In the Vanguard

In the Vanguard is a live album by vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson featuring performances recorded in late 1986 at the Village Vanguard and released the following year on Orrin Keepnews' Landmark label.

Reception
On Allmusic, Scott Yanow observed "Vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson was once associated with the avant-garde to a certain extent but by the 1970s it was clear he had found his voice in the modern mainstream of jazz. ... the results are high-quality modern bebop. The communication between the players is quite impressive".
