Gary Burton • The Time Machine




This Gary Burton LP was a bit unusual in that he overdubbed piano and marimbas in addition to his distinctive vibes. There is still plenty of interaction with bassist Steve Swallow and drummer Larry Bunker, and the material (which includes Swallow's "Falling Grace," "Norwegian Wood" and "My Funny Valentine") is strong. Also unusual is that Burton (normally never a composer) contributed several pieces, including "The Sunset Bell," "Six-Nix, Quix, Flix" and a few short "Interims." A highlight is the vibraphonist's earliest recording of Jobim's "No More Blues," although it is not on the same level as his classic unaccompanied version of a few years later.

Este LP de Gary Burton fue un poco inusual ya que doblaba el piano y las marimbas además de sus vibraciones distintivas. Todavía hay mucha interacción con el bajista Steve Swallow y el baterista Larry Bunker, y el material (que incluye "Falling Grace", "Norwegian Wood" y "My Funny Valentine" de Swallow) es sólido. También es inusual que Burton (normalmente nunca un compositor) haya contribuido con varias piezas, incluyendo "The Sunset Bell", "Six-Nix, Quix, Flix" y algunos "Interims" cortos. Lo más destacado es la primera grabación del vibrafonista de "No More Blues" de Jobim, aunque no está al mismo nivel que su versión clásica no acompañada de algunos años más tarde.

  1. Hi Egroj.
    First of all, thanks for all that great job you are doing. It´s amazing!
    I found that in this album, it misses the track 10 (B5) - My Funny Valentine.
    All best, from that great fan
