Charles Lloyd suggestions


This name came up in another thread. I'm unfamiliar with him, but he sure seems to have some fans out the in A'gon land. Looking for the best cd/lp to start out with. Suggestions?

I agree with Amandarae; that live version of "Forest Flower" is some of Charles Lloyd's best work ... superior to the studio date of the same title with Chico Hamilton (Impulse). Also, try "Fish Out Of Water", a nicely recorded ECM CD production performed with Scandinavian side men ... very mellow end-of-a-tough-day kind of stuff. Had the good fortune a few years back to see/hear him at one of his rare live shows.
