{"product_id":"hagars-song","title":"Hagar's Song","description":"Product Description\n\nHagars Song, the 2013 release from longtime ECM luminary Charles Lloyd, is an interactive duo recording with Jason Moran, the pianist who has been a key member of Lloyds latter-day quartet, contributing to the albums Rabo de Nube (2008), Mirror (2010) and Athens Concert (2012). Hagars Song, a collection of intimacy and homage, features pieces especially dear to Lloyd, ranging from compositions by Billy Strayhorn (Pretty Girl AKA Star-Crossed Lovers), Duke Ellington (Mood Indigo) and George Gershwin (Bess, You Is My Woman Now) to a standard strongly associated with Billie Holiday (You ve Changed), Brian Wilsons most famous Beach Boys ballad (God Only Knows) and a Bob Dylan song definitively interpreted by the Band (I Shall Be Released). The centerpiece of the album is the title suite composed by Lloyd and dedicated to his great-great-grandmother, who was taken from her home in south Mississippi at age 10 and sold to a slave-owner in Tennessee.\n\nReview\n\nLloyd has an utterly personal sound that he exploits beautifully on ballads and lyrical, near-abstract pieces. --The New Yorker\n\nThe bottom line is that he is now producing, both live and on recordings, some of the finest playing of his career. --Los Angeles Times\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00ARX2WLK\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00ARX2WLK.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:LLOYD,CHARLES \/ MORAN,JASON\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
