Marianne, I wanted to let you know that I love this video. I've watched it a couple times a day for the last few months. It makes me very happy. It's such a perfect combination of video and sound, its wonderful.

@yoheadnot Thank you so much for taking the time to tell me! It makes me really happy that people have enjoyed it so much. It's special to me, too.

I love this song and tenor sax is absolutely incredible!! If those people in the old home movies only knew how cool they were going to be!

[MarianneSp]

@nappyheadhoes ah, they were always cool! :D

[MarianneSp]

thanks again to all!

Hi Marianne,I'm the sax player on this cut and I've been enjoying this wonderful video collage that you put together for months.

I consider it quite a complement that you chose Illinois Jacquet to represent me not that I would compare my playing to his in any way,but Jacket was a real soul-cat.

Thank you.

@williamo5827 And excellent, subdued contribution on Fountain Stairs, too! DH are sorely missing out to have never played this live yet (especially with you) ;)

@punksbeathippies Thank you! My Rock Fantasy #827 is sitting in on guitar with Deerhunter for a live version of "Coronado," and of course joined by Bill on sax. :-)

the sax on this song blows it into another world. I've never heard a saxophone sound so distinct and unique.
