@@Thorstevens1 Indeed. His interpretation of Stravinsky's "Rites of Spring", on his album by the same name, is beyond marvelous. The album, released in the 70s I think, is, like the original composition, timeless.
I learned to emphasize tone and realize a good flutist doesn't correlate with playing so many notes at once. Hubert taught me the importance of empty space as you climb the energetic release of stair-stepping octaves with a flourish .
This song is so perfect,........it is not only the music,...........but it is the absolute synergy between the players..............they are perfect playing together................they are perfect........It is almost as if they are one person in 5 bodies................This is heaven.........I wish it would never end.............
Mr. Laws is a hero among flautists. Others also have great technique, but his musicality is unique and sets him apart. I wonder what kind of flute he plays?
From Land of Passion....also on many compilation albums with and without vocals. The entire Laws family are "musicians" but NONE including Ronnie (who achieved much commercial success) even come close to touching Hubert's level of musicianship......although there aren't many musicians that have. He's one of the few flutists who successfully crossed over from playing classical to becoming the most prolific jazz flutist ever.....there are weak links in his performance style......tone, technique, feel.....he's got it all.

Brilliant. Utterly beautiful. I was in Brazzavile n the Republic of Congo and a guy came to play flute for tips. I said he was like Hubert Laws and he was so excited.
Sounds so good concerning how long ago this was the way I started liking Jazz listening to my daughter playing the flute while all the others was doing their thang...I fell in love with Jazz band from that point I never missed a Jazz concert From college until today.
I heard about this tune from an avid jazz follower awhile back...and here it is years later I am now having the pleasure of listening to it...and Admittedly I'm saying, where have I been ...it's a tune that immediately has your attention: it's a light rhythmic but not imposing tune yet evocative and surely earns its title...The Land of Passion... thanks sir....peace
Mr. Laws, you take the flute to another level of greatnes, just beautiful, thank you ! I love my flute!
The most beautiful tone of any jazz flute player.

You can't break it down any better than you said it.Great Comment.Thank You😊😊😊
My favorite and the best of all time IMO.
Making music. Putting the flute in perfect context.
Amazing musicians and Hubert Laws flute is magic!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Heard this song 45 years ago on the album Land of passion. It all came back hearing this again in 2021.
So nice!
Increíble. Y luego la gente se pregunta por qué el jazz es adictivo 🤩
Dang that bass player is tight.
Also worked for several years for Carmen McRae.
its fantastic
The great Ralph Penland passed away on March 14, 2014. I had the honor of working with him many times. He is dearly missed.
Heavenly! What a magnificent splendiferous jam. Hubert Laws was among the finest flutist in history.
I love this vibe -- like I'm on a solitary beach at sunset, with a songbird trilling a lullaby at me. #TrueTalent
Thanx for sharing....yeah Hubert is up there with Eric Dolphy, whos an inspiration to my flute playing.
the legendary Hubert Laws...
And the great John Leftwich's impeccable playing with his touch added to Hubert's incredible talents and band of greats!
How f*cking good is this. It's so cohesive.
clean freakin' sound...Hubert Laws is the man!
And Brother Laws has technical prowess and is also incredibly musical.
What a great composition full of passion and soul and life
I can't say enough about Hubert Laws music! So, I just listen.
Boy! That Laws family is just dripping in talent...goodness!

First rate- beautiful playing by everyone.

Mr. Laws is a hero among flautists. Others also have great technique, but his musicality is unique and sets him apart. I wonder what kind of flute he plays?
desde su famosa family que no escuchaba a este fabuloso hombre
Do you know what LP this is from? Used to listen to him and his brother all the time. Thanks for the memories....
From Land of Passion....also on many compilation albums with and without vocals.

I concur... Hubert Laws is the best of the best..! An AMAZING talent
Wish I could play like that - beautiful! What kind of flute is that? Looks gold to me
Gold Muramatsu
I fell in love with this song, in 1979 at Florida A and M University... It still sounds good !!!
Good stuff 👍
Very very nice..♥️♥️👋👋👋👋
Hubert laws is a genius from another dimension
Absolutely......!!!!!!
magnificient!!!!
Hubert Laws is simply the best to ever do it. End of story.
My ears have been blessed
Incrideble tone quality, phrasing and feel.
Just discovered this group. I found their "Land of Passion" LP at a local thrift shop and now loving it!
You should get Hubert Laws' "Afro-Classic" recorded in the 1970s. His Vulcan musical mind-meld of the classical & jazz idioms is brilliant.
Beautiful ... thanks for sharing!
I love jazz thanks
The groove just there.
fabulous....................................................................
