Rance Allen, from Monroe Michigan, with older brother Tom on drums and younger brother Steve on bass recorded their first record and won a talent contest in Detroit and were subsequently signed to Stax's Gospel Truth label in 1971. After four albums Rance signed to Capitol and made his most highly acclaimed album 'Say My Friend'. It was produced by the Mizell Brothers (responsible for iconic albums on Donald Byrd, Bobbi Humphrey, Gary Bartz and Johnny Hammond). 'Reason To Survive' and 'Peace Of Mind' were the two singles, and both these 7' versions have been impossible to find. Original copies are expensive and extremely sought after. Expansion can now deliver both A sides back to back remastered from the original tapes in all their glory. The full album is available on CD from Soul Brother Records.

October 18, 1987 was a very special day for the two brothers - and star
jazz musicians - Michael Brecker and Randy Brecker
For years both had conquered the stages of the world together with their band
The Brecker Brothers and earned the reputation of being among the world's
leading jazz musicians on their instruments, the saxophone and the trumpet. On
that evening in the legendary Hamburg factory, both were on stage together for
the first time, each with their own band. 'Live at Fabrik Hamburg 1987' features
the top- class ensemble: Randy Brecker (trumpet), Bob Berg (saxophone), David
Kikoski (piano), Joey Baron (drums) and for the first time at the beginning of his
career Dieter Ilg (bass).
The other recording that features: Michael Brecker (saxophone), Mike Stern
(guitar) Jeff Andrews (bass), Adam Nussbaum (drums) & Joey Calderazzo (keys)
is available on a separate LP2. You will find both concerts together on the 2CD
set.
Quite simply historic concerts at a historic venue.
Randy Brecker writes about it: "These concerts were many years ago, and we
both were on long Euro tours of one nighters, so I think we both tried to put on the
best show we could, to outdo the other (in a good way!) Amazing to me how at
that point in time we were on different paths, I'd had that band with Berg, Kikoski,
Ilg and Joey Baron, for a while, acoustic, more "straight ahead" as we say, while
Mike was on uncharted territory with a new band...this might have been their first
Euro tour so the competition was on, at one of our favourite places to play:
'Fabrik' in Hamburg!...So let the games begin!"

Geboren in Ipswich, England, als Sohn eines Vaters, der beim Militär war, und einer Opernsängerin, verbrachte Bartees Leon Cox Jr. eine bewegte Kindheit, bevor er sich schließlich in Mustang, Oklahoma, niederließ. Bartees spielte in diversen Hardcore-Bands in Washington D.C. und Brooklyn, während er in der Regierung von Barack Obama und später in der Umweltbewegung arbeitete. Seitdem er seinen Weg als Solokünstler eingeschlagen hat, hat Bartees Strange zwei hochgelobte Platten in kurzer Folge veröffentlicht: eine EP, die Songs von The National neu interpretiert ("Say Goodbye To Pretty Boy", 2020) und sein Debütalbum "Live Forever" (2020). Während sein Debütalbum sich als persönliche Landkarte der Orte, die den Musiker geprägt haben (Flagey Brussels, Mustang Oklahoma) darstellte, stehen dieses Mal die Personen im Fokus, die Bartees am nächsten stehen und seine Reise bis hier hin mit ihm bestritten haben. Gleichzeitig hinterfragt sich der aufstrebende Musiker darauf stetig, um nicht seine eigene Herkunft zu vergessen. Somit zelebriert er auf 10 Songs die eigene Vergangenheit, richtet sich gen verheißungsvolle Zukunft und genießt den Augenblick.

Gather your loved ones, Together is here. Duster's fourth album is a 13-song exploration of comfortable, interplanetary goth. A sonic vaseline of submerged guitars, solder-burned synths, and over-driven rhythm tracks. "I know people say, `Oh Duster music so sad, we've even said it ourselves before," Clay Parton said. "But it's a lot more like absurdism than nihilism."
