Product description

Dive into the rich, smoky world of West Coast jazz with Harold Land's "West Coast Blues," a timeless collection of hard bop and cool jazz gems, now digitally remastered for 2019. Originally released in 1960 on the Jazzland label, this studio album captures the essence of the West Coast jazz scene, featuring Land's distinctive tenor saxophone sound.

Recorded in San Francisco over two days in May 1960, "West Coast Blues" showcases Harold Land's mastery of the tenor saxophone, delivering a set of inventive compositions and fiery performances. The album opens with the title track, "West Coast Blues," a sultry, blues-infused number that sets the tone for the rest of the record. Other standout tracks include the up-tempo "Klactoveedsedstene" and the moody "Terrain," both of which highlight Land's impressive technical skills and creative prowess.

With a running time of just over 42 minutes, "West Coast Blues" is a concise yet powerful statement from one of jazz's most underrated saxophonists. The album's six tracks are a testament to Land's unique voice and his ability to blend the best of hard bop, bebop, and cool jazz into a cohesive and engaging whole. Whether you're a longtime fan of Harold Land or a newcomer to his music, "West Coast Blues" is sure to captivate and inspire. The album was released on March 1, 2019, by AVID Jazz.

This 2020 Limited Edition Reissue Remastered LP is pressed on 180g vinyl.

    Absolutely fantastic album, I'm really into this one. Not one bad song in sight. It's definitely a MUST for my vinyl collection, just can't get into the digital copy. Not much else to add.

    Fantastic album with top-notch mastering! The mix of instruments, performance, and composition is truly superb. My copy includes a 1987 Fantasy poly inner sleeve. The jacket isn't tip-on, though.

  • Jazz Workshop: CD Master?

    3 out of 5 stars
    EzuwglaFkoojMay 30, 2024United States🇺🇸

    This Jazz Workshop record doesn't exactly sound "terrible", but it comes across like a CD master to my ears. If someone could show me otherwise, I'd be happy to hear their thoughts!

About Harold Land

Harold Land, born in Houston, Texas, and raised in San Diego, California, is a renowned figure in the world of jazz, known for his significant contributions to hard bop and post-bop genres. Land's musical journey began in the late 1940s in Los Angeles, where he honed his skills before joining the legendary Max Roach/Clifford Brown Quintet in 1954. His tenure with this iconic group allowed him to develop a distinctive, modern style that often rivaled the virtuosity of his bandmates, earning him a reputation for inventive and emotionally resonant solos.

Land's strong, expressive tone on the tenor saxophone is marked by a unique blend of power and introspection, making his performances both captivating and deeply personal. Emerging from the competitive West Coast jazz scene of the mid-1950s, Land's legacy as a pioneer of hard bop is evident in his influential recordings and collaborations. His discography, including albums like "Harold in the Land of Jazz" and "The Fox," showcases his artistic evolution and enduring impact on the jazz landscape. Land's ability to blend technical prowess with a whimsical, introspective approach has solidified his place as a beloved and influential figure in jazz history.
