Product Details

Charles Lloyd has called the Lobero Theatre his home stage for decades, and the Santa Barbara venue has become sacred ground for some of his most unguarded performances. At 87, Lloyd remains one of the last living links between the classic Blue Note era and the present, a tenor voice shaped by time spent with Cannonball Adderley and a spirit that has never stopped seeking.


Legendary saxophonist Charles Lloyd convened a new trio of musical explorers with Jason Moran on piano and Marvin Sewell on guitar for his 87th birthday concert at the Lobero Theater in Santa Barbara and immediately brought them into the studio to record his remarkable twelfth Blue Note album, Figure In Blue. The spacious double album travels wide expanses of musical terrain from beautiful ballads to raw Delta blues and includes stunning homages to both Duke Ellington and Zakir Hussain. 2 LP set on 180g black vinyl.
