Carpenters / A Song For You (US, A&M Records, SP 3511) <June 22, 1972> (SIDE 1) A+M SP 3531-M1 MR △17035(1) (SIDE 2) A+M SP 3532-M1 MR △17035-×(1) 【以下 Wikipediaより】 『ア・ソング・フォー・ユー』(A Song for You)はカーペンターズの4枚目のアルバムである。1972年6月13日に発売された。 リチャード・カーペンターによると、『ア・ソング・フォー・ユー』はタイトル・チューンがオープニングとエンディングとなるコンセプト・アルバムの形式を狙ったという。キャッシュボックスの1972年度におけるトップ100アルバムにおいて『ア・ソング・フォー・ユー』は26位になった。日本発売当時(AML 135)のアルバムの邦題は『トップ・オブ・ザ・ワールド』で、その後原題通りに『ア・ソング・フォー・ユー』、さらにレコードの再発時(GP 254)には『愛は夢の中に』("I Won't Last a Day Without You"の邦題)となり、短い間にアルバムの邦題が何度も変わった。現在は原題の通りに呼ばれている]。 このアルバムはカーペンターズのオリジナルアルバムの中で最良のものであると一般的には見なされている。6曲がA面として国際的にシングルカットされた。「ハーティング・イーチ・アザー」、「小さな愛の願い」、「愛にさよならを」、「トップ・オブ・ザ・ワールド」、「愛は夢の中に」、「動物と子供たちの詩」である。 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUMAmI5YcBQ Such a feeling's coming over me There is wonder in most everything I see Not a cloud in the sky, got the sun in my eyes And I won't be surprised if it's a dream Everything I want the world to be Is now coming true especially for me And the reason is clear, it's because you are here You're the nearest thing to heaven that I've seen I'm on the top of the world looking down on creation And the only explanation I can find Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around Your love's put me at the top of the world Something in the wind has learned my name And it's telling me that things are not the same In the leaves on the trees and the touch of the breeze There's a pleasing sense of happiness for me There is only one wish on my mind When this day is through I hope that I will find That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me All I need will be mine if you are here I'm on the top of the world looking down on creation And the only explanation I can find Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around Your love's put me at the top of the world I'm on the top of the world looking down on creation And the only explanation I can find Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around Your love's put me at the top of the world

Herbie Hancock / Speak Like A Child (US, Blue Note, BST 84279) <Summer 1968> (Side 1) BNST 84279 A VAN GELDER K (Side 2) BNST 84279 B VAN GELDER K Recorded at Van Gelder Studio, Englewood Cliffs, March 6 and 9, 1968. Herbie Hancock — piano Ron Carter — bass Mickey Roker — drums Jerry Dodgion — alto flute Thad Jones — flugelhorn Peter Phillips — bass trombone Cover Photo by David Bythewood "Speak Like a Child" is the sixth album by American jazz pianist Herbie Hancock, recorded and released by Blue Note Records in 1968. Featuring Hancock's arrangements for an unusual front line of alto flute, bass trombone and flugelhorn, the album was described by critic Nat Hentoff as an "impressive further stage in the evolution of Herbie Hancock as writer and player", characterised by a "singular quality of incisive, searching lyricism." None of the wind players perform solos on any song. The cover photograph was taken by David Bythewood, an acquaintance of Hancock. The photo depicts Hancock in silhouette kissing his then-girlfriend, Gigi Meixner. Speak Like A Child (Remastered 2004) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhKBbsTspJA
