mjzee Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 Release date July 1: 'Inborn' a 2CD set led by pianist Richie Beirach, presents recordings from 1989 featuring Randy Brecker, Michael Brecker, John Scofield, George Mraz and Adam Nussbaum! All the tracks were recorded at the legendary Clinton Recording Studios in New York, where many of the great Bill Evans trio and some of the later Miles Davis and McCoy Tyner records were made. This all-star combo was assembled under the leadership of pianist Richie Beirach (born 1947), it included the Brecker Brothers - the late tenor saxophonist Michael and the trumpeter Randy, the guitarist John Scofield, bassist George Mraz and the drummer Adam Nussbaum. At the time of recording all six of them were internationally recognised names in jazz, with the Brecker Brothers, who were fast becoming "superstars" of modern jazz, leading the way. The setting for the recording was quite exceptional and is worth mentioning. On the first day of their recording session in mid-April of 1989 the six jazz musicians performed the pieces highly focused and without disturbance at the Clinton Studios in New York. However, on the second day they invited friends and acquaintances and played some of the same pieces as the day before, but now under more difficult conditions, live on stage in front of an audience. The result is a double album of historical significance for the world of jazz. A must-have for your collection! Personnel: Richie Beirach (piano), Randy Brecker (trumpet, flugelhorn), Michael Brecker (tenor saxophone), John Scofield (guitar), George Mraz (bass), Adam Nussbaum (drums) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 Shouldn't it be "Brecker brothers" instead of " Brecker Brothers"? The latter was an actual band, with, like, repertoire, Will Lee, and tour jackets, shit like that. This doesn't seem like that? Or are they trying to be sneaking up behind you?

HutchFan Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 (edited) Just a heads-up: This "new" 2-CD set is an expanded re-packaging of music that was previously issued as Some Other Time: A Tribute To Chet Baker (Triloka, 1990). The Triloka release was a single disc, so there's more music on the new Jazzline (re)issue. But still... just sayin'. 14 hours ago, JSngry said: Shouldn't it be "Brecker brothers" instead of " Brecker Brothers"?
