Transcribed from an early RCA LP pressing that has the 'live in studio' sound that was commonplace on their classical catalog. Associated equipment was a multi kilobuck moving coil cartrige and a very high end tube phono stage.

Considered to be one of the first "fusion" efforts, 1967's 'DUSTER' still sounds fresh and vital. The band, Burton (vibraphone), Larry Coryell (guitar), Steve Swallow (double bass) and Roy Haynes (drums), give an impeccable demonstration of telepathic musicianship. Three of the album's tunes were composed by Gary's former teacher at the Berklee College Of Music, Michael Gibbs, with two by Swallow, one apiece from Burton and Coryell, and one by the young and upcoming composer Carla Bley, who became a favorite composer of Burton's. Even when cooking, and man can they cook, the band exudes a gossamer vibe that some may feel is too mellow for their tastes. What they lack in grit is more than made up with bursts of furious melodic and harmonic interplay. You can catch hints here and there of Coryell's tentative steps toward a more aggressive style of playing, especially on his intense and free "One, Two, 1-2-3-4." Other highlights include the cool and swingin' lead-off "Ballet," the dreamy "Sweet Rain," Swallow's intricately melodic "General Mojo's Well Laid Plan" and what I feel is the album's highlight, a beautifully understated take of Bley's "Sing Me Softly Of The Blues".....
