[applebites12345]

This is spectacular to say the least, I make up a majority of the views for this video and Ive learned some great new tips!

Thanks so much, youre an amazing player

[moviemadness2009]

Holy crap six tuplets! O_O

[monsterjamfan51]

0:45 is when it gets epic

[TheDonOfDons101]

WOW! its amazing!! All the other solos i just listened to sound rubbish after listening to this :O ots amazing!! :D

[OMGTEENZ1]

I needed a solo for my school drum major auditions and i found it

[MLiVigni1]

i just found this yesterday and i love it!!!! i think i've listened to it around fifty times since then (not exaggerating on that either) and the only thing i don't like is that i want to hear the whole song.... but i love none the less

[559ALTOSAX]

ive watched this video a thousand times and will gladly watch it one thousand more that was one of the best jazz solos ive ever heard im a jazz musician myself and that just makes me wana work up to that level or higher

[1newgroove]

This may be the most perfectly constructed solo ever played on the saxophone.

[checkster12]

@1newgroove No...it is not...even close....

[xiKidx]

Eargasm

[MegaJzcool]

damn. all i gotta say

[thunderfoot43]

He's plays altissimo like it's a b in the staff. :O

[MegaLegacy777]

I love the song and the saxophone is just so smooth. Makes me wanna dance.... ^_^

[AuDazzity]

The replay button is suing me for molestation...

[seanbroOG]

One of the best tenet sax solos ever.

[Drbarrelroll369]

This plays whenever I pee

[PoKeTaCeS5698]

thumbs up if this was fucking awesome

[XxTorrentWolfxX]

it scares me how high he can play

[thunderfoot43]

@XxTorrentWolfxX Look at the Sweet Georgia Brown solo he did. He plays much, much higher.

[craftaddict100]

Thank you! This helps so much for my jazz region improv!

[DramStiletto]

what kind of a faggot will dislike this?

[saxdrummer92]

Lmao, I listend to this like 100 times and I thought "You know, let me try to learn this. that'd be cool as hell"........I'm dying just on the 1st two measures. So ridiculous.

[YorkshireCompadres]

im not being a 'Hater' i thought id say ive heard better solos!

[uRawesomeTV]

1 Person has never listen to 'real' music like this.

I'm 13 years old and a Dubstep, Metal, fan. But THIS music is better than all remixs...

Pleas let me be able to play something like this one day on my sax!!!

[julienthomas14]

Which software do you use for printing this score? thanx

[Bone2BWildMusic]

@julienthomas14 it's a video screen capture of the Finale playback (with snaps pro) put into imovie and synced with the mp3.

[julienthomas14]

@Bone2BWildMusic ('scuse me, i don't speak english very well) if i want to print a score like this, i should use "Finale"? partition look likes "Charlie parker omnibook"

[Bone2BWildMusic]

@julienthomas14 yes, the music notation program is Finale using the jazz font

[MrSax93]

greatest!!

[doubleknavery]

i keep saying to myself, "just one more time"... then i listen to it like 8 more times

[robbiewillrock]

its so...in the pocket. wow.

[maty7976321]

Great Transcription, i listen to it a 1000 times it think!:P, can you send this transcription to me?

[Bone2BWildMusic]

@maty7976321 the transcription and MP3 can be DLed at the Hornheads web site in the bonus licks section

[GWFKing]

do you guys have tenor sax fingering charts for altissimo?

[Bone2BWildMusic]

@GWFKing check out Eugene Rousseau"s "Saxophone High Tones" method book

[GWFKing]

@Bone2BWildMusic where would i find that

[Bone2BWildMusic]

@GWFKing look like they've got it at amazon

[Dasummerbreez]

[tangy607]

You can convert this or any youtube video to an mp3 at audiogetnow..com

[techboy2009]

Ive learned up to measure 21 so far. I just cant those damn high notes yet! This guy is a beast

[lokir]

I think I just jizzed in my pants.

[supermegafifi]

this guy is a hybrid of beast and music

[56redwards]

Just amazing. .

[XxTTechxX]

This video doesn't have nearly enough views for how amazing this really is...

[fasaxify]

nobody can control those harmonics like him, stunning technic, stunning sound, stunning everything. Absutly love him, unfurtunatly i can´t find much of his stuff in the internet... not even on youtube, most of the videos are workshops, I was wondering when someone put here a nice real video, know what i mean.

Anyway, congratulations Kenny. You work is trully inspiring.

[x1strengthx]

I get shivers every single time i hear that bend!

[511400]

my god those notes up there are just amazing there so clean he is just great!!!

[DiaryofaMadman1982]

0:37 That bend he does just kills my heart. It sounds sooooo good. I can only dream of getting my tenor to sound that good.

[babooshee28]

Hey do you any of know where I can get the backing track to the Hornhead version of this song? Or any backing track with a 32 bar break for a solo?

[bassbonemexie]

man thanks for putting up these clips I absolutely had to buy the cd after hearing all these solos

[DuoMortaleMusik]

Dang, I transcribed this solo last year by myself! Did cost me a week or so to get everything out - no pain no gain. It's absoluteley flawless - Kenni Holmen's the man!!!

[allnwbone]

i got see these guys play this song, and many others, 10 ft. in front of me this last February... wow

[Robot0Ninja]

i got to work with him and michael at my high school. i play the bari sax, there going to play at our jazz fest for our school district, i hope to talk to sara then. these guys are amazing.

[hakuliu]

[edmondssax]

[linkinprk93]
