Charles Lloyd: The Water Is Wide

by Glenn Astarita
Tenor saxophonist Charles Lloyd pursues a slightly different angle on his new and seventh “ECM” release titled, The Water Is Wide.

John Abercrombie and Billy Higgins are holdovers from the Voice in the Night album, with pianist ...

Charles Brown: Blues And Other Love Songs

by Mark Corroto
Labeled as a blues singer, pianist Charles Brown walks the line between jazz, blues and a long lost genre, popular music. Born in 1922 and classically trained on the ivories, Brown began singing during wartime and was often compared to Nat King Cole. During the forties and fifties, singing R&B didn’t mean rap nor did it ...
