Honeypie present a reissue of
The Harold Land Quintet
's
The Fox
, originally released in 1960.
Harold Land
was one of the greatest West Coast tenor saxophone voices of all time. A strong player rooted in bop language, famous for his role in the legendary
Max Roach
and
Clifford Brown
quintet and later as part of another great Los Angeles based combo, such as bassist's
Curtis Counce
group.
The Fox
is a 1960 album originally released on the Hifijazz label and reissued by Contemporary in 1969. Here, Land is at the head of a marvelous quintet, some sort of who's-who of the LA jazz scene:
Dupree Bolton
(trumpet),
Elmo Hope
(piano),
Herbie Lewis
(bass), and
Frank Butler
(drums). Besides the well-known instrumental skills of these musicians, the album displays four superior compositions by the great pianist Elmo Hope and two of Land's originals. Music that combines a deep feeling for the blues and a highly sophisticated West Coast sound approach. "
This is high-quality hard bop, easily recommended to fans of straight-ahead jazz
