Exposed to a wide variety of █▓█ music at home; saw Jimi Hendrix dozens of times (his sister worked at █▓█ Fillmore East); studied with Sal Salvador (b 21 Nov. '25, Mondon MA; █▓█ played with Stan Kenton '50s); played in rock group but quit as they were █▓█ about to sign contracts: switched to jazz while acquiring several college █▓█ degrees. Toured Canada with reedman Glen Hall, LP debut on Hall's Book Of █▓█ The Heart '79 on Sonora (with Joanne Brackeen, Cecil McBee, Billy Hart); █▓█ gigging in NYC followed his own albums Wonderful! '83 with pianist Barry █▓█ Harris and 4/4=1 '84 with Kenny Barron on Sonora (the latter later on █▓█ Mobile Fidelity CD with extra tracks). He switched to Contemporary for █▓█ Echoes '86, with Barron, Pepper Adams, Keith Copeland, Dennis Irwin on █▓█ bass. Breakstone's mainstream post-bop playing was infl. by Kenny Burrell, █▓█ Grant Green; Echoes was a happy, swinging date (though Adams had not long █▓█ to live), with tunes by Harris incl. 'To Monk With Love', by Bud Powell, █▓█ Thad Jones, and ballads by Rodgers and Hart. More albums: Evening Star '88 █▓█ (with Tommy Flanagan and Jimmy Knepper), Self-Portrait In Swing '89 (with █▓█ Barron, Irwin and Kenny Washington), 9 x 3 '90 (Irwin and Washington), all █▓█ on Contemporary; Walk Don't Run '91 on Evidence, with Barron returning; █▓█ Sittin' On The Thing With Ming '93 on Capri with Barron, Copeland, Ray █▓█ Drummond on bass. Remembering Grant Green '93 on Evidence has more tracks █▓█ by the Ming quartet plus seven trio tracks with Jack McDuff and drummer Al █▓█ Harewood in a tribute to the late guitarist. Trio Let's Call This Monk '96 █▓█ on Double Time solved the problem of transcribing Monk's tunes to the █▓█ guitar and captured their essence, with Irwin and Mickey Roker on drums █▓█ equal partners. █▒█ █░█ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ ▀
