Compuesta por tres hermanos y otros músicos experimentados, la banda de jazz The Heath Brothers se formó en 1975 y siguió grabando hasta 2009. El saxofonista, flautista, arreglista y productor Jimmy Heath (nacido en Filadelfia, Pensilvania, el 25 de octubre de 1926) tocó con una amplia gama de artistas, entre ellos Dizzy Gillespie y Miles Davis, antes de formar The Heath Brothers en 1975 con su hermano mayor, el bajista Percy Heath (nacido el 30 de abril de 1926) y su hermano menor, el batería Albert 'Tootie' Heath (nacido el 31 de mayo de 1935). ¡Acompañados por el pianista Stanley Cowell, grabaron su primer álbum Marchin' On! (1975) para el sello Strata-East Records, cofundado por Cowell, antes de reclutar al guitarrista Tony Purrone y al percusionista James Mtume para el siguiente álbum, Passin' Thru (1978), publicado por Columbia Records. En 1979, el tercer álbum, In Motion (1979), reforzado por una sección de metales que incluía a los trombonistas Jon Faddis y Wayne André y al trompetista Lew Soloff, vio cómo Albert Heath era sustituido temporalmente por Keith Copeland, y después por Akira Tana en Live at the Public Theatre (1980), Expressions of Life (1981) y Brotherly Love (1982). De vuelta a la batería, Albert Heath participó en los siguientes conciertos y grabaciones, empezando por la jam session organizada con la banda de Pat Metheny y el cuarteto de Dave Brubeck en el Midem de Cannes el 28 de enero de 1983. Los músicos volvieron a sus actividades personales antes de reunirse para las sesiones del álbum As We Were Saying... (1997), al que siguió Jazz Family (1998). La muerte de Percy Heath el 28 de abril de 2005, a la edad de 81 años, dejó a sus dos hermanos para continuar como dúo en Endurance (2009), el último álbum de estudio de la banda. En 2015, Jimmy y Albert Heath volvieron a reunirse en el álbum de composiciones del primero, Connecting Spirits, de la cantante Roberta Gambarini. A la muerte de Jimmy Heath el 19 de enero de 2020, a la edad de 93 años, le siguió el fallecimiento de Albert Heath el 3 de abril de 2024, a la edad de 88 años, tras la publicación de un álbum en directo inédito de los primeros tiempos, Paris 76 (2023).
