O’s Notes: Gary Meek is a polished saxophonist who usually plays supporting roles. He takes the leadership role assembling the band and composing all of the music for“Originals. Just a peek at the lineup suggests an outstanding recording! Producer/bassist Brian Bromberg, pianist Mitchell Forman and drummer Terri Lyne Carrington are a world-class rhythm section supporting Meek on tenor sax. Randy Brecker (t), Bruce Forman (g) and Airto Moreira (perc) are a few of the featured artists accentuating the action. They live up to their potential as individuals but even more so as a unit. The musicians feed off of each other in an enthusiastic, inspirational set.
