[TimMesaris]

YEA, GIT 'ER DONE!!

[skatladyBln]

great job ! :-)

[number1saxophone]

@skatologyBrn I wouldn't go that far. The backing track makes it sound fake. Check out my band's new Peter Gunn video for comparison. We played it all live and it shows! 

[IssyRedbird]

My school orchestra is playing this song, just the cellos, for our final concert, and I have the part you were playing. It so makes up for playing the sort of boring part to Imperial March.

[azoro13]

hey lad -nice job - where do i found the backing so i can play along like you ?thanks for the help

[mike20731]

@azoro13 well i got the backing from a CD that came with sheet music, i dont have it anymore though and i forget what its called. if you google peter gunn backing track you can probably find it

[Viperboy519]

isnt this in a game james bond perhaps???

[saxzuruk]

good playing but you need to concetrate on your tone couse you are out of tune keep playing and use vibrato and growl

[MultiPizza1]

WHERE CAN I GET THE NOTES FOR YOUR SOLO

[MultiPizza1]

WHERE CAN I GET THE NOTES FOR YOUR SOLO

[mike20731]

[Rndmhouseproductions]

I played this in my jazz band last year. you should do tequila it's a fun song

[clarinetgurl2015]

I am gonna learn that next year in Jazz Band!!!

GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!

[theycallmegat]

ive heard this theme played on a trombone but i like it more on the sax

[mycreations2]

Great job young man! You remind me of when I started playing the sax when I was 11 (i'm 42 now). You're doing great! Practice, practice, practice...you know. Take a look at a video of my uncle, Jim Aldridge playing the same song in a band about 50 years ago He was my inspiration to play the sax and perform..listen to his version, try to learn some of his techniques in it, growling, trilling, double tounging, embouchure manipulation and...practice ALOT. Stay positive and good luck in all you do!

[mike20731]

thanks, and the recording of your uncle is awesome. he sounds great

[SuperUltraMegaWalrus]

i'm learning this song right now on alto and tenor and i'm learnin moanin by mingus when i get my bari

[MarcelHall21]

The Jazz Version of Peter gunn. And its sounds good.

[Phile220491]

ah but as i read in other comments you are just 15 years old?!

so for your age it really is not bad.

but you can try playing it a bit dirtier and try growling

if you want to know how to do growling you can write me a pm or search for it.

it will take a long time for you to learn it.

it took me 2 weeks dayly training.

[mike20731]

yeah i'm working on growling and i'm starting to get good at it now, but this video is from awhile ago when i didn't even know what growling was. thanks for the advice

[Phile220491]

man feel the music

you really need to feel it.

sorry to say it but it doesn't sound really good

try become a dirty sound.

i know that it's better with a tenor sax because i play tenor and i love this song.

but like this it sound's like a 8 year old kid olaying the second year on a sax.

and if you can

try growling.

and i will sound much better.

[AintYoHood]

On a Alto Sax? I find it better on the Tenor.

[mike20731]

yeah, i like it better on tenor too, but i don't own a tenor sax so i gotta work with what i have

[Jegoruku]

I think you do not feel it. Feel the music.

[mike20731]

k. i'll work on that

[Jegoruku]

wow, sorry mate. I just now saw that you are 15 years old. Must admit that for your age it IS good.

[mike20731]

thats okay. i don't mind a little constructive critizism.

[techkid67]

5000 veiws. nice mike

[aidenmnuroff]

nice!

[0neAfterAnother]

Hey, it's steve from the band, We were wondering that if we did Born to Run by Bruce Springsteen if you could the solo, if you don't want to it's ok, but it'd be a cool touch.

[mike20731]

hey steve. yeah that would definately be cool. i'll start learning it as soon as i can. that'll definately be a cool thing to include in the song

[cmdrchris971]

woo!

sax it up

[Phrix0s]

You need more cowbell.

[mike20731]

yes! good suggestion. it does need some more cowbell

[dem1423]

wow. your really good! keep it up. i look forward to seeing more videos

[coltsboy98]

awesome!!!!

[FatttttKiddddd]

Dud, you're great! Where'd you get the music?

[mike20731]

thanks. the musics from a book called "The Music Of Henry Mancini Plus One", and it comes with the backing tracks for all the songs

[Jazzatic2]

YA good job.

[cutechick64]

Nice man! Im not a sax player but hope to be soon. you've got a good sound.

[EAMJTM]

Fantastic, Mike.

[OttOandCO]

You sound great Mike! That is a very difficult song. I've got it too in my Mancini album. Especially those loooong notes at the beginning of the song are difficult because they take a lot of breath!!!

Well, you don't seem to have a problem there.

Keep it up man, I am looking forward to your next video!!!!!

Love, Cobi

[mike20731]

thanks. i like your videos too.
