Review
by Scott Yanow
This reissue (which surprisingly has not yet come out in complete fashion on CD) was originally recorded for the Jazzland label. Tenor saxophonist Harold Land leads an all-star sextet that includes guitarist Wes Montgomery, trumpeter Joe Gordon, pianist Barry Harris, bassist Sam Jones and drummer Louis Hayes. Together, they perform three of Land's originals, "Don't Explain," and Charlie Parker's "Klactoveedsedstene," and an early version of Montgomery's "West Coast Blues." The music is as well-played and swinging as one would expect from this superior bop group.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
Esta reedición (que sorprendentemente aún no ha salido completa en CD) fue grabada originalmente para el sello Jazzland. El saxofonista tenor Harold Land lidera un sexteto de estrellas que incluye al guitarrista Wes Montgomery, al trompetista Joe Gordon, al pianista Barry Harris, al bajista Sam Jones y al baterista Louis Hayes. Juntos, interpretan tres de los originales de Land, "Don't Explain" y "Klactoveedsedstene" de Charlie Parker, y una versión temprana de "West Coast Blues" de Montgomery. La música es tan bien tocada y con tanto swing como se puede esperar de este grupo de bop superior.
