@kingpleasure Absolutely...

I saw this band in 1973 at the Keystone Korner in San Francisco. Bob Berg is and always will be one of my all time favorite tenor players!

Yeah, Summer In Cental Park. This didn't sound too rehearsed. Little loose on the head but killer solos! The album is outstanding with the Mike n Randy along w/Bob Cranshaw and the impeccable Al Foster, the swingiest drummer alive. Horace sounded great here. Is that Mike Richmond playing Fender bass?

[lidesnowi]

Rehearsed?

[ignaciomoran]

Sound check. The studio recording is tighter w the Brecker Bros. But Tom Harrell n Bob Berg (bless his soul) are stellar. My favorite Horace Silver years. The man can write!

Boy,would I love to see footage of Silver with the Brecker brothers...

Great video; Silver was still making great music in the '70s

You won't find this one for sale anywhere. The 76 trip IS available on DVD.

[kingpleasure]

Yes, Tom Harrell. This is from a DVD of H.S at the Umbria Jazz Festival. I've seen it for sale.

[xlfutur1]

Is that Tom Harrell playing trumpet?

[davewhitesax]

The tune was familiar: It's "Summer In Central Park" from Horace Silver's "In Pursuit of the 27th Man" which featured The Brecker Bros but not on this tune which was played by a trio plus vibes.

God! This rocks. Where did the video come from? Very nice post. Berg was one of the all-time greats.
