Our Take

Jolly good day, music aficionados! Today we're diving into the whimsical world of legendary saxophonist Charles Lloyd and his latest album "Trios: Sacred Thread." This album is like a cup of Earl Grey tea on a rainy London afternoon - soothing, yet invigorating.

From the moment the first notes of "Dream Weaver" hit your eardrums, you're transported to a world where jazz reigns supreme and all your worries melt away. Lloyd's saxophone playing is as smooth as a fresh jar of Marmite, weaving intricate melodies that wrap you in a warm embrace.

But it's not just Lloyd who shines on this record - his trio, consisting of pianist Gerald Clayton and drummer Kendrick Scott, are like the musical equivalent of the Queen's guard, standing tall and providing a solid foundation for Lloyd to soar.

Tracks like "Glimpse" and "Prayer" showcase the trio's impeccable chemistry, with each member taking turns to shine like the crown jewels. It's a musical conversation that is both playful and profound, leaving you with a newfound appreciation for the power of trio performance.

So, grab your favourite crumpets, put on your best tweed jacket, and let Charles Lloyd's "Trios: Sacred Thread" take you on a journey through the streets of London and beyond. This album is truly a musical treasure that deserves a spot in every jazz lover's record collection. Cheers!
