Mentioned many times,The Fox is a must. Besides everything else with Hutch, if u can find it, get Xocia's Dance as mentioned is a find, but its on Muse so it can be a pain in the ass to find.

Promised Land is his last recording (along with Billy Higgins) and I highly recommend it -- he redoes Mapenzi on it as well.

 

I wish Sony would reissue the Mainstream dates -- not just Harold Land, who has some great, GREAT stuff on the label, but also dates by Paul Jeffrey, Curtis Fuller, Roy Haynes, and others. A New Shade of Blue is blistering!

I just acquired A New Shade of Blue (recent Japanese CD reissue). It is most excellent!

You'll also want 'Choma (Burn)' as a companion piece.
