michael brecker was doing an overdub session around the late 80's. he does a pass and the producer says, "Great, but could you play harder?- really wail!!!" Apparently MB just nods his head and does another pass. The Prod says, "That's getting closer, but can you give it even more? I want it to sound like the Big Man- Clarence Clemens!". MB nods and says that he needs to really get the vibe, and could they dim the lights. the AE dims the lights and MB says, "No, man i need them totally off. You, know, get the vibe." lights go off, and they roll tape. when they get to the solo section all they hear is silence. tape stops, lights up. MB has left the building.
MB- one of the greatest.
