Charles Lloyd – Passin' Thru (CD)
Product Details
Charles Lloyd's journey from the psychedelic ballrooms of 1960s San Francisco, where his quartet became one of the first jazz groups to draw rock-sized festival crowds, to his late-career renaissance as one of Blue Note's most vital voices is one of the great long arcs in American music. Recorded live, *Passin' Thru* captures the rare interplay Lloyd has built with this quartet over years of touring, a band that listens as deeply as any working group in jazz today.
2017 release from the jazz great. NEA Jazz Master saxophonist and musical truth-seeker Charles Lloyd reconvenes his remarkable New Quartet with pianist Jason Moran, bassist Reuben Rogers, and drummer Eric Harland and takes us on another mystical journey with this live recording of Lloyd's original compositions. Passin' Thru is his third release on the Blue Note Records label - Wild Man Dance and I Long To See You. He had spent the previous 25 years recording for the ECM label. Though he primarily plays tenor saxophone and flute, Charles Lloyd has occasionally recorded on other reed instruments, including alto saxophone and the Hungarian tárogató.
