Review

Together with his saxophonist brother, Michael, trumpeter Randy Brecker was one of the forefathers of funk-fusion. With honorary other brother, David Sanborn, they combined be-bop technique, James Brown-rhythms, and rock & roll energy into an amalgam that would be a blueprint for a generation to come. For his previous outing, Hanging in the City, Randy Brecker adopted an alter ego--Randroid--in an attempt to inject hip-hop elements into his urban music-scape. For this recording, he returns to the more exciting, frenetic funk that he helped originate, restricting his trendiness to largely-programmed beats. Fortunately, George Whitty and Zach Danziger provide truly organic sounding grooves redolent of some of Jazzanova's best work. The title tune opens the set with baritone player Ronnie Cuber working out in the best Tower of Power tradition. Throughout, he and famed JB Fred Wesley add plenty of grease to the proceedings. There is no need for Randy Brecker to worry about his street cred; he and his brother defined urban music with records like this, providing the raw materials for the hip-hoppers to sample. --Michael Ross
