I saw them in Bucharest 3 days after this concert. The music was awesome, but the sound mix was not up-to-par. The following day I saw Kenny Garrett at the same venue and the sound was much better!
US sax players: who's overrated/underrated Overrated David Murray: howl without any rhythm, it's pretty much heard what he can do. Charles Lloyd: out of tune boring minor pentatonic scales all around Archie Shepp: he could not play in 1964 and has never been able since Kamasi Washington: high school level with horrible sound Shabaka Hutchings: it feels like 100 years of jazz never happened. Here we are back in 1899 in Jamaica Sonny Rollins: his ego destroyed his playing at 36, sorry for him Lee Konitz: has never been able to play with the minimum energy for his sax to sound good Anthony Braxton: ugly sounds and ugly sounds: a long, uninterrupted series of ugly sounds John Coltrane after ALS: belief does not justify this self-indulgence Wayne Shorter: record some beautiful compositions wasted by a sloppy game should have been sanctioned Ornette Coleman: as he said himself before a concert in Paris in 1988, he is especially known 'for playing the saxophone badly' James Brandon Lewis: like almost all US tenor saxophones, he wants to be Trane in 1966. But he can't. Next one. Joshua Redman: mannered, mechanical with a repulsive sound. Composition without interest. Matana Roberts: the title of one of his albums is 'coin-coin', everything explains itself. Mark Turner: even if everyone repeats that it's good, my opinion will not change: it's boring Tony Malaby: 25 albums of 'Squeak squeak'...Ok man.. Joe Lovano: the first time I heard it on a disc with Motian and Frissel I stopped the CD. The other times too. John Zorn: I'm told he's a genius...Ok then I'm a sardine. Underrated Rahsaan Roland Kirk: these albums are remembered as unforgettable festive moments. Gato Barbieri: opened the mind to the dimension, capacity and beauty of the instrument. James Carter: exuberant and spectacular technique bearing the heritage of its predecessors. Albert Ayler: a lit spirit that pierces through a sound and unique compositions from the depths of the ages Sidney Bechet: who had this technique and this power before him? Earl Bostic: an alien player who chose popular music but educated many sax stars Michael Brecker: He enhanced the basic technique of the tenor sax based on the Afro-American tradition. Which earned him a lot of jealousy among his peers. Guys, you had to do it yourself! Gary Thomas: crushing sound and sci fi compositions, the complete package Pharoah Sanders after Coltrane: left to himself, Sanders was capable of some of the most satisfying music ever to come out of a saxophone. Maceo Parker: powerful sound and flawless sense of rhythm, a model of joy and cheerfulness that has shaped RnB since the 70's David Sanborn: who can boast of having created the sound of modern pop alto sax with such magnificent highs? Steve Coleman: magnificent player who knows his BIRD from top to toe, coupled with a very powerful conceptualist Arthur Blythe: a sound that attracts the listener like a magnet Eric Dolphy: so individualistic and personal that no one has ever been able to imitate his tone and playing Bob Berg: beast mode non stop! Jim Pepper: should be canonized just for his album Comin' and Goin'
Dude what you forgot to say is "I think that.." or "In MY opinion.." Just floating this out here on someone else's video is just cowardly and pointless. Make you OWN video and provide examples of why you think this.
