Review title: Reflective, slow-tempo classic
Product review: The second of Lloyd's ECM albums, this one brings back Bobo Stenson but swaps out Palle Danielsson and Jon Christensen for Anders Jormin and Ralph Peterson, Jr. It's one of the strongest of Lloyd's ECM albums, and despite sticking to mostly slow tempos, holds your attention throughout.The album opens on a meditative note with the beautiful ballad "Requiem" (revisited on Voice in the Night and the Athens Concert). Then, that meditation over, the group launches into... another ballad! A lot of the album showcases Lloyd at his most Coltraneish - both "Pilgrimages", "Takur", and "When Miss Jessye Sings". The music is reminiscent of Crescent, A Love Supreme and Quartet Plays without being derivative.Of the five albums Lloyd recorded with Stenson, I'd put this one in second place after Canto, in a tie with the much feistier All My Relations. Check it out!
