This makes me realize i may feel shitty that i play the keyboards. I want that kind of range of tone. I'm tired of just being loud and soft
No they aren't ...( 3 months ago by MagicRain505)
No they aren't squeaks. Since the song Song is in C (I feel like transcribing this masterpiece) He was playing a C5 concert, which surprisingly, he knew he was gonna hit it! Damn! The highest I can play on Alto is an F#4, which is the lydian 5th of the octave below it! He also starts hitting the F5 AND G5 AT THE END. As expected from Sonny to be so amazing, but I never knew he could do THAT. Not even on his milestone piano-less Night in Tunisia recording!

Hahah Sonny's sound makes Sanborn's alto sound like a kazoo. Don't get me wrong, I love Sanborn's alto sound and I think it's huge when he plays by himself. But when you put him next to one of the guys with the biggest tenor sounds around ... it just doesn't cut it haha. Great music tho.

I agree he's "wow" but he isn't late. In fact he still tours.

I saw this guy at the Barbican in London about 10 years ago. Waited an hour at the stage door to shake his BIG hands and get my Silver Album signed. He was old then! Can't believe he's still touring and throwing the long solos out.
I saw Ray Charles at the same venue 2-3 weeks later - turns out that was the last chance I would've had to get him. These guys are the founding fathers and while you have the chance, you gotta catch 'em before they're gone.
