Thanks for your advice ;) Title: Re: Charles Lloyd Post by: brianc on June 20, 2008, 02:56:06 PM He's awesome live. Still the same kind of meditative jazz that he's been playing since the '70s, and a little bit of funkiness every now and again.

Great minds think alike, don't they? ;) Title: Re: Charles Lloyd Post by: SloopJohnB on August 06, 2008, 12:27:33 PM So, I finally saw him on Saturday and had a GREAT time. He was with two other guys (Eric Harland and Zakir Hussain) who are amazing in their own fields too (drums/piano and percussions, respectively). They played a selection of old compositions and more recent ones, and everything was perfect!

It dates from the same era as Carl and the Passions: So Tough and Holland. |
