A change is gonna come (1964)
无疑是他最著名的歌。启发于民权运动并受Bob Dylan的Blowin in the wind激励,它的身份自豪感,被打压与坚持,展现脆弱与最终平静的乐观大概是我听过最universal的表达了。浓浓的福音元素与民族传统和时代以及他更厚重的感情结合,是他音乐生涯的圆满总结。
“I was born by the river, in a little tent/ Oh, just like the river I’ve been running, ever since” “It’s been too hard living/ But I'm afraid to die/ ‘Cause I don't know what's up there/ Beyond the sky” “there been times that I thought/ I couldn't last for long/But now I think I'm able, to carry on”
Shake (1964)
其实A change is gonna come发行时是B面,而录制更晚的这首A面曲强劲的节奏更像是一个新的开始。虽然相比一年后Otis Redding的翻唱他的原版显得有点礼貌得像没放开(应该不是他做不到,毕竟一年前的现场够狂野了), 但从他早期听到这里就令人耳目一新了。
