October 18, 1987 was a very special day for the two brothers Michael Brecker & Randy Brecker. For years both had conquered the stages of the world together with their band Brecker Brothers and earned the reputation of being among the world's leading jazz musicians on their instruments, the saxophone and the trumpet. On that evening in the legendary Hamburg factory, both were on stage together for the first time, each with their own band. This 2LP presents the Michael Brecker Band : Michael Brecker (sax), Mike Stern (guitar), Joey Calderazzo (keys), jeff Andrews (bass) (dr) and Adam Nussbaum (drums) - CD2. Historic concerts at a historic venue. Randy Brecker writes about it: These concerts were many years ago, and we both were on long Euro tours of one nighters, so I think we both tried to put on the best show we could, to outdo the other (in a good way! ) Amazing to me how at that point in time we were on different paths, I'd had that band with Berg, Kikoski, Ilg and Joey Baron, for a while, acoustic, more straight ahead as we say, while Mike was on uncharted territory with a new band...this might have been their first Euro tour so the competition was on, at one of our favorite places to play: 'Fabrik' in Hamburg!..So let the games begin! A MUST HAVE album!!!
