Lords of Dogtown

昨天介紹了一部衝浪紀錄電影Sprout,今天介紹關於另一種極限運動滑板的電影Lords of Dogtown,不過提到Lords of Dogtown之前,要先提到另一部與其相關的滑板紀錄片Dogtown & Z-boys。
1970年代初,在美國加州洛杉磯附近,66號公路的終點有一個被稱作為Dogtown的地方。最初是以歐洲感覺的藝術文化為主題,並有一個名為POP的港口樂園。但隨著盈虧持續惡化,原先的樂園一一倒閉,在一次嚴重的乾旱導致全城缺水,所有游泳池變成了乾池子,而這些骯髒的池子,為沖浪男孩們帶來新的靈感,他們把海上沖浪的技術帶上陸地,在泳池壁模擬沖浪,於是U臺滑板(Vertical)誕生了,之後在全美大受歡迎,最後成為以衝浪與滑板聞名的Dogtown。而為何是叫做Z-boys?因為一切開始於一家名為Zephyr Shop的革命性衝浪店。
Dogtown & Z-boys就是關於充滿傳奇性Zephyr Skate Team的紀錄片。Z-boys的其中一名成員Stacy Peralta將當時拍攝的影片剪輯成為這部紀錄片並於2001年時做公開放映,記得當時Vans還為Dogtown & Z-boys發行了一雙聯名的sk8,在當時的街頭流行界可說是相當轟動。如今,Dogtown & Z-boys的故事被國際大片商買下,改拍成為Lords of Dogtown這部劇情片。當初帶領革命的滑板精神似乎已經被金錢至上的商業氣息所取代。但若不是Sony這個國際大片商,大概也不會有Lords of Dogtown這種All-Star級的電影原聲帶曲目。
1. Death Or Glory - Social Distortion
2. Hair Of The Dog - Nazareth
3. I Just Want To Make Love To You - Foghat
4. Fox On The Run - Sweet
5. Motor City Madhouse - Ted Nugent
6. Turn To Stone - Joe Walsh
7. One Way Out - The Allman Brothers Band
8. Fire - Jimi Hendrix
9. Space Truckin' - Deep Purple
10. Success - Iggy Pop
11. Suffragette City - David Bowie
12. Iron Man - Black Sabbath
13. Nervous Breakdown - Rise Against
14. 20th Century Boy - T. Rex
15. Maggie May - Rod Stewart
16. Wish You Were Here - Sparklehorse
由於電影背景是在70年代,所以都以70年代著名的音樂為主,Jimi Hendrix, Deep Purple, Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Black Sabbath跟T. Rex,這些不管當時或現在都為人熟知的名字,成為Lords of Dogtown電影的一部份。我最喜歡的是Sparklehorse翻唱Pink Floyd的名曲Wish You Were Here,歌曲沒有太複雜的和弦變化跟編曲結構,歌詞沒有太多艱難單字或抽象意境,但就是這麼賺人熱淚,不管何時聽都有一股不知名的力量,讓淚腺崩潰、眼淚絕堤。
Sparklehorse / Wish You Were Here (Pink Floyd Cover)
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
Did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in a war,
For a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.
