Jun 8, 2008 - This makes me realize i may feel shitty that i play the keyboards. I want that kind of range of tone. I'm tired of just being loud and soft

MagicRain505 Says:

Jun 18, 2008 - No they aren't squeaks. Since the song Song is in C (I feel like transcribing this masterpiece) He was playing a C5 concert, which surprisingly, he knew he was gonna hit it! Damn! The highest I can play on Alto is an F#4, which is the lydian 5th of the octave below it! He also starts hitting the F5 AND G5 AT THE END. As expected from Sonny to be so amazing, but I never knew he could do THAT. Not even on his milestone piano-less Night in Tunisia recording!

Aug 1, 2008 - Hahah Sonny's sound makes Sanborn's alto sound like a kazoo. Don't get me wrong, I love Sanborn's alto sound and I think it's huge when he plays by himself. But when you put him next to one of the guys with the biggest tenor sounds around ... it just doesn't cut it haha. Great music tho.

Sep 3, 2008 - Respect to the Colossus!

Mukumamy Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - Not from this world. The late Sonny is simply...wow!

scmm42 Says:

Sep 5, 2008 - >> The late Sonny is simply...wow! I agree he's "wow" but he isn't late. In fact he still tours.

kamagloire Says:

Sep 6, 2008 - I saw this guy at the Barbican in London about 10 years ago. Waited an hour at the stage door to shake his BIG hands and get my Silver Album signed. He was old then! Can't believe he's still touring and throwing the long solos out. I saw Ray Charles at the same venue 2-3 weeks later - turns out that was the last chance I would've had to get him. These guys are the founding fathers and while you have the chance, you gotta catch 'em before they're gone.

deinbo Says:

Sep 20, 2008 - He's still alive

PanayotiProductions Says:
