Mindi is not only a talented sax player but she has got to be one of the sexiest women alive. She just oozes sensuality when she plays and she just loves to entertain.
Don't get me wrong, i'm not knocking her style. Every artist has the right to express themselves as they choose to. Infact I love smooth Jazz and play it myself. I was told by a credible source that Mindi Abair is a traditional Jazz artist, therefore I went to hear some traditional jazz. This is not traditional jazz aka str8 ahead jazz for purist, but I still love her music, and the passion which she plays. She is a great smooth jazz sax player !
Look, dude; I have heard her solos; I have seen her in concert; I know good and great music; She in not in the same league as the current headlining male or female sax players, i.e., Warren Hill, Richard Elliot, Kenny G, Euge Groove, Kirk Whalum, Candy Dulfur, etc... And if you cannot hear the difference, then you probably need to have the ears examined. And if you cannot feel the difference, then you probably are not thinking of music.
@SopranoSaxBoss Its called evolution my friend. Get on board and enjoy the ride. This is Uptempo Smooth Jazz. Check out Sky.fm. Peace & Love to all JAZZ lovers!
im not trying to hate but i was not expecting that sound to come out of her sax and i know shes only sayin one word but she has a nice voice too. i give her props for entering a music genre that is over run by men and she does it well.
Mindi will be appearing at the Jazz On The Rocks in Sedona, AZ. this weekend, Oct 7 & 8. Wow, can she play. Cant wait to see & hear her live under the northern Arizona blue sky with a backdrop of Sedona Red Rock mountains all around.
@bpandpwlvr Mindi's set was awesome and yes she did preform Smile. Jeff Golub was a special guest and played several songs with Mindi. Also Dave Koz joined Mindi on stage for a couple of songs. I will let you know when I have my photos posted on FB if you would like to see them.
if "In Hi-Fi Stereo" is supposed to rekindle a spark of nostalgia, from a time when vinyl was a more common release format, then why isn't it available on vinyl??? I mean, the picture of Mindi on the cover shows her holding a record, and with other vinyl records lying around. Come on Mindi, use your say so and please get some vinyl of your material released! I'd buy every album right away!
WOWEE! I loved it!. Neat to see in person the track I hear and love on the radio. Neat as hell to find out she's hot. Neater still to see the nuances between her and the band (hopefully it's the real band) on the set. Subtle stuff, trust and performance value. Awesome.
@scrillanilla I don't think that's true. I think it's because her music is a little more modern than other's. She is very hot, indeed, but so is Jessie J. I really think it's because of her music and not her appearance or ability to play sax. (English is not my main language)
@scrillanilla Wow, whats with the hate man? Why get bend out of shape? Who is the person or critic who you believed overrated her? If you do not enjoy her music it's ok. Mindi has plenty of fans and you are either jealous or just mean. You are entitled to your opinion and I respect you right to your opinion but you are in the minority and thats OK. Enjoy your life. Peace & Love to you and all who enjoy the "average" smooth jazz sax sounds of Mindi.
@schoomzer - uh.. did you bother listening to her solos, especially the riff starting at 4:05? Pick up a sax and show something better. Less than average? Hardly.

I learned of Mindi abair via "Jazz Times Magazine". I quess instrumental pop is now Jazz.
I even saw Joshua Redman take his shirt off once on stage while playing. The state of jazz is in serious trouble lol.
