Any Brecker fanatic that plays sax should own this!, June 5, 1999
This review is from: Michael Brecker: Tenor Saxophone (Paperback)
This is a high-quality transcription book. Carl Coan did a wonderful job of accurately capturing every nuance to the solos including correct chord changes, articulation and false fingerings. The two-page alternate/split/multiphonics fingering chart is worth the price alone.
Solos in the book are: Cajun, Chime This, Don't Try this at Home, Escher Sketch, Funky Sea Funky Dew, Inside Out, Itsbynne Reel, Never Alone, Night Flight, Not Ethiopia, Original Rays, Peep, Safari, Sea Glass, Song for Barry, Straphangin', Sumo, Take a Walk and Wakaria.
The only negative I have about this book is that the notation is fairly large which causes lots of page turns. But, the accuracy of these transcriptions is outstanding.
