Alto Madness: Kevin Pike saxophone improvisation #7

This is from a series of free improvisations by alto saxophonist Kevin Pike. It was recorded on July 27th, 2010. Here Kevin explores an angry pentatonic riff in Eb minor. Get more music by Kevin Pike at http://kpikemusic.com and http://www.fracturedintuition.com Kutiman links to this video as the source for his youtube mashup "My Favorite Color." He actually used a different Kevin Pike solo sax improvisation (#5). You can view Improvisation #5 at

This makes me want to dig out my later-era Coltrane, or maybe Borboletta from Santana. Cool! :)

You've been discovered!  Nothing like a complete stranger taking a clip of your home video and then watching that video go viral. Good job on your improv, Kevin, and good work, Kutiman.

Don't ever stop playing

Kinda sad that every comment (including my own) talks about a completely different video.

Anyway, you're quite talented and you sure know how to improvise. I've always been interested in trying alto of higher because I've only played tenor or baritone sax.

Dude -- I'm here via kutiman -- and he put you in a kick ass mashup song. Oh lord, your part fits so perfectly too.
