好時代廣告時間 (1)























我看舊雜誌,連廣告汁都撈埋,一小句宣傳文案都有趣,很反映時代,雜誌名叫《好時代》,已說明一切,現在還有流行音樂雜誌嗎?

1987年5月封面是鄺美雲,她由寶記第一張唱片《再坐一會》,到最後一張《心動》,形象都沒大變化,很難猜到這時什麼時期,翻開裡面才知那期她在宣傳《未曾深愛已無情》,內頁介紹寫明她出生日期1962年12月24日,當時她24歲。

《大坑渠》是否一部經典電視劇?我睇唔係,經典台的「我們的梁朝偉」也不入選,但當年出過原聲大碟,還有同名二胡協奏曲,算大製作。梁朝偉黐鬚扮虯髯客劣評如潮,唱歌亦勁難聽,和呂方合唱主題曲,高下立見,他和文佩玲原來也合唱過,幾多人記得 (聽過)?























歌手宣傳活動之一是disco tour,那時張張碟都有跳舞歌,條橋行得通,林憶蓮有《獨行少女》,羅文有《乜都拗》,郭小霖有《不規則》,首首跳得一餐,Future Disco開張,他們包了四晚開騷。























Future Disco在哪裡?美麗華酒店地庫,開張日期是1987年5月22日,連落兩頁廣告,幾揼本。























吳國敬和文佩玲一樣出身自新秀,而且早一屆,85年參賽落選 (冠軍是杜德偉),87年出處男EP,主打歌《玩火》hit過下,因而被稱為香港Bon Jovi,廣告中一臉怒火,聽眾buy唔buy是另一回事,後來他都要剪短髮唱冧歌。























《半斤八兩》以前叫做草根心聲,到了87年,改稱為「城巿潮流」,譬如《做人要識Do》、《皆因你冇得彈》,口語化到咁,我當時見到歌名都打冷震,第二plug《封佢做偶像》唱衰基佬,仲俾電台禁播,許冠傑創作已疲態畢露。























另一間disco是芝加哥,草蜢有一次做訪問時說,這是他們未入行前的聚腳點,廣告寫住「Lounge - 歡迎酒廊嘉賓上台客串」,即是史前的卡拉OK,蘇志威就是喜歡Chicago可以唱歌,蔡一智蔡一傑則喜歡去Canton跳舞。























《大運河》和《玩火》推出時都只有唱片盒帶,1987年的新唱片有沒有CD同時推出?部份有,例如Suzanne Vega的《Solitude Standing》,但其他大多以精選碟形式推出,當時特價$80,貴$40的黑膠碟一倍,所以抵聽精選較易推銷。算起來,20年來CD價錢不升反跌,是抗通漲能力最勁的商品,可是愈賣愈少。

>>>《封佢做偶像》唱衰基佬<<<

Are you sure? Look at the last section of the lyrics, it's actually a criticism of mainstream attitude towards what is considered as "normal". Given that the HK mainstream consists of followers, instead of leaders, the lyrics is social commentary.

To me, the lyrics are still very homophobia....

佢搽到滿身香,指甲又吋半長,
動作扭擰態度似個姑娘,喜歡對鏡猛自我欣賞,
佢成日挽住化妝箱,啐到塊面似隻無常,
服裝怪異格調夠晒東洋,一身機佬扮相。

人叫佢做基佬祥,基佬祥,
佢總冇怕異相,由得你唱,
抵封佢做偶像 AH HA!抵封佢做偶像 AH HA!

佢同個密友叫 Paul Leung,鍾意結伴晒太陽,
泳褲重幼過跳艷舞姑娘,甫士最正志在博影相,
佢成日買定兩包薑,走去嘆午夜場,
習慣貢夜店,活躍歡場,睇邊個就上。

佢話無謂替我緊張,只因冇你正常,
我自細就有著這種傾向,喜歡你未會欣賞,
人在世就快會幾張,貶眼就要散場,
就要放盡快步過一場,駛乜驚你唱。

"大運河"當年係重頭劇. 最記得吳啟華扮隋煬帝楊廣, 奸到七情上面. 係御花園撕爛陳秀珠衫袖果幕, 對當年係小學生既我黎講, 簡直係大開色戒. 最抵死係撕爛衫袖後立即出credit, 要等足一日先可以睇落去...其實套劇梁朝偉搶唔到戲, 淨睇鮑方同李香琴先後被吳啟華害死, 已經精彩到極.

'Good Times' began publication in the 70s with news of Wynners, Sam Hui, Chelsia Chan, Teresa Caripo and Rowena Cortes (Lo Wan Na). Please note in the 70s the young local music scene was dominated by English Songs. In the 80s, it focus on Japanese music which is attributed to the success of Seiko Matsuda, Akina Nakamori and Matchy. I have issues of Good Times in the 70s and 80s as well. I wonder what is the 'last' issue of Good Times. Akina and Seiko are gold records recipents in the 80s, thanks largely to this magazine

If you have the early issues (pre-82, before JPOP "truly" took off in Hong Kong) of "Good Time" magazine, you would notice a frequent contributor was Pato Leung. Pato, 梁柏濤, of course, was the manager of Wynners. Wynners was slightly ahead of my time but my cousin was a big fan of them and she told me that the genesis of "Good Time" magazine was really a Wynners' fan magazine

Speaking of contributor, another frequent contributor in the JPOP scene for the early "Good Time" magazine was Pamela Wong. I remember during the mid-80s there was a DJ in RTHK2 named Pamela. Together with 夏妙然, they hosted a weekly JPop program. For a while I was wondering if she is that Pamela Wong.

80年代響RTHK2主持日本音樂節目既叫歐潔靈,佢仲幫亞視主持過《日本勁歌週記》添架。夏妙然係響歐潔靈唔做(89年尾)之後先接手。至於Pamela Wong就應該唔係DJ黎喎~
