Max Rebo Band 马克斯·里博乐队

电影



A diverse ensemble of lively and talented alien musicians, the Max Rebo Band was in the employ of Jabba the Hutt shortly before the gruesome crime lord's fiery death. Fronting the group was a floppy-eared elephantine keyboard player named Max Rebo. Providing vocals was the pairing of Sy Snootles and Joh Yowza. The remainder of the band's core was the pipeplayer Droopy McCool.
马克斯·里博乐队由精力充沛、才华横溢的各色异族音乐家组成。他们曾被赫特人贾巴雇佣，但没过多久，这个恶贯满盈的匪首就在大火中被杀死了。乐队的领队是键盘手马克斯·里博，他耳朵松垂，长得像大象一样。唱歌的两个人是西·斯努特尔斯和乔·尤扎。乐队的另一名核心是号手德鲁皮·麦库尔。

While those four formed the core of the Max Rebo Band, the full stage performance tripled the group's size. Filling out the horns were Barquin D'an, the Bith, and the Rodian Doda Bodonawieedo. Rappertunie harmonized on his peculiar instrument while Ak-rev and Umpass-stay kept the rhythm with their drums. The beautiful and graceful Lyn Me, Rystáll and Greeata doubled as back-up vocals and dancers.
虽然这四个人组成了马克斯·里博乐队的核心，但完整的舞台表演人数是这个小组的三倍。吹喇叭的是比思人巴尔奎恩·德安和罗迪亚人多达·博多纳维多。雷珀图尼演奏其独特的乐器，而阿克-雷夫和昂帕斯-斯泰用鼓声保持节奏。美丽优雅的琳·米、赖丝特尔和格里娅塔兼任后备歌手和舞女。

衍生宇宙



The Max Rebo Band was a loose ensemble of musicians cobbled from the remains of a band fronted by Evar Orbus. When Orbus, a multi-tentacled Letaki manager and bandleader, was killed in a scuffle with disgruntled Bith musicians, Max took over the group in his name.
马克斯·里博乐队是一支松散的乐队，其成员大都来自以前埃瓦·奥布斯的乐队。奥布斯是勒塔基人，长有很多触手。当这位经理兼乐队领队在与一群恼火的比思人音乐家打架时被杀后，马克斯以自己的名字接管了乐队。

The Max Rebo Band came to Tatooine and secured a lifetime contract with Jabba the Hutt. Though a talented musician and gourmand, Max was hardly a shrewd negotiator. The food-obsessed Ortolan traded away the band's future in exchange for a lifetime supply of food.
马克斯·里博乐队来到塔图因，与赫特人贾巴签署了一份终身合约。马克斯是才华横溢的音乐家和美食家，但不是精明的谈判家。这名禁不住食物诱惑的奥尔托人为一辈子享用美食而出卖了乐队的未来。

In Jabba's employ, the band swelled from a small core group to 12 members. After Jabba's death, the Max Rebo Band completely dissolved. The bulk of the group did travel to the Great Pit of Carkoon, but they escaped the fiery explosion that consumed the Hutt's sail barge.
被贾巴雇佣期间，这支乐队从一小支核心组增加到12名成员。贾巴死后，马克斯·里博乐队完全解散。乐队的主体确实去了卡孔大坑，但他们在吞噬赫特人风帆游艇的猛烈爆炸中逃了出来。

幕后



In the original release of Return of the Jedi, the Max Rebo Band was a trio consisting of Max Rebo, Sy Snootles and Droopy McCool. They originally performed a pop song called "Lapti Nek," which contained such lyrics as:
在《绝地归来》的最初发行版中，马克斯·里博乐队由马克斯·里博、西·斯努特尔斯和德鲁皮·麦库尔三人组成。他们原本表演一首叫《Lapti Nek》的流行歌曲，歌词如下：

Ab queck zenick fesi
Jup col im in na hiz jal, ooh.
Wa toc peg qui dos gee pif, aah.
Joc jarraz bas deg zorze zot.
Jer wih tuster mo vey
qui neb be og ezen on
wok lapti nek seb not van
goc jarraz bas deg zorze zot.

Lapti nek, rat a ran wim joct co jappi qaff,
lapti nek, kiv ba ha top wep jex pi va bep,
lapti nek rat a ran wim joct co jeppi quaff.

The alien song was even released as a 45 RPM single by PolyGram Records, with an extended five-minute Special Extended Dance Club Mix and a seven-minute B-side Dub Mix. There was even a music video produced for the song.
这首异族歌曲甚至被宝丽金唱片公司制成了45转/每分钟的单曲发售，其中加了五分钟的特别加长舞曲混音和七分钟的B面Dub混音。他们甚至为这首歌制作了音乐视频。

When Return of the Jedi was re-released as a Special Edition in 1997, the "Lapti Nek" number was replaced with a less dated piece of music, called "Jedi Rocks" in production. The blues-inspired piece showcased a number of new musicians and dancers that expanded the original trio to an ensemble of 12.
当《绝地归来》的特别版在1997年上映时，《Lapti Nek》被一段较新的音乐代替。它在制作时被称为“绝地摇滚”。这段以蓝调为灵感的音乐场景展示了许多新音乐家和舞女，把原来的三人组扩大到12人。
