PETER ALLEN : THE BOY FROM OZ by STEPHEN MACLEAN (1996, RANDOM HOUSE AUSTRALIA : ISBN 0-09-183052-4) |
|||
The composer of 'I Go to Rio', 'I Honestly Love You' and 'I Still Call Australia Home' led a classic show business life. Peter Allen's performances at the height
of his career in London, New York and Los Angeles were nothing less than
spectacular, drawing rave reviews, cult crowds and an ever-increasing network
of friends which boasted Bette Midler, Richard Gere and Harry Connick Jnr. With 'talent' stamped all over him and a jump-start, whirl-wind marriage to Liza Minnelli, Allen had a one-way ticket to the Big Time. What could be further from his humble beginnings in country Australia than the legendary performances in his heyday that, as one critic wrote, 'would have scandalised any decade other than the 70s'? Peter Allen - the Boy From Oz is an insider's look at the man - his fame, image, artistry and survival. Stephen MacLean follows the fascinating and complex trajectory of Allen's stardom through interviews with the people who knew and loved him the most. Stephen MacLean is a former music journalist and is now a director and writer. In the course of writing this book, he initiated and created the TV documentary about Peter Allen called The Boy from Oz. He gathered much background for this biography working and living in London, Los Angeles and New York. He is also a consultant for the stage musical about Peter Allen, also entitled The Boy from Oz. * この本は現在http://www.amazon.co.jpで入手可能です。 (上がhardcover版、下がpaperback版の表紙です。) |

I came to songwriting rather late in my career, which had consisted up
to that point of singing other people's songs. I still have no formula
or even a pattern for writing a good song. Some come quickly and when you least expect them and others takes months of hammering words and notes that never dreamed of getting together into something that makes someone else smile and think "that's how I feel, too." Many of the songs were written with friends as collaborators, as two people together can often come up with ideas that neither one would think of separately. The songs deal with life and love today as simply as possible, if things can be simple (which I doubt) and I hope some of them make you smile and think "that's how I feel, too." - Peter Allen |

1988年に発行されたピーター・アレンの楽譜集、156ページで31曲収録されています。ピーター自身ではなくカーリー・サイモンによって歌われた、映画「スイング・シフト」の主題歌<SOMEONE WAITS FOR YOU>や、未だ誰もレコーディングしていないマーシャ・マラメとの1979年の共作曲<IMPATIENT HEART>なども含む嬉しい選曲。巻頭のカラー8ページには1986年2月のピーターの誕生日パーティの写真(リベラッチ、ロバータ・フラックと一緒!)や、1987年のマーヴィン・ハムリッシュ、バーナデット・ピータースとの写真もあって興味深いです。整形後のピーター、なかなかカッコよく撮れてますね〜。(2003年3月13日) | |||
