WOW!!!.......2002-07-09

This is just an absolute JEWEL. Zappa fans will recognize Terry Bozzio in addition to the Brecker brothers themselves, and MAN, what a combo! Michael Brecker just shreds on every solo, and Randy finds nuances with the "electric trumpet" that have never been heard before or since. Some will want this for the novelty of the electric tenor sax and trumpet, but there are FINE examples of modern BeBop solos here, over a high-powered rhythm section that kicks and jumps all over everything the soloists lay down. This is the kind of rhythm section that can make ANYBODY sound good, but the Brecker brothers talent is unmatched; a combination that presents an order of magnitude. Bass players NEED to hear Neil Jason, and guitar players NEED to hear Barry Finnerty on this. Blistering tight unison lines will prove once again why Zappa saved his most intricate horn passages for these guys, and why you won't hear them at tempo with anybody else. I sincerely hope for more of this largely unexplored flavor of jazz. I haven't found anything else that quite measures up to this.

Wow.......2000-07-29

Who said white boys can't play funk. This album just blows your mind with an explosion of Brecker Brother magic!A must for any fan of this studio duo.

Absolutley Spectacular.......1999-06-13

The Brecker Brothers are truly exceptional musicians. Their musical genius kows no limits. Every time I hear "Some Skunk Funk" it gets better and better. I never tire of that great song.

Sensationally sexy!.......1999-02-01

Randy and Michael Brecker are extraordinary musicians who favorably omit the arrogance and pretentiousness of theory trained songwriting. I don't think any other cats can be THIS accessible!

Harvest Box Set: A Fantastic Overview.......1999-08-08

Anyone looking to explore the early years of progressive music need look no farther then this fine 5CD box set. Representing the years 1969-1976 this set is one of the most well put together sets attempted by a major label to put into perspective it's own history. Housed in an oversized book format, the 120 page booklet enclosed features many rare photos of the Harvest rouster as well as an extensive overview. The music inside speaks for itself with many fine moments from Kevin Ayers, Roy Harper, Sid Barrett,Barclay James Harvest, Pete Brown, ELO, The Pretty Things, Deep Purple,Babe Ruth, Gryphon and many more. Highly recomended for all those interested in the formative years of progressive music and it's evolving influance on future music, popular and otherwise.

Smoking!!!.......2007-05-11

Listening to this album was almost as good as sitting in the "Bottom Line" club in New York, digging it live again! Ah the memories! My personal condolences to the Brecker family... I too will miss Michael and his music very, very much.

UNBELIEVABLE!!!.......2006-09-11

This is the most incredible music ever, no BB album has surpassed this. A live album with Terry Bozzio having just joined the band after leaving Frank Zappa. The version of Some Skunk Funk is worth the whole price. Phenomenal! Will leave you out of breath and panting for more. One studio track kind of ok, an attempt at top 40, but the rest is - wow! Line up is guitar, bass, drums and Breckers. Randy plays some organ and uses a harmonizer to add 5ths and 4ths to his trumpet, so it sounds like more than just 2 horn players. Just hard to imagine what this would have been like to see live. Too bad it wasn't a double album when it was released in the late 70's. I want more of this!

ENCORE!!!!!.......2002-03-13

"Heavy Metal Be-Bop" is a land mark fusion recording. The first tune is from the studio and the rest are recorded from a smoking live set. "East River" is the studio tune and is vocal. The song has a funky bassline and is fun but compared to the rest of the disc it is out of place. The rest of the disc is unreal. The band consists of Neal Jason on bass, Barry Finnerty on guitar, Terry Bozzio on drums, Michael Brecker on Sax, and Randy Brecker on trumpet. "Inside Out" is a Randy Brecker tune and Randy, Michael and Barry all have some fun with it. The tune is basic (For the Brecker Brothers) and they all play over the groove set by Bozzio/Jason. "Some Skunk Funk" is another Randy Brecker composition and a classic. This is one of the funkiest tunes that I have ever heard and the brothers play some of the greatest horn lines that you will ever hear. There are also some unison lines and the power of the band is on par with metal. "Sponge" is another funky piece and it features the explosive drumming of Bozzio. The band trades fours throughout Bozzio's rhythmic wizardry. "Funky sea, Funky Dew' is a Michael Brecker extravaganza. He takes the studio version and improves on it. Not only is his playing during the song great but there is a solo at the end that is amazing and then he is joined by just the bass of Jason which elevates him to a level that is beyond words. "Squids" is the closer to this set and has the brothers ,once again, playing over some serious funk. This disc is one of the greatest I've ever heard and is the greatest Horn orientated fusion disc ever. I only wish that there were more than five live songs but those five are worth any price. As highly recommended as anything can be.

Shock treatment to your ears.......2004-05-15

Metallic funk sound and infectious groove is the key to this album.BB know how to mix the spice of the good music resourcefully.All you need is to open your mind,and forget your prejudice to the jazz music.This kind of music cannnot be categorized, though, there is something you cannot miss.This sound statement made by BB is the great monument you must bear in mind.I recommed this to all the high energy hybrid fusion die-hard fans.The high light scene is the great dynamics made by Barry finnerty,terry Bozzio,randy brecker,Neil jason,.These guys are crazy enough to make this session blast.You have to wear helmet to ride this hell-like jetcoaster.Join the Army and free yourself.

This album is amazing.......2000-09-23

If you like jazz-funk-fusion, there is no better cd than heavy metal be-bop. The band plays so tight on this that it is incredible. This is a must have for any fusion fan.
