oh yes! been lovin sil for many years.
Check out “Battle Royal” which is a tenor sax battle between Sil Austin and Red Prysock, another awesome player.
this is just very basic blues so of course you can do it! just leave the double-tonging theatrics for now…
he’s playing tenor so he’s in G and keeping it all around the pentatonic blues scale which is only 5 notes:
G minor pentatonic is G Bb C D F
Yeeaaahhh….now that’s what we’re talking about 🙂 Thanks for sharing Dazza, that’s a good one 🙂 I’m glad Johnny mentioned Red Prysock…man that guy has got some good, GOOD stuff. 2 of my favorites of his is “Purple Wail” and “Charleston Twist” these guys are all using the pentatonic/blues scales that Johnny teaches us how to use in Killer Blues–listen to the song above that Dazza shared and listen to the 2 songs below–we can hear those scales/key notes being used by these guys time and time again….GOOD stuff 🙂
