 专辑介绍:
 这套8CD合辑是奇克·韦伯乐队1934-1941年在Decca公司的录音全集,包括1938年奇克·韦伯离世后,由艾拉·费茨杰拉德担任乐队领班,直至乐队解散的全部录音。
 
 奇克·韦伯(Chick Webb)的音乐生涯是短暂而灿烂的。他是爵士乐历史上一位最出色的鼓手,他的演奏无懈可击。奇克·韦伯唯一的不幸就是他的坏运气,他去世的时候,只有三十岁。生前,他的演奏在爵土乐坛是无人能及的,杰出的才华使他短暂的一生光彩照人。听到他令人振奋的演奏,人们几乎想象不到他是一位残疾人。他因为脊椎结核病造成了天生的驼背,然而这丝毫未能影响他成为爵士乐坛最具才气和大师气质的鼓手。
 
 1924年,奇克·韦伯只身来到纽约时,他只有十五岁。两年之后,韦伯就建立起自己的乐队。1927年,韦伯灌制了自己的首张唱片。他早期的经历充满了艰辛,人们曾经对于这位其貌不扬的鼓手表示过怀疑,他们不相信韦伯这样一位鼓手能够撑起一支乐队。在他之前的各种爵士乐队中,钢琴或者小号的演奏几乎成为了无可争议的主角,鼓手只是节奏部的一位配角而已。奇克·韦伯以其非凡的演奏,改变了人们的固有观念。他和同时代的著名的鼓手基屈·克鲁帕一道,为爵士乐鼓手开创了成功的先河。奇克·韦伯用自己成功的实践证明了鼓手一样可以成为乐队的明星。
 
 二十年代初,奇克·韦伯经历了一段艰难的奋斗时期。他在一系列的音乐会中,显示出自己超乎寻常的能力。他凭借自己的实力,战胜了一个又一个的同行,成为了公认的佼佼者,奠定了自已在音乐界的地位。从此之后,他开始定期为萨伏伊唱片公司录音。从1933年起,奇克·韦伯的乐队开始定期灌制唱片。在三十年代时,韦伯还有过一支更为出色的乐队,其成员除了上述的几位之外,还包括了贝斯手约翰·科尔比,未来的明星中音萨克斯手Louis Jordan。
 
 1935年是韦伯人生的转折点,也是奇克·韦伯乐队事业发展的转折点。在这一年里,乐队吸收了一位重要人物,这就是著名的爵士乐女歌手艾拉·费茨杰拉德(Ella Fitzgerald)。在此之前,韦伯的乐队主要是以其出色的演奏为特色,艾拉·费茨杰拉德的加入丰富了乐队音乐,很快这位著名女歌手的演唱成为了乐队一个最为重要的吸引听众的特色。可以说,艾拉·费茨杰拉德这位爵土乐坛最著名女歌手的成功,在很大程度上是因为奇克·韦伯慧眼识才。他大胆地使用了这位有极高天赋但是初出茅庐的女歌手,显示出他对于音乐流行趋势极强的洞察力。
 
 1938年,命运多舛的奇克·韦伯不幸柒上了重病,在即将迎来自己的巨大成功之际,奇克·韦伯离开了人世,命运再次捉弄了这位天才的音乐家。在1939年6月他去世之时,数以百万计的乐迷都表示了深切的哀悼。在他即将辞别人世之际,奇克·韦伯深情地望了望周围的伙伴,说出了他最后一句话;“对不起,我不得不去了。”的确,他还有许多工作未能完成,他对人世还有无限的依恋。如果他能够有更多的时间,他一定会为爵士乐爱好者奉献出更多、更美好的音乐。
 
 在奇克·韦伯离世之后,乐队中最重要的人物,歌手艾拉·费茨杰拉德成了乐队的领袖人物。在奇克·韦伯离世后,乐队仍然维持了两年的时间才宣告解散。然而,奇克·韦伯的名字永远留在了喜爱他的人们的心中。
