During 1975-82, Michael Brecker and his brother Randy regularly teamed together as the Brecker Brothers, generally playing R&B/funk with Randy's trumpet often electrified (a la Miles of a few years earlier) whie Michael stuck to hot licks on his John Coltrane-influenced tenor. Certainly the musicianship of their various bands (which often included David Sanborn on alto) was quite high, but the grooves and vamps were much closer to R&B than to jazz...This CD reissues music from at least five of the Brecker Brothers' albums, and the electronics (so up-to-date at the time) sound somewhat dated today. There are some strong moments on the best-of disc, particularly the ballad "Dream Theme."..The diehard Brecker Brothers fans will prefer to get the complete sessions on the original LPs, but this makes a nice sampler for casual fans.
