This record is one of the most perfect Jazz Records I've ever heard. Thank you Orgy in Rhythm guy.

It's that late 1960s right before everyone goes electric vibe. It's straight ahead, hard bop. So you have to be in that jazz mode to appreciate the intracacies, but everyone is playing off eachother and they get to several points where all the distinct parts flow together even in improvisation. It's a little like that Charles Lloyd record, Forest Flower. Harold Land blows out of his mind and Bobby Hutcherson's vibes sound perfect underneath him. But it's not too vibrphone oriented, you know what i am saying. And on "stylin" Land breaks out ths flute, it's sick. Peace maker has a trane feel to it. What really makes the whole record is how closely everyone plays off eachother, it's like listening to democracy.
Anyway, Orgy in Rhythm has it free. http://orgyinrhythm.blogspot.com/2007/06/harold-land-quintet-peace-maker.html
PS: I still play Love Break 1 and 2. Stellar mix for those special alone time moments. What's up with you?
