Product Description
Vibraphonist Gary Burton (practitioner of the "four-mallet technique" and one of the key figures in the development of fusion jazz during the late 1960s) has long been known for his ability to discover extraordinary younger musicians. GENERATIONS provides a showcase for Burton's talent-sniffing with the presence of virtuoso guitarist and composer Julian Lage. A mere sophomore in high school at the time of this 2004 release, Lage's age takes a back seat to his excellent compositions (he contributes three numbers to the record), sensitivity to group interplay, and spectacular skill as an improviser.
Ozone (piano) and Lage's solo playing are the standouts here, complemented by Burton's distinctive style. Exploratory yet accessible, GENERATIONS is an altogether impressive release.
