美國歌壇巨星[蘿貝塔弗萊克]──靈魂/節奏藍調曲──[Reverend Lee/李牧師]
This is a song about a very big, black, strong, Sexy southern baptist minister, Who thinks that hes got his program all together Until he runs up against a lady Who shows him that he aint got it all together. His name is Rev. Doctor Lee Rev. Lee, he went to the water, And he prayed to the lord about ol Satans daughter. It seems in a dream, child, While he lay sleeping, She climbed in his bed, Starts rubbing and weeping. Oh she was twisting and turning, She was beggin and pleading, Loving burning, Panting and breathing, Rev. Lee she said, "oh lord knows I love you child, I will not even place God above you." Rev. Lee he lifted his arms high, Said "heavenly father, take me home to the sky." He said "lord please dont test me, Not down where she touched me oh, My mind is so hazy lord my body is hungry, Oh yeah" God rolled a thunder then a bolt of lighting he seemed to be angry, Oh sure was frightening, The thunder grew louder louder, Dark and conditions just then a voice said "God can not petitioned" Just then the devil emerged from the water And he said in a dry voice "Your God will not barter." Reverend Lee ran screaming from the water, He was hotly persude by old Satans daughter, "Rev. Lee" she said Rev. Lee, Rev. Lee, Oh do it to me, Rev. Lee, Do it to me, Rev. Lee do it to me...."
1937年2月生於美國北卡羅萊納州的黑人巨星蘿貝塔弗萊克(Roberta Flack)出身音樂家庭 本身就是個音樂教師 畢業於音樂學院 擁有專業學位 彈得一手好琴 受過扎實的聲樂訓練 因此對聲音的表現收放自如 1969年 弗萊克與Atlantic唱片簽約 推出首張專輯〔First Take/第一步〕 雖獲得高度評價, 卻沒引起太大迴響
1970年8月, 33歲半的蘿貝塔推出第二張大碟[Chapter Two/第二章](Atlantic出版) 跟上張專輯一樣由Joel Dorn&King Curtis製作 依舊評價優良 首支主打為[Reverend Lee/李牧師]由Gene McDaniels譜寫, 被製作成一首靈魂/節奏藍調曲, 在穩定的節奏間, 弗萊克游刃有餘演繹 只是蘿貝塔當時事業尚未突破, 因此反應冷淡, 並未打入排行榜。
不過1972年弗萊克以[The First Time I saw Your Face/初見君顏]爆紅後, [Chapter Two]也水漲船高 登上Billboard專輯榜#33(副榜-靈魂榜#4) 在美銷售逾100萬張, 拿到金唱片
