Charles Lloyd
Born:
The critical consensus is that Charles Lloyd has never sounded better. As he enters his 76th year, the depth of his expression reflects a lifetime of experience. Lloyd has a legendary history in the music world, and could certainly be in a position to slow down and rest on his laurels. But looking back has never been of great interest to this tender warrior; this seeker of beauty and truth. “Go forward,” is his motto, as he keeps shifting to a higher, well calibrated gear. His concerts and recordings are events of pristine beauty and elegance, full of intensely felt emotion and passion that touches deep inside the heart

Charles Lloyd and Steve Tibbetts: Inner Directed and Independent
by Doug Collette
Perhaps not surprisingly, independent thinkers are invariably self-motivated and both those virtues apply to saxophonist Charles Lloyd and guitarist Steve Tibbetts. But while the former has roamed far and wide in a series of musical adventures involving the disparate likes of Keith Jarrett and the Beach Boys, the latter has chosen to go deep rather than ...

by Marek J. Śmietański
Episode 119th of Jazz Crumbs wraps up the October releases. After the European chapter in episode 118th, we travel to the rest of the world.

And 2025 seemed a good year for guitarists; they were often a driving force on many of these recordings and an important element in the mood and atmosphere of the songs. There's Anthony Pirog on Skullcap's Snakes of ...
Jack Kenny's Best Jazz Albums Of 2025
by Jack Kenny
A year is an arbitrary time. The list is chronological by how they came to me. The albums that still stand out are Bone Bells (Pyroclastic Records) by Sylvie Courvoisier and Mary Halvorson and the sheer professional expertise of Jed Levy Faces and Places (Self Produced). Both albums, in their different ways, exude creativity and joy. ...

Julius Gawlik, Conference Call & Camila Nebbia
by Maurice Hogue
German saxophonist Julius Gawlik has captured my attention whenever I've heard him play, particularly of late with Jim Black's The Schrimps. His brilliance has taken him to the NDR Big Band at only 23 years old, and now he's released a very fine debut It's All In Your Head. More saxophone of note comes from the ...
