After you've been listening to a tons of music, a few accidental can mean the difference between day and night... Altered harmony gives the whole sound a different dimension by extending the "tone palette". You can "paint" very beautiful "colors" with chord extensions and altered notes. However, like I said, most people can't hear the "colors". But Eric is a great player tho. He can make the sax really sing with just five notes.

@dbsax007 Of course there are more talented sax players out there. It'd be daft to think Eric Darius is the absolute best musician alive. However, that doesn't, by any stretch of the imagination, make him a bad player. He has talent, and plays very well. Even if his style is a tad rudimentary compared to some of the jazz legends out there, it's enjoyable to listen to. You can't just judge music's enjoyability by it's complexity. The emotion poured into each piece is what makes his music great.

Young, gifted and you know. Music is how you hear and enjoy it. One size does not fit all. I read some of y'all comments, are you serious? Pentatonic or bebop, you're still only dealing with several notes and accidentials. I love music. What's your story?

This type of argument is simply pointless. I am a musician. Through experience, I found that most people say 80 percent (I am being very generous here) have "untrained ears". Rarely do I come across "average audience" who can distinguish between pentatonic and bebop scales. In fact, some prefer pentatonic because it's more "song-like" where as bebop licks might sound too out for them. Real jazz is not for everybody, if they don't get it, don't bother. I've tried...

Hey, this is smooth jazz, dont confuse it with real jazz, it has nothing to do with each other.
