Michael Brecker Group - Leverkusen, Germany, 1998-10-19 

After 40 years he still manages to impress me with his unbelievable skill and make me melt with his sound and musicality. He is greatly missed.

Michael thank you XXX R.I.P. !!!

0:00 Round Midnight/Delta city blues 15:40 El nino 27:40 Cat's cradle 37:08 Madame Toulouse 47:31 Song for Bilbao

Rest In Peace Ralph, his drum solo starting at 25 on El Niño is out of this world! Hope your jammin with Michael again.....

So many bags!! Swing to Latin, to Caribbean..to straight bop. Great band(saw them in 97..). P O W E R.

One of the best concerts I've seen Michael perform. The whole band was smokin.......

I'm looking for my brain after "Delta city blues" performance. Bloody brilliant!

Michael Brecker never ceases to amaze and inspire. What a wonderful experience this is.Thank you for posting this!

The sax solo leading up to Round Midnight is the most brilliant sax solo ever.

Подобно первым лучам зари, эта музыка открывает вам глаза на новые обещания и на все чудеса природы. Вызывая невероятные силы, эти произведения трогают струны сердца, вызывают ностальгию и пробуждают любовь, ободранные жизни и оцепенение измученных стражников

Ralph Peterson... A force of nature...

本当に惜しまれるスーパーサックスミュージシャンでしたね〜コルトレーンの再来とも言われ178余タイトルのアルバムに参加し、自身のリーダアルバムは僅か10枚とはこれ如何に〜?幅広い音楽性を持ち様々なジャンルのミュージシャンに愛されたマイケルはまさにサックス🎷の神様ですね〜逸材は簡単に生まれませんね〜

Beast Peterson Absolute beast And his Latin/Afro Cuban feel is simply beautiful

Stunning mastery of the tenor sax!

Awesome. Joey C is on fire!

Mr BRECKER, l' aboutissement du Meilleur et sa disparition laisse un grand vide...

BEST - РОССИЯ !

Wait's who's the guy playing the saxophone? Not too sure myself, but I bet it is God.

Respect. Michael has his virtual skull cap or pre-ordered halo on (5.16) for the amazing and virtuosic Paganini meets 'trane meets Bo-Diddley tacet- warm-up at the inception of this Holy gig. James Genus is clearly a Genius, a modern Ray Brown; Ralph Peterson as close to a living nephew of Philly Joe-Jones and Tony Williams as you could probably get at the time; his samba at 24.20ish is like Lars Ullrich met Nana Vasconcelos for a jam and his fills in Mdme Toulouse verge on the impossibly good though i don't think he'd heard of pat metheny, lol. Brecker has an unlimited number of unlimitedly interesting musical ideas, and an unlimited number of hours of practice, an unlimited collection of 'trane albums and an unlimited sense of time, but had probably under-slept. Nevertheless, that tone on the swing numbers has got to be so Dexter Gordon by the end it is remarkable and Brecker sails through the performance at maximum quality level in every genre, so professional.. Joey can handle himself with the biggest of the big boys. Imagine coming on to a tune at 200 bpm after 8 minutes drinking Perrier? Heavyweight gig for arguably the all-round greatest post-'trane player. Peace and thanks un million pour la post. Peace

Mikey and Ralphie have now both passed. 😞

Does anybody know if there is a recorded version of 'El Nino' somewhere?
