Fine Collection of Breakthrough ECM Dates,
By
This review is from: Works (Audio CD)
Mr Burton, during the period these recordings were made, was often brilliant in his musical experimentations with several notable musical pioneers, and assisted so well, by producer Manfred Eicher. An extraordinarily fertile period for these great talents, (well-represented here) includes the memorable year 1974, when ECM released no less than four fine collaborations in Burton's name: Matchbook, a duet with Ralph Towner; Ring, with Eberhard Weber and Steve Swallow on basses, Mick Goodrick, and a young Pat Metheny on guitars, and Bob Moses on drums; Seven Songs for Quartet Chamber Orchestra (from which the beautiful Michael Gibb's piece "Three" is included here), and Hotel Hello, a duet with Swallow. I was fortunate enough to see a festival of these ECM artists in 1976 in Hampton, VA as they toured the U.S. for the first time. These albums made a great impression on me at the time, and each one of the "Works" in the series was excellently put together!

Very disappointed in this selection. I know Gary has done better work than this in his early years. Very slow & boring. Better works could have been selected..I am sure. Just saw Gary Live w Pat Metheny. He played some early stuff...terrific. Maybe this CD should have been titled "Workin On It".
