CHARLES LLOYD Vinilo y CD

Review: Charles Lloyd returns with his latest musical offering, The Sky Will Still Be There Tomorrow, a majestic double LP of new studio recordings from the legendary saxophonist. Despite this being Lloyd's eleventh album for Blue Note, it still makes for a sudden comeback, as it is the first new set of sessions to appear since 2017's twin releases, 'Vanished Garden' and 'Tone Poem'. On The Sky Will Still Be There Tomorrow, Lloyd proffers a muted, tender sound, abiding by emotive progressions backed up by homespun lower bout hits and natural piano playing. Lloyd hardly needs to lift a finger to glean the reams of emotion that swell from his instrument.

Review: Trios: Ocean is the second of three LPs in the trio album, Trio of Trios, in which the esteemed saxophonist and winds master Charles Lloyd trinitizes to no end. Jokes aside, he is fittingly joined by two other musicians - Gerald Clayton on piano, and guitarist Anthony Wilson - to produce a holy trifecta of jazz, and a distinctly watery, peaceful album meditating on the instrumental blues.
