		"Charles Lloyd is truly one of the great original voices in jazz and it is a pleasure to have him back again," Daniel Atkinson said in his introduction as program director of the Athenaeum Music and Arts Library, under whose auspices the concert was organized.
		Lloyd removed the overcoat during the first of these, strolled upstage to put it away, sat down on a high stool, between the bass and the drum kit, while nodding along to the cerebral guitar solos played by Abercrombie who, at stage left, was squinting ferociously at his music stand.
		Lloyd the mystic: who walked away from the pinnacle of his international success in the 1970s to spend the best part of two decades in meditative retreat at Big Sur.

	Jazzmatazz Review-The Water is Wide-Charles Lloyd
		Charles Lloyd's mid to late-1960s group with Keith Jarrett was one of the most popular jazz groups of its time, playing in large rock concert halls and touring throughout the U.S. and Europe.
		This year Lloyd returns with The Water is Wide, which features Abercrombie and Higgins from Voice in the Night, joined by the young pianist Brad Mehldau and his bassist Larry Grenadier.
		Charles Lloyd's tenor sounds so soft and rounded on the first few tunes that at times it strangely reminds me of a harmonica.

	BBC - Jazz Review - Charles Lloyd, Lift Every Voice
		Lloyd and his band balance the reflective nature of much of the material with their warm, optimistic playing...
		This is Lloyd's 9th album for the label, and reunites him with drummer Billy Hart as well as bassist Larry Grenadier and guitarist John Abercrombie.
		Lloyd's tenor is luxuriously rich throughout; sticking mostly to the upper register of the horn and peppering his phrases with sweet quicksilver flurries, he makes a beautiful noise.

	Charles Lloyd: The Water Is Wide - PopMatters Music Review
		Charles Lloyd isn't quite in their league yet, but he has been releasing high-quality traditional jazz albums on and off since the late 1950s.
		Charles Lloyd and his companions take on jazz classics like Carmichael's "Georgia" and Strayhorn's "Lotus Blossom" in an elegant, graceful way that makes me imagine this CD playing at a classy soiree or in a historic nightclub.
		Charles Lloyd's The Water Is Wide is a delight to have on in the background, but it doesn't push the music in any way it hasn't gone before.

	Plan 9 - Charles Lloyd/Billy Higgins : Which Way Is East (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Saxophonist Charles Lloyd--a dedicated, soulful, oft-underrated disciple of John Coltrane's early-1960s, spiritually charged style--and drummer Billy Higgins recorded together on a number of occasions, but, sadly, this album proved to be the last.
		On WHICH WAY IS EAST, Lloyd brings his usual assortment of reed instruments (along with piano and percussion), while Higgins performs on an array of instruments not typically associated with him--including guitar and guimbri--and even sings (in a gentle, folksy, Afro-Brazilian style) on a few tracks.
		(Some of Lloyd's '70s recordings presaged aspects of New Age and world music.) This two-disc set is a momentous release, as it captures two remarkable musicians (and friends) at the top of their game, engaging in a series of varied and empathic duets.

	Charles Lloyd/Eric Harland/Zakir Hussain : Features : One Final Note (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Higgins was Lloyd’s drummer of choice for most of his late-90s/early-00s recordings, making the passing of “Master Higgins” (as Lloyd lovingly referred to him) in 2001 an even harsher blow than it ordinarily might have been.
		Fast-forward to November 2004 and Lloyd’s somewhat surprising one-night tribute to Higgins at Minneapolis’ Dakota Jazz Club and Restuarant, accompanied by young drummer Eric Harland and renowned tabla master Zakir Hussain—a combination that seemed rife with the possibility of furthering the loose, spiritual vibe of Lloyd and Higgins’ recorded duets.
		Lloyd’s tone on tenor, particularly in this live setting, was impeccable—warm, rich, and almost buttery as it filled the room with his ecstatic, yet always melodic lines.

	CD Review of Charles Lloyd - Lift Every Voice on ECM @ jazzreview.com
		Charles Lloyd has always imbued his music with depths of emotion that reach into the hearts of his listeners, even when neither the musician nor the audience can adequately express the effect that Lloyd’s music has upon them.
		Lloyd is a master balladeer, and his performance on “Rabo de Nube,” unhurried though it is, evokes a prayer-like solemnity and uplift.
		Fortunately, Charles Lloyd’s music is evolving, even as he remains consistent, as he has throughout his entire life, with the backup of a new group of musicians who intuitively understand Lloyd’s aesthetic and moral sensibilities as thoroughly as did the members of his earlier group.

	Charles Lloyd: Sangam
		Lloyd is joined by master tabla player Zakir Hussain, and drummer/percussionist Eric Harland, who is a member of SF Jazz Collective and has worked with Lloyd since Higgins’ death, notably on the release Jumping the Creek.
		Lloyd also allows his Coltrane influence to show, but this is not to his detriment, because he is able to show that he has absorbed the lessons of Coltrane and can apply them in his own manner, without self-consciousness.
		Lloyd has risen, since his resurgence in the late 1980s and his subsequent string of stunning recordings for ECM, to become one of jazz music’s most refined elder statesmen, and the musician who has most been able to advance both the musical and spiritual agenda addressed by John Coltrane during his lifetime.

	CHARLES LLOYD / FOREST FLOWER/SOUNDTRACK
		But before all of these radical changes, there was Lloyd, who deserves credit for dramatically expanding the audience for "jazz" to include the hordes of acid-dropping, long-haired children of the 60s.
		Lloyd built up a new market for jazz artists, inadvertently paving the way for the commercial success of fusion.
		Lloyd plays the tenor with a heavy dose of Trane, but never in a way that sounds derivative.

		Lloyd's ancestors are African, Cherokee, Mongolian and Irish, a lineage that was never undermined by the racism of the time.
		It wasn't until 1981 that Lloyd moved to break a decade of silence when a remarkable 18 year-old pianist from France, Michel Petrucciani, arrived in Big Sur and Lloyd was compelled to help introduce this gifted artist to the world.

		I know his regular crew did not participate but Lloyd himself told me that he was on that raid immediately before he came on leave to visit my parents in August, 1943.
		I have tried to research Lloyds service career and I find that his regular crew did not take part in that raid, this leads me to the conclusion that he must have flown with a different crew and try as I might I cannot find out which crew that was.

	Legendary Jazz Artist Charles Lloyd in a rare performance at MCCC with pianist Geri Allen and Guitarist John Abercrombie (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Lloyd jumped into the New York club scene of the early 1960s, playing at the Five Spot, Birdland, Half Note, Jazz Gallery, Slugs and Village Vanguard and soon befriended many of the jazz masters he so admired—Coltrane, Monk, Mingus, Coleman Hawkins and Miles Davis, among others.
		Lloyd embarked on a solo career in 1965 after leaving Cannonball Adderley to form his own quartet, a brilliant ensemble that introduced the jazz world to the talents of pianist Keith Jarrett, drummer Jack DeJohnette and bassist Cecil McBee.
		In 1967 Charles Lloyd was voted “Jazz Artist of the Year” by Down Beat and the Quartet was invited to tour the world.

		If Lloyd's spiritually charged tone remains his own throughout, there are occasions when the aura of Getz at his most Brazilian comes to mind, as in the opening "Dancing Waters", as well as that of Coltrane at his most ritualistic--especially evident in the rubato power of "Miss Jessye".
		Lloyd has been compared to Coltrane and although I thoroughly disagree because he has his own voice, there are certain songs where elements of Trane come through.
		I love this disc because it restored my belief that Charles Lloyd is one of the unsung giants of jazz who has endured decades and is still going strong to be one of the premier contemporary players.

		During the 1970s, Lloyd retreated from his prolific public persona to his estate in southern California, pursuing meditation studies and teaching.
		While Lloyd and Higgins had kept in touch over the years, 1998 brought their collaborative capacities to fruition with the recording "Voice in the Night." And, Lloyd and Higgins played as a duo in the SF Jazz Festival Sacred Space concert in 1997.
		Another career boost for Lloyd came in 1992 when Lloyd appeared at Carnegie Hall with McCoy Tyner and Elvin Jones in a JVC Jazz Festival tribute to John Coltrane, with critics calling the concert the highlight of the festival.

	Charles Lloyd :Lift Every Voice
		Charles Lloyd was booked to play at The Blue Note in New York City during the week of September 11.
		Lloyd shows that it is possible to be delicate without sacrificing depth of sound or meaning, a lesson that smooth jazz players should take to heart.
		Just as those who heard Lloyd’s performances last September at the Blue Note were able to put aside their fears and doubts for awhile and immerse themselves in Lloyd’s moods and meditations, listeners to this album will find themselves able to do the same.

	A Jazz Love Affair / Charles Lloyd pays homage to Billy Higgins at the SF Jazz Fest Spring Season
		By then, Lloyd was a decade into the comeback from his semi-retirement of the '70s and '80s; he had recorded several brilliant albums for ECM, starting with 1989's Fish out of Water and including Notes from Big Sur, The Call, Canto and All My Relations.

	Charles Lloyd and Billy Higgins: Which Way Is East - PopMatters Music Review
		Lloyd may have taken a false turning, and he did quit at the height of that perilous popularity.
		Lloyd plays something akin to a Bartok miniature on piano, well-named "Sea of Tranquility", before a second bloc of three on average four-minute-long improvisations on alto.
		Lloyd plays Tibetan oboe as well as saxophones and taragato, with Higgins accompanying on all but one title, whether on drums or others of his set of gear.
