@guitargodfather1 The first time I ever played with him, he came to one of my gigs and entered through the back. No one knew he was there. I'll never forget it. We were playing Sandu, I was blowing and I had my head down as I often do. I never saw him coming. I finished my last chorus and this incredible wall of sound was right in my face. He was maybe five feet away. I could feel every note in my chest. Go hear him play and sit right up front. You'll see what I'm talking about. :P

@guitargodfather1 I've known him for years and through all of his evolution as a player, that's the one thing that hasn't changed: amazing tone. His conceptual thing has evolved, too, but it was still very much formed even in his younger days. He is truly a giant of jazz and—you said it best yourself—in a category all his own.

@dangerbooboo You know, I can see that. This is really the response I was looking for, because something about him stuck out to me, but I'm listening more and more and quickly realizing that it's a good thing. You get so used to the usuals like Coltrane and Rollins, it's easy to miss the gems of guys like Lovano. He's really different, I think I was trying to liken him to some of my favorites when he really belongs in a category on his own.

@guitargodfather1 Are you just listening to him on YouTube? Because his tone is anything but whispery. I've played with him a lot and I can assure you that he has one of the biggest, warmest, most awe-inspiring tones of anyone in jazz. I mean, he belongs on the list of the greatest tenor sounds in history. No joke. But if you really think his solos are sporadic, I don't know what to tell you. The man speaks volumes through his horn and I understand him. Nothing sporadic about it to me.
