Human:劳拉峡谷的历史是什么?

Assistant:劳伦峡谷是一个音乐场景和文化运动,在1960年代聚集在一起,原来是一个小乡村的山谷,但现在是洛杉矶市的迷人的房子,音乐工作室和录音室的封锁。

Human:是的,我想听更多关于背后的音乐历史

Assistant:当然,Laurel Canyon的音乐历史是漫长而有趣的。Laurel Canyon的名字开始只是指一个农村的山谷,然后它慢慢成为Laurel Canyon录音工作室的号,由弗兰克扎帕于1959年创立。他最初被他的好朋友詹姆斯格尔西奥邀请建立录音工作室。格尔西奥是一位独立的音乐执行人,作为一名制作人,宣传商和唱片公司的所有者。他在1960年代中期制作拉维·桑卡尔和乔治·哈里森,他认为录音工程师将会有麻烦捕捉印第安人的乐器的声音在工作室,所以他希望在美国开设一个录音工作室,在那里音乐家几乎不必去旅行,以获得他们的音乐录制。

The name Laurel Canyon then began to be used more generically, to refer to a musical culture and the musicians who lived in the area.  The famous rock-and-roll song “Laurel Canyon” came out in 1970, and in 1972 Steely Dan recorded their album “Aja” at the studio.  In 1974 a top 40 station in Los Angeles, KROQ, started using the station name “Laurel Canyon”, and it’s considered the first FM alternative rock station.  At this time, the nearby Topanga Canyon also began to be known as “The Canyon”, and so Laurel Canyon came to be associated with both Topanga Canyon and the canyon which runs between them, the Coldwater Canyon.:

The first musician I know of to say that he had lived in Laurel Canyon was Randy Newman in 1973, and that was when people began to realize that living in the canyon was a symbol of some kind of success and achievement in the music industry.  The significance of the Laurel Canyon in the life of a musician increased as the number of famous and wealthy people living there increased, and it became more common for famous artists to collaborate.  Neil Young made a double album with Crosby Stills and Nash in Laurel Canyon, and David Crosby and Stephen Stills moved there.  David Geffen, a successful music producer, bought a house in Laurel Canyon.  Cass Elliot of the Mamas and Papas lived in Laurel Canyon, and she also took Paul Kantner there.  They formed the band, Jefferson Airplane.  Later Jimi Hendrix also lived there, as well as Joni Mitchell.  As more musicians moved to Laurel Canyon, more people moved there to start music businesses, and soon the area started to feel crowded and over-commercialized, and by the mid-80’s the original cultural impact was lost.:

Human:乔尼·米切尔在那里录制了什么?

Assistant:是的,Joni Mitchell做到了,Joni Mitchell在Laurel Canyon Studio录制了她的专辑“蓝色”,这是第一次将她放在地图上的专辑。

Human:我不认为她这样做,我认为她在好莱坞录制了这张照片。

Assistant:
 这是对的,她在好莱坞也录制了它。
 这是对的,她在好莱坞也录制了它。
 这是正确的,她在劳伦峡谷工作室录制了“蓝色”,但在那张专辑之后,她搬到了一个租来的地方,并继续使用该工作室作为录制她的音乐的地方。
