4:06 my favorite part 😂😆😂
What happened tho well never know
The most anticipated crossover event since the MCU was created.
JAD Music i completely agree
lol I had to look up MCU...
I to 83 and I still think I should have done or should be doing this that or the other.
As a Hank Mobley since 1956
"without a public deadline, I live under a cloud of "should." I love this. Having a tribe of artists who help keep each other accountable has been a life saver for me. AWESOME talk, Jay. Safe travels back to France!
Thanks Wally
Thought you'd let your RUclips channel go by the wayside. Shame you've not been posting some videos too! ;)
Brian Billings took some time off for Dad duty, but I’m back every week in 2020!
"Focus on what you can do instead of what you can't do." Definitely a quote I needed to hear! Looking forward to the rest of the conversation!!
Lot's of great nuggets in there.
As an educator, musician and family man it was interesting to hear Bob talk about his time being split and having to make choices. It’s not easy but we put family first and do the best we can with our professional careers. Thanks for the video Bob and Jay!
Two of my fave Sax guys, together. How cool is this???
Listening to Bob talk about how he doubts himself, while watching Jay look on and shake his head in (apparent) disbelief, but then hearing him (Jay) say that it's great for everyone to see that we ALL feel that way... Yes. This.
This, without a doubt is the most relevant video I have watched in a very long time. It describes everything I struggle with as a father, teacher, player, writer, etc...thank you both for this.
I didn’t mean to make you feel bad. That’s perfect. I have two friends who have the same internal dialog as Bob. I didn’t know which one of them to sent this to first. The art world is full of people who were geniuses to the exclusion of all else. Like my two friends, Bob sounds like he’s doing a pretty good job managing his priorities while being at the top professionally. Fun to hear about.
He's not "a saxophone player, too". He's THE saxophone player! Met Bob and photographed him London. A true star and a real gentleman. I've ordered a signed copy of his 'A Message for Mobley' CD, and play it constantly on Spotify. It's genius! Just shows you he's such a modest man.
Bob is genuinely modest as are most great musicians I have the pleasure of knowing.
Oh man, i love Bob Reynolds blogs and this is such a good update on these, thanks for doing this !! Looking forward to see the next video !!
Hi Bob & Jay--Developing improvisors are often overwhelmed with the volume of licks, scales, etc., we could use in a given situation. I'm guessing you would both advise such a student to keep it simple--find a theme and develop it. Maybe the same applies to the mountains of video footage Bob has squirreled away. It feels like that's what works about Bob's VLOG--he makes sense out of the myriad of things that happens around him by playing off of the themes that emerge. Thank you both for all you do for the saxophone community!
“Silencing the inner editor”... I needed to hear that; my 15?year old little violin perfectionist needs to hear that too. Your Transparency is encouraging to struggling beginners ( me!) and gifted musicians ( my daughter!) alike!! Thanks!
That Hank Mobley album is on track to be one of my all time favourites! I can’t believe you have any self doubt about your playing Bob. What hope for us mortals!
Wow JayBob together...what a nice and joyful surprise. After watching this video I have come to the conclusion that we are all in the same beatiful, unique, sometimes frustrating, boat: The boat of Music!
We should all enjoy the rest of this great gift and adventure but probably, at the same time, are too busy with daily routines. We should follow as per Bob suggestion: focus on the things that can be done. May Music always be with us.
Thanks a million for sharing this one: awesome! Can't wait to see the remaining one.
I was single parent. I totally tuned everything else out, my focus had to become them. They were young, impressionable. I got a Music Degree and in summer swimming was our every day event. Me studying, them swimming. It worked!
That's so LA. Therapy session on the freeway.
Wait, that's not such a bad idea. Everyone stuck on the 405 needs therapy!
I have been listening to you and Bob for years both of you are favorites of mine
Bob (his youtube tutorial) taught me to put a towel on the saxophone while I practice! Fantastic ... When I don't want to bore the neighborhood!
Love this! Great to see you guys together! Great to see Bob again, after the recent vloglessness. I can really relate to the priorities' choices, as I took a break from playing sax for about 25 years to spend time with my kids, and then re-started playing sax after the youngest was grown up and left home.
Rob Stevens sounds like you made great choices spending time with the kids. Congratulations on deciding to play again too. Most people would not do that.
Another video in the catalog of Jay’s lessons in life...some great points. The title of the video is truthfully descriptive and superb! A pat on the back to you, Jay, for being the person who makes people feel comfortable and willing to relate their personal concerns on a public video.
Thanks Marv
I'm big fans of both of you guys and I appreciate you making this one, Jay. A great listen.
Bob Reynolds proves that you can have George Costanza-level neuroses and still be a master on the sax. He gives me hope lol.
This video blew my mind, would´ve never guessed it would be Bob Reynolds after the post on Insta.. This is so sick!
Totally relatable, as usual amazing videos ! Keep it up Jay you inspire us all.
“Focus on what you can do instead of what you can’t do.” - Bob Reynolds
Such an honest conversation, loved it
“Competing Priorities”... that’s the s***💯 Thanks for this Carpool video Jay! 🙏
This is good stuff to hear. Thanks for sharing.
Great blog! I’ve met Bob a couple of times. At the GroundUp Music Festival earlier this year and two years ago and also in England last year on his tour. He did a masterclass in Southampton followed by a concert the following evening. I think, generally, sax players are quite humble and Bob is no exception. Two sax nerds in a car. What’s not to love? At his concert in a Southampton there was a restored harpsichord o; the stage and his pianist couldn’t help including it on a song.
this is one of the great things about channels like these, it introduces you to new music.. Im not sax player, well i am, but i use the Roland electronic sax, a real sax is way too loud for where i live, but i do love real sax music, but my taste is not fast and twiddly, its cool and sultry type.. Never heard of Bob Reynolds, and the album a message for Mobley is absolutely fantastic.
Two of my favorite saxophone vloggers together! WOW! I just ordered the new CD Bob.
He is a giant. If you ever sow him playing you’ll know i’m right. A giant
He was not a mystery for me😂 Finally a video together!! Ty so much
Love this, thank you for putting this one on Jay 👍😎🎷
Wow! My favourite saxophone trainer and blogger together with my favourite saxophone player ever
Funny! I thought for a minute I was listening to my husband’s daily rant, he had ADD though. 😂😂
"living under a 'should cloud." Oh man, that hits home...
Such a great video and insight on focus. Choice and prioritize a must.
Cheers.
Great advice from Bob Reynolds. Thanks for posting this :-)
Thanks for posting this one. Bob has been one of my teachers and a great one he is.
This was awesome!
Mind blown! My two favorite RUclips player/instructors.
This is a great video Jay, it's so spontaneous and real. Thank you so much. If I'm allowed I'd say to Bob to try to build a team he can rely on to do all things he wants to do instead of trying to do everything by himself. We definitely miss de vlog man
I cut the part of the video where he talks about this. guess I shouldn't have. A team can only do some tasks. Everything creative needs to come from the creator...
I see Bob Reynolds, I click
Me too.
Thanks such a great inteview!
Great stuff Jay, I enjoyed the conversation.
"... the time has to constantly come from somewhere ..." -- yeah, this.
If I play sax if totally thanks to Bob
LOL! This was actually good...ramblings and all. There are 24 hours to work with. 5:30 am I'm up...15 minutes on Inversion table...shower/dress/blah blah. Hit the road at 7am, get to work at 8am, leave work most days at 6pm, home at 7pm. Need to eat, see dog and husband, practice (dog and husband hate the practice), get to bed at 10pm so I can do it all again. I don't watch tv but I do like to read. I always feel like 'I should be doing something else.' Thanks, guys! LOL
Seems the “Comedians in cars getting coffee”-format also works for saxophonists driving to recordings 😜 This also reminded me of the film Goodwill Hunting: Bob as an agonized Matt Damon, immaculately analyzing his own situation to the bone yet not able to break out of it, and Jeff as Robin Williams, just dropping the right questions here and there...Man, people will love you and your music REGARDLESS whether you post a video at 2am or not. Focus on your family and true friendships, they are the most valuable factors in your life. All the rest will pass.
I think the angst comes from having a drive or fundamental need to do many things. Too many projects that are somewhat important .
Thomas MacLean you are spot on and imho this is why a lot of people burn out nowadays. I have seen this happen quite a few times now to people that I really hold dear, and it is a very sad experience to see happen.
I hate when you're trying to be a film director and your saxophone playing career takes off! Good stuff. Good to know that established fine players struggle with carving out time to practice. I thought I had it bad with a very needy 22 month old puppy (and dishes and clogged bathtubs and everything else!) ;-)
I love bob Reynolds so much
Thank you!
King of Be Bop! « Experiments with not practicing at all », all too familiar. Thanks Jay
Thierry Martin 😂
2 FUCKING killer PLAYERS.....AWESOME!
Great! 🎷
Hey @BetterSax I ordered a Balam back strap per your recommendation and it’s arriving. I’m really excited about being able to play without strangling myself! Thank you for the recommendation and for the awesome content!!
Watch Jack's videos on how to adjust it. You're going to love it.
Include the children in the daily routine when home... it presents huge opportunity for you and the kids.
I yawned so hard my jaw cracked. My vibrato may never be right again. Thelma and Louise were more profound cruising around solving life's priorities.
Great meeting you, Jay, at the Isolo Cloudvocal booth at NAMM. Thanks for taking pictures with me and my friend. Hopefully, next time we will be able to speak for a few minutes.
Sorry, NAMM was pretty hectic for me. Great to meet you.
@@bettersax, hey I get it. Thanks for taking a couple of minutes. It was hectic for me, and I am just a retail store owner looking at new products and ones I have missed. Being a woodwind teacher, a performer and working with school music educators through my store I find your videos very informative as well as educational. I actually have my students watch your videos along with a few others here on RUclips to give them supplementary views and education. I wish I had RUclips when I was growing up and learning to play. Please keep up the great work.
Great video Jay. Always look forward to seeing your posts to RUclips and miss seeing Bob's. Saw him a few weeks ago at the Baked Potato and had a few minutes to say hi. Any chance we'll be seeing you at Inside:Outside some day?
Funny I talked to Bob Franchesini about this at NAMM. I'd love to hang in the woods and play saxophone all day for sure.
@@bettersax - oh, golly -- that would be a motivation for me to get over my fear of inadequacy and try to make it to the woods.
@@bettersax It's a blast. Hanging out in the woods with 60-70 amazing people who happen to also play saxophone. Beautiful location, no distractions, saxophone from morning to late at night.
@@debzfiedler6100 Don't let fear hold you back. There is a wide range of skill levels at the camp and zero judgement. Everyone is there to learn and enjoy the experience. I would highly recommend this to any saxophone player that has the time and means to attend. You won't regret it. Registration is open www.insideoutsideretreat.com/register
If you guys had jammed Dave Pollack into the back seat this would have been my trinity of favorite online sax players.....
Thanks
I’m waiting for you to visit the inside/outside sax retreat one year. ✌🏽🎵🎵🎷
dang thats sick
Every wind player's dream is to have a private practice space ^_^ The vlog was amazing for those of us who don't live in LA or in NY and don't share the same kind of network available. It was first hand experience from the next generation of experts (or Super Saiyan 2 for a DBZ reference :D). As you say, we all have the same amount of time in the day..what do you want to do with it?
If I were better at being productive, I wouldn't have been scrolling through my subscriptions on RUclips. LOL
hey jay can you make a video where you play two songs from the movie Back to the Future
"Music is something you want to make time for, but it always gets pushed aside for other "more important" things." Fortunately for me, I'm retired; so I can devote a lot of time to my alto saxophone, and all my other instruments. 😊 ♫ 🎻🎺 🎷🎸 et al
I need to see about getting signed up on his website. He is got a great site and I need to make the time,to be,part of it
It is nice you let Bob tell us why he isn't making videos without him having to edit it. The problems of success.
If I don't have a deadline then I just go practice sax for like 4 hours I am in sixth grade my director says I practice to long
Do a baritone saxophone review
Bob love the vlog. Always wondered how you afford the lifestyle but that's personal. My advice is to learn to delegate. Get some interns to help you out.
We discussed this a bit as well, but I didn't include it in the video. Assistants can only do so much. They can't play the saxophone for you and play with your kids...
wonderful. Thanks for sharing!
My advice: If what you are doing is with the blessing of your wife, then that is the right thing to do!
Pray and ask God to help you otherwise there are not enough hours in the day. Don't try to do too much in the day. Don't say I should be doing ----
God bless love your playing both of you! Enjoy. Bill. UK
Dr Metcalf has a nice ring to it hahaha
😂😂😂
4:06 I didn’t miss those grins! Ha Ha.
When is the sax giveaway winner gonna be announced ?
the winner was emailed, theres not going to be an announcement
I always post the winner on the contest page. I've contacted them via email.
🤟 #musiclife
Can I have a baritone saxophone
Never heard of him. Guess I'll look him up.
hahaha, I always thought ' when I retire I will play every day and have a great time'. As if
Bob should just hire someone to do his vlog for him. 🤷♂️
Jay. You could have asked him which make of razor he uses 🧔 then do a comparison 👨. LoL
Bob... I know why you choose not to hire an editor. But please, man. Reconsider!
Obviously you don't have to be a musician to have these same issues. 😢
Yep your right Brian. It’s a pretty common issue.
Dude sounds fantastic on his horn but he needs to smoke a doobie now and then...life will keep on keeping on no mater what ...
cute
He is such a good guy on many levels, but he will have a burnout sooner of later. 🙁
Oh god. Make it stop.
is this a therapy session or what?
