A stone classic from The Brecker Brothers – working here at a new level for 70s jazz fusion!

No heavy metal here – just tight and funky jamming from the mighty Brecker Brothers!

This was Brel's last album before his death, and it's an oft-overlooked piece of work that's fantastically different from his better-known 60's oevre, but also every bit as great as that stuff.

Repackaging of Brel's 1967 LP – featuring some of his lesser known work from the late 60s, set to arrangements by longtime accompanist Francois Rauber.
