The Freedom Book is an album by American jazz saxophonist Booker Ervin featuring performances recorded in 1963 for the Prestige label. All compositions by Booker Ervin except where noted. A Lunar Tune" - 7:50. Cry Me Not" (Randy Weston) - 4:53. Grant's Stand" - 8:01.

THE BOOK COOKS brings Booker and Zoot together for what I'm pretty sure is the only time on record. They make a striking contrast, and though Zoot is playing with his usual good nature, and robustly bluesy feeling, to my ears he is completely outclassed by Ervin (and I say that as a bigger fan of Zoot than Booker). Booker Ervin belongs in the tenor sax hall of fame with his contemporaries Wayne Shorter and Joe Henderson. Right from the slow, lowdown bass walk that opens "The Blue Book," this album announces that it is the real thing. Everyone plays magnificently and with unmistakable originality: Booker with his keening sound, the unacknowledged master Tommy Turrentine, the great Tommy Flanagan, bedrock man George Tucker, and dancing Dannie Richmond.
