Catalog Number: 0218948MSW Format: LP UPC: 4029759189480 American Vibraphonist Dave Pike may not be as well-known as contemporaries Gary Burton and Bobby Hutcherson, but recordings with Bill Evans, Herbie Mann, and Paul Bley evince Pike's pedigree. His MPS albums from 1969 through the early 70s have become classics in the jazz world. Underpinned by funk and fusion, Infra-Red ventures into country rock. A remarkable album that manifests Pike's status in the European and international jazz scene. With it's iconic cover this record from 1970 has long been a collector's album that will now be available again for everyone to enjoy. On this album Dave Pike has a prominent band on his side. The amazing German guitarist Volker Kriegel is Pike's perfect counterpart, while Viennese bassist J.A. Rettenbacher and drummer Peter Baumeister complete the musical spectrum. A truly special album not only for the fusion scene and the vibraphone but for all of jazz. Liner notes by jazz pianist Christoph Spendel who was part of the New Dave Pike Set.
