Landmarks is an album by the American jazz saxophonist Joe Lovano recorded in 1990 and released on the Blue Note label.[1]

Reception

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "Although the title of this CD makes it sound as if tenor-saxophonist Joe Lovano was performing veteran jazz classics on this date, all but one of the ten songs played by his quintet are actually Lovano originals... Lovano is consistently creative during the modern mainstream music".[2]
