Wow... Kenny Kirkland! There are so many great live versions, but this is my new fave!

Never heard Hakim with Brecker with Andrews, Kirkland and Stern! This particular combination... Wow! What a treat! Now I have to see if there's more of this gig. Gratitude!♥️🙏🏼

A band of jazz heroes of my generation and so many of them gone now 😥

R.I.P. Jeff Andrews. You did so much for bringing the electric bass into jazz. We all owe you so much!

[fuyufuyu]

I was there. The ticket cost me $50 or something, definitely big money for a college student, but it was way more than that. My mind was totally blown. Thank you Louis for sharing this video.

Kenny Kirkland!
Man, I love Brecker's sound during this time!

Listening to brecker is like being at school

I saw this band in NYC but with Adam Nussbaum on drums. Nussbaum broke a snare head at the beginning of a tune and still killed it! RIP Kenny Kirkland, such a badass!

BRECKER IS A MUSICIAN THAT BRINGS THE JAZZ TO THE HIGH COMPLEXITY AND THE MOST INFLUENCIAL MUSIC OF THE NEXT CENTURY....

This is a dream line up. What a great video. Thanks!!

Very in the moment playing by everyone. From the very first note, Mike's solo is so fresh and inspired. I think this is one of the earlier gigs doing this material with his band, maybe that had a little to do with it to. Man, Kenny's piano solo is off the hook.

Thank you, Louis, for sharing more of your treasures with us! Brilliant!

[Ichiban]

[benjaminshoe]

The Giant Steps lick at around 5:04. Awesome! 🤣

[ymyccwq]

Transcendence musically. All bad asses.

Pentatonic shifts outside of key centre behind you: "Nothing personnel kiddo"

[PabloVestory]

WOW, Thank you!
Could be anywhere more tracks from this gig or this line-up?

Is that Omar Hakim on drums? I think it is.
