“Redemption Song”

Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly

Won’t you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
‘Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
‘Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look? Ooh!
Some say it’s just a part of it
We’ve got to fulfill the book

Won’t you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
‘Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
Redemption songs

[Guitar break]

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our mind
Wo! Have no fear for atomic energy
‘Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look?
Yes, some say it’s just a part of it
We’ve got to fulfill the book

Won’t you help to sing
These songs of freedom?
‘Cause all I ever had
Redemption songs
All I ever had
Redemption songs
These songs of freedom

The Pine Tree: An Appeal to Heaven series

was created from 1998 -2000.

 

They were prayers,

invocations to God,

to rise,

to breathe,

to hope,

after the sudden death of my Mother.

X

I had lost the use of my hands from packing,

packing, lifting, lifting

packing,

lifting, lifting, packing,

lifting, lifting, lifting

packing,

packing, lifting, lifting, lifting,

packing

my Mom’s home

while I was

shot with grief and shock.

My hands

and

congenitally dislocated / incomplete hip joint

crumbled and broke.

X

I had no home

– living illegally in my studio where the heat was off on the weekends.

I took showers at the YMCA.

X

I could only hold a wallpaper brush

as my hands were kept still in braces.

I wrapped my braced hands with plastic.

I had to create.

I painted on back of older work

– creating a white tabula rasa ground.

I drew a line down the center with a 2B pencil.

The brush strokes were rhythmic

– back and forth,

inhale and exhale,

a lullaby.

X

Creating this series kept me alive

– the sacred spark of divinity was buried within me.

I could hear its longing whisper to be found,

its quiet continuous wail:

“Can you hear me?

Please respond.

Come to me.”

Symbolic depiction of Rawls’

VEIL OF IGNORANCE.

The citizens making the choices

about their society make them from an “original position”

of equality and ignorance (left),

without knowing what

gender, race, abilities, tastes, wealth,

or

position in society they will have (right).

Rawls claims this ensures they will choose a just society.

FIRST NIGHT | JAZZ

Charles Lloyd at the EFG London Jazz Festival review — a wonder to behold

Barbican

 

John Bungey

Monday November 22 2021, 12.01am GMT, The Times

Charles Lloyd performs as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival TATIANA GORILOVSKY / EFG LONDON JAZZ FESTIVAL

★★★★★
Here was an evening that reflected the span of the sprawling EFG London Jazz Festival. Headlining was Charles Lloyd, a venerable saxophonist who has led many musical lives: teenage sideman to BB King; million-seller with Keith Jarrett in his band; a jazz dropout phase gigging with the Beach Boy; and eventually a triumphant return as elder statesman.

In support were Nérija, a mostly female septet, featuring the talents of a new wave of London players, among them Cassie Kinoshi on alto sax, Sheila Maurice-Grey on trumpet, and Shirley Tetteh on guitar…But to cite the evening as a kind of generational face-off would be misleading. First, Lloyd may be 83, but surrounded by younger players, his music remains forward-looking…

About

“Jazz, at its very roots, is a music created, developed and shaped by Black culture. The EFG London Jazz Festival has worked for years to promote cultural diversity and opportunity, but we know that there remains much more to be done.

We are listening, learning and supporting, and hope that our Festival programme this year, despite global challenges, represents the diverse society in which we live and the range of people who form the backbone of our music.

Moving forward, we will try our best to be self-aware, to challenge ourselves at every turn and to actively push for positive change.”

Charles Lloyd

https://www.theguardian.com/music/2021/nov/18/jazz-star-charles-lloyd-im-a-seeker-trying-to-change-the-world-with-sound

“We played the Royal Albert Hall in 1964,” says Charles Lloyd, recollecting his first ever UK performance. “Packed it to the rafters.” He was 26, playing tenor saxophone in Cannonball Adderley’s majestic band and getting his first taste of a world beyond US jazz and blues clubs. “I’m looking forward to returning,” says Lloyd of this weekend’s appearance at the EFG London jazz festival.

Now 83, he speaks in a drawl that mixes jazz argot and spiritual entreaties – he says he spent the pandemic “building steps”, meaning to a higher plane rather than a DIY project – and is raring to re-engage with an audience. “I’ve been playing in front of audiences since I was nine. Been a professional musician since I was 12. It’s what I do.”

Charles Lloyd – Arrows Into Infinity

A Film by Dorothy Darr and Jeffrey Morse

Arrows Into Infinity chronicles the arc of an improviser’s still-unfolding life, moving through time with memories, archive footage and music, lots of music. Charles Lloyd’s story is a special one, and it intersects with important moments in jazz history. Lloyd grew up in Memphis, Tennessee, and had early contact both to masters of an increasingly sophisticated jazz tradition and the raw voices of the blues. Booker Little was a childhood friend, Phineas Newborn a mentor. In his teens Lloyd hit the road with Howlin’ Wolf. He befriended Ornette Coleman, Don Cherry and Billy Higgins in a period when blueprints for musical freedom were redrawn, and replaced Eric Dolphy in Chico Hamilton’s band, soon building a reputation as an exceptional saxophonist and a composer of strikingly original melodies. His own groups drew together some of the most exciting players of the day, and his late 60s quartet with Keith Jarrett and Jack DeJohnette made an impact at many levels, playing opposite Hendrix and Janis Joplin at the Fillmore Auditorium, touring Europe’s festivals to great acclaim, making a now-legendary foray into the Soviet Union, and selling a million copies of their Forest Flower album, a massive FM radio hit. Then Charles Lloyd retreated from the limelight, preferring to play his flute in the mountain forests of Big Sur. For almost two decades sightings of him in jazz contexts were rare. A tentative return to public service was made in the company of pianist Michel Petrucciani; the 1989 ECM recording Fish Out Of Water, with Bobo Stenson, Palle Danielsson and Jon Christensen signaled a new beginning. Since then Lloyd has led a succession of outstanding bands including the recent quartet with Jason Moran, Reuben Rogers and Eric Harland and the Sangam trio with Harland and Zakir Hussain. These musicians contribute their thoughts about Charles Lloyd’s work to this remarkable documentary – as do Herbie Hancock, Ornette Coleman, Robbie Robertson, Jack DeJohnette, Don Was, John Densmore, Jim Keltner, Geri Allen, Larry Grenadier, Alicia Hall Moran, Stanley Crouch, Manfred Eicher, Michael Cuscuna, Arthur Monroe and Ayuko Babu. Arrows Into Infinity is available in DVD and Blu-ray formats. Running time 113 minutes. Subtitles in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian.
