Harold in the Land of Jazz (also released as Grooveyard) is the debut album by saxophonist Harold Land recorded in 1958 and released on the Contemporary label.

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states: "Land shows that hard bop was very much alive in Los Angeles in the late '50s. His tone is cooler and softer than it would become later on, but it was already pretty distinctive".
