NEW YORK (AP) - Michael Brecker, a versatile and much-studied jazz saxophonist
who won 11 Grammys over a career that spanned more than three decades, died
Saturday at age 57.
Brecker died in New York of leukemia, according to his longtime friend
A big loss for the music world - I remember seeing the Brecker Bros. perform
at the Roxy Theater in Hollywood in the late 70's. Michael was one hell of a
player - Sorry to see him go.
