YOUR COMMENTS ON Michael Brecker

Not one comment on the BRECKER BROTHERS' MICHAEL?? They were pretty good musicians, and MICHAEL was an excellent SAX player. I remember them on POUSSEZ, and watched them back up ESTHER PHILLIPS in 1975 in New York City at REFLECTIONS. They were great. God Bless you.
