Always fresh, cause it's authentically from the heart! Ain't that a David Sanborn song...oh yeah- STRAIGHT FROM THE HEART

[Americanjazzlady]

This is excellent! I saw another video of this, but it wasn't well taped or recorded. Whoever did this....thanks. I love David Sanborn too. He da man!! Yes, Hiram was great. The day he died, I went to the hospital for fractures in my left ankles.

God bless you all.

[djgantman]

[maidoodesu]

[Mojoman1]

I actually dont like the twitching/fast replays in this video; made me think something was wrong with my computer, but I heard this on TV and I JUST HAD TO HEAR IT AGAIN. GREAT JAM!! I LOVE JAZZ!!!

[geomavronas]

@geomavronas to critisise its very easy thing....to play good needs work years and years....useually people who talk to much they dont to many things but serius people they never talk about things they cant reach....so better practice to play some notes than say stupid things about legends like them.......

[bry3921]

R.I.P. Hiram Bullock. This is how we do it1

[igotalovestoned]

fuck u ! u dont appreciate jazz , go listen to rap ,emo musics!

[gbruceg]

@igotalovestoned Hey Idiot, don't you realize by saying it is the "baddest jam", I am actually giving it the highest compliment....??!!!! Vis-a-Vis "greatest song" What century were your born in anyway?

[igotalovestoned]

bitch i really love this song and this jam david is on my top 1 list!

[gbruceg]

Ok we've established you have a wide and varied curse word vocabulary, now let's focus on the heart of the matter... WE BOTH AGREE THIS SONG IS THE BEST!!!! Why is so hard for you to realize. If you want to keep hatin', be my guest. I have no more time to waste on you. Oh BTW, you did not capitalize "Bitch" and "I" nor the proper noun "David" in your last sentence. just an FYI.

[gbruceg]

Baddest jam on the planet!!!!

[kasponya]

My boy on guitar - R.I.P. Hiram

[DebbieDegnan]

I never tire of this. It is always fresh to me.

[sarnman]

HIRAM Bullock !!!! We all miss you !

[igotalovestoned]

who is hiram bullock sir

[1BRWNSKN]

Fortunately I was willing to endure the first minute an a half...it was garbage! I was sitting here thinking "I'm from Chicago and this garbage ain't the Chicago song"

[oldlob]

David's alive and well last I knew. Gigging in NY in just two weeks time.

Love that sax!!!

[TuttoJazz]

This song is an example of all composer...the sound the ambient....fantastic....cool!!­!

what a funk!!!

[chenzo313]

i read your post a few weeks ago. i checked on the internet immediately to see what david had died of. i found out that he is alive. he has a recent concert video on youtube as recent as last year.

[snow4tolifeends]

awesome man

[mochesax88]

grande david sanborn

[lightdweller]

Dammmmmmmnnnnn!!!! David Sanborn is jammin' as always! I saw him back in Bath,Ohio (between Akron & Cleveland) in 1982 @ Blossom Music Center outdoors. Al Jareau opened up for him.

[Rosalina1998]

David Sanborn is one of a kind. The greatest sax player ever. He ruled the 70's & 80's.

Sorry his career was short lived. If there was

an all time greatest jazz band, he's my sax player. An unforgettable talent, no one sounds like him.

[magichristo]

He is an inspiration to all sax players. As you said, no one sounds like him... His sound is the most unique sound ive ever heard. He's just the best of funk.

How did he die?

[dragoneyes8888]

it shows how much you know of david sanborn. just so you know he is still alive

[chenzo313]

why do you say his career is short lived? He still plays music and it looks like he still has his same band members on the recent vids i have seen.

[malkolmj]

Thanks!!! Pure Funk!

[NtheAMtry2rise]

Thanks for posting this. Could you upload the none live version as well?

[junkie4vids]

David Sanborn was at his best in the 80's and early 90's when contemporary jazz and instrumental fusion music were also peaking in a variety of musical landscapes. The incredible Hiram Bullock is clearly one of the best guitar masters around. Chicago Song represents the best of Mr. Sanborn. Great vid.

[bernardsmalls]

off da chain!!!!

[linroy62]

David is my favorite too, but I'd like to hear him do more of this kind of fusion like he did back in the 80s. Granted, times do change, but for me, this was him at his best.

[BENJ1969]

David Sanborn is simply one of my favorite artists of any category- top 5. I saw him live in 2005 and, live, he hits on all cylinders just like this video. This is classic contemporary jazz- for better or worse depending on who you ask. But to me, Sanborn's appeal is the fact that he isn't contemporary assembly line pop jazz. His scope and depth are beyond his contemporaries, and he has a tight band. Great video.

[VincentDrogas]

Don't forget Hiram Bullock! He is one of my favorite guitar players. I saw him live 4 times, and it's very,very amazing always.
