今天收到Josh Rouse官网发来的的email，3月发行新专辑El Turista。我对他上张Country Mouse, City House没什么特别的感觉，但抱着试试看的心情下了El Turista (@douban)来一听，感觉非常惊艳：有点Jazz（爵士）和Bossa Nova（巴萨诺瓦）甚至有点Samba（桑巴）和cha-cha（恰恰）。 Josh Rouse现在基本上在西班牙定居了，远离故乡美国这个伤心地并结婚生子。音乐理念也有了很大的变化，现场风格也是小型演出为主，非常欧化。

这张专辑让人感受到阵阵的拉丁暖风，是严冬初春不可少的一味调剂。好几首歌里都可以听到和She’s Spanish, I’m American里一样熟悉的背景女声——应该正是他的西班牙老婆。

Throughout El Turista, simple, Spanish-influenced street rhythms unfurl into epic versions of Guaraldi-like jazz numbers, resulting in yet another career defining touchstone and a genre-blending album that is as sophisticated as it is infectious. (from email newsletter)

Q magazine（英国最大音乐杂志）给了★★★★星，乐评如下：

Midwest meets the Med in songwriter’s global journey.

Love Has taken Josh Rouse a long way from his Nebraska roots: as subtly indicated by the title of his 2007 EP She’s Spanish, I’m American, he has now settled in Valencia with his Spanish wife and their child. El Turista is the result of this bilingual existence, a glorious cross-cultural hopscotch game that lands on Spanish lyrics, Brazilian samba and Cuban beats. Covers of “the Louis Armstrong of Cuba” Bola de Nieve shimmy alongside Rouse originals Lemon Tree and the exuberant Valencia, a love song to his adopted town full of the heartfelt joy that leaves this record spinning like a compass needle.
