Steps Ahead,Michael Brecker,Mike Mainieri/NY,USA 1984 2Shows

It was held at “7th Avenue South,” a famous night club in Manhattan, New York, where the Brecker brothers, Michael and Randy Brecker, were once involved in management and was said to be the home of New York’s top musicians, including the Brecker Brothers. Steps Ahead’s September 28, 1984 early show featuring Mike Mainieri and Michael Brecker, keyboardist Warren Barnhart, drums Peter Erskine, and bassist Tom Kennedy sounds like a studio recording. It’s a pity that the sound of Peter Erskine’s drums is slightly off, but the sound source was carefully remastered by the label and recorded for more than 1 hour and 40 minutes on a high-quality sound board directly connected from a vivid PA desk. , Mike, Warren, and Kennedy’s sounds are clearly captured in high quality. From the original master of the so-called “Erskine Tapes”, in which Peter records most of the live performances he participates in for recording purposes, the label’s unique, superbly high-quality stereo sound is so vivid that it feels like you are listening to it from the front row of the stage. A two-disc set that has been carefully remastered and completely recorded for over an hour and a half.Following the “early show” at New York’s Bottom Line on June 20, 1984, this time the long-awaited show will be performed at the same venue on the same day. The “Late Show” was recorded on the original master of “Erskine Tapes” with the label’s own careful remastering for over 1 hour and 30 minutes, and is a coupling recording of two performances that will be irresistible to fans.
