about

アイドル・モーラムの元祖でタイ芸能界に君臨するスーパースター、バーンイェン・ラーケンの最高・珠玉の歌唱12曲を収録した本邦初公式リリース。タイ音楽、ワールドミュージック・ファンのみならず、良質の女性ヴォーカル・ポップスを楽しみたい全ての音楽ファンに捧げる特選作品。

バーンイェン・ラーケンは現在も全盛の女性マス・アイドル・モーラムという存在を築き上げた第一人者で、60年代後半からアンカナーンやホントーン等含む数多の歌手の目標になったスーパースターだ。イサーンの大物プロデューサー、テープパブットに見いだされた彼女は、西欧音楽をいち早く取り入れた都会的なモーラムをひっさげ、ド派手な衣装と妖艶なステージ演出で伝統的なモーラム興行を破壊。この時代を先見した<パッタナー>(※タイ語で発展、開発の意)具合は当時非難もされたが、それ以上に熱狂的に支持され現代の本流になったという影響力は図り知れない。

彼女が支持されたのは見た目の可愛いさ派手さだけでは決してなく、歌の良し悪しが第一だった時代にデビューし、伝説的モーラム歌手の間で芸をもまれ、歌の巧さでも人々を魅了した才色兼備の歌手だったからだ。それもそのはず、モーラムの古典的な徒弟制下で学んだバーンイェンの歌唱力は折り紙付き。今や国を代表する歌手の一人である(日本のタイ・フェス出演経験もあり)。

今回は彼女が最も猛威を振るった70 年代の革新的モーラム&ルークトゥン作品をコンパイルし、ド派手でアップな曲からしっとり歌い込む渋い曲までバランス良く配分。バーンイェンの生来の才能である歌の巧さに焦点を当てた「聴き込める」ベスト盤だ。選曲・解説・装丁はもちろんSoi48!

An exciting collection from pioneering Thai molam idol Banyen Rakkaen, featuring her most thrilling performances from the early to mid-70s, with innovative genre-bending arrangements and production from Thepphabut Satirodchomphu. These tracks, all originally released on 7-inch vinyl, showcase her powerful yet alluring voice, revolutionary yet rooted in tradition. Her exciting performance style was revolutionary and shocked traditionalists, but none could dispute the fact that she was a truly gifted singer, and Theppabut’s visionary production skills added to the feeling of freshness and vitality. The early 1970s saw a growing demand in Thailand for exciting and danceable music, and the recordings compiled in this release filled that demand perfectly. Banyen was one of the great singers of that era who propelled Isan music to nationwide popularity. A true star who in 2013 was designated a living national treasure, Banyen stole hearts with these hard-driving hits, while inspiring a new generation of aspiring singers. Banyen will now steal your heart. Cover art: Shinsuke Takagi (Soi48)
