专辑介绍：

当他轻轻的拥抱着你，你那羞红的脸颊散发着滚烫的热度，热熏的微微体香诱惑着他，温柔而不可抗拒的贴近你，温度刹那滚溶了彼此，不由得闭上了眼睛，贪婪的享受一份浪漫的空间，而惶然间忘却了眼前温润的耳坠……

《蜜语》，这张专辑是我所看到过的音碟封面中最动人和诱惑的，几乎没有考虑内容，就会被封面的拥抱所吸引，一种浪漫的氛围已然在封面中酝酿了。继而聆听了音乐，更加的快乐产生了，Eric Marienthal的萨克斯热力四射，控制高低音收发自如，旋律盘旋错落，每个音符都可以令人惊讶的吹奏的清晰而到点。Eric Marienthal的吹奏功力之深厚由此可见。

全碟的作品质量和内涵丝毫不逊色于封面的诱惑，这是一张需要反复聆听的碟，如同我写此碟的评论一般，先后修改了二回。初听此碟，熟悉的萨克斯旋律和演奏方式，偶然几首人声配合的演出也是动人却凤毛麟角。旋律非常熟悉，而全碟作品的大体风格基本没有很大变化。这是我初次聆听的看法。然而，再第二，第三次聆听后，我完全推翻了自己的感觉，艺术家的功力在曲中逐步的表现出来，作为萨克斯高音容易，收发是一个极其重要的关键，稍微控制不好，就会高亢出去而产生刺耳的反作用。而Eric Marienthal的萨克斯无论低音高音，都温润的很，衔接和转变都挥洒自如，技巧只能用“潇洒”来形容了。虽然大部分曲目都是标准的Smooth Jazz的风格和旋律，但是，仔细聆听里面的每一个章节都是可圈可点。

艾瑞克．马林托(Eric Marienthal)是当今现代爵士乐坛中少见的全面性萨克斯风名家，原本只在Jazz Club中演出的他，因被Fusion先驱─Chick Corea奇．柯瑞亚发掘，因而使艾瑞克展开了一段崭新的演出生涯！除了跟著乐团展开世界巡迴表演、推出个人专辑外，也在作曲、编曲上发挥创作的才能，全方位的当代爵士演绎在他身上，呈现最为令人击节而讚的感动诗篇！

艾瑞克．马林托於1976年进入百克里音乐学院就读，师事传奇萨克斯风手Joe Viola，并於1995年获百克里杰出校友奖以表彰他在当代音乐的成就。艾瑞克已在超过65个国家演出、发行11张个人专辑，并在无数的专辑、电影、电视节目、及广告配乐中演出。

艾瑞克的音乐生涯开啟於1980年，当时他与纽奥良著名的小号手Al Hurt合作演出。返回洛杉磯后，Eric成为Chick Corea Elektric Band的成员，他一共与乐团录制了六张专辑，其中两张获得葛莱美奖的肯定。Eric曾与Elton John, Barbara Streisand, Billy Joel, Stevie Wonder, Dionne Warwick, Burt Bacharach, Aaron Neville, Johnny Mathis, Dave Grusin, Lee Ritenour, David Benoit, The Rippingtons, The Gordon Goodwin Big Phat Band, Patti Austin, Lou Rawls, David Lee Roth, The Yellowjackets, B.B. King, Ramsey Louis, Patti Labelle, Olivia Newton-John等艺人/乐手合作。

艾瑞克在Peak唱片旗下发行的“Got You Covered”有六首作品都打入National Contemporary Jazz Radio Charts的前十名，其中两首为冠军。“Oasia”专辑则打进Billboard Contemporary Jazz Chart的第五名! 随后不久，艾瑞克即获选为Jazziz杂誌读者投票心目中『年度最佳中音萨克斯风手』之一，另两位获选的中音萨克斯风手是David Sanborn及 Phil Woods。

艾瑞克著有三本教学书，包括有："Comprehensive Jazz Studies & Exercises"、"The Ultimate Jazz Play Along"、及"The Music Of Eric Marienthal"，另有三捲在华纳兄弟发行的教学录影带："Play Sax From Day One"、 "Modern Sax"、及"Tricks Of The Trade"。

Eric Marienthal's CD titled Sweet Talk is definitely something good in the realm of beautiful smooth jazz. Comprised of 11 tracks totaling almost 47 minutes in length, this CD is filled with some sweet highlights that are worth every minute of exposure to its charm.

Eric kicks off the album on alto sax with "Uptown," an outstanding collaboration with Jeff Lorber who contributes his best on keyboards and drum programming. "Secrets" continues the hand-in-glove Marienthal/Lorber collaboration; this song could be imagined on one of Jeff's album's, but Eric takes a mellow approach with his wonderfully melodic touch on romantic jazz sax.

"All I Am," written by Dave Kochanski (formerly of the Rippingtons) is an up-tempo number featuring Kochanski on keyboards and Gene Lake on drum kit; this song will have you toe tapping, and it features Eric playing a duet with Jeff Mironov on guitar. Eric covers the outstanding Stevie Wonder song "Tell Me Something Good" arranged by Marienthal and Lorber. This tune features little known Cassandra Reed delivering a soulful performance on vocals.

The outstanding title track "Sweet Talk" is buried in the middle of the album. It's a lyrical tune that engages the listener on a musical and emotional level. Co-composed by Eric and his son Robert, Scott Breadman came over from the Rippingtons to lend percussive talent while bassist Melvin Lee Davis over-delivers on 7 string contra bass guitar. Eric vocalizes on his alto sax while Davis provides an oh-so-fine scat vocal and Gannin Arnold supplies melodic accents on acoustic and electric guitars.

"Caprichosa" (meaning whimsical, fanciful, impulsive), the longest song on the CD at 5:15, is a ballad written by Brazilian composers Ivan Lins and Fatima Guedes. Lins sings vocals in Portuguese and Marienthal beguiles on soprano sax; it's fairly evident that Eric wanted this to be a memorable standout tune and it is. "Laguna" features the same lineup of musicians as "Caprichosa" but with Marienthal playing an earthy alto sax that brings this smorgasbord of music to its close.

Sweet Talk is an album that deserves to be experienced if you appreciate talented saxophonists; Eric Marienthal delivers something good on this CD produced by Jason Miles (Luther Vandross, Miles Davis).
