★或许耳朵变的滞顿,亦或许收听状态不佳,总有似曾而识的感觉……只听了第一首,觉得与以前听过的其它轻或迷幻音乐有着相似之处,都着眼于原始与质朴的效果;现代音乐的一切——电子乐器的味道弥漫在这个通道中。若是加上海浪声,则完全可以演绎海岛、椰林、沙滩、落日的境界。但并不是说这张专集不好听,而是这类音乐(本人特崇尚这类音乐)听太多,会使人变的多愁善感;让人太安逸……[冰水星]
★人到了累的时候总想找些方法来放松自己。那么,想象一下,当你躺在摇摇椅上,拿着杯威士忌,看着夕阳西下,身体感受着微微的暖意,口中品尝美酒,耳边传来阵阵的梵音,那是何等的境界。。。。人生不过如此。。[ rickyleung]
★第一次听说“乞力马扎罗山”是在70年代初马季、唐杰忠所说的相声《友谊颂》里,知道它是位于赤道上但山顶终年积雪,感到非常新奇。今天又听到有关它的音乐碟,心里真的很激动。每一首曲子都充满了动感和激情,让人感受到非洲兄弟姐妹那热情奔放的性格,人就象在他们中间一样。听此碟,真的是一种美好的享受![yixiao2056]
★下面是Medwyn Goodall对于此碟的自述:
A true story. An adventure made by everyday people, who not only
wanted to prove something to themselves, but accomplish something positive
and valuable for others by their endeavour.
The album is about one man's inspiration to fulfil his son's
ambition to climb Kilimanjaro. The son had been planning to fulfil his own
ambitions regarding the ascent of the mountain when he was tragically
kidnapped and killed by local African bandits. In memory of his son, the
father then went on to organise a climb, gathering many like-minded people
whose endeavours also raised funds for the 'Children in Crisis' charity.
I found the story to be an inspirational drama that the world
deserved to share, and understand. I set about expressing a musical record
of their journey; the trials, love and faith of those who undertook the
challenge (Including Jeff Stewart of New World Music).
Flavoured throughout with the instruments of Africa, one can sense
the excitement, the wonder, the tension and the final triumph of dreams
that came true. A portion of the sales from the album are also being
contributed to the Children in Crisis appeal
