This year I'll be taking a once-a-month look at specific instruments and showcasing five songs or tunes which place that instrument front and center.
This year's feature is called Spotlight On...
...and for our fifth installment, I'm venturing out from the primal body instruments of hand-clapping, whistling and vocal harmonies to explore percussion. Following April's look at drums, here are five songs which shine a spotlight on the vibraphone or the vibes.
1 - Flying Home - Lionel Hampton - 1957
2 - Caj Tjader - Maramoor Mambo - 1965
3 - Heartstrings - Milt Jackson - 1957
4 - So Many Things - Gary Burton Trio - 1961
5 - Head Start - Bobby Hutcherson - 1966
