個叫做Tori的女人"的片段. 書中並附上由攝影師Loren Haynes專為本書特別攝製的照片, Tori Amos: Piece by Piece是一份給Tori的歌迷, 或是想認識Tori Amos的人非常珍貴的獻禮, 來深入探索一個獨特音樂家的心靈與意志. -- Mr. St. John I wanna eat your babies two billions of babies i can swallow them all -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 218.166.151.4
