thnx Ames!

@@허성택피리영감 thank you!

Thank you very much.

@VIPPat since I play most of these by ear, I just search the song title followed by "karaoke" in RUclips. Results vary, but I usually find something that works well enough.

@@eugesounds I'm still learning to play by ear having to depend on music more often than not. But, I find it interesting that you use karaoke versions as I use them too especially a song I know well. BTW, I read your blog on Tumblr. We have so much in common

@VIPPat I just listened to your Baker Street...I get to play that one with Captain and Camille on many shows. We stretch it out a little bit, but it's a crowd favorite for sure. I like the way you fill up the horn, keep it going!

@VIPPat thank you for listening! I've been playing since 1970 and I'm currently 65 (this vid is a few yrs old). I admire you for learning at 73, so keep it up! My advice is to play often, imitate the sounds you admire, and play your favorite songs by ear. Cheers!

TYVM for listening - cheers from Dallas.

@2009carlini first of all thank you for listening & keep playing! I simply used a karaoke track for this one (there are lots of options). I played the melody by ear. It's a great way to work on "singing" through your horn! Cheers from Dallas.

Thank you!

Thanks for listening!

Hey thanks for listening!

I believe you are correct! Thanks for visiting :)

Correct, I interviewed him when he came to visit my employer in the early 90s and test play some reeds, the mpc he had was an older Dukoff 8 or 9, I think 9, I didn't notice a serial number but he'd had someone put in a patch on the bite plate. I didn't think to ask him if the internal chamber was worked on. Arnold Brilhart was in the office that day and sat in on the interview with me, afterwards Arnold took us all to lunch. We had a very enjoyable time. David was so nice and gracious, before he left he took the time to walk around and introduce himself to the office staff and I think he brought some CDs and gave them to these employees, who were absolutely blown away that this huge star was so friendly. In the last five yrs, I noticed he seemed frail, and people were commenting that he had to be assisted to get onstage, his bookings slowing down, and a subtle change in tone and energy on his late recordings, that something was wrong health wise. He was a rather small frame guy, not tall, probably about 5'5", but his sound was so big. R.I.P.

@@delightschwartz2155 Hey Delight, thank you so much for your reply. I was actually a trombone player with funk band when I decided to switch to sax. We were playing on Maui and I had bought an old King alto from our bass player. I learned to play that alto by retreating during the day to a stand of thick trees far away from the hotel we were playing and staying at (so people wouldn't complain of a dying animal in the hotel that needed to put out of it's misery...Lol!). I would listen to David Sanborn's Hideaway album on cassette tape and learned the song "Carly's song". That is literally how I taught myself sax. I love playing tenor and soprano but am mainly a singer. Maybe I am attracted to Mr. Sanborn's music so much because his sound is so expressive, like someone singing. Thanks again for your lengthy reply. I always loved Mr. Sanborn's music but never knew much about his personality. It sounds like his great music matched up with how he was a person. I know this is not always the case. Thanks again!

Was on the radio with Healy talking about Sanborn the other day - mentioned you and the mouthpiece story lol. I am disappointed in myself for not realizing how much of an influence he had on me and probably thousands of other sax-schmos our age!

Thanks for listening brother!

Thank you very much - ciao!
