MTV很好心的帮RHCP建议新的吉他手...(泣) 翻译了一下，应该很多名词有翻错，还请不吝指教 <(_ _)> 虽然新闻说Josh Klinghoffer会来递补吉他手的位置， 可是官方还是什麽也没说。 基本上神秘的新吉他手应该已经找好了，毕竟明年1月有一场表演， 总不会吉他的部份放录音带吧...- - http://newsroom.mtv.com/2009/12/17/red-hot-chili-peppers-guitarist/ Red Hot Chili Peppers Lose Another Guitarist, But Here Are 10 Replacement Options by Kyle Anderson in Music Like the drummer's chair in Spinal Tap, the guitar player position in the Red Hot Chili Peppers has always been a mysterious black hole. The band has been together since 1983 and have morphed from snot-nosed skate punks to a full-scale stadium rock monster. They've been on hiatus, but recently got back together to talk about new material. Except they are short one member, as guitarist John Frusciante announced that he has left the band. It's the second time Frusciante has left the band (the first time was in 1992 at the height of the band's Blood Sugar Sex Magik-era popularity). 就跟Spinal Tap的鼓手一样，RHCP的吉他手位置总是像个神秘的黑洞。 自1983年成军以来，从青涩的庞克小鬼头转变成为舞台上的摇滚巨星。 他们本来在长休中，最近再度聚首筹备新专辑。 只是这次他们少了一位成员，吉他手John Frusciante宣布他已经离团。 这是Frusciante第二次的离团。 (第一次发生「Blood Sugar Sex Magik」大受欢迎的1992年。) All told, the Red Hot Chili Peppers have had seven total guitarists in their history. Original axeman Hillel Slovak died of an overdose in 1988 and was followed by DeWayne McKnight, Frusciante, Arik Marshall, Dave Navarro and Frusciante again. (Guitarist Jack Sherman actually recorded the parts for the band's self-titled first album because Slovak was signed to another label with another band at the time.) RHCP总共经历了7位吉他手。 开团元老Hillel Slovak於1988年因为药物过量过世， 之後则由DeWayne McKnight、Frusciante、Arik Marshall、 Dave Navarro、又一次Frusciante顶替他的位置。 (吉他手Jack Sherman则曾协助录制过该团的第一张同名专辑， 因为当时Slovak加入了另一个乐团。) They're a three-legged dog once again, but there are plenty of options available. Playing in the Chili Peppers is difficult, as you have to shift from funk to hard rock to punk on a dime, but these 10 axemen could fit the bill nicely. 如今他们又再次四缺一，但还是有许多选择的。 要在RHCP中生存不容易，因为你必须在放克、重摇滚与庞克风间转换自如。 不过这里举出10位相信能够适任的乐手。 Dave Navarro: He's already replaced Frusciante once and already knows a lot of the songs. Plus, the one album the band cut with Navarro (1995's One Hot Minute) is a tremendously underrated album. It's phenomenally dark and has a least two songs ("Warped" and "My Friends") that deserve to be recognized as modern classics. 他曾经取代过Frusciante一次，所以对歌曲也很熟悉。 加上，他参与录制的1995年的「One Hot Minute」是一张被大大低估的专辑。 该专辑十分黑暗，并且至少有两首歌"Warped"与"My Friends"， 足以被认定为当代经典。 Captain Kirk Douglas: He's got a sweet gig with the Roots on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon," but listen to how easily he shifts from metal riffs to smooth reggae and jazz. Douglas is a remarkable player who can be everything to everyone. 他曾在"Late Night with Jimmy Fallon"节目上，与Roots有过一场不错的演出。 听他从金属的短促反覆变换到圆润的雷鬼与爵士。 Douglas是出色的乐手，他像个变色龙班变换自如。 Robin Finck: Since Nine Inch Nails is no longer a traveling outfit, Finck needs some work. The guy knows how to deliver big, intricate sounds and is comfortable playing in front of the massive crowds that the Chili Peppers are used to. 自从Nine Inch Nails成员不再免洗後，Finck需要有点事做。 他懂得如何处理大场面与嘈杂的环境，并且能在庞大观众前怡然自得地表演， 而这正是RHCP时常经历的情况。 Vernon Reid: Living Colour only recently got back together, but Reid is probably the dream guitarist for the Peppers, as he is able to bring together metal, funk and everything in between with every strum. Living Colour最近才合体，但Reid对RHCP而言绝对是梦幻吉他手， 他可以在弹奏之间将金属、放克或是其他东西融合一体。 Joe Satriani: The virtuoso axeman is comfortable with all styles, and he could really sink his teeth into the group's latter-day material (especially the tunes on the solo-happy Stadium Arcadium). Then again, it would probably be difficult to get him away from Chickenfoot. 这位技艺超群的乐手什麽曲风都难不倒他， 而他绝对会全力融入RHCP的後期作品，尤其是「Stadium Arcadium」的旋律 只是，要把他从Chickenfoot拖出来是有点难度。 Nigel Pulsford: The former lead guitarist of Bush was always underrated, capable of delivering big riffs and squiggly psychedelia. His previous work doesn't suggest that he's capable of getting down with the funkier corners of RHCP's catalog, but you can't judge a book by its cover. 这位Bush的前任首席吉他手总是被低估， 不管是短促反覆或是随意的迷幻都在他掌握中。 虽然他之前的作品看不出来他可以掌握RHCP的放克曲风， 但总是不能妄下断语。 Nick Zinner: Nobody does a better job experimenting with sounds and styles than the guitarist for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, who could easily help shape the next RHCP movement. 没有人比来自Yeah Yeah Yeahs的吉他手更适合这个工作了， 他可以轻松为RHCP打造下一步。 Eric Erlandson: The former Hole guitarist always knew how to bring the noise with ninja-like precision. Since Courtney Love probably won't ever get her old band back together, it would be a great gig for Erlandson. Hole的前任吉他手永远懂得如何在粗矿中带着细腻。 既然Courtney Love也没法把旧成员找回来， 这绝对会是Erlandson的一大机会。 Rocky George: The Fishbone guitarist also has a background the splits the difference between heavy rock, ska and punk, which would make him an ideal fit for the band. The Fishbone的吉他手也有过重摇、斯卡与庞克的背景， 这让他相当适合RHCP。 Kim Thayil: The former Soundgarden guitarist would bring a heavier, more psychedelic edge than even Navarro, but his big sound (and fantastic beard) have been sorely missed on the rock scene. Soundgarden的前任吉他手，他将比Navarro更加迷幻， 但他的嗓音(跟他的漂亮胡子)，实在跟摇滚不太搭。 --
