A unique exploration of John Coltrane's later music took place on September 23, 2007 at the Saxophone Summit Concert with Ravi Coltrane, David Liebman and Joe Lovano, the Saxophone Summit, performing. For Expression, they were joined by Randy Brecker, with Phil Markowitz on piano, Cecil McBee on bass, and Billy Hart on drums.

Hi Jacob, Liebman has many recordings that are well worth checking out. One of the ones I really like is "Elements-Water" featuring some very unusual and wonderful playing by Pat Metheny as well.
-
Could someone recommend some Liebman recordings? Like a starting point? The only recording I've heard is "Voyage". Everything of him on youtube is from the past ~10 years and I just can't get into his playing for some reason. Judging from comments on other videos, it seems if you dislike his playing you are instantly a fan of smoothjazz/Kenny G... What is Liebman's "equivalent" of Lovano's "Tenor Legacy" and "Rush Hour"?
-
Listen to late Coltrane sometime. Or Ornette Coleman's "Free Jazz".
At least then you'll have the context in which to appreciate this.

Its difficult not to compare with the orginal... unto itself, I dig it. But the original version happens to be one of my favorite trane compositions and performances.

I believe Randy Brecker was involved, not only for his ability to play, but for his sentimental reasons. His brother, Michael, passed away 8 months before this show. What better way to carry on with Sax Summit than to have the brother of the legendary Michael Brecker come in to play. I feel that if you replaced R. Brecker with W. Marsalis then you would lose the energy and emotional aspect that Randy would bring. Is Marsalis a better player than Brecker? Well that varies on the person you ask.
