<p>Gary Burton is an American jazz vibraphonist and composer. He developed a unique style of four-mallet chording on the vibraphone, which made him stand out as an innovator in the field. Despite being one of the few openly gay musicians in jazz history, his career remained unaffected when he came out in his 40s. Unfortunately, health issues forced him to retire from performing at the age of 74 in 2017.</p>

As well as being the great vibes innovator of the era, Gary Burton has been a most astute talent scout. In 1973, The New Quartet introduced Abraham Laboriel: this was the first recording of the bassist who would shortly become one of the most in-demand session players across all genresGuitarist Mick Goodrick also emerged as a player to watch with this album, shining in a well-conceived programme with compositions of Keith Jarrett, Chick Corea, Carla Bley, Mike Gibbs and bandleader Burton.
