Not in Our Name is a jazz album by bassist Charlie Haden, recorded in 2004 and released by Verve Records in 2005.

Contents

The album is the fourth by Haden's Liberation Music Orchestra, the follow-up to Dream Keeper (1990).

Reception

The Penguin Guide to Jazz wrote that "It's respectful but with a certain impatience over the routine sentimentalization of these lovely tunes, particularly at a time when the country is again at war." [2]
