@xandin4 Oh.......I diddent mean it like that; what I mean't was that I don't know a whole lot about them and I'm not gunna argue about something I know nothing about. Now I feel bad. I'm sorry if it came out the wrong way.

Look at a picture on wikipedia....The baritone sax has two "turns" around the top that the tenor does not have. The tenor just has one "dip" between the top point of the sax and the mouthpiece. The baritone turns down 180 degrees, then twists over 90 degrees, then up another 90 degrees before curving over to the mouthpiece.
This is not an argument....I'm just trying to educate you on the saxophone.



Very nice... especially solo starting at 1:43 and Sentimental Journey duet. When I hear or read somebody raving about this or that sax player, I just shrug my shoulders and think, "...but then there was Boots". Check out Elvis' "Reconsider Baby" (in concert E = key of Gb on tenor- ouch!)- and I've gotten a lot of mileage out of licks from Boots' "Danny Boy".

I play sax. I grew up listening to Boots, and patterned a lot of my style after Boots. Sadly I never had the opportunity to see him perform live. One of my favorite albums is of Boots and Ritchie Cole. It's a classic. And I love your playing style. It's awesome. What brand of horn do you play - model, etc. I have a Selmer Signet and my wife has a Selmer from around the 1915-1918 period. I love the tonality of her horn - very reminiscient of Paul Desmond's horn. Keep up the playing.

@Daryl1766 My tenor is an old Selmer Mark VI, and I had an old Mark VI alto, but it got stolen after a gig. I was SOOOO sad! My alto is a Guardala, I've loved it, but will always miss my Selmer. That's WAY cool you & your wife play! Would love to hear you guys... do you have anything online?

@Daryl1766 Thanks Daryl! I can't TELL you how many times I played along w/ that Boots & Ritchie Cole Cd, and visualiezed myself playing Ritchie's part (long before I ever met Boots), so it was a dream come true for me to be able to ACTUALLY play harmony of that with Boots. Thanks, you made me smile! Pamela
