Originally recorded in Hollywood across two sessions in late 1967 and early 1968, The Peace-Maker marked the beginning of a remarkable creative partnership between tenor saxophonist Harold Land and vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson — the first of ten collaborations between the two. Rounded out by pianist Joe Sample and released on the Cadet label in 1968, the album delivers a lively, lyrical session that stands as one of the most inspired jazz recordings of its era.

Now reissued as part of Verve Records' celebrated By Request Series, The Peace-Maker has been remastered by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound, ensuring the music sounds as vibrant and dynamic as ever. Pressed on 180-gram audiophile quality vinyl at Third Man Pressing in Detroit, this release is a worthy way to experience a true gem of late-'60s West Coast jazz.
