Cannonball Adderley - Work Song Solo

[Gatokrk]

like-to-dislike ratio is simply unfair.

[JUSfr34k]

How Long have you been playing?

[roastertat]

Geat playing. Yani sounds great too. Would you tell me your mouthpiece and reed set up.

[Superdry1302]

r u reading that or did u transcribe by ear?

[WWJD1336]

Where did you find the music for this?

[orumbocek]

what is your sax's mark?

[anshuvio3]

you sound pretty good!

[soulfamu]

Really good!

Nice job. Cannonball was one of the greats, and is too often overlooked when considering jazz legends. Same w/his brother Nat, who was a great cornet player.

[BuckshotLaFunke]

I respect you deeply. Yet it is almost impossible to get Cannonball's drive, because that was part of the man's creative urge. And sheer energy is no solution either, I think: Sonny Stitt had plenty of that, but it didn't make him a second Bird.

But hats off to you!

Those licks and phrasing are Cannonball's not sim833's. He is playing a transcribed solo. Not to put his playing down, but credit should not be where credit is not due.

Overall pretty nice work. I will say that if you work on the articulation that cannonball uses on his 16th notes, then it would swing a LOT harder. His phrasing mostly (with a lot of exceptions of course) tongue-tongue-slur-slur.

I've been working on solos from his bossa nova album. He's got some sweet licks and phrases thr

[ChaosOnTheBBQ]

very smooth transitions & excellent hits! really enjoyed listening...

[afinny007]

Is that a Yani??

[sim833]

yes it is

[holdemjoe]

Good work-I think his solo(and the entire album featuring 'Work Song')is sadly inderated.Hope you've heard 'Never Will I Marry'(The Pollwinners) and 'Barefoot Sunday Blues'(Takes Charge). Essential listening-and keep going,man!

[sim833]

I know them all, and love them all

[Cmdrrom]

nice work! definitely one of my top favorite cannonball tunes to play =)

[jazzflutist]

Well done. Some nice moves in there.

[ContrabassSaxophone]

nice work!

[Saxophonic]

yanis are fucking sweet, i'm saving up for one, not for tone but the respones, how much u get yours for?

[TOmli87]

I've never liked Yanis, response is decent, but has weird key lay-out when compared to Yamahas and Selmers. If you got the cash go for a selmer, in general, better response than Yanis. much better tone.

[LucasLin]

Nice man!

You have a pretty good tone, good job!

[CooolJazzz]

Very nice

[JazzKid59]

nice!
