Review

Import exclusive 1997 compilation from jazz fusion act Michael & Randy Brecker, two of the most in-demand & respected musicians on the New York music scene have graced countless records with their distinctive horn arrangements for more than twenty-five years. Born in Philadelphia the brothers moved to New York in the sixties where Randy joined Blood, Sweat & Tears before becoming part of Horace Silver's quintet. Michael & Randy later hooked up with Billy Cobham to form the pop-jazz collective Dreams whilst also doing session work during the early seventies. By 1974 the two brothers were ready to venture out on their own, releasing the debut single 'Sneakin' Up Behind You'. Although the track was a club favorite it failed to make the charts. The commercial breakthrough came in 1978 with East River, a stomping & funky brass workout which was a top 40 hit in the UK. 12 tracks including 'East River', 'Skunk Funk' & 'Sneakin Up Behind You'.
