音响迷们都很熟悉的sara k.终于踏出美国，在德国stockfisch公司录制了新专辑。唱片风格一如以往，以sara k.的特殊四弦吉他与歌声为主体，加上许多优美的伴奏乐器（其中多首歌曲中加入了同为stockfisch公司艺人的chris jones的吉他演奏），一点点民谣、一点点爵士，保证任何人都会爱上这种轻松隽永、不追随流行的自我风格！ 新专辑的歌曲都是sara k.自己撰写，只有第一首曲子是她每天在前往录音室的路上时都会碰到的一位手风琴街头艺人所演奏，因为他每天只要一看到sara k.出现，就会演奏这首歌曲，所以他们就在街头录下了这段音乐。 虽然录音设备与人员全数更换，但是在这里要告诉大家：新录音的音质仍然是一等一的好！sara k.的歌声充满了情感与空气感、吉他清脆而有弹性，背景噪音非常低，小音量下的动态是个考验。录音采用二十八位元的类比数位转换器、nagra d录音座、并以b&w nautilus 801进行鉴听，这也是所有stockfisch唱片都采用的高标准录音设备。From the time she first performed in front of an audience when she was 17 years old, singer/songwriter Sara K. knew she wanted to live her life making music. She followed her dream and stayed true to her desire, despite the fact that demand for acoustic solo performers was falling off as the end of the '70s approached. Several avenues remained open to her, including fronting her own band, studio work, and backing country music artists, which she did in her hometown of Dallas, TX. She also found work locally singing jingles. From her childhood years on, music played an important part in her life. Her mother belonged to a choir at church, while her father sang bass as part of a barbershop quartet. She first took up the guitar at the age of 15, although her instrument wasn't the standard one on which most youths begin. She started with a basic flamenco guitar and added four strings meant for a bass. The resulting hybrid didn't produce notes as low as those normally produced by a bass, yet they were definitely lower than those made by a guitar. After the early years in Texas, she took her band, Sara K. and the Boys Without Sleep, to Los Angeles and New Mexico. Beginning in 1973, she led the band for about ten years and she followed that up by spending more than two years on tour with country singerGary Nunn. The experience was a good one, but she longed to concentrate on crafting songs and performing her own compositions. She settled down in Santa Fe to work on her songs, putting together an album that eventually became Gypsy Alley and was released by Mesa/Bluemoon Records in 1982. The New Mexico Music Industry Coalition honored the release with an award for Best Album. Chesky Records signed her to a contract, and Sara K. went on to release four well-received albums: Hobo, Tell Me I'm Not Dreamin', Play on Words, and Closer Than They Appear. The singer/songwriter toured Germany in 1997 with Hui Cox, an arranger and guitar player. That same year, she also contributed to the soundtrack for The Postman. Two years later, No Cover was issued featuring Chuck Mangione on one of the tracks. The live album was recorded in New York City inside St. Peter's Episcopal Church, making the most of the soaring interior's dynamite acoustics. What Matters followed in 2001.
