  Spirit Seeker
  By Josef Woodard
  The saxophonist has not just had a career as a musician : He’s lived a quest, on which he has connected various worlds through his music. From the 1 million-selling Forest Flower, which is celebrating its 40-year anniversary, to his remarkable new trio with Zakir Hussain and Eric Harland, Lloyd walks through the spiritual side of jazz.
