@ nunchuckification nah not kidding. but i ask you this. what has chris potter bought to jazz that no ones done before? answer. nothing. not trying to knock him (he's my favourite modern player! i have every single recording of his) but he's an amalgamation of past styles. he takes a bit of rollins a bit of coltrane a shitload of parker and combines it all and he has absolutely monster chops to top it off. i've analysed the shit out of his work and theres not really anything that new there
brecker was the most innovative, but holy shit man sanborn was popular! as for chris potter, his playing has raised the bar for contempory jazz but he's not really doing anything new.
This is the coolest, most unique, insightful Video I have come across - Wow!!! The adam's apple joke shows you can be a great musician and funny/jovial:) I am going to go practice now.
Dear ycfighyingirish1 I am about Frank's age and David Sanborn was WAY more famous with his own TV Show in the 1980's. Judging by your language your I.Q. must equal your shoe size .
your kidding, right? i guess we might as well say that kenny g is the most influential saxophonist today too. you should probably stop listening to shitty tenors and go listen to good ones.
David Sanborn has used Vandoren V16 for about 10 years but he used Lavoz/Rico for all of the stuff that made him famous from the 1960's through the 1990's.
awesome vid... can't wait to try this
... sure the bats in the attic won't like it though > ; ) !!

I Agree, and i'm pretty sure not many other people play in all the crazy meters that he does, And it doesnt always take innovation to be influential.

kenny g is not the most influential. he doesn't even make real jazz albums! The most influential sax player today I think is chris potter!
