Brecker is Jewish as well mate, how does that affect who plays the best solo anyway? And also you are saying that three of the greatest saxophonists since Trane need to do some longtones and work on their pentatonics...you must be joking or out of your mind. And there is no such thing as a best solo when you get to their level.

great skill but I feel this monotone thing where it all sounds the same which bores me, but brecker, is the only tone that sticks out to me, and its nice, you can have all the skill in the world but to me you gotta have the tone.

i hate this kind of competition... putting too much technique in a short time. they are all very good players. the have all their own skills and style. brecker is (oviously) the fastest, but sometimes he played too monotone (especially after he didn't get the top notes:) although amazing unplayable lines. for me and for this peace lovano

Michael Brecker out classes and out plays both of them in a suit while hardly breaking a sweat! I love it.

sounded a bit like So What at times.

Thats because Impressions and So What are both over the same 2 changes...

Lieb & Brecker are playing the horn parts to 'So What' behind Lovano---same changes----why not? Takes away some of the monotony of solo---next solo----next solo-----
