What strength legere reed the drummer might have been using? I guess the same strength legere reed as the bass and rhythm guitarists; don't you think? [lgh]
It would be awesome if Legere would update this with time stamps bookmarks where the players were named .. they certainly deserve the recognition for their performance. Unfortunately I do not know them most of them by faces.
Whoa, I'm so impressed! For me it is quite a GREAT performance. There's about 1000 words I could use to describe what I've heard and what I've felt inside listening to this, but it's pointless - shortly speaking: brilliant improvisation!
I am sometthing of an obsessive when it comes to Cantaloupe Island... and i must say I have heard dozens of versions of this golden nugget tune. The above version I awarded an 8 out of 10. I thought the funky off-beat angle worked well not least because all the musicians clearly feel and ride the groove seemlessly. Great stuff. Ravi.
Well I have to say this one is amongst my favourites now... they really put some rice and beans on this version ! But you might want to catch Freddiee Hubbard's guest appearances with H.Hancock. Just put put the above names as key words on your RUclips search with Cantaloupe Island. If you can't find it let me know and I'll send you the exact link. Good Luck to you. Ravi from London in Australia
They are all very fine musicians but the first alto soloist and specially the superman tenor dude are light years a head of the others .... at least in my humble opinion....
They are the worst of the players to be honest, the best soloist is the second tenor player because he was actually hitting the changes to the tune and creatively while putting in minor 2-5-1s that lead back into the one instead of playing a bullshit pentatonic like the rest of the players or holding an altissimo note for 18 bars. The last guy is just a gimmick that gets peoples attention, as impressive as it is hes not a good saxophone player.
Music Bruh, if you actually knew the tune, there isn't a minor 2-5-1 in cantaloupe island. The piano is changing his voicing from time to time. You might be hearing a 2-5-1, but that is voice changing brother. Additionally, if anyone was hitting the chord changes, it was the trombone, Derek, and the alto sax. Just in case you need to know, here's the format for cantaloupe island: 4 bars of Gm7 or Gm11, 4 bars of Eb7alt or Eb7, 4 bars of Em7 or Esus7, 4 bars of Gm7 of Gm11. They aren't all using pentatonics either bro. The first tenor uses the whole tone scale, first alto has a chromatic conversion, and several times I hear harmonic minor. And if you aren't an idiot, you should hear that they are obviously using the Dorian mode quite a bit. Sure they use the pentatonic scale a lot, but they have every write to use. Kenny G mainly uses pentatonic scales but he makes more money than both of us, so don't call the pentatonic bullshit. Then, Derek is actually a fine sax player. During his improvisation, I'm hearing harmony perfectly fine. And his best boxing is for show, but he outlines the chordal tones during that too. Like bro, if you are going to critic, do it right.
Liam McMahan I know there isn’t minor 2-5-1s that’s why I said he was inserting them into the tune leading back to the F Min which is why you can clearly hear him playing a C7 altered going back into 1... also just cause someone plays a whole tone scale once over the entire tune doesn’t mean that the rest of the stuff he is playing is nonsense. Congrats you ran up and down a scale on the Db7 and then went straight back to pentatonic bullshit... if you’re going to criticize my critique then at least understand what I wrote in my comment before you decide to come at me... Derek is still very tasteless and just uses gimmicks for people to enjoy his playing no real commitment to the tune itself
What cut of legere reeds were they playing? I can never get anything close to a jazz sound (or a pop sound) out of mine, even on really bright mouthpiece.
+edge60able Have you tried using the Studio Cut? I have the Classic Cut on my Jody Jazz Classic alto mouthpiece and get more of a classical sound with it. With other reeds, I get a jazzier/edgier/brighter sound. I think I'd get the same effect with the Studio Cut reed.
Exactly! That's why I can't stand a lot of these smooth jazz players because they just dance and sometimes they can't even play. It really gets on my nerves to see all that dancing and not hear anything.
Why did the sound engineer get such thin sax sounds? Drums & bass were massively up in the mix. I wonder if he knew it was even a sax feature. Spoiled such fantastic playing
I'm a tenor sax player, and a trombone can be an absolute killer solo instrument. Maybe not the best in this instance, but search up trombone shorty and tell me what you see
It's musically appropriate. I mean drums don't have reeds but they're still here. Sure the trombonist isn't using any Lègere reeds but damn he sounds great with the ensemble

Who knew Legere made Trombone reeds?! Amazing!!!
Jarrick Hillery 😆
saxed1616 very funny. I was at this jam session.
There mouthpiece
😂😂😂
What strength legere reed the drummer might have been using?
I guess the same strength legere reed as the bass and rhythm guitarists; don't you think? [lgh]
Derek Brown absolutely KILLED it!
the last two tenors were fire beyond that they were amassing
I know! So good
i liked the black guy's solo
That bass is sick! Wow!
It took me two years to discover that the name of the tenor saxophonist wearing the Superman shirt is Brad Rambur.
Derek Brown rises above the rest... not only for his "effects" (beatboxing) but also for his bebop licks. He wasn't sickeningly "bluesy" or "smooth".
Superman sounds really good on tenor
Amazing! I like the trombone solo very much.
The musical communication between drummer and the soloists here is a clinic for all aspiring jazz jam drummers.
the Superman guy and the trombone were the best. those solos were great
It would be awesome if Legere would update this with time stamps bookmarks where the players were named .. they certainly deserve the recognition for their performance. Unfortunately I do not know them most of them by faces.

Good drummer!!
Derek est très impressionnant ! super
Derek Brown was the best for sure
I got goosebumps when the trombone player initiated his solo. Later transitioning into the more funky, rhythmical playing. Amazing
Very inspiring to see such talented and imaginative young players. What a great line up
DEREK É O MELHOR... os outros... kkk
Derek Brown drive ici un repère incontesté de talents ! quel groove ! merci...c'est top
Derek Brown spectacular as always
Parabéns para esse baterista! Sensacional.
WoW WoW WoW !!!!!! Goose pimples !!!! What a fantastic group of artists . Top of their game !!!!!
The Best Guys !!!
Superman Derek!
very good, pity that we do not have events like this here in Brazil
I love you @Derek Brown :)
鳥肌たちました
muy bueno!!
The guy with the pointy beard's playing reminds of Bennie Maupin's. Good stuff.
C'mon his sound is peanuts compared to Bennie's
Drummer is a Bad Ass!!!!
DU TOUT BON ...
a m a z i n g !
Super j adore
Tune up before the gig!
Very good
That silver finish with gold accents is like the best coloration you can get on saxs.
Absolutely not.
Bravissimo .
********wowww...wowww
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯💯
Tight band gets through the changes !
First solo is the best. Period
Nice !!!!!!’
Derek Brown :)
Great light Jazz jam, isn't it?

What are your favorite versions/covers of this tune?

Diferencias enormes entre una joya musical y la basura de plastic pop del vecinillo Centennial.
👍👍
Bravo trombone!
Those reeds could of burned a house down after those solos
Does anyone hear those Chords the lead Guitarist is making at 10:12. The guys is killing it for the Band.
se louco , os caras mandam de mais .
lmao at end
O Superman,kkkkkk
i wish i could have a do over I sounded horrible!! The reed was a little stiff,but no excuses!!! Sorry guys!
Isn't the whole point of this to promote the reeds? maybe don't blame them
I was impressed by your flow and your power! A few squeaks but what the hell, still nice!
+William Ho well friend maybe I am wrong, but I thing that all sax player in this video are using legere reeds. all sounds realy bad for me.
15:30 Derek's fail face
Anyone have a list of all the musicians names in this video?
@legere reeds could you also add the name of the other players in the description please?
trobone is somthing new style.... what a nice egg .. please be big bird
Who is the tenor sax guy with the black baseball cap? great tone
They are all very fine musicians but the first alto soloist and specially the superman tenor dude are light years a head of the others .... at least in my humble opinion....
Mauriciovideomaker haha humble... :)
Mauriciovideomaker the final tenor is the best in "my humble opinion"

Does anyone know the name of the superman dude?
What cut of legere reeds were they playing? I can never get anything close to a jazz sound (or a pop sound) out of mine, even on really bright mouthpiece.
Derek brown is using signature cut legere reeds
+edge60able Have you tried using the Studio Cut? I have the Classic Cut on my Jody Jazz Classic alto mouthpiece and get more of a classical sound with it. With other reeds, I get a jazzier/edgier/brighter sound. I think I'd get the same effect with the Studio Cut reed.
+MrSaxmanJones Sorry, I haven't ever used the studio cut reeds
Trombone player was good... what strength reed does he use. ?????
For me the tenor guy with the black baseball cap with letter T was the best -loved his tone-what is his name?
If you came here for Mr.Beatbox himself, his solo begins at 12:30.
The last saxophone players....Wtf!!!! Great great improvisers!!! They are the motherfucker's !!!! Amazing!!!!
What is name Superman?
5:40 Fred Wesley?
All that damn moving but aint playing a damn thing smh
Im saying tho
XD, i'm dead
this dude funny af
Miles Barnett exactly
Exactly! That's why I can't stand a lot of these smooth jazz players because they just dance and sometimes they can't even play. It really gets on my nerves to see all that dancing and not hear anything.
The one thing I'll give him is that the setup to his solo wasn't like the others'. Other than that, this kid thinks he's Eric Darius or something.
What is the name of the one wearing the cap?
Andrae Grant
thank you
@@ronaldgj I love that guy -great tone-I rated him #1on this track!!
My favorite was the trombone. By far the weakest player, but I love how he got his confidence and caught the groove!
Why did the sound engineer get such thin sax sounds? Drums & bass were massively up in the mix. I wonder if he knew it was even a sax feature. Spoiled such fantastic playing
Derek brown is king, every one els was generic and boring, derek did something different and it was amazing
boi
jazz is never generic or boring
Keroncong version
ruclips.net/video/b8MxSXsLs8U/видео.html
Goddamn 4:03 is fire
trombone no so good week improvization... the supermen guy the best of them all
???????????
Студенты. ))
The one that start playing at 7:30 use a can reed…
Bad gig🤘🤔
Great talent and effort from everyone! but I honestly don't think a Trombone is a good solo instrument...
I'm a tenor sax player, and a trombone can be an absolute killer solo instrument. Maybe not the best in this instance, but search up trombone shorty and tell me what you see
+1 on that reply. Alto/Bari player here, the trombone can be amazing as a solo instrument.
Go look up Bart van leir
Check out Fred Wesley as well.
Too many cooks
Why is there a trombone?
variety?
Maybe but this jam was for a woodwinds company that makes REEDS.
It's musically appropriate. I mean drums don't have reeds but they're still here. Sure the trombonist isn't using any Lègere reeds but damn he sounds great with the ensemble
Herbie Hancock would be pleased
The last guy was the best, he's the only one with a half-decent sound... until the beatboxing bullsh**
So true
smh...
Plastic sound on saxes.
Anyway, players are really good.
Wow, that was garbage!
Thank you for this comment
