Hiya @Jeff !
Are you the lovely gentleman that had posted a gorgeous air here on site just a few years back and i was really rude to you being at that time and i actually went so far as say to your song sounded tonally like, 3 Blind Mice?! Can you believe it. The audacity!
Please understand i still feel tragically upset about my unconstructive critiscm of your beautiful playing, at the time i did not really understand, nor could i perceive, just how long it really takes to find a reasonable sound from the saxophone what with correct mp placement, opening the throat up, keeping the shoulders back, steady air support from the diaghram, using overertones effectively, applying vibrato, finding a decent reed etc ..
I don’t sleep well, ‘a good conscience is a soft pillow’. It is oft easy to criticize someone else; however when you are pointing your finger at somebody else you are in reality pointing three back at yourself, say.
As a matter of fact my own sax playing is very ratty, much worse than a sick moose. I will post soon to demonstrate. The best sermon is a good example, and, explanations become excuses. Yours in honking out a good tune in any event.
What has 6 eyes but cant see?
3 blind mice.
With sincere apologies,
Mark

James ~ you are the man!
Splendid work old boy, jolly good show.
I will print it out and compare with my list too ..
Thanks from us all mate.
Spiffing, hey what!
Oh ya, Jody Jazz, my dream metal mp if i could only afford one!
JF says great thangs about the Jet in earlier posts
Hi James. Wither goest thou? 🙂
Says Google, Pulling the mouthpiece out on the neck will make the shorter notes like A and above less sharp (flatter) more quickly than it will lower the notes G and below. The end result is a balancing of the shorter and longer notes on the saxophone.
