Total Eclipse marks a high point in Bobby Hutcherson’s innovative Blue Note catalog, showcasing his creative partnership with saxophonist Harold Land. Captured in New York during the summer of 1968, this landmark jazz session brims with dynamic interplay and features a stellar lineup including Chick Corea, Joe Chambers, and Reggie Johnson.

This release is celebrated for its rich, atmospheric sound—Hutcherson’s vibes and Land’s saxophone weaving through assured compositions like “Herzog” and the epic, shape-shifting closer “Pompeian.” The Tone Poet Series treatment ensures the music’s warmth and subtleties shine, making Total Eclipse a standout addition for jazz aficionados and collectors alike.
