Bobby Hutcherson rivals Roy Ayers and Lionel Hampton as the world’s preeminent vibes player, with a string of classic albums dating to the 1960s.
One of his most popular compositions is “Little B’s Poem,” originally recorded in 1965. This performance is taken from the 1985 concert DVD One Night With Blue Note. Featured players are Hutcherson, Ron Carter (bass), James Newton (flute), Tony Williams (drums), and Herbie Hancock (piano).
