Classic smooth jazz, very cool. Quartet comprised of piano, stand up bass(big butch bull fiddle), drums, and Bobby on the Xyla. Put my wife to sleep, but I loved it. - Sun, 25 Jun 2006 12:49am

bobby hutcherson plays the vibraphone, not the "Xyla". it's definetely not "smooth jazz" either. if it fell into any category, it'd be a mix of the harmonic developments and speed of post-bop with the freedom of free jazz. and I have no idea how such technical mastery and complex harmonic structures could put a person to sleep.

anyway I was glad he played a lot from his 1965 release, Dialogue, which is probably his best stuff. I have been a fan since before I started playing music and before I really heavily got into jazz. He truly is one of the best vibraphone players ever, next only to Lionel Hampton. It was an amazing time and I have a video of every song. Low quality video footage but really good sound. - Sun, 25 Jun 2006 12:55am Edited: Sun, 25 Jun 2006 12:57am
