From the days when he took a psychedelic vison of jazz to 60s rock venues, to his brilliant quartets of recent years, saxophonist Charles Lloyd is a totemic figure from the spiritual side of jazz. He continues to explore his forward-looking vision here with seriously talented pianist Jason Moran, bassist Reuben Rogers, and drummer Eric Harland premiering material from their new ECM recording Mirror.
