CHARLES LLOYD - Waves (1972) lp | FLAC (tracks), lossless

After breaking up his popular quartet in 1969, Charles Lloyd largely dropped out of sight. He re-emerged once in awhile in the '70s to record a bit, but those sessions tended to be influenced by his interest in transcendental meditation and were often merely mood music. 1972's Waves is mostly forgettable, finding Lloyd on tenor and flute playing relaxing and soothing solos. Three of the eight numbers are of slightly greater interest because of the presence of guitarist Gabor Szabo, but the use of background vocalists on "TM" does not help, and most of the music is quite faceless.

CHET BAKER - You Can't Go Home Again (1977-2005) RM / APE (image+.cue), lossless

Verve/A&M's reissue of Chet Baker's 1977 album You Can't Go Home Again features the trumpeter/vocalist supported by an all-star band that includes guitarist John Scofield, tenor saxophonist Michael Brecker, and alto saxophonist Paul Desmond in his final recording session. Former Miles Davis sidemen Tony Williams and Ron Carter also add an organic touch to the proceedings and a warm contrast to the electric pianos and Moogs that flow through Don Sebesky's arrangements. Alternate takes of the title track and others including "I'm Getting Sentimental Over You/You've Changed," "The Best Thing for You," and "If You Could See Me Now" make this double-disc set a more complete look at one of Baker's most important latter-day albums. by Heather Phares
