Direct link but you can find it on most streaming services.

I've been a fan of Gary Burton (vibraphone) for years, but this is the first album where I discovered Makoto Ozone (piano).

I love the piano / vibraphone combination. There are very few other pairs of instruments that are so equally matched in playing together and accompanying the other while one solos. Piano/Guitar is the only other combination that works just as well in my opinion. But with piano/vibraphone, and these two in particular, the accompaniment style is so percussive that all of the up-tempo pieces just have a fantastic groove and sense of rhythm even with no bass of drums.
