网友点评

在录制《The Blues (2)》时,Duke Ellington突发奇想,让乐队在录音过程中突然停电。黑暗中,他指挥乐队即兴发挥,演奏出一段充满激情的即兴爵士乐。这段意外的停电成了歌曲中最具感染力的部分,也成为乐迷津津乐道的幕后趣闻。事后,Ellington笑称:“音乐的魅力,有时连电灯泡都挡不住。”

歌词

[05:55.00]I Ain't Got Nothing But The Blues - Duke Ellington & His Orchestra

[05:55.00]Ain't got the change of a nickel

[05:55.00]Ain't got no bounce in my shoes

[05:55.00]Ain't go no fancy to tickle

[05:55.00]I ain't got nothing but the blues

[05:55.00]Ain't got no coffee that's perking

[05:55.00]Ain't got no winnings to lose

[05:55.00]Ain't got a dream that is working

[05:55.00]I ain't got nothing but the blues

[05:55.00]When trumpets flare up

[05:55.00]I keep my hair up

[05:55.00]I just can't make it come down

[05:55.00]Believe me peppie

[05:55.00]I can't get happy

[05:55.00]Since my ever loving baby left town

[05:55.00]Ain't got no rest in my slumbers

[05:55.00]Ain't got no feelings to bruise

[05:55.00]Ain't got no telephone numbers

[05:55.00]I ain't got nothing but the blues
