    Mindi, I'm a professional sax player (going on 40 years now). It was so tough coming up as a female at my age. Thanks for setting the bar high and making huge strides. Your playing AND singing are amazing and I adore you. Keep on bringing us fabulous music. LOVE this tune!!!

    Needless to say that I'm blown away by this young woman. And pleasantly surprised with this no nonsense jam when compared to her other videos that I could only describe as funky jazz. I need to hear more of these videos

    My 13 year old plays the tenor and she’s the star of her middle school wind ensemble and jazz band. Made 1st chair region band. Thank you Mindi for giving her someone who looks like her that she can look to for inspiration. You’re amazing!!

    What an awesome sax player. I had the pleasure of hearing her live a few months ago. If she ever comes to your area, don't pass up the chance of a lifetime to hear this incredible saxophonist.

    I AM BLOWN AWAY!!! Fantastic! You are without a doubt the most astonishing saxophonist I’ve ever heard in my life! All the musicians are fantastic and I’ve never seen anything like this performance!!! Unbelievable I just can’t tell you how incredible you are!!! Guitarist also blew my mind and the drums sound so awesome! I think you sent me to orbit with this song! My name is Kimberly and I am a percussionist and songwriter singer and I just love this music! You rocked my world 😍❤️ I was looking for what type of saxophone to buy and that’s when I came across your mouth piece and looked you up because I was thinking about starting the saxophone LOL but man, I’ve never heard anybody play as good as you do!

    Never been a big sax lover when it is the lead instrument. Is kind of like drinking down chocolate syrup. The first couple of slugs are good but after that, it gets to be too much really fast. But when the sax is being used in songs like Baker Street, Careless Whisper, and Year of the Cat it is very tasty and leaves you wanting more.

  • @hifitommy
    @hifitommy 6 лет назад +1

    yes, very good in fact but correct me if i am wrong, she has captured David Sanborn's style quite handily. it's too bad he went the way of SMOOV JAZZ but then he won't die a pauper like so many jazz greats have.
    being bolstered by Bonamassa is a nice enticement though. her singing is pretty good too, way better than Lyn Stanley to use a not-very-good analogy. at least she takes control of the melody and tune.
    i'm not running out to buy this but if it came to my fingers while flipping through LPs or CDs, i just might pull that trigger.
