I hope one day he'll form a presidential Jazz band. I want him on Sax, Obama on Drums, Nixon's dead body puppeteered on Piano and Jefferson's ghostbusted spirit on Bass.
MrOmnos No, rape. Before he became President. His encounter with the intern was just one incident in a long list of sexually deviant activities for Mr Clinton. He didn't earn the nickname "Slick Willie" for nothing.
Bills like “What key we in?” Proceeds to be a musician and forget about the White House for a min. Love it. I’m a republican but I fucking love this. Wish more presidents did stuff like this at events like this.
WOW. What an improv. This just shows how natural he is at it. I used to play alto sax for a couple of years in middle school, and let me tell you improvisation is not easy.
Damn the way old people talk about Bill's sax skills, I was expecting him to be a lot better. He can play, no lie. But they make it sound like he was some slept on blues virtuoso. This is at best a decent high school jazz band solo
You have to hand it to him for having the guts to get up there with all those great musicians though - not easy to improvise under that kind of scrutiny!
I play sax and once met another sax player who played with Bill Clinton in college. He said Bill was an outstanding sax player back then. It's probably impossible to practice when you're president so he's not at his best but he's pretty good despite not practicing!!
Yes! I met someone who used to play with him in college who- said Bill was a very good horn player. I also heard he recently bought some sheet music so he's back in the saddle again. Go, Bill !! :)
I'm impressed, considering how much time he has to practice. It's clear that he takes it seriously, and that he has some technique. And is that a horn he's borrowing from someone? It's REALLY hard to play a horn you're not used to. They're all very different.
Some tasteful playing too. Man... I gotta say Bill Clinton was the guy who started me on my musical journey. I started on Alto Sax as a kid because I wanted to be like him. hahaha.
Young Joshua Redman is standing next to him. He had won the Thelonious Monk competition a year or two before that. Probably one of the best sax players of our era(along with Chris Potter). And he has to stand there and just listen to this three note solo just because the guy who plays it is the president.
Yury Schleifman it's not a competition friend. I am quite happy with the fact that we had a president who was interested in life enough to want a little extra on the side. He joins these former presidents who also got caught with their pants down: Thomas Jefferson, Warren Harding, Franklin Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower, John Kennedy, & Lyndon Johnson.
Man, Bill was such a cool president. I wouldn't really mind if Hillary was president, but she's such a generic, disconnected politician compared to Bill. He was the man!
You know what's sad about this, how little you know. I'm gonna try to not be insulting to you and just recommend that you learn more and inform yourself about people before you talk shit about "disconnected" . A woman whose actions lead to children receiving health insurance is not fucking "Disconnected" - and btw it was SHE who pushed for that not her husband. A woman who pressured her husband to look at healthcare reform is not fucking disconnected. Jesus.
Can you imagine as a amateur having to play after and next to Joshua Redman and Jimmy Heath. I've never felt stressed performing really but holy crap would I around those guys.
Oh, how I love this video because I love hearing “Wild Bill” play that sax. President Clinton was one cool dude who was a common man who worked for all the people of the United States of America because when it came to race he was color blind & his accomplishments as President were nothing but astounding. Happy Birthday on August 19th to the groovy & magnificent President Bill Clinton. Show your love! Send Cards to White House, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW Washington, DC 20500- Bill will get them.

hehe, "back in the saddle again". You have no idea how appropriate that is. I recently bought a vintage sax to restore and play, after 20 years of not playing. That line could be a theme for the story of my life. It's such a great feeling to be doing something once again, that you loved, but had to stop. It's exactly what I was saying to myself when I managed to get the first few notes out of my "new" 1926 Buescher. :) :) :)
He's GREAT. A friend of mine knew Bill in their college band and he was hot back then. We sax players walk on earth sometimes, when we're not playing. lol

So let me ask you guys in question.
You think YOU could have resisted Bill when he was in office?
Nah
The question is actually could he resist me
Hell nah, Bill was smooth as fuck back then.
No, he was damn too hot back then 😎
No he was a cool guy
"I did not have sex with that saxophone."
+roboham09 amazing xD
"But I did blow on it."
Maybe Bill & Barack should start a band. Call it Run DNC!
Now THAT'S funny ! Cheers !
that's pretty clever
Now I did not. Have. Sexual relations. With that Tenor Sax.
His idea of sexual relations do not include blowing!
Joshua redman literally standing there listening to Bill Clinton on the saxophone
And I think that’s red Rodney next to him too, no?
1:45 HOLY SHIT
I only just realised that today when I looked more closely at who was on stage. So many jazz greats...wow!

WOW. What an improv. This just shows how natural he is at it. I used to play alto sax for a couple of years in middle school, and let me tell you improvisation is not easy.
That’s pretty cool, I wonder how I’ll ever get the chance to play the saxophone in my life. Professionally.
Damn the way old people talk about Bill's sax skills, I was expecting him to be a lot better.
He can play, no lie. But they make it sound like he was some slept on blues virtuoso.
This is at best a decent high school jazz band solo
Very true. Very ordinary player.
I think it's more so that it's impressive how well he plays given that he probably gets no time to practice due to how busy he is/was.
Yeah, it sounded like every note had heavy hesitation. It wasn't bad, but it ok.
You have to hand it to him for having the guts to get up there with all those great musicians though - not easy to improvise under that kind of scrutiny!
And now let's critique your Presidential skills............
if it starts with an "S" and ends in "X" you know bill is good at it
😂😂😂
👍
.. he good at getting “caught “…

He is the greatest sax player to ever hold a public office!
Bill plays cautiously but his choices fit the music...he knows what he's doing and doesn't overstep his limits of the moment!
