- Was playing the tune Boogie Shoes on a recent gig and the vocalist tapped me on the shoulder and told me to play half of a chorus. I had never played over this tune before so it was cool to get it on film! #shorts #musicianlife #saxophone

Singer: "Alright! 😄"
True meaning: "Shut up, soloist."
LOL
Good way to get him to cut off lmao
🤣🤣
but wasnt the vocalist the one who tapped him on the shoulder?
@@dank980 Yep, he told him when to start, and gave him a cue to stop
You didn't get the appropriate applause for your solo, so here you go: 🙌👏🥳
I appreciate the kind words!
Right. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
👏👏👏👏👏
👏👏👏👏👏@@FoolishFrankie
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏WHOOOOO!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
that advanced vocalist cue giving you the "alright" as a heads up that he's coming in, and you nail the merge back to his vocals. Love to see professionals at work.
Yea that was mesmerising
Yessir that was smooth.
It was the end if the measure anyway though… It couldn’t have not ended
@@NSTLgngThey could've gone around again. That cue was to let everyone know they weren't.
@@NSTLgngOf course it could have continued. It was half the chorus.
Lmao he gave you 2 seconds to come up with a solo and you nailed it. Then his cue to stop and your transition back was perfect.
Thank you so much!
...people don't take time to come up with solos before they do them, LOL.
@@RDR911true yea, however frankie said he had never solo'd over this chart, meaning he hadnt practiced soloing over it. im pretty sure thats what the commenter meant
As funny as it is to see how genuinely nervous he looked, it was impressive that he managed to ad lib that sax in. Sounded like it was always there.
Thank you🙏🏻
Nah bro he wasnt nervous, it was just unexpected. He was asked and he delivered beautifully 👌👌
Homie always looks nervous or worried but that’s just the way his confidence looks cause when he looks like that he does his best work so it’s just the way he looks when he’s hella concentrated.
Holy shit that transition from playing the solo to stopping it was so smooth. That was indeed a very attentive ear lol
Ahh thanks I definitely was trying to make sure I didn't step on the vocalist!

To be fair it was half a chorus

That guitar at the beginning was righteous
Bruh I didn't notice until your comment. Ripped it
Your tone is so smooth and AAH I love it so bad, sincerely a fellow sax
Thank you so much!🙏🏻
It’s like whipped cream on my ear drums
Lisa Simpson would approve of those Blues licks. Also a fellow sax 🎷
His tone is like a warm weighted blanket on a chilly afternoon. So good.
As a steel tongue drum and trombone player, I concur
My anxiety could never 😭
Don’t be fooled I was nervous 😅
You anxiety doesn’t play an isturment
Same but I've been put on the spot and have had to improvise
Your anxiety wont hold you back as much once you've developed enough skill to be comfortable
@@brown9671 He meant his anxiety wouldn't allow him to do this successfully.
That elongated note when they started singing..
👍💯
OMG I WANT A FULL SONG THIS IS SOOO CATCHY!!!
It's such an amazing skill to play something that good out of nowhere! You're an inspiration for me, keep it up!
Edit: Y'all gotta chill I get that it's literally his job, but it is a skill you have to learn and I was just complimenting it. He also has other videos in which he improvises flawlessly.
Aww I really appreciate the kind words🥺🙏🏻
"Out of nowhere" yeah he just picked up the sax and suit for free, right place right time too. As if he wasn't ready for this exact thing!
@Yours friend Yeah, I mean the fact that he's able to spontaneously improvise a solo 3 seconds after being told to do so.
@@gickygackers who pissed in your cereal this morning
@@FoolishFrankie u are crazy good
It's a blessing playing with actual musicians who can throw things off of each other like this. The band took the song back from him perfectly
🙌🏻🙏🏻
People are going to live without knowing what a musician sounds like. Great video.
Thanks for listening🙏🏻
please i need this as a full song
that was an epic solo dude! I hope that one day I will be able to play like you.
Ahh you’re too kind! Keep practicing you’ll get there!🙏🏻
@@FoolishFrankiebtw, what the song name ?
@@HAIKAL_28The song is Boogie Shoes by KC & The Sunshine Band
You've got this Gumboylaa! Best of luck! 🍀
I am a percussionist, so I am not completely sure if the beginning of that second bar was a growl or not, but that literally gave me goosebumps, amazing solo
Ahh it was you’re right!! I appreciate it🥺🙏🏻
@@FoolishFrankieyeah dude felt that one in my nuts and guts
My name is Peyton to but with an E
@@JustifyTheseHeathens YEAH PAYTON GANG RISE UP
@@paytondollins5461 P gang rise up
the “WOO” was so crisp
You could see the joy in his eyes and how proud he was during that whole solo . Well played my friend sounded great! 👏
It’s a work in progress🙌🏻🙏🏻
As a former player of said saxophone, I love how you took what was done, and in the opening, you added that growl to make sure that the crowd knew that you were taking your moment to extend the solo section of this song, and matching the grove laid by the guitarist. Well done!
Thank you so much!
This is what separates the good players from the pros. Excellent improv!
Thank you so much!!🙌🏻
This is what some people don't get when they think a live wedding band is too pricey, or not worth paying a cover band to fill a 3 hour venue slot..this is just a hint of howuch we gotta practice in order to adapt, play with(not over) and improvise when needed. Takes a long time and a Lotta discipline. And that solo was absolutely juicy man
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Damn! That tone is amazing, and the growling it top notch
I appreciate it!!🙏🏻
This was so on point and sure was music to my ears!! 🙌🎶
🙌🏻🙏🏻
Sick shit bruh, if it was me id just play scale up and down lmao
Lmao same
Same
right💀
That's more or less what he's doing with the blues scale lol
😂
ok this was utterly polished, cant stop listening on loop
🥺🥺
wow a reply from the guy himself! thanks for your lovely content man, interesting stuff to learn about music and some sick tidbits of sax magic!
That's damn near the best feeling you'll ever have. An unplanned solo that you pulled off smooth.
Had that once in high school jazz band on the Alto sax. Good times
Uh… this is amazing. Absolutely amazing.
I appreciate it!🙏🏻🙏🏻
Someone help me stop this loop. Its too good
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Can't stop it too, we're helpless i guess it's unstoppable.
@@salvador5282 months have passed and I'm still caught in the loop! I haven't eaten and drunk properly in weeks 😭😭😭
same here... hahahahaha
@@sirbughunter Dude I gotta get to work and I'm sitting here listening to a saxophone!
There is not another instrument that sounds so cool as a sax.
the wooh! made it sassier😌
Handled it very well!
It’s a work in progress!🙏🏻
How many times have you watched this?
Me:yes
🥺🙏🏻
The blues is all about feeling. Nice work
Bro is talented asf
This is a great example for not being scared to solo -
To me, a guitarist, you sounded perfectly fine and really good. Whereas I could hear one or two mistakes in the guitar solo and also some smaller stuff that you wouldnt pick up on normally like pick dig sound.
Or the half-muted note when you accidentally forget to press a fret down all the way
I think the guitar solo is the best part about this video lol. This guy is great but to insult others because you wanna fangirl his cock into your mouth is a little much.
That buzz was amazing 🤩
Thank you!!
this is such a great display of music craft. being able to just ad-lib and improv something on the fly like this is incredible. I hope to get to this level of music theory and knowledge some day
🙏🏻🙏🏻
It's dope hiw he was just "okay, cool" then absolutely killed it!
😂🙏🏻
This is why learning to improvise by ear is so important. You can use your prior knowledge to fill in the gaps seamlessly and really spice things up by putting your own spin on a part
been playing tenor for 3 months now, and seeing your shorts here and there has been wonderful :>
playing brings me a lot of joy, i'd love to be able to live off of it, but there are a lot of unknowns. though im fairly young and have a few years to figure it out, these tiny bits of knowledge ive been able to get from watching your vids are great
can't see myself playing spontaneously in a live setting like this just yet, but im working towards it! thank you for the motivation, im sure many others can share my sentiment. keep it up :D
Ahh this is so awesome I’m really glad I can inspire you! I appreciate you watching and the kind words🙏🏻🙏🏻
I've been playing tenor for two years but I'm still surprised at what I learn all the time
I’ve been playing tenor for 2 months and preparing for my jazz concert in a month, it just makes me happy to see more of them man 😭
I don’t know music, so i’m always amazed how people can sync with each other so well
It's a love, hate, heart pounding, but exhilarating experience to have to solo on the spot. Especially on a track you've never heard. Keep it up! I miss the stage.
Mastering the ability to recognize the scale for safe notes is substantially beneficial as you can see here, improvising using knowledge ❤🙌 improvising can be learned, and it feels wonderful knowing what you’re doing lol
Bro is cooking🔥🔥🔥
Man I love your channel. It's the first time here on youtube someone catches both how incredibly satisfying but also totally unnerving live music can be.
Much love🙏🏻
And THIS is why we practice our jazz scales, my friends.
Tbh I don't think people should connect scales with improvisation
@@FoolishFrankie that’s fair, on other instruments it’s kind of a must though!
@@FoolishFrankie hope you know I meant this as a sign of respect!
Wow, you absolutely killed it man. You are crazy talented
I appreciate the kind words!
Professionals at work! Great solo and I would’ve been enjoying watching the guitarist shred too 😂
Love this song man made my day ❤
I never thought I would call a sound sexy
🙌🏻🙏🏻
You should hear the noises your mom makes, bud.
As a trumpet player, I am shocked. Good for you man
Thank you so much!
The growl really got me💗
Epic Improv, my guy.
this is the most relatable thing as a saxophone player, you killed it man
Thank you so much!
And poking out of the pocket is the all important tin whistle. 10/10, sounds great
🙏🏻🙏🏻
That growl, chef's kiss
Now thats a freestyle
Well played, blended right into the song
love this account, professional musicians at work are always fun to listen to!
Much love🙏🏻
If you ever do this again, you could possibly reference Stevie Wonder's "Signed Sealed Delivered". Sounds like the chord progressions are very similar
BEAUTIFUL! You played it like you've been practicing for months 😍
That transition from pne to the next is INNSAAANNE
*Absolutely kills the improv solo like a beast with excellent phrasing and dynamics*

日本人です！サックスを勉強しています！素敵なソロでファンになりました！これはなんて曲ですか？！？！
Boogie shoesだと思います！
ありがとうございます！！
That was beautiful!
Wow! Those growls are spot on!
🙏🏻🙏🏻
This was so great 👍🏻👏🏼👏🏼
I appreciate it!
Sounds amazing great job 👏👏👏
Thank you so much!!
its actually well executed 👏🏼👏🏼
"Without embarrassing myself too bad" but was ABSOLUTELY KILLING IT!!!
Good job bro! Great sound, riff, melodic line and tone! Keep up the good works! Super cool stuff there!
Much love🙏🏻🙏🏻
Nice improvisation. Love that "woo!"
LOL Vince is awesome!
Love how adaptable you are and how you just go with the flow. This is how the best musicians are imo. Talented enough to adapt and also humble enough not to hog the limelight, knowing they’re just one piece of the whole puzzle.
Thank you so much this is a huge compliment to me🥺🙏🏻
I’m not a musician, but I love a live band that can play and improv off each other while making it sound and *feel* like it was all rehearsed. The singer gave you the proper cues and you were able to squeeze that solo in with no hiccups at all. You nailed it, so props for that!
I appreciate it!!🙏🏻
I love the screamy sound on saxophone.
You give such good
Insight to how playing live works. The looks and taps and nods. The fails and the anxiety. It’s spot on.
People think it’s all calm and smooth but in reality shit goes off the rails all the time. You really capture that with ya videos.
Thank you I try to!!🙏🏻
That was so smooth, well done
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Sounded so smooth!! Loved it❤❤
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Literally just listened like 50 times. Dope
I appreciate it!🙌🏻🙏🏻
it's always the extremely hard working and talented people like this who are humble and say "didn't embarass myself too bad"... while the people with no talent are arrogant. you nailed the solo, great job
I appreciate the kind words🙏🏻
so much soul, dont hold back on your instincts man, killin it
You are so humble, that solo rocked!
Thanks for the kind words🙏🏻
“It’s basically a blues” is not a thought, it’s a relief for musicians worldwide
That growl tho 👌🏽✨EXQUISITE ✨👌🏽
I love how you always listen for everything in a song in case you need to play suddenly, I’d just miss everything
I used to play the tenor saxophone back in high school
That looks effortless!
It’s crazy how smart and quick you gotta be up there while also PUSHING OUT AIR. Mad props bro, you a baaad dude lol
8th grade trumpet, AWESOME SOLO seriously I learned some new rhythms from this solo that I want to try sometime in my schools jazz band
Im pretty alright with coming up with melodies but on the spot improv is just insane work, its fucking awesome.
That was awesome, I just love how you handle things on the fly. The mark of a true master musician. You my friend have the goods
Play it loud and proud. If you fuck up, claim that too. Rip that shit like how you dance when no one is watching. Your sax has soul, but it needs you to give it all your heart. Never be afraid to be great when you get to shine.
That was actually pretty good👊🏼😎
🤣🤣🤣 dude your eyes say it all!!! But you pulled it off!!! 👍🏽👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I appreciate that
Bro did count bars while improvising and actively listening for others in the band.
Maybe after lots of years it becomes as natural as walking, but for me is still like dark magic
The way he perfectly gets in that growl🔥🔥🔥
Flawless 10/10 playing with 3 seconds notice
I appreciate the kind words🙏🏻
that growl is everything
