GREAT ARRANGEMENT ! - I'll spare you my credentials but suffice it to say that NOT EVERYBODY HAS TO LIKE ALL THINGS.....I think PHIL COLLINS is BRILLIANT and so is SANBORN ! Does this arrangement have the same excitement as the original? NO. B U T it has its' own excitement. WHY ? - - It's a different arrangement. This is what we musicians do sometimes......we enjoy challenging ourselves with new things, styles, instrumentation. Does it really matter that we all know each others' opinion ?

@mohomoho1 Sappy? As opposed to Phil Collins' riveting Disney soundtrack masterpieces? This isn't supposed to be the same "earthshaking" electronic drums drenched rendition of the original, if you wanna get technical about what exactly can be referred to as sappy. And despite my tongue in cheek comments on Collins original, I do love it, and this cover of the classic tune. Collins' original cut was never my favorite single of his (the rest of "Face Value" blows it away!). I like this 1 better.

@jalabi99 I have about 20 or 22 cd's of David Sanborn in my jazz collection of over 5,000 jazz cd's. Doing only 2 straight ahead jazz records in a span of over 36 years of recording your own music while not put in the circle of the the straight ahead players. The majority of his records are mostly nice pop and r&b instrumentals. Go back listen to them. Starting back in 1975.

@ceetee21 I disagree. ANOTHER HAND (1991) and his more recent HERE AND GONE are both straight-ahead jazz albums by David Sanborn. The JazzTimes article "David Sanborn: The Blues and the Abstract Truth" (2008) agrees with me on this.

All fans of jazz go through an elitist stage. It's necessary to learn the music. There's so much there that everything seems empty by comparison.
If you're speaking ill of Sandborn you're still stuck in that phase. Nobody does what Sandborn does better. He's not dealing with complex harmonies and rhythms like Wayne Shorter, but who cares? We can just listen to Wayne Shorter.
Enjoy Sandborn for the outstanding musician he is. There's much to learn from him.

want the entire video!!!!!!!!!!!! where can I get it?
David Sanborn is completely capable of playing whatever style of music he wishes. He is a University of Iowa graduate and performed in the jazz groups there during his undergraduate years. Perhaps it's time to quit rationalizing "Your" take on other people's music and just dig it. I may suggest reading Aaron Copland's book, "How To Listen To Music" and keep comments to the 3rd plane of listening. This will keep petty arguments off of nice posts like this. Enjoy the music folks. Nice job D!
