Brecker, a saxophonist, sideman and band leader, died in January. Tonight on WBAI-NY, 99.5 FM and via webcast (www.wbai.org [[The "Listen Now" icon on the upper right of the home page]) This takes place from 9 p.m. to 11 p.m. Eastern time.
From my friend Greg Thomas, comes this information: "In addition to performance examples over a quarter century span with Michael Brecker as a sideman and leader, we’ll hear his own voice in interviews, revealing a gentle and soulful man behind the astounding technique he displayed on tenor sax."
Special guests include:
· Alto saxophonist David Sanborn, long-time friend and colleague of Brecker, and
· Bret Primack, producer of a moving video tribute to Brecker on his Bird Lives videoblog. Bret also hosts the JazzVideoLand channel at YouTube.
