As always your a star Mel…thank you. Missed that one by an hour. The ” truetone “….?? The guy accepted my offer, but wanted a mpc thrown in. I haven’t got one I’m prepared to part with….so; ( cue drum roll ); I have bought and paid for a new Trevor James. Black enamel, gold keys, looks great !! Paid 650 ( pounds ) for it, which was my absolute max after buying the Lawton. I’m happy, its brand new ( just been sitting in a closet, unused ). No Kings, Conn’s, or Selmers this time, but its going to be a solid workhorse. The Lawton is fabulous !!
Thanks everybody for all your help, patience and understanding. Alls well, that ends well !!
Cheers…jakApril 18, 2017 at 7:32 am #52664Is this the one? If so you should have yourself a nice horn!

April 18, 2017 at 10:38 am #52690Think mine is the horn 1 Mel. Its a kind of metallic silver \ black…gold keys. One day soon, I’ll grab this laptop, show you my horns, mpcs, drums, congas, photos of my relatives….the usual cr**…lol !!
If you get a chance, there has been a lot of altissimo talk recently, and rightly so. IMO..the best altissimo on record is ” Spanish Moon ” off of ” Little Feats ” live album ” Waiting for Columbus ”
played by Lenny Pickett…who else ?? Seriously man, thanks for all your help, I owe you one man !!April 18, 2017 at 10:40 am #52691Gotta stop saying man….man !! Im just a daft old hippie…

April 18, 2017 at 10:57 am #52693TREVOR JAMES ” THE HORN ” BLACK AND GOLD. That’s the given ” name ” Mel. Never thought I’d be so happy to grab an average tenorsax. I’ve had a lot of time to think about this and I’m totally with Andy Snitzer . I’m going to sound a lot better on this than on a clapped out S20, regardless of the kudos.
All done, the seller only lives 50 clicks away, so it will be here by the weeks end. Whoah…these jalapeño are HOT m…..nope !!April 19, 2017 at 12:06 am #52738Anonymous

April 19, 2017 at 1:24 am #52742Great clip Jeff, thanks. I love playing that calypso feel. A tune ive played for years is ” The Everywhere calypso ” by Sonny Rollins. I think its on the ” Next “album. Lot of good stuff on here this morning….its gonna be a good day !! Gotta get down that ” Respect ” solo. For the record, I think it moves from Emi \ AM \ Emi \ Fmi ?? Any thoughts..??
Have a good day folks, and blow like, there’s no tomorrow.!! ( not politically apt but hey !! )
Best….jakApril 19, 2017 at 4:37 am #52751Anonymous
