Wewantsounds presents this reissue of
Harold Land
's 1971 Mainstream Records LP
Choma (Burn)
, recorded in Los Angeles with
Bobby Hutcherson
and featuring
Reggie Johnson
on bass,
Ndugu
and
Woody Theus
on drums,
Bill Henderson
and
Harold Land Jr.
on piano/Fender Rhodes. Together the musicians create a superb spiritual mix of funky and modal jazz that was the trademark of the Harold Land-Bobby Hutcherson quintet between 1968 and 1972.
Choma (Burn)
is reissued here in its original gatefold artwork with all the photos scanned from first generation negatives recently found in the Mainstream Records vaults, and comes with newly remastered audio and a two-page insert including new liner notes by
Kevin Le Gendre
. Growing up in San Diego, and settling in Los Angeles early on, Harold Land became a pioneer of the hard bop style by recording with the
Clifford Brown
-
Max Roach Quintet
in 1954. Through his involvement with the quintet, he became acquainted to
Bob Shad
who had produced the recordings on his EmArcy label. Becoming a prominent voice on the West Coast jazz scene at the end of the '50s, Land recorded many albums for Pacific Jazz as a leader and, in the late '60s, he started a fruitful collaboration with vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson forming the Harold Land/Bobby Hutcherson Quintet in 1968. The quintet would last until the early '70s and record a handful of highly acclaimed albums for Blue Note, Cadet and Mainstream Records.
Choma (Burn)
, comprised of four tracks, has an interesting instrumentation and features two drummers -- Ndugu and Woody "Sonship" Theus -- playing simultaneously alongside Reggie Johnson's chunky double bass and Bill Henderson and Harold Land Jr.'s piano and Fender Rhodes. A must have for all fans of the Harold Land-Bobby Hutcherson Quintet fans,
Choma (Burn)
catches the musicians at the height of their creative peak.
