Charles Lloyd: Confluence

Read "Charles Lloyd: Confluence" reviewed by Russ Musto

by Russ Musto

“It's all part of a continuum, Charles Lloyd says about the music of his new trio with Zakir Hussain and Eric Harland. “Sangam is a confluence, a meeting--it's a supercharged atmosphere when we get together. We play in the now, looking for the One. Zakir, Eric and I may come from different backgrounds, but it is ...

by Budd Kopman

Those who have been following Charles Lloyd on ECM--as well as plenty of other people--have a real reason to rejoice. Sangam, Lloyd's first live recording for the label, is extremely well recorded and features a new configuration.

Charles Lloyd: Sangam

Read "Sangam" reviewed by Matt Cibula

by Matt Cibula

At this juncture in his life and career, Charles Lloyd has become untouchable. His tone is so full of depth that it sounds good to nearly everyone who hears it; his scope is so broad that he can never be accused of coasting, yet he remains fundamentally listenable, so no one can throw labels like “obscurantist" ...

Musicians at saxophonist Charles Lloyd's level of artistry rarely, if ever, have a bad night. Some times out are better than others, though, and based on this live recording, May 23, 2004 was clearly one of those evenings. Which Way is East (ECM, 2004), a series of intimate duets Lloyd recorded with Billy Higgins a few ...

by Ollie Bivens

The many fans of Charles Lloyd will revel in Jumping the Creek, one of the best since his “comeback" in the late '80s. Of the members of his new band, pianist Geri Allen has played the longest with the saxophonist (about five years). However, the group plays so well together that is easy to assume that ...

Charles Lloyd Quartet: Jumping the Creek

Read "Jumping the Creek" reviewed by Eric J. Iannelli

by Eric J. Iannelli

On the cover of Charles Lloyd's latest album, a solitary figure walks with some deliberation toward a vast expanse of sea. A series of lines converge at his right, appearing to box him in like one of Francis Bacon's popes. And so before even getting so far as inserting the disc in the player, the listener ...

by John Kelman

While saxophonist Charles Lloyd made some memorable ensemble discs with the late, great drummer Billy Higgins--'99's Voice in the Night, '00's The Water is Wide and '01's Hyperion with Higgins--there was always something a little safe about these recordings. When working with Higgins, with the exception of their last release together, '04's duet Which Way is ...
