October 18, 1987 was a special day for the two brothers and exceptional musicians Michael and Randy Brecker. For years they have conquered the stages of the world with their band "The Brecker Brothers" and - Michael on the saxophone and Randy on the trumpet - have earned a place in the top league of jazz. That evening in the Hamburger Fabrik they were once again on the same stage, but not together, but for the first time each with their own band.
The series Live at Fabrik Hamburg 1987 contains two first-class ensembles. On the first release, Michael Brecker can be heard together with Mike Stern (guitar), Jeff Andrews (electric bass), Adam Nussbaum (drums) and Joey Calderazzo (keyboards). The second release is born to brother Randy and his comrades-in-arms Bob Berg (saxophone), David Kikoski (piano), Joey Baron (drums) and - for the first time and early in his career - Dieter Ilg (double bass).
"I think we both tried to play the best show we could and outdo each other (in a good way!). It amazes me what different paths we were on at the time. I had [. ..] this acoustic - as we say - rather 'straight ahead' band, while Mike and his new band moved into unexplored territory at the time. [...] The 'competition' was opened in one of our favorite concert halls - the 'Factory' in Hamburg."
- Randy Brecker
