Gary Burton • New Vibe Man In Town

Review by Scott Yanow
Vibraphonist Gary Burton's debut as a leader shows that he was a brilliant player from the start of his career. Utilizing a sparse trio that includes bassist Gene Cherico and drummer Joe Morello, Burton (even at this early stage) sounds quite original and unlike his predecessors (Lionel Hampton, Red Norvo, and Milt Jackson). Highlights include "Joy Spring," "You Stepped Out of a Dream," and Burton's original "Our Waltz." This boppish set is easily recommended.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
El debut del vibrafonista Gary Burton como líder demuestra que es un jugador brillante desde el principio de su carrera. Utilizando un escaso trío que incluye al bajista Gene Cherico y al baterista Joe Morello, Burton (incluso en esta etapa temprana) suena bastante original y diferente a sus predecesores (Lionel Hampton, Red Norvo y Milt Jackson). Lo más destacado es "Joy Spring", "You Stepped Out of a Dream" y el original de Burton "Our Waltz". Este conjunto boppish es fácilmente recomendable.
