Bobby Hutcherson – Medina (1980/RE 2024)
Recorded in 1969 but unreleased until 1980, Medina highlights Hutcherson’s post-bop brilliance with sharp interplay and rich textures.

Harold Land nie zapisał się tak w pamięci fanów jazzu, jak inni wielcy saksofoniści ery hard i post-bopu. nic nie szkodzi, zawsze można to nadrobić, a już szczególnie wspominając płyty nagrane z Bobbym Hutchersonem, jak choćby "A New Shade of Blue" #Całapłytoteka #jazz #HaroldLand #muzyka
