Now You See It… (Now You Don’t) is Michael Brecker's third album as a leader. It was recorded at the Power Station in New York City.
Reception
AllMusic awarded the album with 4 stars and its review by Scott Yanow states: "Most of the originals (either by Brecker, Beard, or producer Don Grolnick) project moods rather than feature strong melodies, but Michael Brecker's often-raging tenor makes the most of each opportunity".[3]
Artwork
The album cover is based on a woodcut by the Dutch artist M. C. Escher called Sky and Water I (1938).
