	The Diverse Vibes of Gary Burton
		Burton was extremely diverse in an instrument that was perceived as being limited and these two recordings show his eclecticism.
		Long before Miles Davis filled San Francisco’s Fillmore Auditorium, Gary Burton shared a bill at the venue with the Electric Flag and Cream and like some "Hendrixian ritual", the band would finish their live performances by piling their instruments at the center of the stage and solemnly departing.
		This comparison is further shown with Burton’s version of Jarrett’s "Moonchild/In Your Quiet Place." In addition, Burton displays his long time companionship with bassist Steve Swallow with a live version of Swallow’s "Green Mountains/Arise, Her Eyes" and studio renditions of "Hullo, Bolinas" and "General Mojo’s Well Laid Plan", which also appeared on Duster.

		GARY Burton ensured a predictably high-class finale to the Glasgow Jazz Festival with his latest quintet featuring four very young but prodigiously talented musicians alongside the veteran vibes maestro.
		Burton is one of the handful of key players on the vibes in jazz history, and his remarkably dexterity with four mallets is matched by an acute musical imagination.
		Burton not only gave his protégés plenty of space to play, but also included several compositions by Lage and the exciting Ukrainian pianist Vadim Neselovski in the set, alongside more familiar material by Steve Swallow and Rodgers and Hart.

		Burton: Generally, we’re not just looking for things to be different and all that; we just like to be open to anything that appeals to us, for something to try.

		Burton: I still think that most jazz education is in the form of experience, rather than actual classroom transfer of knowledge.
