Brewster's Rooster is an album by English saxophonist John Surman with guitarist John Abercrombie, bassist Drew Gress, and drummer Jack DeJohnette, recorded in September 2007 and released on ECM in 2009.[1]
The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars, stating, "Brewster's Rooster is another high point in Surman's career. This studio band is as sympathetic as his working road unit, and his willingness to place the tradition in the context of his more contemporary, sometimes ambiguous harmonic explorations reveals the roots, shoots, and branches of his art and discipline."[2]
