Summary: Charles Lloyd's journey continues
Comment: Lloyd does it again with Rabo de Nube. His mystical explorations mix well with Jason Moran's playful neo-honkytonk musings. Amazing rhythm section as well (as always). An instant classic!
Customer Rating:
Summary: A Treat for Moran fans and Lloyd fans
Comment: Lloyd has always led groups that tend to emphasize his own individual genius, with himself as the primary soloist (on tenor, bass clarinet, & flute) in front of a rhythm section. His rhythm sections have always contained a pianist of the highest order who is well versed in both the jazz and classical traditions--Keith Jarrett, Brad Mehldau, Bobo Stenson, Geri Allen, and now Jason Moran. While Lloyd has always allowed his pianists considerable solo space, Moran really steals the show here. Lloyd's solos are similar to the searching style that his defined much of his playing, but here he solos a bit more quietly--a lot of flute and bass clarinet--and a bit more sparsely than usual, in the style of his early 90s ECM recordings. Moran, on the other hand, is less subdued with a lot of rolling and really exciting solos that counterbalance Lloyd's approach. The musical dialogue between the two players gives on the feeling that Lloyd's musical searching and careful selection of every note is answered by the joyous discoveries that flow through Moran's effusive solos. While Moran's playing seems somewhat aggressive compared to that of previous Lloyd accompanists, it is far less experimental than a lot of his work as a leader with Blue Note (I like his Blue Note stuff, but prefer his playing here). Reuben Rogers on bass and especially Eric Harland on drums add a complex rhythmic drive to both Lloyd and Moran's playing. Definitely one of the best jazz cds released so far in 2008.

Summary: Great moment of music during my life!
Comment: While its downright impossible for me to match the eloquence and articulate content of the other reviewers for this CD, who have reviewed this masterpiece with the accolades it richly deserves. I have to say, i purchased one other CD at the same time, "Jazz at massey Hall" along with this, two powerhouse records.
The integrity and teamwork involved in this CD is perfect and the best part is, with each listen, its an opportunity of Kaizen which is answered with subsequent listens! :) I cannot add anything more to what has already been praised about this CD... Please do buy it, its simply an overwhelming listen, that would get your inspirations and senses flowing again!
Five Stars!
Standout track ( on repeat mode in my player ) : Migration of Spirit

Summary: Magnificent!
Comment: Magnificent! Magnificent! Magnificent!
Lloyd fanatics will eat this up! The playing
is intense and the track selection is very
balanced with all the delicious Lloyd flavors.
Lots of flute time on this one also for all those
fans who yearn for more Lloyd flute tracks on his
releases. I am new to Jason Moran and this
guy is beyond spectacular ...reminds me a lot
of McCoy Tyner at times and of course Monk.
Also, the recording is excellent and very
intimate. Carlos Santana has been quoted
as saying that the 70 year old
Charles Lloyd is one of America's
greatest living musical treasures. I can't
wait to hear what he will sound like when he
is 80!

Editorial Reviews:

To celebrate his 70th birthday, (March 15th) Charles Lloyd presents his first live quartet album; a really exciting set of music recorded in Basel in 2007 featuring a revamped Quartet now with young stars Jason Moran on piano and Reuben Rogers on bass both making ECM debuts here. The latest offering is blisteringly up-tempo and sensually ballad-oriented and include also a beautiful cover of Cuban singer-songwriter Silvio Rodríguez s tune.
