O’s Notes: Veteran vibraphonist Gary Burton teams up with Julian Lage (g), Scott Colley (b) and Antonio Sanchez (d) to form his new quartet. They play ten compositions of which eight are originals written by members of the band. The music is contemporary and energetic. Gary has been performing for over fifty years with what could be a who’s who in jazz! Guided Tour is punctuation in his recording career, as he shows no signs of slowing down. Also check out his book Learning To Listen for great insight into the man and his music.
