que hermosa voz

[@lexykovin7566]

Dave Koz is genius

[@eructuclaptoso]

I want Japan to come and perform with this member.

[@myamaha62]

If you think Mindi is bright in this video, you really need to see early Dave Koz from the 80's when he played with other funk bands. Jeff Lorber. Mr Zoot Suit.

[@VirgilDavis]

Sweet!!!

[@jsaxreyes1941]

Masters

[@GaryStanionis]

Man Dave's tone is ridiculous!

[@johnwatkins7787]

Awesome

[@zairewatkins3490]

Nice

[@arionnawatkins7188]

Hey dad

[@wyndhleodumegwu253]

Love this alto saxophonic duet of "Just The Two Of Us" - cool Funk-Fusion Instrumental Pop.
What has become of Cindy Dulfer [sp]?
Before Mindi Abair, she was the mean alto Saxtrix - Cindy was.
Pamela Williams is another "saxtress"with great talents also.

[@milosjankovic6574]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@luchitoperiquito]

que beleza

[@seanzhou985]

MINDI has more DARK and JAZZY tone,for me ,I perfer MINDI !hope have fun play with u in next month 16TH SHANGHAI

[@jonathansims4703]

Her style reminds me so much of David Sanborn.

[@Desertduleler_88]

I think she is using a "Dukoff mouthpiece.......

[@wyndhleodumegwu253]

Dave is her first and last idol.
In today's instrumental music, tone is as irrelevant as it is personal.
Tonal quality is personalized - individualized.

[@CaptainCreature]

Jonathan Sims I tell my students tone quality is more important than the technicality of your playing. If you don't have good tone, people aren't going to want to listen

[@arteypianos1039]

wow

[@MissingMars]

for those talking tone here -its a cell phone vid -I do see Mindi w/a condenser & Koz using a vocal mic (dynamic I imagine) & Koz wins to these ears, but you need to mix like instruments differently so they differentiate from each other. We wouldn't want them sounding the same, now would we....

[@dr.parthabanerjee2982]

There is nothing wrong musically with either of them. Infact I think both of them stand tall in their respective areas. But somehow Mr Dave appeals to my ears more, always has.

[@stephanomarr6829]

THIS SISTER HAS SOME CHOPS.....she has IT down to science, SHE'S as Smooth AS SILK.....PS I GET A WITNESS I GET A WITNESS...????

[@MrBlueSkyMrNight]

I'm a WITNESS!!! I hear it!!! Checkout my MINDI ABAIR playlist.

[@videoslogicos]

[@christinechengofficial]

[@kyylaajbyran5397]

Talking about a JAM SESSION.... A Party Going On... Some Bad.....#$$%% ;

[@celiocarlos3161]

do not get me wrong the Dave koz destroyed it lol

[@muhfajrifirdausi6723]

Song ?

[@MrJefftheref]

Just not the same played on alto

[@alxsaxo7623]

Mindi needs a hard rubber. Her tone is too thin.. she needs like a jumbo java

[@boganix]

I hope they found the thief who stole her Yamaha Custom Z alto!!!

[@cesarchang3044]

Dave = Excellent Tone
Mindi = Bad Tone

[@sfrbeats]

+cesar chang exactly!

[@geoffreysimpson8494]

Dave awful tone
Mindi worst than awful and embarrassingly bad.

[@sfrbeats]

It's definitely not Dexter Gordon

[@LunaticTheCat]

+cesar chang Ya, having good tone doesn't seem to be a conscious thought of hers.

[@CaptainCreature]

cesar chang not bad tone, just not as good as his. Her tone is just raspy, not bad thing..but Koz has sensuous easy listening tone

[@tedroy1992]

decent version but sorry Mindi's vocals can't hang will Bill Withers

[@MrPartidoalto]

Can these two stop playing licks and play some real music over a two chord vamp solo? Play me some Grover or Hank Crawford, the real deal.

[@dontgetsentalink]

MrPartidoalto preach, or at least some bebop, granted Koz uses the bebop scale a bit in his solo...

[@musicientunisien]

the men saxophonist much better to abair
