Charles Lloyd - Manhattan Stories (2 CD, 2014/FLAC-HD)


Manhattan Stories
is a trip back in time, a journey to a long gone and long-missed era. It's a window into the great Charles Lloyd's art at a period of transition. The shows presented on this beautifully packaged two-disc set—one recorded at the infamous Slugs' Saloon in the summer of 1965, the other recorded at Judson Hall in September of the same year—took place shortly after Lloyd left the employ of Julian "Cannonball" Adderley and before he became a cross-over sensation and hero to hippies, moving a million units of Forest Flower: Charles Lloyd At Monterey (Atlantic, 1966).

Gabor Szabo discography [1958-2018]

 

Szabó Gábor István (8 March 1936 – 26 February 1982), better known as Gábor Szabó, was an influential jazz guitarist, famous for mixing jazz, pop-rock and his native Hungarian music.

Gábor Szabó was born in Budapest, Hungary and began playing guitar at the age of 14, inspired by jazz music heard on Voice of America radio broadcasts. He escaped Hungary in 1956, a year of attempted revolt against Soviet-dominated Communist rule, and moved to the United States where he attended the Berklee School of Music in Boston.
