Personnel: Gary Burton (vibraphone); Stephane Grappelli (violin); Steve Swallow (electric bass); Bill Goodwin (drums). Recorded at Studios Europe Sonor, Paris, France on November 4, 1969. Originally released on Atlantic (1597). Includes liner notes by Joel Dorn and Jean-Louis Ginibre. Atlantic has thus far been very slow to reissue its six valuable Gary Burton records. This particular set is the most accessible of the group, for it matches the advanced vibraphonist with the classic violinist Stephane Grappelli in a quartet also including electric bassist Steve Swallow and drummer Bill Goodwin. The music alternates between standards and originals (including Swallow's famous "Eiderdown"), and both Grappelli and Burton prove to be flexible enough to have much common ground despite a 35-year difference in age. A frequently delightful set. ~ Scott Yanow
