It was a clever move by George Avakian, producer at Atlantic Records, to record live the Charles Lloyd Quartet during their appearance in Monterey, and to release the LP under the title "Forest Flower". Although the hippy flower-power movement tended towards a rather different musical genre at the end of the Sixties, they were blown away by this music. The four artists attracted masses of people and ensured that every seat was taken and all standing room filled at jazz festivals such as Newport, Molde (Norway), Antibes (France) and the Fillmore East and West. The super group also appeared in Monterey, 120 Km south of San Francisco, the centre of the hippy movement, on 18 September 1966. On the LP we have the almost 18-minute-long title piece and the standard work "East Of The Sun", which were recorded at the festival. The disc is complemented by a Keith Jarrett composition and one by Cecil McBee, both of which were recorded in the studio ten days before the festival. Of particular note is the rich interplay, the energy that is palpable throughout, the perfect harmony in each and every change of mood, and the intensity. Even 50 years later, it is quite clear that Charles Lloyd managed to break down the barriers between pop and jazz. Charles Lloyd is committed to this objective to this very day! All four musicians are still active, although they no longer appear together as a group. Such a special treat for the ears is offered by this newly mastered disc only. This Speakers Corner LP was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the cutting head. More information under

Es war ein sehr kluger Schachzug des Atlantic-Produzenten George Avakian, den Mitschnitt des Charles Lloyd Quartet in Monterey unter dem Titel "Forest Flower" zu veröffentlichen. Die Hippie-Flower-Power Bewegung Ende der 60er, eigentlich einem anderen musikalischen Genre zugetan, fuhr total auf diese Musik ab. Die vier Musiker füllten die Besucherstühle, Bänke und Stehplätze bei den Festivals in Newport, zwischen Molde/Norwegen und Antibes/Frankreich und die des Fillmore East und West. Und auch Monterey, 120 km südlich von San Francisco, der Hauptstadt der Hippies, präsentierte am 18.September 1966 die Supergroup. Auf der LP findet sich das beinahe 18 Minuten lange Titelstück und der Standard "East Of The Sun", aufgenommen während des Festivals. Ergänzt wird die LP durch eine Komposition von Keith Jarrett und eine von Cecil McBee, aufgenommen im Studio zehn Tage vor dem Festival. Herausragend bleibt das intensive Zusammenspiel, die Energie, fühlbar in jeder Sekunde, die perfekte Harmonie auch bei jeder Änderung der musikalischen Stimmung, die Intensität. Auch nach 50 Jahren ist hör- und fühlbar, dass sich Charles Lloyd die Sprengung der musikalischen Barrieren zwischen Pop und Jazz auf die Fahne geschrieben hat. Diesem Ziel ist Charles Lloyd auch heute noch verpflichtet, alle vier Musiker sind noch immer aktiv - auch wenn sie nicht mehr gemeinsam auf den Festivalbühnen stehen. Für diesen Hochgenuss steht nur diese neu gemasterte LP zur Verfügung. Diese Speakers Corner Produktion wurde unter Verwendung von analogem Masterband und Mastering 100% rein analog gefertigt.
