Dream Weaver is the third album by jazz saxophonist Charles Lloyd, his first released on the Atlantic label, and the first recordings by The Charles Lloyd Quartet featuring Keith Jarrett, Cecil McBee, and Jack DeJohnette.

Here is a band that packed rock stadiums in the late 1960s without guitars or electric keys, reaching rock fans with a mix of hooky tunes, Latin swingers, and a surprising amount of John Coltrane's spiritual gravitas and raw free-jazz power. Saxist/flautist Charles Lloyd's masterstroke was the discovery of two young rising giants in pianist Keith Jarrett and drummer Jack DeJohnette.

Lloyd's querulous flute-playing is an acquired taste, but his biting, bagpipe-like tenor tone and rough, impulsively sketched lines are full of character. The 21-year-old Jarrett is a volcano of invention, while the power of Cecil McBee and DeJohnette on bass and drums establishes just why this band was such a success with rock crowds.



Straight, no Chaser.
