Nelson has long been one of the best. Great performer. Great musician. Thanks for the post.

Who is on the guitar?

He is so amazing.

[MrCwinters1000]

I am from Saginaw , and the Jazz on the river is a nice venue.

[SnakeHandler1993]

Not one bad song or performance, ever. He brings his "A" game everytime!!

[1BLACKSAX]

Holy Sh-t!! This guy plays his entire ass off!! 'nuff said!!

[nobodylefttodie]

Totally awesome, love all of his music!

[JohnnyC93842]

Wow. Fantastic video. I am reliving his performance in Conn.

[vwy551]

I get to see him live next week. Holla!

[saxman2256]

Hey livegigvideo1, can you tell me who the bass player and drummer are in this video. They sound really good together. Thanks

[dodsonsth]

Fan-tastic!

NELSON RANGELL IS ONE OF THE FINEST "MUSICIANS" ON THE PLANET! PERIOD. HE HAS PERFORMED WITH THE COLORADO SYMPHONY, HE PLAYS WHAT YOU ALL CALL "STRAIGHT AHEAD" JAZZ LIKE NO OTHER, HE IS CONTEMPORARY AND HE IS AMAZING. SET A CHART IN FRONT OF HIM, HE'LL NAIL IT THE FIRST TIME. HE IS A MASTER ON SAX AND FLUTE. EXCEPTIONAL READER. SO MUCH SO THAT IT IS SAID HE CAN READ "FLY SHIT". SO BE CAREFUL ABOUT CRITICIZING ARTISTS BECAUSE OF YOUR OPINION. EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO OPINION.

David Sanborn and Nelson Rangell...That's like trying to compare kiwi to mango, both are great fruits and have lots to offer in their own way. Sanborn comes from a different era and genre of Jazz, influenced my old school musicians and sitting in sessions, which creates a different style from different experiences.

I just enjoy their music and don't try to compare.

[trinigalfly]

In my opinion, Nelson Rangell and David Sanborn are not even in the same class. I am a huge Sanborn fan......hands down Rangell is very commercial......which isn't to say that I do not like his sound. There is just no comparison between the two.

[williemagee]

tone is everything notice the p a system.sound quality is important.sounds kinda hollow.sounds clean and controlled.

[TheSuperman215]

The man that made me want to pick up the sax and play 12 years ago.

[jazzzphannn]

Going against my code not to argue which crew is better. I was a huge NR fan back in the day, but even I had to recognize he and Candy Dulger were just Sanborn clones. Don't get me wrong I own two of NR's CD's. Maybe he is a better talent than his music allows. I mean Cindy Blackman plays very limited licks for Lenny Kravitz. The stuff NR put out lacked the energy of Sanborn. Check out Sanborn's Rush Hour live with the late Hiram Bullock and Ricky Peterson on the Keys. 

[TheSuperman215]

Wow I love the live version.

[raphaimt]

Soul good! Excelent!

[sopranosaxophonist]

Livegigvideo1, Thank you so much for your generous sharing.His alto sound is extremely difficult to be produced.

[sopranosaxophonist]

similar to David Sanborn

But Nelson's tone is sweeter and more commercial

[chauntzu]

@sopranosaxophonist

LMAO...You are actually implying that this cat is in the same realm as Sanborn...Give me a break!!! As for the "more commercial" comment...that's no measure of talent!!!

[crewscaine1]

i love this song!!!!

[ambelito16]

YEAH.... Espectacular...

Me encanto...

[peedub]

Yeah, Nelson can whistle like nobody's business.

[tun3tym3]

Have you heard this guy whistle?

Loved the boots I've heard with Jeff Jenkins on piano.

That combo was ridiculous.

You da man Nelson. Kenny G....who?

[missmochashake]

Amazingly beautiful !!! Mr. Randell have a unigue style it's unbelieveable. Thanks for posting.

[missmochashake]

This is amazingly beautiful. Mr Rangell you have a style that is unique. Thanks for posting.

[bigtoine45]

"Turning Night into Day" may be the best smooth jazz album ever.

[mtgaines1012]

This song is "Turning Night Into Day". Discovered Nelson about a year ago. Brotha is simply AWESOME. He truly puts body and soul into his playing. "Grace" makes me stop, now that is true soul stopping music. Thank You Mr. Rangell!

[customz]

i get the chills when he plays those altissimos!!!!

[JesyLizy]
