American vibraphonist Dave Pike may not be as well-known as his contemporaries Gary Burton and Bobby Hutcherson, but his recordings with Bill Evans, Herbie Mann, and Paul Bley attest to his pedigree. His Mps albums from 1969 to the early 1970s have become classics in the jazz world. Backed by funk and fusion, Infra Red ventures into country rock. A remarkable album that testifies to Pike's status on the European and international jazz scene. On this album, Dave Pike is surrounded by a top-notch group: the incredible guitarist Volker Kriegel is the perfect counterpart to Pike, while bassist J.A. Rettenbacher and drummer Peter Baumeister complete the musical spectrum. Infra Red is a truly special album, not only for the fusion scene and the vibraphone, but for all of jazz.
