Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0602517548114 Format: Live Label: Ecm Records Manufacturer: Ecm Records MPN: 001066302 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Ecm Records Release Date: March 11, 2008 Studio: Ecm Records Editorial Review: Product Description: To celebrate his 70th birthday, (March 15th) Charles Lloyd presents his first live quartet album; a really exciting set of music recorded in Basel in 2007 featuring a revamped Quartet now with young stars Jason Moran on piano and Reuben Rogers on bass both making ECM debuts here. The latest offering is blisteringly up-tempo and sensually ballad-oriented and include also a beautiful cover of Cuban singer-songwriter Silvio RodrÃguez s tune. Average Rating:
 Rating: - in top formcharles lloyd exhibits generosity and grace in not bringing the musical proceedings to a halt after jason moran establishes his presence with his first note, and moran never lets up. jason moran is lloyd's prometheus and this is probably one of his finest recordings, after going down some dull roads jason moran is back on track. the virtuosity displayed on earlier solo performances and on his recording featuring sam rivers, finds its fit as part of charles lloyd's quartet in arrangements ...

I have never heard him sound better. Great Music by one of the all time greats. Joe Bordelon Katy, Tx Rating: - Lloyd's Best Album - Even better than Forest FlowerOverview: At age 70 Charles Lloyd has delivered the best performance of his career. However, credit for this fantastic live set belongs to all performers on this group not just Lloyd. Each performer (Jason Moran on piano, Eric Harland on drums, Rueben Rogers on bass) play with telepathic communication and flawless execution on this live set recorded in Europe in 2007. The music at times reminds one of Miles Davis' mid 60's work, Coltrane's mid 60's work, and on some tracks pay tribute to Thelonious ...

'Rabo de Nube' is definitely the best new jazz album I have heard this year, probably this decade. there just too much to say in praise of it... Where to begin. This is a new band. Recently Lloyd has been playing a good deal with the phenomenally talented drummer Eric Harland (see 'Sangam' and 'Jumping the creek' both fine albums ... Read More |
