My Teacher said he was the guest artist at Reno jazz festival a couple years ago, and my teacher got a clinic with him. my teacher is so lucky. My teacher was a freshman back then, and now hes a senior, check him out ethan helm. el dorado jazz band, hes awesome for his age! kenny is amazing!
@BeatsNKarats Kenny has gotten into the audience engagement part of music as "entertainment," you can say it's garbage, but he's helping the audience understand the music better, if you look at African music, Brazilian music, everyone was a musician, even the audience. I don't see the problem.
Is there a reason i got so cursed upon a comment? I asked KG for lessons some decade ago, ofc he replied with 'not having time.' He is the top 3 most influential of how i want to sound in terms of edgy rhythmic and altered sax tones.....
no, it's f# harmonic minor. e harmonic minor has a g natural. Here, we have a g#. It' f# harmonic minor. He flattens the 5 for a bluesy effect in some rifs, but he also plays the c# of the scale plenty of times.
Actually, after a second listen, at one point he is playing a G# half-diminished scale. Listen for it G#-A-B-C-D-E-F#-G#. There is alot going on. I don't think you can say he's playing one scale.
@saxbari I've seen Metheny twice and Garrett live over 15 times, so I dunno wtf you are bitching at me for. Every time Garrett comes to Yoshi's I see that show. When Kenny was playing cuts mostly off of his Songbook album he didn't have all this crowd interaction garbage. That's not trolling, that's honesty.
This isn't rap, it's jazz. Don't call out for claps and timings. I hate seeing a show with napa wine garbage b/c of this. Garrett got soft. You made money, now you are eclipsed by betters
Making music with the audience. Beautiful.
what an amazing melody
incredible...love it, love it, love it!!! Thank you for this wonderful music....:)
THAT IS SO SICK WHEN THE CROWD SINGS AND IMPROVS OFF OF THEM
What a gem !!!
This is amazing!!
wow, that was amazing.
this was off of the songbook album great album it got album of year by downbeat back in 97
THIS IS THE JAME MY BOY KENNY GOING IN HARD ON THAT SAX
this live recording is definitely better than on songbook. I really, really hope it doesn't get removed!

Blade was killing on the groove during Garrett's solo!

It's so cool when jazz can translate and get people on their feet. Doesn't happen that often huh
Simply: Fucking Incredible.

@ApatheticVegnagun e octatonic
To be fair, in this case it's mostly pentatonic beastliness.
