5 out of 5 stars Red In The Land Of Harold.......2001-02-03

The small indie Koch label has rescued another jazz gem from the vaults at Atlantic Records! "Hear Ye!," the 1961 "debut" recording from the Red Mitchell-Harold Land Quintet (both the bassist and tenor saxophonist were seasoned veterans of the recording studio independently) also features pianist Frank Strazzeri, drummer Leon Petties and the brilliant, under-recognized trumpeter Carmell Jones. (Carmell made invaluable contributions to the classic albums "The Blues Book" by Booker Ervin, and "Song For My Father" by Horace Silver.) The album's eight tracks consist of six originals -- two by Land (the disc's best in my opinion), two by Mitchell (including the spirited title track), and one each by Jones and Strazzeri -- and two standards. While "Hear Ye!" may not quite rank up there with Land's "The Fox" or "West Coast Blues" (see my reviews), it is a remarkable session that deserved to see the light of day on CD much earlier than the 21st Century.
