for anyone whose heart broke when eric dolphy died, it's making me warm all over to swing along in my chair listening to these most worthy wailers, seeming exponents of the dolphy school of hard bop. that improvising together is so difficult to pull off well, it seldom happens by amateurs or pros, and here it's a gas. bravo and crank up the volume to indoctrinate the neighbors!
Michael Brecker is simply awesome! For me personally it's beyond all qestion that he was by far the greatest tenor player around. The progression he managed to make during his whole career is simply amazing, and his early death is a great dilemma, not only for myself but for jazz as a whole.
Hi Bret, love this vid, three saxplayers -totally individual and different from each other- with a rhythm section who match everything, this is for me the way to play standards in the new century with an acoustic instrumentation!
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!

its a joke by the way ive got this on going thing in my school stage band about sax players
although soprano saxes do annoy me due to the lack of internation and the constant reminder of Kenny G.
