『アップタウン・スペシャル』(UpTown Special.)は、マーク・ロンソンの4枚目のアルバム。2015年3月15日にRCA Records、Columbia Records、Sony Music Entertainmentより発売された。
概要
[編集]前作「Record Collection」から5年ぶりのアルバム。先行シングル「Uptown Funk」は全米・全英チャート1位を獲得、全米チャートでは歴代2位タイの14週連続1位を記録。このアルバムは全英チャート1位を記録した[1]ものの、全米チャートでは5位にとどまる[3]など、シングルと比べると売り上げは振るわなかった。
Mark Ronsonはこのアルバムについて「聴いて良い気分になれるアルバムにしたかったんだ。自分が聴きたいアルバムに。パーティーアルバムなんだけど、その中に知性がある。素晴らしいシンガーを招いて、ビートがあって、ノリノリな曲が多い。だけど考えさせられる歌詞だったり、良い意味で期待を裏切るものがあるから、そこから知性を感じてほしいね」[10][11]。
