{"product_id":"harold-land-quintet-the-peace-maker-2023-verve-by-request-reissue","title":"Harold Land Quintet - The Peace Maker (2023 Verve By Request Reissue)","description":"\u003cp\u003eTexas-born tenor saxophonist Harold Land was an adept stylist whose sound brought together the big swinging tone and edgy harmonics of the hard bop era with the warm lyricism and dusky romance of the West Coast, where he spent much of his life. A member of the celebrated Clifford Brown and Max Roach Quintet, Land also enjoyed a vibrant solo career, releasing albums like 1959's \u003cem\u003eThe Fox\u003c\/em\u003e, 1963's \u003cem\u003eJazz Impressions of Folk Music\u003c\/em\u003e, and 1968's \u003cem\u003eThe Peace-Maker\u003c\/em\u003e, the latter of which introduced his long-running quintet with vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson. He also worked with luminaries like Wes Montgomery, Thelonious Monk, Hampton Hawes, and Red Mitchell, and was a member of the Gerald Wilson Orchestra. Influenced by John Coltrane, his playing grew more exploratory throughout the '60s and '70s, yet he never lost his swinging, melodic style as evidenced by such late-career albums as 1995's \u003cem\u003eA Lazy Afternoon\u003c\/em\u003e and 2001's \u003cem\u003eA Promised Land\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first pairing of tenor saxophonist Harold Land and vibist Bobby Hutcherson crackles with the energy and joy of collaboration. Each spurs the other to new zeniths of creativity and craft, yielding one of the finest if little-known jazz LPs of its era. \u003cem\u003eThe Peace-Maker\u003c\/em\u003e is a particularly apt title. The record's serene, supple contours glow with a lyricism that eschews the angularity of bop. Land's graceful sax melds perfectly with Hutcherson's warm, shimmering vibes to create a deeply soulful, even divine sound. His original compositions are no less thoughtful, galvanized by a yearning for harmony that embraces all senses of the term. — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/album\/the-peace-maker-mw0001881640\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eAllMusic\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"620\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/78wtbF3YesRKXZ5za8afKi?utm_source=generator\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e↓\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Verve Records – B0038186-01, UMe – B0038186-01, Cadet – LPS 813, Cadet – LPS-813\u003cbr\u003eSeries: Verve By Request\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Vinyl, LP, Album, Reissue, Stereo, 180g\u003cbr\u003eCountry: US\u003cbr\u003eReissued: 2023 \/ Original Release: 1968\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Jazz\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Post Bop\u003cbr\u003e⦿\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile under: Jazz – Saxophone\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Verve","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43365564514462,"sku":"602455861207","price":48.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/files\/81cTCxIRndL-_SL1500.png?v=1711008073","url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/products\/harold-land-quintet-the-peace-maker-2023-verve-by-request-reissue","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
