Chuck Prophet
正如其名，芩克·普罗菲特像八十年代至九十年代吉他演奏的先知一样，将其超凡的创作才能与巨大的乐器演奏技巧完美的结合到了一起。
上世纪的六十年代芩克·普罗菲特（Chuck Prophet）出生在南加里佛尼亚，他首次进入公众视线是出任当时佩斯利地下运动（Paisley Underground movement）倡导先锋乐团“绿中红”（Green on Red）乐队的主音吉他。在乐队1992年解散之后，芩克便开始专心于他的吉他独奏音乐生涯。芩克更加热爱传统的音乐风格，在他的音乐中你可以听到鲍勃· 迪伦式（Bob Dylan）的歌词，同时在吉他旋律和技巧上你又可以感觉到埃里克·克莱普顿（Eric Clapton）和凯斯·理查德（Keith Richards）这些大师的影子，而他的声音与汤姆·佩蒂（Tom Petty）又有着相似之处。由于芩克精湛的吉他技艺，众多的艺人和乐队都邀请他加入其音乐制作当中，其间较为知名的有：传奇艺人Bob Neuwirth，Hubert Huncke以及著名的吉他手Calvin Russell。而与老朋友Jim Dickinson合作录制的现场专辑“A Thousand Footprints in the Sand"则获得了巨大的好评。
在1997年专辑“Homemade Blood”之中，芩克再次展现了其做为一名吉他手，歌曲创作者及歌者的综合才能。而三年后出品的叫好专辑“The Hurting Business”则显现了芩克依然的宝刀不老。

Chuck Prophet hit the road in the '80s with the psychedelic-roots band Green on Red straight out of high school and never looked back. In addition to working as a singer/songwriter, guitarist, bandleader, and musical collaborator with artists diverse as Cake, Kim Carnes and Solomon Burke, Prophet's deepening solo catalog of self-produced "sideways" roots rock has steadily becoming his calling card.
Born in the Southern California suburb of Whittier, the San Francisco-based Prophet made his debut as a solo artist in 1990 with Brother Aldo (Fire Records); one U.K. music paper called its collision of lo-fi and country "As close to the genuine article as a white boy can get." Developing his style over the course of seven albums, including Balinese Dancer (1993) and Feast of Hearts (1995), Prophet hit his stride with his gritty meditation on suburbia, Homemade Blood (Hightone, 1997) followed by the studio tweaked and poetic The Hurting Business (Hightone, 1998) and the streetwise epic No Other Love (New West, 2002) which sparked a radio hit, "Summertime Thing" (the title track was covered by Heart). His 2004 release, Age of Miracles (New West), marries vintage with state-of-the art studio technique while consistently never compromising its raw, roots foundation. Soap and Water (Yep Roc, 2007) barges through rock's barriers with a helping of swamp and hip-hop. Between albums, Kelly Willis and Boz Scaggs, among others, have laid down versions of Prophet's songs while his guitar tracks show up on recordings from Warren Zevon and Lucinda Williams to Jewel. In 2005-2006, Green on Red reunited for a series of shows. Prophet continues to perform as a solo artist and with his band, the Mission Express, featuring his wife, Stephanie Finch, on keyboards and vocals.
