Discovery!

Discovery! is the debut album by jazz saxophonist Charles Lloyd released on the Columbia label featuring performances by Lloyd with Don Friedman, Eddie Khan, Roy Haynes, Richard Davis and J.C. Moses. The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars and states "Lloyd's Coltrane-inspired sound was already in place, and his flute playing was becoming distinctive. The music is essentially melodic but advanced hard bop, a strong start to an important career".[3] The piece "Ol' Five Spot" is a homage to the legendary New York jazz club of the same name. The album was also released with the title Bizarre in the UK, at the time.

gollark: Please do not do what <@153718115644080128> suggested.
gollark: Basically, it listens for `key_up`/`key` events and tracks if each key is pressed or not pressed.
gollark: This is roughly what potatOS does.
gollark: ```lualocal keys_down = {}local function keyboard_shortcuts() while true do local ev = {coroutine.yield()} if ev[1] == "key" then keys_down[ev[2]] = true if keys_down[keys.leftCtrl] then -- do whatever with new key event end elseif ev[1] == "key_up" then keys_down[ev[2]] = false end endend```
gollark: Yes there is.
