🥊 “Muhammad amazed me; il admit it. He out thought me; he out-fought me. On that night he was just the better man in the ring. Before the fight, I thought I’d knock him out easy. One round, two rounds. I was very confident. And what I remember most about the fight was, i went out and hit Muhammad with the hardest shot to the body I ever delivered to any opponent. Anybody else in the world would have crumbled. Muhammad cringed; I could see it hurt. And then he looked at me; he had that look in his eyes, that’s the main thing I remember about the fight…..After the fight, for a while I was bitter. I had all sorts of excuses….. I should have just said the best man won, but I’d never lost before so I didn’t know how to lose. I fought that fight over in my head a thousand times. And then, finally, I realised I’d lost to a great champion; probably the greatest of all time. He won fair and square, and I’m just proud to be part of the Ali legend. If people mention my name next to his from time to time, that’s enough for me. That, and I hope Muhammad likes me, because I like him. I like him a lot.”

George Foreman.

Truly, this new trio – featuring Charles Lloyd on saxes and flute, Indian tabla master Zakir Hussain, and the young American drummer Eric Harland – is an absolute revelation. The title of their album “Sangam,” translates as “union” or “confluence” and is apt in describing not just the breath-taking interplay and common purpose among the three musicians in Charles Lloyd’s trio, but also the deep spiritual love that sweeps off the stage and into the audience, taking up everyone in the excitement of the moment: inclusive, playful, joyous."
