Hi Mark, here’s the expurgated version – LOL

M.I. for Alto

Hi Mark, I spent an hour yesterday looking for this 2nd part and it didn’t come up on my U-tube results.
The problem I noticed is that the end bars of the 1st part is chopped off in the video, on all the platforms where it is posted.
It does sound good though. Cheers

Hi Mark
Thanks for the comments and positive motivation. I’ve been repeatedly playing that tune since December last year and it’s still a long way from acceptable.

When I was a lad and misbehaved, my Dad would say to us “Why be difficult, when for a little more effort, you can be totally impossible?”
Therefore to do the ‘impossible’ it must only…[Read more]

Hi sxpoet, I don’t have a net, but I did have to buy a new chair. My old pneumatic adjustable stool kept squeaking loudly when my weight shifted. My new high chair is welded steel tubing and a plastic seat, so no more noises. It allows me to breath better too as my chest isn’t folded from sitting too low. Only my MP3’s are in-ter-net 😉
Cheers Jeff

Hi James, no, I may buy one later to try.

Here’s my attempt at playing the sax, trumpet and piano parts.

Woke Up Clipped

Please don’t throw anything too heavy!

It may be my favourite – Woke Up Clipped. If I can get the emotion correct 😉

Hi sxpoet, It’s a fair recording with good balance between the sax and BT volume.
I think your timing has improved and the sax sounds quite mellow. b^

I’ve been busy with distracting stuff.

Here’s my latest recording.

Ritz Crackers

Just in case you’re wondering about the alien music.

Hi Jake, its quite a long tune to tackle, well done!

Hi Leo, thanks for the tune, much appreciated.

Here’s today’s recording.

Musk Music

My recordings may not be up to scratch, but they keep me motivated to practice.

Hi James, thanks, no it was my 64th on Monday 20th which was why I practised this tune.

Thanks Guys, here’s one for my birthday.

Now I’m nearly flawed

Hi Leo, thanks, that makes much more sense.

Hi Leo, do you know what Woke Up Clipped means?
I think it must be American slang as clipped in UK refers to a haircut.
I wonder if it means waking up in jail?

I’m practising the tune for alto, but getting everthing right is tricky.
If anyone wants the alto version let me know.

Cheers

Hi Leo, I also have a 2nd hand YTS-62 which is an older model. I took it out today to try my tune I’ve been working on for about three weeks. Trying to capture the tune from an MP3 was very difficult but I eventually finished. Perhaps you would like to try it (recent No. 13 Post). It does sound good and the challenging part will be to make it…[Read more]

Hi Leo, very nicely played. One of my favourite tunes.
I must say my YAS62 sounds much better than the YAS26, but the YAS26 is easier to play.
